TODAY ON MTV2;
SINGLE CONTINUES RISE UP ACTIVE ROCK CHARTS;
MORE TOUR DATES ADDED, INCLUDING STINT WITH HINDER
JUNE 23, 2011 -- The video for “White Rabbit,” the first single from EGYPT CENTRAL’s critically acclaimed album of the same name, will make its TV premiere on MTV2 today. The Mason Dixon-directed clip was shot in Nashville and can be seen here: http://www.mtv.com/videos/egypt-central/663970/white-rabbit.jhtml#artist=2546515.
WHITE RABBIT was released May 31 on Fat Lady Music/ILG and debuted on SoundScan’s “Current Hard Music Albums” chart at #5 and at #78 on Billboard’s “Top 200 Albums” chart.
The song is quickly rising up the Active Rock Radio chart, where it currently sits at #18. It’s being spinned on over 60 stations nationwide, including SiriusXM’s “Octane,” WXTB (Tampa), KUPD (Phoenix) and WWBN (Flint).
Rave reviews have been pouring in, including:
“…the album doesn’t have any letdowns. Fans already won over by Egypt Central’s previous record will recognize the band’s original sound here, and new listeners will be taken a wild ride to a strange, dark wonderland and back. Follow the White Rabbit.”
-- Revolver
“Egypt Central have managed to take the best qualities of turn-of-the-century nu-metal, update them for the modern world and add a dark melodic sense to create a sound that's sinisterly catchy.” – Guitar World
