WAR TAPES
TO APPEAR ON ABC FAMILY TV SERIES “GREEK” JUNE 15
VIDEO FOR “MIND IS UGLY” AVAILABLE NOW
In other news, WAR TAPES have recently made available the video, directed by newcomer Jon Danovic, for their single “Mind Is Ugly.” Both melodic and thrashing, the song is about inner turmoil and how people often lash out at those who love and care about them the most while protecting others further away. The video encompasses the self-proclaimed “heart-quaking doom pop” that best describes the band and allows a glimpse into the cathartic live energy that possesses the band. Danovic will join up with the band again in the coming weeks to shoot the video for “Dreaming Of You,” the lead single from The Continental Divide.
WAR TAPES–Neil Popkin (singer/rhythm guitar), his sister Becca Popkin (bass), Matt Bennett (lead guitar) and William Mohler (drums)–has an innate knack for crafting timeless melodies, anthemic choruses and an arena-ready sound that has already erupted from the stages of The Fillmores in San Francisco and NYC, The Bowery Ballroom, The Warfield and The Wiltern–and, of course, epic shows at dangerously overcrowded warehouse parties and punk clubs that have become legendary for the passion of the band and their audiences. Upcoming Los Angeles appearances for the band include:
Date | Venue | Location | |
4/24 | 740 | Downtown | w/ She Wants Revenge |
5/2 | Downtown 21 | Downtown | |
5/27 | Club Moscow @ Bordners | Hollywood | The Continental Divide CD release party |
