The Attack Premiere 2013 Record Store Day Tour Documentary
Announce Second US Tour w/ The Misfits Beginning This Week, feat Dates w/ The FU’s, Total Chaos, The Dickies and More!
In support of their recently released Record Store Day-exclusive EP “Rise Sing Deliver,” released in conjunction with celebrated Florida punk label Paper + Plastick Records, Orlando street punk and hardcore band THE ATTACK is announcing a second string of US tour dates with friends The Misfits,taking the bands to both coasts, including stops along the way in Boston on Halloween night where the two will be performing alongside local punk legends The FU’s, Austin, TX performing a late night Fun Fun Fun Fest appearance with Total Chaos, and two LA dates with DI and The Dickies.
Says guitarist Brad Palkevich, “Jerry Only and Dez Cadena are punk rock from day one. We are really excited to join them on tour a second time. These guys represent everything that got us into music in the first place. DIY, carry the torch, never say die Punk rock from a time when no one bitched about who sang or played better. Just people doing exactly what they want, playing the music they want from the heart and not giving a fuck about what anyone has to say. Make no mistake this is the punk rock Misfits tour.”
In addition, the band recently premiered their amazingly well produced Record Store Day Tour Documentary, which captures the band’s six-city, one-day Florida tour in support of their latest release. Says Palkevich, “We support Record Store Day because Record Store Day supports and promotes underground music, independent businesses and vinyl records. Three things everyone needs more of.”
About The Attack:
” For devotees on either side… …the Attack make us realize that there’s more in common than divergent between traditional punk rock and hardcore.” – mxdwn.com
“…this quartet delivers the kind of vintage melodic hardcore that will take true punkers right back to the days of CBGB’s Sunday matinees…” – Pop Matters
“…Florida-based group that intentionally straddles the line between classic hardcore and old school melodic street punk.” – Metal Sucks
“…turn-of-the-century melodic punk/hardcore.” – Punknews
“If the Attack is nostalgic for anything, then, it’s not a sound, but an attitude that three chords, a six-pack and a fire in your belly is all you need to overthrow the system.” – The Orlando Weekly
…’some honest, true to the cause punk rock…” – Exclaim!
The Attack brings Punk back to basics; short, fast riffing songs about the social, music, and media driven politics of today. The simplicity of punk has been lost on a divided underground driven more by fashion and ruled by icons that have become the same rock stars the punk movement rebelled against in the seventies. Across the country everything Punk, from all ages shows to facebook pages, has become a popularity contest that defies the original intent of the alternative music scene.
The Attack is ruled by a DIY ethos and driven by a goal to re-unite the punks and skins and hardcore kids under the same underground flag. The Attack’s lyrics are true shot from all sides anthems. The Attack never panders to one political party or music scene forming an opinion, agenda and sound of its own.
