"Dig My Own Grave" Video Premiere @ AOL-Popeater
Current mood: excited
New Found Glory video for "Dig My Own Grave" video premieres next Monday on AOL's Popeater on MONDAY.
Our video for "Dig My Own Grave," the video that we shot a little while ago (and had a blast making...you'll see why), which is also in total open defiance of FCC standards (you'll see why) will officially premiere on Monday at AOL's Popeater. com blog.
We're so excited to finally unleash this thing on the world as it'll be a good long while for the TV edit to be ready.
This is the glory of New Media and we'd like to send a big thank you out to AOL and the good, grown ups who understand that guns can be funny if used properly, and a huge thank you to them for making this the home of the premiere.
If you want to see a video that has a sense of humor and is an homage to classic South Central rap videos, tough guy hardcore, graffiti, and as a whole (according to Kerrang! magazine), "poop all over their naysayers," then bookmark Popeater. com
And if you haven't bought TIP OF THE ICEBERG yet, what are you waiting for? It's still $9.99 at Best Buy, FYE, Hot Topic, and anywhere that carries the great independent releases by our friends at Bridge Nine records.

In April 2008, Boston's hardcore punk label Bridge Nine Records is partnering up with New Found Glory to release the Tip Of The Iceberg EP on CD, 7", and digital formats. To some, it may seem like an unlikely partnership. To Bridge Nine and New Found Glory, it makes perfect sense. New Found Glory's guitar player, infamous hardcore kid, and Gorilla Biscuits vinyl collector extraordinaire Chad Gilbert stated, "When we began New Found Glory, we were just a couple of kids from the hardcore scene playing in a punk band. Even today, there are still hardcore kids that support NFG so it's awesome to put something out for them and it's also a chance for us to show recent NFG fans the scene where the band started. Now that we've got some time in between contracts, it's nice to take some time and do whatever we want and write and record music with no pressure."
Featuring three New Found Glory originals and three cover songs, this a release that shows an inspired band having fun making a record for themselves and their supporters. The Tip Of The Iceberg EP pays tribute to the bands and the people who inspired New Found Glory throughout their career as they reached their success over the last decade as the band rose from anonymity to releasing three gold albums and becoming a household name in the process.
Bridge Nine Records' owner Chris Wrenn stated, "New Found Glory has always been a band that hardcore kids have liked, and they are not one of those bands that came from nowhere and threw out a few hardcore nods for credibility's sake. The first time I met the band was when I was with Champion in Australia a few years ago. The guys came out to the show, hung out, and they were cool guys. It's common to have bands with hardcore kids playing pop punk songs and some are pretty big bands, but there were guys doing the same thing a decade before in basements and garages and they got the idea from New Found Glory."
The Tip Of The Iceberg EP was recorded with Paul Miner (of Death By Stereo notoriety) who was also at the helm for NFG's last two proper albums, Coming Home as well as the recent From The Screen To Your Stereo II. The artwork is going to be by hardcore illustration legend Sean Taggart, made famous for his work on classics by Agnostic Front and the Crumbsuckers as well as supplying artwork for more recent Bridge Nine releases from Mental and Think I Care.

Platinum selling artist New Found Glory has amicably parted ways with Geffen Records after 7 years with the label.
New Found Glory released five albums with Geffen Records including the gold selling albums, Sticks And Stones, New Found Glory (ST), and Catalyst. Geffen "up-streamed" New Found Glory from Drive-Thru Records in 2000. Speaking on behalf of the band, guitarist Chad Gilbert expressed the group's gratitude and enormous appreciation for the fantastic years the band spent with Geffen. He also said, "that the band is really excited about the future." In addition to splitting from Geffen, New Found Glory has also parted ways with Rick DeVoe Management. Gilbert states that "the band and management have split on good terms. We're very grateful for everything Rick and his staff have done for us."
New Found Glory has returned to Drive-Thru Records for their next release, From The Screen To Your Stereo Part 2. Out this fall, From The Screen To Your Stereo Part 2 is a collection of theme songs from classic movies covered by the band and features cameos by artists who are friends of New Found Glory . The full-length release is a follow-up to the 2000 EP From The Screen To Your Stereo, which has sold more than 273K copies to date. In regards to From The Screen To Your Stereo Part 2 Richard Reines, co-owner of Drive-Thru Records says, "Even when New Found Glory were picked up by Geffen we always remained great friends with them, and to be working with them again is something we always hoped would happen."
New Found Glory will release a new album on a TBD label in 2008.
