"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's hit single "Kick Ass" is
featured in the Universal Pictures release American Reunion, in
theaters nationwide today! The song is from the Memphis band's critically
acclaimed sophomore release, 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 last year. "Kick
Ass" was top 20 on the Active Rock radio charg, following up first single
"White Rabbit which reached Top 15.
Meanwhile, Egypt Central's "Gridiron Mix" version
of "Kick Ass," fittingly titled "Kick Off," was
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 used the song as their official kick-off anthem last 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.
