hey

What? ABNW has a [possible] show coming up? NO WAY!!

It is true. And amazing. September 3, ABNW will be playing in Jenison along with Bleeding Souls.

As for a CD release... not so sure... We will hopefully be recording this winter and have a CD out soon after... We will most likely be selling these CDs online and through word of mouth [boy that is a great phrase].

If you wish to reserve a CD for yourself, please e-mail me [Mike] at:

Sweet.  Mike and steve and mark came over to my house for a practice, and we finished up a lot of Fuck California.  It's fucking sweet.  The guitar and bass gel very well together, and it's just catchy enough to mock Cali punk in all its glory.

I also schooled Mike and those other bastards in CBFD.  Makes up for all the times I got bent over and cornholed in Halo.

The A Brave New World Sagas: Vol. 1:
The Origins
By Mike Rapin

            Awaken children of mine, for you are the instrument for my playing…  I call upon thee with the force of the almighty Alpha Plus god, Dementias. Awaken!

             Rising from the sea crypt, Joel, the first of two guitar-wielding gods of music, awakens from his slumber with the need to create. His roar beckons to the other gods: Stevel, the mighty drummer of death, buried within the rocky mountains of Asia, Mike, the second of two guitar-wielding gods, hidden among the deserts of Australia, and Russ, the final brethren, the deeper guitar-god of bass, hidden within the grassy hills of Ireland.
            The force together called A Brave New World, fueled on anger, hate, and love, rise now for the gods are calling them to rise up. Evil has begun its decent on Earth and only this force, or band, of men can destroy it.

            Flying across the world to meet, the men use all of what they have to intensify their flight to their hideout. On arrival, they speak.
           
“Come brothers, for we cannot drop the soap!” Joel’s voice called across to the others.
            “Aye!” the three called back.
            “We must wear our banner and our scars!” Mike exclaimed.
            “Aye!”
            “And only we can kiss the girls and make them one!” Stevel’s voice was clear amongst the group.
            “Aye!”
            “And only we can allow dusk to fall,” Russ shouted toward the three.
            “Aye!”

            And so, A Brave New World set off onto the world to search and destroy evil. Flying across the world to pursue their only enemy… evil (and pop-punk).

            Good luck to you A Brave New World. Only you can stop what is evil. Farewell.




-Mike
