THEY'LL BE WAKING UP SOON IS AVAILABLE NOW HERE.

Maximum Rock 'N' Roll.

Frankenstein 3000 don’t mind that their 2005 covers CD America’s Hit Remakers got as much attention as it did. Between the songs that were included and the special guests that were featured it’s been their biggest claim to fame so far. They also don’t mind that after two original CDs (2007’s Welcome To Planet Omega and 2009’s Where Do We Go From Here?) their fans demanded another covers collection. Over the years Frankenstein 3000 has taken every opportunity to pay tribute to their heroes and They’ll Be Waking Up Soon is the ultimate tribute. Originally conceived as a closet-cleaning release, collecting various covers that have appeared on tribute CDs over the last few years, They’ll Be Waking Up Soon quickly took on a life of it’s own. After they completed Where Do We Go From Here? in early 2009, Frankenstein 3000 kept the momentum going and got right back into the studio to record a few more covers for what would become They’ll Be Waking Up Soon. 4 songs soon became 6, which then turned into 8... eventually they wrapped up work on 12 songs to add to the 15 that had already been completed.

For the first time all 4 members of Frankenstein 3000 take lead vocals, making They’ll Be Waking Up Soon a truly unique release for the band, and at 79:54 not a second was spared (they contacted the CD manufacturer to find out the absolute maximum length allowed). Recordings from as far back as 2002 mesh perfectly with newly recorded material because the one constant throughout Frankenstein 3000’s career is their energy. They’ll Be Waking Up Soon plays like a live set, opening with the Cheap Trick classic “Hello There” going directly into The Clash’s “Safe European Home” and not stopping for a breath until the last note of the “encore” of MC5’s “Kick Out The Jams” has faded.

One word that could easily describe Frankenstein 3000’s new CD, They’ll Be Waking Up Soon, is “epic”. Put it on, sit back and let the music take you on the ride of your life.
