New York, NY (September 15, 2008) Los Angeles based punkers The Bronx will release THE BRONX to stores and online nationwide on November 11th, 2008. This will be the group s third self-titled record and picks up where their much acclaimed earlier records left off where their infectious brand of blistering, highly-charged punk rock that always packs a punch. Beginning November 1st the band will tour in Canada and the U.S. with Everytime I Die. Shortly after, the group will head out for a long string of headlining shows. The upcoming release of THE BRONX, will be released on the group s own White Drugs label, with help of New York independent label Original Signal Recordings.

Production duties went to Dave Shiffman, who has worked with Mars Volta, System of a Down and Rage Against the Machine and was recorded at The Bronx s very own Big Game Lodge studio in Los Angeles. Additionally they enlisted Joby Ford, the band s guitarist, to create the album s cover art as he has done the past two records.

One of the up coming albums highlights is sure to be Knifeman which fans can currently listen to on www.myspace.com/thebronx. This cut truly showcases the band s range, from lead singer Matt Caughthran s aggressive, strong voice and lyrics to the bands hard-edged yet, catchy music. Along with this track, many new songs will be featured at this year s CMJ Music Marathon in New York City, where the band is set to perform.

Audiences nationwide were able to catch The Bronx this past summer on the big screen in the theatrical release of The Germs: What We Do Is Secret, as they were featured musicians in the film, playing the historic punk rock group Black Flag. In other words…the band has kept quite busy.

Please see all confirmed dates below; the group will also be touring the UK in late October and Australia in December. The start of the campaign begins now but doesn t end anytime in the near future or even into 2009. There is more exciting news to share about the plans for early next year that we will slowly but surely begin to unveil.
