About Sex & Patriotism
Rock *n* roll is alive and well, and thrives in a band called Sex & Patriotism. Fueled by their love for music, and passion for living the "Rock n' Roll Dream". S&P fuses a sexual energy not seen since the days of bands like The Stones, Kiss, GNR and Aerosmith with the volatile ideas of patriotism, and being willing to die for what you believe.. This culminates into an explosive performance of All American Rock n' Roll back with a vengeance. The band has made a genuine name for itself through its determination to play as many shows as possible, and it's blistering debut release "To Die For". It*s hard work that*s paid off* in a big way. Since forming in 2004, Sex & Patriotism has opened for and toured with major-label bands such as LA Guns, Black Stone Cherry, Sponge, Silvertide, Drowning Pool, Crud, Revelation Theory and more, rocking stages from small intimate clubs to large theaters and amphi theaters. Musically, influences range from early rockers Rolling Stones, Led Zeppelin, and Aerosmith, to early Guns n' Roses, Def Leppard, and AC/DC, and modern rockers, Shinedown, Nickleback, and The Darkness. It*s a dynamic sound and energy that is captured on the group*s current full-length, *To Die For.* The disc has received excellent reviews and coupled with the band*s live shows and International radio and web play, has created a buzz in the rock world with fans and industry professionals alike. In 2007 Sex & Patriotisms was chosen as Sound Press/AMG Artist of the Month for March from over 100,000 bands. They were crowned runner up out of 227 bands in the *Fox Rocks Detroit Def Leppard/ Styx* contest in July of 2007. The fan-voted contest earned them a spot on the Fox 2 news hour. Tracks from "To Die For" were also featured in the film *True Love* (Four Weird Guys Pro. LLC). After coming off tour with LA Guns in December of 2007, and returning to the disintegrating Michigan scene founding member/ frontman ChriSteele along with drummer Josh Williams decided to relocate Sex & Patriotism to a healthier scene "Music City" Nashville, TN. To rebuild the lineup and record the forthcoming 2nd release tentatively entitled "RIOT". Serendipitously as if they heard the call the members to complete the new lineup guitarist Lord Henry from S.C., guitarist Gabriel Love from PA., and bassist CRage from MN moved to Nashville around the same time in pursuit of the same thing; a real deal rock n' roll band. The band is currently writing and recording the new material, and gearing up to get back out on the stage in 2009 in support of the new release. Their latest demo leaked to myspace "Livin' on the Fly" has gotten rave reviews from fans who say they can't get it out of their head, or wait to hear it live! They will get their chance soon, as 2009 is shaping up to be a very rockin' year for S&P. Website: http://www.sexandpatriotism.net http://www.myspace.com/sexandpatriotism
