- Release Notes ------------------------------------------------------------- -

Its dirty, decadent, delicious, and danceable. Its uncontrollable,
uncontainable, and about to launch itself out of your speakers. Get ready to
get catapulted into musical chaos, cause THIS IS A SHAKEDOWN!

Barreling out of the Cleveland music scene, this fresh new music act took a
plethora of influences and made a hot, steamy, gumbo of a record that is
boiling out of the pot. Taking pieces of industrial, punk, metal, goth,
techno, R&B, and dance music, this electro-rock band is releasing their debut
album Love Kills on May 5 through Reversed Image Unlimited.

Launched in 2008, THIS IS A SHAKEDOWN!s Brandon Zano (vocals/guitar), Daniel
Lee (bass/synth), Stephen Nicholson (drums), and Justin Nyilas
(keyboards/programmer) blend wild electro-groove with heavy rock. Known for
notoriously riotous live sets, THIS IS A SHAKEDOWN!s music gets your blood
pumping, your heart pounding, and your body shaking. Tracks like Circles,
You Make Me Wanna, and Cant Stop are instant sparks, electrifying dance
floors and charging the psyche to remember those groovy hooks. They even took
Frank Sinatras My Funny Valentine and transformed it into a slinky, sexy
ballad suitable for a punk rock prom.

Multi-platinum award-winning producer/engineer Michael Seifert is at the
production helm on this project. Seifert tapped producer/engineer Sean Beavan
(best known for mixing and producing music by Nine Inch Nails, Marilyn
Manson, System of a Down, and Slayer) to mix the album. Digging into these
ground-breaking roots, Seifert and Beavan bring that dark magic to THIS IS A
SHAKEDOWN!s already unique sound.

All around, Love Kills is a mash-up, mind-trip album busting at the seams
with energy and innovation! Its on the way to a stereo, dance hall, or punk
club near you. Prepare for the SHAKEDOWN!
