IT DIES TODAY: New Music Posted Online

August 15, 2006

Buffalo, New York's IT DIES TODAY has made new music available from its upcoming album, "Sirens", which hits stores October 3 on Trustkill Records. The song "Sacre Coeur", named after a famous church in Paris which literally means "Sacred Heart", can be steamed online at this location. Vocalist Nick Brooks says, "The song centers around the theme of marriage and infidelity. That's where the church comes in; I hopefully plan on proposing to someone there someday." A second track, "A Constant Reminder", will be available August 21 via the band's MySpace page. "The title is pretty self explanatory," Brooks said about the second song. "It's a constant reminder of how much I disliked a certain person at the time; it's a pretty pissed off song."

"Sirens" is the highly anticipated follow-up to IT DIES TODAY's 2004 Trustkill debut, "The Caitiff Choir", which has sold more than 75,000 copies in the U.S., according to Nielesen SoundScan. Produced by Gggarth Richardson (RAGE AGAINST THE MACHIN, RISE AGAINST, ATREYU),"Sirens" is described in a press release as "a deafending explosion of brutal heavy metal guitars, driving melodies and militant drum attacks." Brooks says, "The whole album has very dark overtones. It's everything that has changed in my life since the last album and I believe that thematically, everyone no matter who you are or your beliefs can relate to these issues."

IT DIES TODAY has just finished up their run on the Strhess Tour, sponsored by popular poster artist Derek Hess, which also featured SHADOWS FALL and POISON THE WELL. "We had our share of difficulties," explains Brooks. "The drives were long but the shows were great."
