It's a small world after all. That's not a song often sung by today's contemporary artist but it's a tune that Allentown, PA's The House Lights must have been humming. What other band tours the US and Japan within just the first few months of its existence. After teasing fans around the world, The House Lights debut album This Town Is Murder is now available on Fake Chapter Records. The album is also available online to Japan listeners through the new Prismix site (www.prismix.tv). With lasting melodies, airtight rhythm, and syncopated guitars, This Town Is Murder is filled with a smart indie pop sound as unique as it is instantly familiar. Though perhaps this strong debut comes as no surprise when you know the band's history. From the ashes of the critically acclaimed Four Minute Mile, The House Lights continue down the creative path that was made. Four Minute Mile finished its run with two successful EPs, Never Been To LA (2002) and The Plastic Chapter (Fake Chapter, 2003), appearances at Dewey Beach Pop Festival, Rock Out Festival (Saratoga Springs, NY), Millennium Music Conference, and winners of a WZZO Backyard Band Competition and Pulse Weekly's best band poll. The new line-up is the combustible combination of kindred creative spirits. Kyle Campbell contributes thoughtful lyrics, honest vocals, and steady rhythm guitar, while John Timko, the resident heartthrob, shreds on guitar and provides picturesque backing vocals. Bassist Ryan Herczeg flails, jumps and thrashes unlike any bass player alive and Dave Parfitt holds it all together with immensely creative, trigger precision drumming. The House Lights debut album This Town Is Murder is now available on Fake Chapter Records joining other such acts as Green To Think, The Trauma Queens, The Sixfifteens, and more.
