Description
Late for the Sky is a reinvention of sorts of the 'RUMBLE Syndicate', a touring staple on the east coast for many years before disbanding in 2002, a time the band recalls fondly. Singer D2e (pronounced Double E) elaborates: "We lived and rehearsed in a house in the city. We would practice, promote, flyer, etc. during the week and tour on weekends. When we played locally we had after-parties that went till dawn at the band house we dubbed the Rumbledome. Logging over 200 live dates per year, the band amassed a respectable following and clocked 4 independent releases on Pseudo Records. (check the RUMBLE Syndicate page on cdbaby.com for availability)
In 2004 D2e and guitarist Skunk began a songwriting stint that lasted 6 months. New-comer Wes Sanford was added to the fold shortly after. After a name and bass player change, RUMBLE Syndicate bass player Gutterboy completed the lineup in 2005.
What makes Late for the Sky stand out is the songwriting. The singer/guitar duo harkens back to Page/Plant or even Osbourne/Rhoads. Its as if each is trying to push each other to that next level on every track. Skunk interjects: [the songs] translate great to the live stage, are radio-worthy and get better with repeat listens. The album holds it's own through every track.
Working once again with acclaimed producer Anthony J. Resta, (Collective Soul, Duran Duran, Megadeth, Nuno, Satellite Party) the debut CD In Plain Sight was released in November of 2006.
The album has a modern sound and feel, yet manages to intertwine Classic Rock/Hard Rock spattering throughout each track. This makes it hard to pigeon-hole Late for the Sky in todays format-obsessed music industry.
Rock? Yes. Hard Rock? You Bet. Metal? Sure.
Just when you think you get any given track, the band throws in an unexpected twist. Whether its the 2 handed finger tapping technique that fills the chorus of So FarSo Wrong or the Black Crowes-esque intro that slowly morphs into the album's (arguably) heaviest track Get Born. It's not two distinct styles fusing together as rap & metal did in the 90s, mind you. Its more akin to the way artists like Zeppelin and Aerosmith expanded on the Blues to create the rock of the early 70s.
Industry insiders with advance listens have drawn parallels to contemporary outfits like Staind and Audioslave as well perennials such as Ozzy and Van Halen.
A music video was shot for the lead-off single "Letting Go". The video was directed by Paul Concemi, who did the Seether DVD One Cold Night among others. Look for a sample of the completed video on the bands official website www.Late4thesky.com before it hits cable outlets and websites in early 2007.
The band will be playing dates to promote In Plain Sight throughout 2007. Check Late4thesky.com & Pollstar.com for dates in your area!
