(PR) Perhaps there is no other band on the planet that the word 'screamo' fits best than for Of Hearts and Shadows. Hailing from San Diego, California, the group - which includes singer Scott Bixby, guitarists Ricky Vazquez and Ian Archer, bassist Isaiah Herevia, and drummer Matt Williams - is readying the release of their first-ever full-length, 'Touching Base with a Chainsaw,' which is one of the first releases for the newly-launched Tyburn label. "We had two years worth of writing for this album," explains Williams about the sessions. "We were able to knock it out in three weeks - we didn't have to sit and write a bunch of stuff."

With a scheduled release date of October 24th, 'Touching Base with a Chainsaw' contains countless hard-hitting highlights, including the prog metal-esque "Make Sure You Tell Your Friends," as well as "Pretty for Nostalgia," which shows that Bixby is one of the more intense screamers in all of hard rock today.

"This band is about the future," explains Vazquez. "Five young guys who appreciate the music that came before, play the music of today, but are going to keep creating and stepping outside the box into the future. Music is the last free thing left to do. There are no limits, and that is going to allows us to grow with every album we put out." And as evidenced by their debut, Of Hearts and Shadows are certainly off to a good start. - Check em out here
