NOISE THERAPY
SET TO LAUNCH FALL TOUR WITH ILL NINO, OTEP AND 3rd STRIKE
NOVEMBER 24 IN NEW YORK CITY
AS FIRST SINGLE “GET UP” IMPACTS ACTIVE ROCK
As NOISE THERAPY impact rock radio with their single “Get Up,” the group have been tapped to join Ill Nino, Otep and 3rd Strike on a fall club tour of the Midwest and South kicking off November 24 in New York City. This trek follows the group’s early fall dates with Flaw, The Color Red and 3rd Strike.
“Get Up”–the first single from NOISE THERAPY’S Redline Entertainment debut album TENSION–has harnessed radio adds at stations across the U.S. including: WAAF Boston, WRIF Detroit, WQBK Albany, KIOZ San Diego, WNOR Norfolk, KPOI Honolulu, WCC Hartford and WZTA in Miami. The song was the #2 most added at Active Rock this week behind System Of A Down. Recently, the single jumped to #36 on FMQB’s Metal chart, #27 on CMJ’s Loud Rock and Loud Rock Crucial Spins charts, while holding at #14 on Album Network’s Aggro Chart.
Produced by Mike Plotnikoff (KISS, Fear Factory, Cranberries) and a team including, Igor (YES keyboardist), Mike Wanchic (John Mellencamp guitarist), Rhys Fulber (Frontline Assembly, Fear Factory), TENSION captures the ferocity of the band’s live show as well as their infectious backbeats and power chords. In a recent article, Michael Smith from the San Angelo Standard Times noted: “…Tension captures the band’s live sound…It is that intensity that drives Noise Therapy’s journey through the ever-changing world of modern music (October 10, 2002).”
“We listen to everything from metal and hardcore, to hip-hop, electronic and punk,” says founding bassist Rob Thiessen. The result: a sound that’s melodic and alluring yet rhythmic and adrenalized.
With their high-velocity riffs and explosive live show, NOISE THERAPY–DAVE OTTOSON (vocals), BOBBY JAMES (drums), KAI (guitar), ROB THIESSEN (bass) and JAMES F (keyboards)–are expanding their fan base in the U.S. through relentless touring. “We’ve got a crazy live show. There are always a lot of injuries onstage, bodies getting thrown around and people going crazy,” says Thiessen. “Canada knows our reputation as a live band, now it’s time to show America.”
