February 18, 2011

Behind-the-scenes footage from the video shoot for "Conversion", the new single from the Knoxville, Tennessee-based female-fronted metal/hardcore act STRAIGHT LINE STITCH, can be viewed below. The clip was filmed with directed by Dale "Rage" Resteghini, who has helmed over 550 music videos since 2003, including clips for such metal bands as MUDVAYNE, HATEBREED, ANTHRAX and SHADOWS FALL. Rage has also helmed videos for some of the biggest names in the hip hop world, including Lil Wayne, Diddy, Snoop Dog and Ice Cube.

Commented singer Alexis Brown: "'Conversion' is one of my favorite songs on the record because it's about shedding old skin and becoming a whole another being. I'm really stoked that it's the first single off our new record."

STRAIGHT LINE STITCH's sophomore album, "The Fight Of Our Lives", will be released on March 22 via eOne Music. The follow-up to 2008's "When Skies Wash Ashore" was produced and mixed by the Grammy Award-nominated producer Johnny K (DISTURBED, MACHINE HEAD, SEVENDUST) and is set to include eleven new songs. Additional work on the album was done by Ben Schigel.

Commented Brown: "The only thing that comes to mind when I think of our new record is excitement! As a band, we've have grown leaps and bounds in comparison to our last release."

STRAIGHT LINE STITCH will take part in this summer's Rockstar Energy Drink Mayhem Festival alongside MEGADETH, DISTURBED and GODSMACK. The band will appear on the "Extreme Stage" on all dates along with SUICIDE SILENCE and ALL SHALL PERISH.

"Getting added to Mayhem is definitely a highlight of our careers thus far," said Brown. "There are so many amazing bands we thought we'd never get the opportunity to play with and now we get to. It's gonna be a surreal summer for sure."
