| On paper, Army of Me is the quintessential indie rock band. But the record they made could possibly transcend that. "We are trying to be one of the best bands you will ever see,” says lead singer Vince Scheuerman during an interview with Alternative Press magazine (June 2005). Vince (lead vocals/guitar), Brad Tursi (guitar) and Dennis Manuel (drums) formed Army of Me in 2001 and defined their sound with continuous touring of the Northeast, South and mid-Atlantic of the US. Opening for bigger acts throughout the process, they developed their own "army" of fans, leading to sold-out shows at DC's famous 9:30 club, and various clubs in New York City.
Snapped up by the prolific Doghouse Label (the launching pad for such acts as All-American Rejects, Say Anything and The Honorary Title), Army of Me is set to properly release its debut LP, Citizen, in Spring 2007. Army of Me is hovering over the line between indie and mainstream. It is in your best interest to discover them now. |
