Louisville, KY, September 2�Louisville based heavy rock band (intheclear) recently released their debut EP, *Dirty Cheese and The Hoodie Thieves EP*, which was recorded with acclaimed producer Malcolm Springer (Full Devil Jacket, Greenwheel, Sinch).
*Dirty Cheese and the Hoodie Thieves EP* is a 6-song collection that combines the sheer vocal power and songwriting depth of lead vocalist Andy Paul, along with the aggressive yet emotive backing of guitarist Clay Cook, bassist Corey Heim, drummer John Stemmle and lead guitarist Brandon Sidebottom. With songs like �True,� �A Pulse and a Blindside,� and �Love, Chinese Style,� (intheclear) is clearly a young band on the verge of some big things. Musically they are most often compared to A Perfect Circle, Deftones, Sevendust, Taproot, and Incubus, but the band�s influences are drawn from a wider scope that includes U2, Joe Satriani and Jeff Buckley.
(intheclear) has been touring throughout the Midwest for the past two years, sharing the stage with such notable acts as Days of the New, Chevelle, Flaw, Sevendust, ill nino, Finger Eleven, Chronic Future, and Greenwheel. They recently won WLRS�s summer-long battle of the bands, and in the process received a main-stage slot at LRSFest in 2004. (intheclear) is regularly spun on WTFX 93.1 & WLRS 105.1, the latter of which they are regularly in the top five most requested songs.
�Once in a while a band emerges from the vast and often mediocre plains of the underground original music genre. A band with youth, talent, conviction, long baggy shorts and that certain spark that sends chills to the bone and vibrations to the pockets of record companies. There are many unsigned bands out there and this is the story of one of them.��Louisville Music News
