Rebuild Decadent Nation Kickstarter
CLICK HERE TO DONATE! THANK YOU!!!
On March 29th 2012, Decadent Nation was on a short tour of playing shows on military bases for the troops, when they found themselves in a near fatal accident. While they escaped with minimal injuries, the bands ability to record new music and tour has been greatly diminished. DN is currently recording the follow up CD to their 2010 effort So There Will Be No Doubt. Without this fundraiser, the band would not be able to continue taking their music on the road to the clubs and military bases they play all over the U.S. Please take the time to watch the video and see the dire nature of DNs plight at this point in their history, and thank you.
DN Presents: The Road to Fortaleza
How would you like to play a part in the production of Decadent Nation’s next album, Fortaleza? Well, with “The Road to Fortaleza,” you can!DN will be selling pre-sales for the album starting February 24th! The funds generated will go to mix and master the CD. In return for purchasing the pre-sale, not only will you receive a copy of the album before anyone else, but you will also have a ticket to the CD Release Show at Mojo’s in Columbia, MO. This will be a sell out show in an intimate setting with only 300 tickets available! Those present will be the first hear Fortaleza in its entirety. All those who par-take in the pre-sale will also have their name listed in a special “Road to Fortaleza” section of the album credits, solidifying their contribution to the CD. The album will be as much yours, as it will be the bands.
We would be nowhere without our fans. If it wasn’t for the love you have shown us, we wouldn’t have made it this far. Now, let’s write the next chapter in DN’s book together. Take the road to Fortaleza with us.
Subversify publishes Colins article on the state of modern rock music!
Many of our readers may remember Subversifys interview with Decadent Nation, a lively progressive
rock group currently touring nationally and putting together a new mind bender album. What one
discovers when corresponding with the group is, they arent just a closely knit quartet of musicians,
they are extremely aware of the social/political climate and have a lot of strong opinions.
They have given volunteer performances for the Occupy Movement, a number of charities, and even took
their music to the upper middle class residential area of St. Louis, playing from a flatbed truck.
Recently, the group has been expressing a bit of unhappiness, not about politics, but about a fellow
rock group; the Black Keys. This social transgressor has apparently dissed Led Zeppelin. When
Subversify asked lead singer and song writer, Colin LaVaute, if it was possible to develop your own
blusey hard rock style music, astonishingly similar to Led Zeppelins without having studied the artist,
he responded with a statement so vivid, Subversify would like to publish it in its entirety.
