DRY KILL LOGIC have set an October 5

new album, "The Dead and Dreaming"

Lets call this everything what it seems
A violent distortion of all my dreams
And still it burns inside of me
Just to spite the cold that seems to feed

- With Deepest Regret These words are
not only an example of the emotions behind
the new Dry Kill Logic album The Dead &
Dreaming, but are the words that this
band has built their reputation on.
Together since 1993, Dry Kill Logic
(formerly Hinge) have seen their fair
share of ups and downs writing the music
they love. The band released two records
independently (1998's Cause Moshing is
Good Fun! & 1999's Elemental Evil) on
their own indie label Psychodrama before
partnering with Scrap 60 Productions in
2000 to produce the highly acclaimed
'The Darker Side of Nonsense',
released in 2001 through Roadrunner /
Island Def Jam Records. Touring in
support of the record followed, with the
band playing for thousands of fans both
in the U.S & overseas with the likes of
Fear Factory, Kittie, Primer 55,
Spineshank & others. After 10 years on the
local scene, Dry Kill Logic was poised
to break out and show people that they
are serious about the music they make
and the lifestyles they lead.

But, as always in life, you can't have
your ups without your downs.

In 2002 the band saw the departure of
guitarist Scott Thompson from the fold;
DKL also parted ways with Roadrunner
that year in order to make the kind of
record they want to make. "We see this
as a job we love" explains Cliff. "When
you have outside pressure forcing you in
a direction you don't want to go, all
of a sudden it turns into a job that
isn't fulfilling creatively. And what is
the point of being in a band if you
aren't achieving what you want to
creatively?" With that mindset the
band took a few months to regroup and
enlisted long time metal veteran Jason
Bozzi in the band. "From the first second
we met Jason we knew we were taking a
step forward" says Phil. "He writes
amazing riffs, is a killer performer and
has the mindset & dedication to be at the
top of the game". With a newfound focus
the band entered their rehearsal studio
in Mt. Vernon, NY in February of 2003
to begin writing what would eventually
become The Dead & Dreaming. "We had the
option to go write the new record in a
few different locations, but we decided
that we wanted to be in the same room
in the same town that we wrote all our
other records in" states Rigano. "There is
a certain vibe and sense of comfort that
comes with being in a familiar
location, and we felt this was the
best place to be to get the right
feel". The writing began with a fury, as
the band penned over 35 songs, including
the 11 that will make up their sophomore
release. After a lineup change that
brought bassist Danny Horboychuk into
the fold, the band then spent the majority
of 2003 and early 2004 in the studio
with Eddie Wohl & Rob Caggiano of Scrap
60 recording the new record. The band
took a few breaks in between studio
sessions to headline a healthy dose of
shows including their first ever arena
show in Anchorage, Alaska & select shows
on the 2003 Jagermeister Music Tour
with metal icons Slayer & Hatebreed. The
time had come to bring the new material to
the only place that mattered - the
stage. "All the shows were sold out,
and we were playing cities that we had
not been to since 2001. The kids would
remember what we were wearing last time
we played, what the set list was, and
they were all really enthusiastic about
the new material and the direction of
the new record. It was humbling, to say
the least. states Cliff. All told, we
couldn't be happier with the songs on
this record, the team we are working
with and the possibilities for the
future," says Jason. "The early
response to the new music has been
nothing short of unbelievable, and the
future looks bright".

With their newfound purpose and direction,
Dry Kill Logic are out to show the world
that no matter how many times you get
kicked in the teeth, you can always
come up smiling.
