VHS OR BETA

While one format already has, and the other seems to be heading in that direction, VHS OR BETA are not in danger of being tossed in the same scrap heap as the 8-track, the 78 rpm vinyl disc, and the pet rock. In fact, this Louisville, Kentucky outfit is on the verge of releasing its latest opus, Bring On The Comets. The band will also embark on a summer tour to promote the disc, which will be available for public consumption on August 28, 2007.

VHS OR BETA plans to do select Midwest dates in July before embarking on a full-fledged tour following the release of Bring On The Comets. Craig Pfunder (guitar/vocals), Mark Palgy (bass) and Mark Guidry (drums) will be joined by new guitarist Mike Mcgill. Drummer Mark Guidry will also be using a full live drum kit as well his usual electronic equipment.

Bring On The Comets was recorded with up-and-coming producer Brandon Mason (Secret Machines, David Bowie) in Asheville, NC, and Nashville, TN. It will be released on the Astralwerks label.v
