The Early November - The Mechanic, The Mother, And the Path
Monday, May 01, 2006
WOODLAND HILLS CA— Drive-Thru Record’s recording artist THE EARLY NOVEMBER will release a triple-disc titled The Mechanic, The Mother, And The Path on July 11, 2006.
This beautifully orchestrated release is the carefully thought out endeavor of EARLY NOVEMBER front man Ace Enders and band mates Jeff Kummer (drums), Sergio Anello (bass), Joe Marro (guitar), and Bill Lugg (guitar). Produced by Chris Badami (The Starting Line, Midtown), the albums were recorded in the band’s home state of New Jersey. The Mechanic disc highlights the group’s heavier rock sound while The Mother leans towards the acoustic, mellower side. The Path is a soundtrack complete with dialogue and characters both of which intermingle amongst the first two CDs, thus tying the three discs together. The story arc involves a young man who clashes with his over bearing father. The teenage character leaves his family with the girl he loves, setting out to forge a new path, one that avoids the trappings that ensnared his conventional parents. Upon having his own child, he swears he won’t make the same mistakes his father did. The cycle of life brings him full circle as his own son begins to rebel against him, and he finds himself slowly becoming like his father, a fate he tried so hard to escape.
The triple-decker is a follow-up to 2003’s critically acclaimed album, The Room’s Too Cold. Other landmark releases from THE EARLY NOVEMBER include the plugged-in and acoustic versions of the EP For All of This. Combined, the three albums have sold over 300K copies.
THE EARLY NOVEMBER is currently on the Take Action Tour, which raises awareness and funds for youth suicide prevention. In May, the group will shoot a video for the track “Hair,” and then spend the late summer on the Warped Tour.
