Who Remembers Slow Burn?

Slow Burn – Track 01

Slow Burn – Track 02

Slow Burn – Track 03

Who remembers these 3 songs?

I was rummaging through my iTunes today, and I came across these 3 songs that I haven’t listened to in years.  I listened and I smiled.

Slow Burn was Await Rescue before it was Await Rescue, and it consisted of me (Andrew – Guitar), Matt (Drums), Kevin Tibbetts (Bass), and Peter Deluca (Guitar).  Few people have heard these, but this was the first time any of us entered a studio to record.

It was the summer of 2005 (I think), and my good friend Eddie Carlino (www.carlinoguitars.com) told me that he had a friend who would record the song ideas that I had been playing all summer on every guitar and amplifier that he had in his store.  He said that the riffs I would play for him would get stuck in his head and that he was going to get them professionally recorded for us.  Thank you very much Eddie.

So Matt, Tibbs, Pete, and I practiced for what seemed like 3 days straight and then went into the studio and recorded and mixed these 3 songs in a single afternoon.  It was an incredible experience.

What I love about these tracks is how raw and full of energy they are.  The excitement that we felt to be recording for first time really translates into the performances on these tracks.  Listening to them brings me back to being in the control room of the studio, doing guitar overdubs, and rocking the fuck out while doing it.  Tibbs and Matt rocked out and recorded in the live room, and the rhythm section on these tracks is beast because of those two.

I loved it.  We knew the songs back and front and we were prepared to just go in and rock it.  There was no pressure, no expectations, just four friends being able to hear the songs their songs recorded for the first time.  Hearing the tracks back was an incredible experience that got me addicted to being in the studio.  To this day, there is nothing more satisfying for me than hearing back a song you just recorded for the first time.

One last thing about these tracks… “Track 1” is my favorite and was the favorite of most people who heard these songs. Whenever I hear the guitar solo at the end of “Track 1”, I still get the same chills that I got when I heard it the first time.  What makes the solo section so powerful and aggressive isn’t the guitar playing, it’s the drum fill that Matt does at the end of it. Without the drums that solo section would be nothing, but the drums fit it perfectly and give that section all of its momentum. The funny thing about that part is that I though for sure I had fucked up the solo, but Ari said that was the keeper, and he was right.  One take.  Done.

Hope you guys get as big a kick out of these tracks as I did!

Puscifer at The Berklee Performance Center last night

Three-fourths of Await Rescue was in attendance for the Puscifer (Maynard James Keenan’s side-project) show last night in Boston.  Johnny would have undoubtedly been present if he wasn’t off living the dream in LA’s 80 degree weather, and this show may just have been good enough to make him wish that he had toughed it out and hung around Boston for the week.  (Especially since a 4.4 magnitude quake hit Southern Cali the other day.  See you down in Arizona bay.)

Matt, Snake, and I found out about this show completely randomly at the last minute when a friend of Matt’s friend, Russian Julie, came up from NYC and knew about it. No idea how Russian Julie’s friend had heard about it due to the fact that there was no promotion of any sort surrounding this show in the Boston area. He must be on the Puscifer Mailing List… (Ahem! Please see the bottom of this post!).  After not being able to attend Monday night’s Puscifer show, we hit up the BPC’s ticket window 45 minutes before Puscifer took to the stage and snagged ourselves tickets.

We walked into the performance center and were immediately greeted by unmistakable sound of Maynard’s voice.  Once we got to our seats and saw what was going on onstage, we knew were in for far more than a rock show.

Maynard describes Puscifer as a “playground for his subconscious”, and what was going onstage would definitely support this statement.  All the musicians onstage, one of which was Tim Alexander of Primus, were wearing flight attendant outfits, and the stage props and videos also followed the “Vagina Airlines” theme that went throughout the show.

Maynard and a fellow female singer sang the entire set each standing behind TV screens that had cameras and microphones attached to the backs so that the audience got a close up on both singers’ faces whenever they leaned into the mic to sing.  The screens displayed black and white images of their faces with a distorted “fish eye” effect going on.  I thought this was very a cool and unique idea that just made the whole thing seem a little bit crazier.

