Shiny Toy Guns is back with a new sound, a new singer, a new tour and a new album
‘Season of Poison’ is in stores November 4th and the single Ricochet is quickly becoming a radio hit.
The band spent the better half of 2 years on the road and off progressing their dance/rock and electronic roots. Once again producing the album by themselves, founding members CHAD PETREE and JEREMY DAWSON used post-2008 technology to marry dynamic late-70’s style synthesizer programming with face-erasing stoner rock; gently spreading this over layer upon layer of ethnic and tribal rhythms. Not to mention their keen pop sense in lyrics and arrangement have collided with the legendary mixing abilities of super-engineer ANDY WALLACE to create a completely new color in the future-forward musical spectrum.
“When one of our singers moved on to pursue other things we moved forward with our initial choice for co-lead singer of the band in 2002, longtime friend SISELY TREASURE. At that time she was still locked into her Dreamworks Records deal with her former project COOLER KIDS and we were not able to bring her in. So we have returned to the exact original idea and lineup that SHINY TOY GUNS was meant to be.”
The new live show and sound of Shiny Toy Guns will be one of the most dramatic displays of technology and performance … melting state-of-the-art lighting and video into sound with a stage display of over 12 different instruments. This brings “over the top” to a gentle word used to describe any of their tour dates.
