VAEDA
CONTINUES U.S. TOUR
AS THEY PREPARE FOR AUGUST 22 RELEASE OF
‘STATE OF NATURE’ DEBUT ALBUM
ON PLAYTYME RECORDS
August
15, 2006 -- The New York City trio known as VAEDA has announced
another set of U.S. tour dates to get fans ready for their
debut album, STATE OF NATURE, which is due out August
22 on Playtyme Records, distributed by ADA, starting with
a CD release party in Washington, DC at The Red & The
Black that same day. Also that day as well as the rest of
the week, America Online will be hosting a Listening Party,
streaming the album in its entirety.
STATE
OF NATURE shines on two fronts: first as a collection
of individually dynamic songs, and second as a gripping collective
of songs, each playing a part in shaping a multi-faceted listening
experience. “All For You” is purely pop, featuring
melodic choruses and pining music that could seamlessly co-exist
on the landscape of modern rock radio. But VAEDA aren’t
your little brother’s radio-friendly band. Drawing from
an amalgam of influences that range from Nirvana and Tool
to Living Colour and Pennywise, each plays a part in the evolution
of the band’s sound.
A video for “All For You” can currently be found
on the band’s website, www.vaeda.com, Myspace page,
www.myspace.com/vaeda, as well as YouTube.
In
an early review, Richard Flores of Fussmagazine.com
praised:
“VAEDA
has (sic) captured their music and turned it into a form of
art. The introductory song ‘Money’ is an excellent
upbeat tune with soaring melodies to lure the listener into
the album. ‘All For You’ and ‘Battle Song’
both have a radio-friendly rock feel to them, with hard-edged
guitar, complex composition aspects, and expressive lyrical
hooks to keep you ready for the next tune. The tracks ‘Jesus
Rides the Subway,’ ‘Cacophony,’ and ‘1.25’
show the more mellow side of VAEDA, revealing strong feelings
and distinct musical emotions. All of STATE OF NATURE
is very solid throughout, an album easy to listen to completely
through uninterrupted. Making their first major entrance onto
the music scene, they are undeniably cementing themselves
into a position for future endeavors.”