There were also four other screens onstage on stands and one massive screen behind the stage that would play “Vagina Airlines” videos in between songs, while the band members walked around acting as if they were flight attendants by handing out beverages, checking baggage, and doing whatever else flight attendants on Vagina Airlines do to ensure that passengers have a pleasant experience.  The videos were hilarious and satirical in nature, taking shots at both airline and US security policies, and as you would expect with any Maynard project, the videos featured very strange, stunning visuals.

This was definitely more of a Vaudeville-style act than a rock show, but I was pleasantly surprised to hear that the band rocked harder and more aggressively than any of the recordings I had previously heard of Puscifer.  For the majority of the show, two dudes played the role of Vagina Airlines passengers by sitting in the airplane seats at the front of the stage looking at the crowd while being harassed by the flight attendants (band members) in between songs.  At one point, Tim Alexander handed them a massive rubber dildo to swing around during the set, and he also kicked their bags at them when Maynard booted them off of the “plane” at the end of the show.

Wild.

Before playing the last song, Maynard addressed the crowd for the first time and mentioned that he was funding this tour, that it was completely “independent”, and sincerely thanked everyone for their support.  He then said something completely unexpected that I never thought I would hear coming from someone who had written songs about how he cannot wait for the Apocalypse to come. He said “I know things are tough out there, but it will get better… Just focus on what’s important and everything will be alright.”

I have never felt so hopeful in my life.  I trust Maynard.  Fuck 2012!

If Puscifer ever comes to a town near you, definitely check them out.  It was an incredible experience and has definitely changed Await Rescue’s perception of what a rock show can be… Just don’t expect any flight attendant outfits or dildos at our upcoming shows… not because we don’t think that that stuff is cool… we just don’t have the funding for it.

Until the next episode.

PS In addition to just writing about Await Rescue and what we are up to, we are going to start writing about rock shows we attend, records we hear, and anything else that interests us that we think you may also enjoy reading about.  Hopefully you guys like this idea and will give us suggestions on what to write/ramble about!

Thank You!

Just wanted to say a quick “Thanks” to everyone who came out to The Lowell Brewery last Friday and rocked with us.

It was by far the best crowd we have played in front of in sometime, and you came out in such large numbers that we will be playing there on 4/23 with Prospect Hill once again.

We will have new tunes ready to go by April 23rd and promise to put on an even better show! No doubt.

This is the last big show we have planned in the Boston area until our 6/5 Release Show at The Middle East Upstairs, so don’t miss it!

Thank you very much.

3/12 Lowell Brewery w/Prospect Hill

Is there a better way to brave the winters of New England than a purely hard-hitting live rock show? Throw some friends, drinks, tantalizing music in the mix and we’d say no. March 12th marks the date that Await Rescue joins Prospect Hill in a tour kickoff at the accommodating Lowell Brewery in Lowell, MA. Join us and friends for a night of cut-loose, sing along, blast of enjoyment. Lets destroy this winter the best way possible; with music, screaming, drinking and dancing. Don’t let March hold you back and let’s have some fun!

Our Weekend with Prospect Hill

On Thursday morning, our next show was going to be until February… that all changed Thursday afternoon when we found out we would be playing Tammany Hall in Worcester and The Firehouse in Plainville, CT with our new friends, Prospect Hill, on Thursday and Friday night respectively.  Some bands for these shows fell through, and we were ready to load up the trailer and go rock some faces.

Before we recap our weekend’s adventures, we just want to say that Prospect Hill is an awesome band and even cooler people. They are all super nice, incredibly professional, great musicians/performers, and they party HARD.  We have never had this much fun playing shows with any other bands, and we can’t wait to play with them again at the Lowell Brewery on March 12th!

I am going to do this one in bullet points in no particular order as the ideas come to me because I am working on literally no sleep.  As I said, the dudes from Prospect Hill party HARD.

