EGYPT CENTRAL KICKS OFF TOUR WITH STAIND NEXT WEEK
HIT SINGLE "KICK ASS" ENTERS TOP 20 AT ACTIVE ROCK RADIO
"Egypt
Central have managed to take the best qualities of turn-of-the-century
nu-metal, update them for the modern world, & add a dark melodic
sense to create a sound that's sinisterly catchy." - Guitar World
Egypt Central is climbing the radio charts as their latest hit single "Kick Ass" enters the Top 20 at Active Rock Radio. The song is from the Memphis band's critically acclaimed new album White Rabbit
(Fat Lady Music/ILG), which debuted at #78 on Billboard's Top 200 and
at #5 on Soundscan's Current Hard Music Albums upon its release earlier
this year. The band has been touring all year in support of the release
and will kick off a run with Staind on November 26.
Meanwhile, Egypt Central's "Gridiron Mix" version of "Kick Ass," fittingly titled "Kick Off," is regularly featured at home games for the Philadelphia Eagles, Kansas City Chiefs, Dallas Cowboys and the Baltimore Ravens
as part of the teams' in-stadium music programs. The Baltimore Ravens
are using the song as their official kick-off anthem this season, and
the team has created a video which can be seen on their official
website: http://bit.ly/oBzq5n. The song has proven to be such a hit that even basketball teams are using it. The University of Memphis Tigers featured the song in a recent video which can be viewed at CBS Sports: http://bit.ly/rpOfAd.
Egypt Central is John Falls (vocals), Joey Chicago (bass), Blake Allison (drums) and Jeff James (guitar).
