Quietdrive - The Ghost Of What You Used To Be

Minneapolis powerpop band Quietdrive released their fifth full-length studio album last July 9 in Japan through Twilight Records. It's titled "The Ghost Of What You Used To Be" and is the first one featuring new guitar player Brady Trudeau.

Among the twelve tracks of the record, we can find "Every Day", included in the US version of "Up Or Down" and the more recent "Even When I'm Gone", a beautiful song released last year as a tribute to children who have lost their lives to cancer.

A release date for US and other markets will be announced soon, so stay tuned!

Powerpoppers Quietdrive from Minneapolis, Minnesota, began a fundraising project on Kickstarter last Summer and on July 31, 2011, just two hours before their deadline, the band exceeded their goal of $15,000 to record the cover album "Your Record / Our Spin". Quietdrive began recording the album in October 2011 and it's finally available now.

The record includes 10 songs voted by Kickstarter-donating fans. Among them, we find a great powerpop remake of the classic Toto song "Africa", a brilliant, moving interpretation of "Say Say Say", originally sung by Paul McCartney and Michael Jackson, and an exhilarating tumble-dries version of the famous Night Ranger track "Sister Christian".

All in all, a highly enjoyable, funny album you should check out. Listen to Quietdrive's "Africa" here for a taste of "Your Record / Our Spin".
