Bumping into town
This press release just in from the Bump camp:
Bump (tonight at Tasty World) is powerful postmodern American Rock & Roll. Endless energy, sturdy precision, an incessant work ethic and unconditional sincerity forge this Detroit based four-piece. Collectively Yorg, Eric Novak, Chris Sterr, and Clint Carpenter generate a dynamic neo-synth hook-driven brand of intelligent art rock. The equation is simple: over 400 shows, felonious theft, health problems and the steady rise up the club touring circuit; a special bond between these four high-school friends has generated what many would consider an "Incredible Consequence." ...
Bump's debut album, "Incredible Consequence," is a complete record of the band's past, present and future. Drawing from their collective roots, the album showcases the maturation process that every band with longevity experiences. For instance, "Last Chance"
illustrates the band's soulful rearing, while "Don't Be The Sunrise" offers a glimpse into the driving electronic exploration of the band. With "Keep it Close," the band displays the exhilarating future, as they dive deeper into a much more profound and dark sound.
Following five major festival performances in 2005, consecutive Detroit Music Award Nominations, a hefty and relentless touring schedule, and becoming one of Detroit's largest underground acts, Bump continues to turn heads through the country. Thus in 2005 the fuse was lit, Incredible consequence is the explosion that catapulted Bump onto the national scene.
