INVITED TO OPEN FOR CREED ON REUNION TOUR
FIRST SINGLE “CHEMICAL INFATUATION” HEADS TO RADIO AUGUST 12
ON HEELS OF VIDEO LAUNCH ON AOL MUSIC
Vancouver-based, New Zealand-bred hard rockers LIKE A STORM–who strike a balance between warm electronics and massive hard rock–have been invited to support Creed on 18 dates on their reunion tour, from August 6 through September 2. The trek will include stops at Nikon @ Jones Beach in Wantagh, NY, Nissan Pavilion in Bristow, VA and First Midwest Bank Amphitheatre in Chicago, IL.
On August 12, LIKE A STORM will release the darkly infectious song “Chemical Infatuation” to radio. Described by the band as “a heavy and ambient journey,” the single is taken from the group’s forthcoming debut CD THE END OF THE BEGINNING, out later this year via the Prospect Park label.
LIKE A STORM recently debuted the video for “Chemical Infatuation” on AOL Music. Directed by David Yarovesky (Gwen Stefani, Rihanna, 50 Cent, T-Pain), the memorably surreal and twisted video about a serial killer can be viewed here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2ukhUJ_KHtw.
On THE END OF THE BEGINNING–helmed by multi-platinum producer/mixer/engineer Mike Plotnikoff (Three Days Grace/My Chemical Romance/ Buckcherry)–the quartet stir up a torrent of infectious hard rock, conjuring a dynamic rock sound that's simultaneously ethereal and edgy. The disc is an avalanche of captivating choruses and hard-hitting grooves.
LIKE A STORM–CHRIS BROOKS (vocals/guitar/programming/ didgeridoo), MATT BROOKS (vocals/guitar/programming), KENT BROOKS (bass/vocals/ programming) and THOMAS KARANASOS (drums)–formed in 2005 in their native New Zealand and moved to Vancouver soon after to pursue their rock n’ roll dream.
