Rancid Signals Return With LET THE DOMINOES FALLTHEIR FIRST IN SIX YEARS AND MOST TOPICAL TO DATE GET THE RANCID WIDGET; BE THE FIRST TO HEAR THEIR NEW SINGLE "LAST ONE TO DIE": http://www.myspace.com/rancid SUMMER TOUR WITH RISE AGAINST KICKS OFF JUNE 4 Seminal punk band Rancid - Tim Armstrong (guitar/vocals), Lars Frederiksen (guitar/vocals), Matt Freeman (bass/vocals), and Branden Steineckert (drums) - have set June 2nd for the release of Let The Dominoes Fall (Hellcat/Epitaph), their first studio album in six years. The platinum-selling band recorded at George Lucas' Skywalker Sound Studio, with production by Epitaph Records founder/Bad Religion guitarist Brett Gurewitz. Let The Dominoes Fall features nineteen new songs, all written by Rancid. Special guest and Rock & Roll Hall of Famer Booker T contributes Hammond B3 organ on one track, "Up To No Good." "The crew is back doing what we do best," says Armstrong. "We approached every element of this record as a team, and the result is my favorite Rancid record to date." It's also their most topical. From the unflinching observations of "This Place," "Lulu" and "Locomotive," all of which presage the current economic meltdown, to "The Bravest Kids" which rails against media's kid-glove treatment of the Iraq war, and the mostly acoustic "Civilian Ways," inspired by the soldier's journey of Armstrong's brother to Iraq and back home again, Let The Dominoes Fall feels timely, adamant and alive. "Last One To Die," the first single from the new album, will premiere on April 7 via a widget available now on Rancid's myspace page. Fans can register to get a personal embed code and then spread the widget to other sites. Every time someone enters valid info into the widget a point will be allotted. The twenty-five people with the most points will receive a pair of free tickets to see Rancid on tour this summer with Rise Against. For a complete itinerary click here. Let The Dominoes Fall is Rancid's seventh album and first studio release since 2003's Indestructible, which reached #15 on the Billboard Top 200. That album inspired The Los Angeles Times to hail Rancid as "one of the most popular and enduring of American punk bands," while Rolling Stone called them "brutally exuberant."

Epitaph Signs Pop Punk Powerhouse Set Your GoalsEPITAPH SIGNS POP-PUNK POWERHOUSE SET YOUR GOALS Set Your Goal’s Highly Anticipated Sophomore Album Due Out in July Epitaph Records is proud to announce the signing of Bay Area pop-punk crew Set Your Goals with plans to release their sophomore album on July 21st. The band recently wrapped up recording with Mike Green (Paramore, The Matches) and will be hitting the road with labelmates New Found Glory on a cross-country tour. “Of all our options, Epitaph was our first pick and we're very excited about having a great team of people behind us who will give this record the push we know it deserves,” said singer Matt Wilson. “We've put a lot of time into this and it's reassuring to see that they believe in it as much as we do. The staff is very enthusiastic about working with our ideas and there is a dedication to our band here that we've never felt from any other label.” Born out of the Bay Area punk scene, Set Your Goals released an EP in 2006 and their critically acclaimed, fan favorite full length, <i>Mutiny!</i>, later the same year. Immediately grabbing the attention of their fellow bands and fans, the group would go on to tour with the likes of Alexisonfire, Anti Flag and Saves The Day over the next few years. In 2007 the band was featured on the Punk Goes Acoustic 2 compilation and in 2008 they recorded Lil Jon’s “Put Yo Hood Up” for the Punk Goes Crunk compilation. With fan anticipation for the group’s sophomore full length at an all time high, Set Your Goals have joined forces with punk’s most established label, and have their sights set on making their best album yet. Set Your Goals/New Found Glory Tour Dates: 25 Mar – Marquee Theater, Tempe AZ 26 Mar – House of Blues, San Diego CA 27 Mar – House of Blues, Anaheim CA 28 Mar – Avalon, Hollywood CA 29 Mar – Grand Ballroom @ the Regency, San Francisco CA 31 Mar – Hawthorne Theater, Portland OR 01 Apr – The Showbox, Seattle WA 02 Apr – Knitting Factory, Boise ID 03 Apr – In the Venue, Salt Lake City UT 04 Apr – Gothic Theater, Denver CO 06 Apr – Palladium Showroom, Dallas TX 07 Apr – Emo’s, Austin TX 08 Apr – Warehouse Live, Houston TX 10 Apr – House of Blues, Lake Buena Vista FL 11 Apr – Jannus Landing, St Petersburg FL 13 Apr – Revolution, Ft Lauderdale FL 15 Apr – House of Blues, Myrtle Beach FL 16 Apr – Amos’ Southend, Charlotte NC 17 Apr – Sonar, Baltimore MD 18 Apr – The Trocadero, Philadelphia PA 19 Apr – House of Blues, Cleveland OH 20 Apr – Bogart’s, Cincinnati OH 22 Apr – Peoples Court, Des Moines IA 23 Apr – Myth Nightclub, St Paul MN 24 Apr – The Rave, Milwaukee WI 25 Apr – House of Blues, Chicago IL 26 Apr – Royal Oak Music Theater, Royal Oak MI 28 Apr – Phoenix Concert Theater, Toronto ONT 29 Apr – Webster Theater, Hartford CT 30 Apr – House of Blues, Boston MA 03 May – Newport Music Hall, Colombus OH 05 May – Egyptian Room, Indianapolis IN 06 May – The Pageant, St Louis MO 07 May – Granada Theater, Lawrence KS 08 May – Diamond Ballroom, Oklahoma City OK 09 May – Sunshine Theater, Albuquerque NM 10 May – Rialto Theater, Tucson AZ For More Information: www.Epitaph.com www.myspace.com/setyourgoals

March 4, 2009Settle To Release AT HOME WE ARE TOURISTS On May 19Epitaph Expands Sound with Brilliant Indie Rock Debut Settle will release their smart, attention-grabbing debut At Home We Are Tourists on May 19th via Epitaph Records. Produced by Adam Lasus (Clap Your Hands Say Yeah, Army Navy, Yo La Tengo) and mixed by Ken Andrews (Jimmy Eat World, Pete Yorn, BRMC), the Easton PA quartet’s first full-length album is a pop dreamscape that deftly combines indie and dance rock that is alternately ironic and biting and deeply emotional and deliberative. Citing influences from Elvis Costello to the Liars and inspiration from art to social networking sites, Settle’s At Home We Are Tourists illustrates both the outlandish collection of pop culture that moves the band and an unusual ability to craft a remarkably accomplished first record. Five years of writing, revising and discarding allowed the band to amass 12 songs that range from fuzzed-out rockers to indie gems to synth-driven fetes that flow seamlessly one into the other to form a perfectly cohesive whole. Standout tracks like the evocative “On the Prowl,” the guitar-driven homage to the band’s roots “Affinity For My Hometown,” “ISO: 40yr M W/Kids Seeks 26yr F WO/Kids,” and the exuberant “I Saw An Inferno Once” create one of the most interesting, unique and unforgettable debuts in recent memory. Stay tuned for touring information and updates. At Home We Are Tourists Tracklisting: 1. Grand Marshall's Mooncloth Robes 2. Naked At A Family Function 3. Rite Of Passage 4. ISO: 40yr M W/Kids Seeks 26yr F WO/Kids 5. Affinity For My Hometown 6. I Saw An Inferno Once 7. Murder 8. Sunday, Morning After 9. On the Prowl 10. Kick. Win! 11. Dance Rock Is The New Pasture 12. Into The Mind Of Those Who Commit Desperate Acts While Under The Influence Of Others
