Haunted West is still pleased to announce its debut release "Haunted West". This 4-song self-titled EP features the band Haunted West and is released by new record label, Haunted West Records. The 180-gram vinyl is limited to 500 copies. The band is comprised of five old friends from Wooster, Ohio who migrated to different regions of the West, rekindling their long term musical relationship despite themselves. The band features the eerie pop songs of lead singer/songwriter Mark Grande, with friends Derek Walls, Jeremy Wierwille, Taylor Carmer and Jack McFadden providing the rest of the noise. The band has resided in or around the Bay Area for the better part of the last decade, playing out on special occasions. Please support these musicians by buying their debut record today, preferably on vinyl. Every vinyl order will come with a free CD. Links to buy the vinyl, cd-r's and various digital formats can be found at http://www.hauntedwest.com. The direct link to purchase the vinyl is: http://cdbaby.com/cd/hauntedwestlp. With the ease of distributing digital music files today, Haunted West feels that CD's are a fairly worthless medium. While of course they are good for promotional purposes, and/or filling landfills, we have them only out of fear of alienating potential listeners. In a perfect world, everyone would still routinely listen to vinyl records on turntables. However, we all know how much "work" that involves. Its too easy to just punch a button on a digital file player and be able to listen to music for hours, without doing as much as flipping a record. Convenience has won for now. Its hard to jog or ride the bus with a turntable, but it looks cool though. Thanks for listening! Haunted West is currently at work on a full length LP. It will feature 11 songs. Hundreds and hundreds of rough tracks have been laid down, many more have yet to be. We're back to work on the project once again. Anyway, I will print 500 copies of the full length LP, like the EP. Thanks for your support! Wonderful things have been happening in the Haunted West world. The debut LP has taken giant steps over the Haunted Halloween weekend. June 2010? Over/Under. Please purchase our debut Haunted West EP on 180g vinyl, and don't forget to look for the upcoming release.
