She Wants Revenge

She Wants Revenge

When Calif. based She Wants Revenge released their debut album back in
early 2006, it fast became apparent that they had created the soundtrack for
the dark and debaucherous on many-a-dance-floors across the nation.

Much like their Electronic Rock fore-fathers; Dave Gahan, Rob Smith and Ian
Curtis
had done so before, She Wants Revenge offered a voice and a rhythm
for scorned lovers, bored housewives, jaded hipsters, gender-benders and
club-kids across the nation, all seductively swaying their hips and pouting
along to the undeniably catchy tunes such as These Things, Out of Control
and the instant cross over hit Tear You Apart.

By retracing the musical footsteps of their childhood, they struck a nerve
in music fans everywhere, with their tales of betrayal, lies,
and deceit. They went on to sell more than 300,000 copies in the USA alone.
The band had realized that music fans craved more than the average love
song, and if they were going to write songs, they wanted to explore the
sides of male-female dynamics that are usually left unexplored and
unexamined. Set to an infectious beat, they decided to sing about things
you shouldn’t do, and the things one does when no one is looking.

One song that encapsulated all of the above was their first single
“Tear You Apart”, it soon became a Top 5 Alt. Radio Single and was one of
the biggest hits and radio spun tunes of 2006. Joaquin Phoenix went on to
direct the video for the single which gained heavy rotation on all the
leading networks, reached the homes of millions and secured a credible place
in most critics and fans heads and almost everyone’s record collections,
myspace page and dance floors around.

Shortly after, they were invited to share a several dates with idol Brit
pioneers Depeche Mode, in a surreal and symbolic passing of the baton, She
Wants Revenge
began to realize that the music they had lovingly written was
beginning to reach a far larger audience than they had ever imagined. They
went on to appear on all leading late night television shows including
Conan, Letterman, Kimmel and Leno along with tours with Bloc Party, The
Kills, and Placebo most recently.

Now it’s their second round, and with the upcoming album release of “This
Is Forever” (Geffen)
out on Oct 9th - Justin Warfield and musical
partner “Adam 12” Bravin have done what few new bands have managed to do -
to not only beat the sophomore slump, but to have recorded an album that
some would argue actually beats their impressive debut.

This Is Forever continues where their self-titled debut left off, a
figurative morning after to the dance of the night before. Still continuing
on the same path of creating thought provoking and emotional dance music,
the album deals in the familiar themes of love, loss, and betrayal, yet
somehow even darker in tone, with beats that bang even harder, and if it's
possible, even catchier songs...a tall feat, but one they welcomed with open
arms. With no intention of playing it safe this time out, the guys have
crafted a challenging and compelling album that they are proud to present to
their loyal fans and the uninitiated alike.
