Former A PERFECT MURDER Members Release New MODERN CRIMES Demo Track

September 17, 2007

MODERN CRIMES, the new band featuring former A PERFECT MURDER guitarist Carl Bouchard and drummer Yan Chausse along with bassist Luc Verville, singer Frank Pellerin and guitarist Kevin Lemire, has posted a new demo track, "Class of '98", on its MySpace page. Video footage from the recording sessions can be viewed below.

The members of MODERN CRIMES previously issued the following statement explaining how the band came together:

"After a lot of torments, a long lay off from playing all together and a lot of B,S., we started to hang out all together again. We all wanted to do something together again but with A PERFECT MURDER still active and working on a new recording and ACES AND EIGHTS playing some shows here and there and was kinda difficult to find the time to get together and jam some stuff. But it was seriously bugging us a lot, we wanted to jam together again [as soon as possible] and see what's going to happen. So, on a Sunday afternoon we called Yan and tell him that we were going back to our good old practice space and have fun. We knew that jamming some old A PERFECT MURDER stuff would be a good therapy for all of us. We just nailed some 'Unbroken' and 'Cease to Suffer' stuff, songs that some of us had not played in over three years. It felt fucking awesome for all of us. After that jam session, we talked a lot about having a new band together. We also talked about the direction we wanted to take with this new band. So with A PERFECT MURDER done and ACES AND EIGHTS on some kind of break we decided to have this band our main project. We started right away to write songs and let Bouch work his magic again. This new band means a lot of things for all of us. It's going to be different from what we have done in the past, for sure. We should enter the studio in late August to record a couple of songs. We can't wait to get back on stage and play live together again."

Upcoming MODERN CRIMES shows:

Nov. 24 - Chevalier de Colombs - Jonquiere, Quebec
Dec. 06 - Le Box Office - Drummondville, Quebec
