Well, we have some really really bad news but we have some good news also.
Starting with the bad news.........
The Born Yesterday EP will unfortunately not be getting re-issued. After we went through all the work to update the cover art and all the other stuff we went through, it turns out that the sound files that were salvageable were not high enough quality for iTunes to accept so we just decided to ditch the whole thing since that was our main goal in the first place.
The good news is that you can still hear the songs from the EP on the Otisburg MySpace page AND.............
We have released a new song on the MySpace page. Well, actually, that is only half true. It isn't actually new. It was recorded somewhere about the same time as the songs from the Born Yesterday EP, maybe even before those songs. But it was never released anywhere so we decided to release it because we like it so much. It is called "Typical Love Story."
Also, we have linked this site to each of those songs so that you don't actually have to go to the MySpace site, you can just visit this site and click on the music player.
In other news, we have decided to concentrate the rest of our efforts into getting new material out. Our plans at this point are to release singles only (2 songs maximum).
I am not going to release any song titles at this point. We are pretty sure of what the first single will be but we are still going back and forth on what the 2nd track on the single will be.
Stay tuned though. We will keep you as informed as we possibly can. :)
Mixing elements of pop punk, power pop, and the influence of early '80s hardcore punk, Otisburg strikes a geek driven chord with hooks, harmonies, and a great pop sensibility. Straight forward and no-frills, Otisburg plays quirky punk rock for nerds. Pocket protectors not included.
