Brand New Sin

BRAND NEW SIN are currently in the midst of the massive Jagermeister tour with MUSHROOMHEAD, SOIL and THE AUTUMN OFFERING, which runs through the end of next month. Their new album, Tequila, is now available in stores, while a live video for the track 'Motormeth' was recently shot in their hometown of Syracuse in front of over 2,000 fans. Look for the clip to surface later this month.

Kevin Dean (drums) checks in with the following report from the road: "We are covering a lot of ground on this tour after starting in Chicago and going into a few Midwest cities (Topeka, Flint, Madison etc.) Then we headed west to Seattle and Portland before working our way down the West Coast for two weeks. We partied with members from MOTÖRHEAD, NOCTURNE, ADEMA, STATIC-X and AUDIOSLAVE. Things got a lot crazier from there as I got bitten by a scorpion in Arizona (I think) and ended up in the emergency room. Two band trailers got hit with graffiti, while The Autumn Offering's van got stolen, only to turn up in the parking lot (moved by the Soil crew - awesome).

What topped it all off was the singer of Mushroomhead calling us New Found Sin for some reason and finally the keyboardist whipped a bottle at him on stage and a fight broke out. The Autumn Offering's van broke down a few days ago - they're still on the West Coast - so hopefully they'll continue this tour. Seriously, you have to take care of yourself out here. It can get out of hand real fast! Temperature changes, mountains, deserts, oceans, booze, drugs, and crazy women (and men) are all around you, so it's up to you to keep your head and be smart. Otherwise, rock on, and we hope to see you all soon."
