THE CHARIOT: New Song Posted Online

February 19, 2007

Atlanta-based technical post hardcore/metal quintet THE CHARIOT has posted a new track, entitled "They Faced Each Other", on its MySpace page. The song holds special importance to the band, as singer Josh Scogin explains: "The choice was really hard, but 'They Faced Each Other' is one of our favorite songs and is a good definition for what to expect on the album, lyrically and musically. It has a lot of energy, a lot of the punk-rock vibe, it got a really great response when we played it live in Europe for the first and only time on one of our rare encores. The kids weren’t leaving until we played another song, and we chose that one, and it stuck."

"They Faced Each Other" comes off THE CHARIOT's second full length album, "The Fiancée", due in April. The band just finished up a full European run with BECOMING THE ARCHETYPE and SHAPED BY FATE, and is about to head out on a U.S. tour with NORMA JEAN and A LIFE ONCE LOST.

In connection with the release of "The Fiancée", THE CHARIOT is holding a contest through February 26 via Eventful.com, a popular web site that will allow fans from six pre-selected cities to vote on where they want the band to have their record-release show. Eventful.com just released a special portion of their website, Eventful Demand, which has been helping thousands of performers empower fans with the ability to influence where they perform, in this online voting scenario. THE CHARIOT was happy to take part in the new campaign, saying, "We are real excited about the idea of giving people a voice and letting them have the control over who they want to see and where. We wish something like this was in place years ago." Fans from Atlanta, Nashville, Los Angeles, Dayton, Chicago and Hoboken, among others, will be able to compete, and they can vote by logging on to www.eventful.com/thechariot, www.myspace.com/thechariot, or www.thechariot.com until February 26 to demand that THE CHARIOT plays their album-release show in their town.
