   About stratocruiser


10 November, 2009
New Stratocruiser CD is out right now.
November 10, 2009 is the official release date for "Ok, Class - The Best of Stratocruiser & More". After 4 full length CD's, numerous CD singles, EP's, vinyl 45's, compilation tracks, and tribute album tracks, Stratocruiser has culled 16 of their finest tracks to serve as the perfect primer to the band's blend of power pop colored with dollops of creamy classic rock and incendiary garage-rock sounds. Stratocruiser has, through cajoling, intimidation, blackmail and extortion secured the rights to all their recordings from their former labels and thus can now release this collection with a smattering of remastering and audio tweaking. Also tacked on are 5 BRAND NEW SONGS from the band that show further growth as artists and indeed as big burly men. "Ok, Class"'s new songs were all recorded at the bands own studio with more tasty keyboard work by Peter Holsapple. The new tracks break new ground for the band from the melodic sludgery of "Vanilla Sunday" to the minor key edginess of "New Glasses". Rock and roll rave-ups like the title track and and "That Phone Call" (the end title song to the indie film Hellphone) show the band stripping down its sound from their usual bombastic, thick, gloppy rock to showcase raw guitars and a sneering punkiness. OK Class will be available as a LIMITED EDITION DIGIPAK CD only (no digital downloads) via the band directly or through select distributors. Visit Not Lame, Kool Kat or Jam Recordings to get this brand new and exciting 21 song release.

Thanks for friendship! Don't forget that you can get my music for free and I still will get paid! Gimmesound.com pays artists for every download out of their ad revenue. By grabbing my tracks for free - you support me! We both gain!

Go forward http://www.gimmesound.com/OlegMerkuriev
