Glossary

The phrase “Long Live All of Us” is the title of Glossary’s seventh full-length album, but it’s also meant as an all-inclusive homage to humanity. Frontman Joey Kneiser says, in light of all the bad things happening in the world, the band just wanted to make a positive record. Long Live All of Us allowed the band from Murfreesboro, Tennessee, to take their influences farther than ever before, adding piano, haunting pedal steel, R&B-influenced horns and more to their own style of romanticized rock & roll.

arrangements on his record "Handsome Devil")"
- Kevin Bronson/ Jeff Miller, LA TIMES "Full of bawdy horns and lusty percussion, Jim Bianco's "Handsome Devil" is something of a naughty musical....."

Manic

Ryan Green - drums Paul Gross - vocals/keyboards Zane Smythe - guitars/keyboards Nate Perry - bass/backup vocals Believe it or not, Manic didn’t want to get signed to Suretone, the new label of ex-Geffen president Jordan Schur. Not because they had something against them but they didn’t want their creativity stifled by a corporation. This band, who crafts lush, layered pop rock, wanted to do things on their terms and to be the masters of their own destiny.

Pusher

Too volatile to last more than a few months before imploding, Louisville’s Pusher formed after vocalist Steve Sindoni split from the ranks of Breather Resist and formed a new destruction unit. Pusher quickly impregnated fans across the eastern half of North America with their diseased blasts of perfectly orchestrated chaos. Soon after recording their full length album, the band ground to a halt... Leaving a brief document of their short-lived, yet incredibly exciting and incendiary, existence.
