Laugh in Feb |
Press Release reports: When tragedy strikes,
people can do one of two things; dwell on it or use it as an inspiration
to make themselves stronger. Stuart, Floridas punk rock five-piece, Last
Laugh, have survived a roller coaster of personal, social and political
unrest, only to emerge stronger than ever by finding solace in music. Channeling
everything they have into No Regrets, Last Laughs appropriately titled
sophomore album, the band has done more than create music, theyve become
a voice that echoes the feelings of Americas youth.
Recorded over the past two years No Regrets
is a breakneck punk rock power trip that runs through a gamut of emotions
from sorrow and frustration to anger and introspection. Inspired by the
truly moving artists that have come before them, No Regrets is an introspective
look into the thoughts and feelings of todays youth dealing with the personal,
social and political issues that affect everyone. The CD is set for release
on Suburban Noize Records on February 21st, 2006.[see full story for more]-
