   About Perfect Union
Perfect Union is a band from Sterling, Virginia, and was formed in the fall of 2004 with its original members consisting simply of a two-some; Matt Bowen - Guitar/Vocals and Tristan Nilson - Drums. A few months later they added bassist Billy Rutherford to the lineup. After initially jamming with Billy, everything seemed to fit perfectly into place both musically and chemistry-wise, thus the name ’Perfect Union.’ Perfect Union’s musical drive was inspired by the desire to break the mundane, overplayed music that is currently the most popular ’scene’ today; i.e. Emo, Screamo, Hardcore, Un-melodic Metal(this is not our cup of tea but alot of the bands most of the time have nice guys). Contribution to bring the true meaning of ’Rock’ back into today’s scene has been their goal essentially from day one. Perfect Union’s musical genre is nearly impossible to pinpoint because of the diversity they ensure is incorporated into their Set list, but they are often compared as a combination of such bands as Nirvana and the Beatles. Their variation of musically classified genres is such an eclectic mix, that despite what ’scene’ the crowd consists of, at least one song will usually appeal to each of the different musical preferences present in the crowd. Perfect Union has played from as small of venues such as tiny cafes, to as big of venues such as Nation, in Washington, D.C. Out of the 3 Battle of the Bands they have participated in, they have come away with 1st place in two of them, and 2nd in one of them. Despite battling the adverse crowds of ’scene’ inclined audiences, and taking a 6 month hiatus, they have still defined a respected, well-liked name for themselves in the D.C. Metropolitan area. blue crystals

PLEASE WATCH THE FOLLOWING DOCUMENTARY. IT IS ALL FACTUAL INFORMATION, NOT PROPOGANDA. AS A MATTER OF FACT, ALL OF YOUR LIFE YOU HAVE BEEN UNQUESTIONINGLY LISTENING TO WHAT THE MEDIA TELLS YOU. YOUR FAMILY, FRIENDS, AND NEIGHBORS ARE ALL, IN ESSENCE, "BRAINWASHED". FOR YOUR OWN SAKE AND FOR THE SAKE OF EVERYONE YOU KNOW. SPREAD THIS VIDEO AROUND....



I do not mean to force anything onto anyone, but this New World Order business is so important and urgent. The awareness needs to be spread so that all of us can pull together and bring the New World Order down. I've been called a lunatic and brainwashed and all those good names by friends and family for believing in this and pursuing this. But I won't stop, because it is so important and it is the TRUTH!
Watch this movie, spread it around to friends, family, post it to their MySpace pages.
Do all that you can to make sure everyone knows what is really going on!
