ATREYU: Video Interview With TRAVIS MIGUEL Available

August 27, 2007

ATREYU guitarist Travis Miguel took some time to chat with Underground Video Television (UVTV) recently during an "off" date on the Family Values tour in Johnson City, NY. Travis talks about how he became interested in music, learning to play bass then guitar, his childhood musical influences, meeting other members of ATREYU and becoming part of the band, and how the group signed its first record deal with Victory Records. Watch the interview at this location.

ATREYU's new album, "Lead Sails Paper Anchor", is scheduled for release tomorrow (August 28).

To celebrate the release of "Lead Sails Paper Anchor", ATREYU has scheduled two special in-store events for its hometown fans. On August 28, the band will be in Irvine, CA at the Irvine Spectrum and will be signing copies of its new album starting at 5:00 p.m. Then on August 30, the band heads down to Horton Plaza in San Diego, CA for another signing at the Hot Topic store. Fans that purchase the record in advance of street date at the Irvine location will get a wristband that will guarantee them a meet-and-greet with ATREYU and the same applies to the San Diego fans that purchase the record on August 28.

ATREYU recorded "Lead Sails Paper Anchor" this spring with producer John Feldmann (THE USED, GOOD CHARLOTTE) who worked with the band to create their most infectious, ambitious and musically challenging disc yet. While the band's juxtaposition of hardcore-influenced chaos and rock-influenced melody is still present, the gulf between the two styles is diminished, making the passages flow in a smoother and more naturalistic manner. "Lead Sails Paper Anchor" was mixed by Andy Wallace (NIRVANA, SLIPKNOT, LINKIN PARK).
