Porn On Beta's second album 'Brand New Road To Nowhere' was released today! You can download it in it's entirety for free in mp3 format or download the ISO image and burn the perfect copy of the CD for yourself! Porn On Beta highly encourages file sharing of their music.
EBM BAND PORN ON BETA RELEASES SECOND ALBUM - 'BRAND NEW ROAD TO NOWHERE'
VANCOUVER, Canada - July 5, 2004 - Porn On Beta releases their second album titled 'Brand New Road To Nowhere' as a free download from their official website http://www.pornonbeta.com/
Porn On Beta's 'Brand New Road To Nowhere' web release is available in its entirety from the website in unrestricted mp3 format. Porn On Beta fully encourages sharing and distribution of this album and all other music that Porn On Beta makes.
With James O'Brien taking the helm on vocals and Shawn McGillivray on guitars, 'Brand New Road To Nowhere' tells a story of evolution of the Porn On Beta sound. The cohesive diversity of this new album also demonstrates the maturation of the lyric and song writing by Corey Hobbis. Upbeat songs such as 'Disconnected', 'SuperUtopia' and 'Rewind' are complemented by the soulful melodies from 'A Different Sky', 'Cryptic' and 'Divisions' creating a balanced flow throughout 'Brand New Road'.
The tour to support the album will take Porn On Beta through the northwest Americas, stopping in Vancouver, Calgary, Edmonton, Seattle and Victoria in late 2004. Following the web release of A 'Brand New Road To Nowhere', an extended CD will be available for purchase with three bonus tracks ('Crystal', 'Fake ID's and Felonies' and 'Sentiment') that are not available on the web release. The extended CD will also be followed up by a remix album by artists such Halorazer and vo1d/diGitaLia.

Despite problems with the audio monitors on stage we played a six song set at the Playdium yesterday. We had four videographers and a photographer there to document the show and I should have the photographs up soon as they're developed. Thanks to all the people that bought CD's and cheered us on. Channel 10 Now TV was there to document the event and interviewed us after the show. I'll try to let everyone know the interview will be on or to try and get it here for download.
We are endlessly working on new songs for everyone! We are cranking out one every couple of weeks we just need to get all the members into the studio to record their parts and the songs will be playing through your speakers.

For some reason mp3.com has completely messed up our download site for our songs so you can find some FULL mp3's in our audio section.
Porn On Beta is now back in the studio and have layed down all the drums, keys and guitars for a number of new songs. Vocals and bass will be following shortly and then mixing, so keep an eye open for these songs. There will be multiple remixes of some of the songs as well.

- Shooting for the music video of "Suburban Cowboy" was delayed over the winter season and should resume in late spring. There are two versions of the video planned. The first version being the normal album version and a special Sean Kennedy "Rant" mix for the more adventurous. Also I just discovered while listening to the station that the online station Digital Gunfire now has Porn On Beta in their rotation, thanks guys! I also just found out we're in rotation on DisRadio as well.

- Porn on Beta is currently seeking the perfect place to have its CD release party and is working on 3 or 4 new songs that do not appear on the album including two cover songs. Production is done on two of these songs in preparation for the live show and the mp3 mixdown will hopefully be available for download after we lay some vocals on them in the studio.
The feature on Dopamine on the 25th was great and I'd like to thank Stoicite for helping promote the band! I should have that available for download as well in short order.
