LEEWAY Guitarist Joins Forces With Reunited DEPT. C

November 21, 2005

LEEWAY guitarist Mike Gibbons has joined forces with the reunited DEPT. C on their new EP, entitled "The Resurrection", due in January 2006.

Commented the band: "For those that don't know who we are and where we come from, please read and learn. It was the late 1980s into the early 1990s, the scene was New York City/CBGB, L'Amour/Brooklyn, and the East Coast. The guys in DEPT. C were into all styles of music. Influenced not just by the music they listened to, but life in the urban environment they lived in. A band that was hard to categorize with its metal riffs, hardcore edge and pounding drums. They did manage to find a fan base that was a mix of skinheads, metalheads, skaters and punk rockers. Everyone all seemed to relate in one way or another. With the band touching base on everything from war, homelessness, healthcare and mental illness, DEPT. C found themselves right smack in the middle of the crossover movement, a scene that is still alive today and growing larger then life." DEPT. C are also working on a DVD, entitled "Into the Resurrection", which will feature vintage live performances CBGBs, L'Amour, Onstage, Chatter Box, City Limits, and Escapades, among other venues.