Thursday, January 21st, 2010:

• Played a sick show with Prospect Hill, Novus Dae, and Bound to Stand. Picked this show up last minute.  We figured we were going to practice anyways, so why not go rock out for some people.  I am glad we did because Prospect Hill invited us to play a sick show with them in Plainville, CT the following night at The Firehouse.
• The dudes from Bound to Stand invited Johnny onstage 3 times to take part in chugging contests. Johnny won all three.  Those guys are awesome.
• Andy Tats (Prospect Hill Guitarist) had a night for the ages.  His amplifier, pedalboard, and guitar all the shit the bed on him, so I gave him my guitar to use… which he also destroyed by ripping the input jack clear out of the guitar when the guitar cord got wrapped around his foot and he tripped.  Incredible.  But the good news is, he actually fixed my guitar up better than it was before!  He’s a legend, and he still played a killer show despite all the setbacks.
• Got home around 3:45am.  Rock show in CT tomorrow

Friday, January 22nd, 2010:

• Woke up around 2pm, hit the road at 5pm to pick up The Snake, and Johnny
• Get to The Firehouse around 8.  Sick venue that we would love to play again. Really cool spot.
• Rock commences promptly at 10:15pm. We got to play 8 songs, and even played “Salvadorian Gunslingers” and “Sleeping Satellites”, both of which we haven’t played in quite some time.

Conversation with man outside of show, while we were loading gear into the trailer after our set:

Man: “Why would you ever drive 2 hours down here from Boston to play a show and not make money?”

Jake: “Because it’s fucking sweet.”

Drew: “Plus, we are getting our gas paid for and a free hotel room!’

Man: “So you’re telling me you drove down here 2 hours for this?”

Drew: “Yeah.  What do you love to do more than anything?”

Man: “Fuck.”

Drew: “Would you drive 2 hours to fuck?”

Man: (Squints at Drew, takes a puff of his cigarette, smiles) “I would!”

Drew: “Well, playing shows is equivalent to fucking for us.”

Jacob: “Yeah we just fucked your eardrums!”

• Prospect Hill killed it again, and they had the best fan of all-time, named JT, in attendance.  JT could’ve been a character on Metalocalypse.  He kept taking the mic from Adam, in between their songs to yell/growl into the mic and hype up the band.  He was classic.  After the show, JT took the stage while the bands were breaking down their gear to rock out and sing along to the Guns n’ Roses and Metallica that he was pumping on the Jukebox.  I honestly must’ve said “good night” to him 5 times within 2 minutes before he actually left.
• JT was a champion, and he has even “copywritten” the hot new phrase, “Showroom Style”, which will be sweeping the nation very soon.  If you do something very well or better than others,then according to JT, you are doing it “Showroom Style”… I’m not going to lie… I kinda like it… I will never forget you JT!
• Andy Tats at 2am, “Would you rather stay at a hotel tonight, or a mansion?… that’s what I thought! We’re staying at  fucking mansion tonight!”
• Approximately 2:30am, we arrive at the “mansion”… it was the most standard bungalow I have ever seen in my life.  Not even close to a mansion.   The lady who owned the house was more than hospitable though and even had a sweet party for us!  You meet some of the best people ever after shows.
• Johnny and D-Rock from Prospect Hill dominated everyone in Beruit.
• We learned the “D.R.I.” is a band (we were told that we were “retards” for not knowing this already and having to ask what it stood for). D-Rock told the dude wearing the hoodie that it really stood for “Direct Rectal Insertion”.
• There was a dude at the party that looked exactly like Kevin Bacon.  Johnny told the dude that he looked like Kevin Bacon as we were leaving at around 4am… Kevin Bacon did not like hearing this.
• 3 hotels did not work out for various reasons.  It’s 6am, the sun is coming up, none of us have slept at this point, time to drive home 2 hours to Boston!  F Sleep.
• Get to the rehearsal space at 8am fueled up on coffee and Pop Tarts.  Keycards refuse to work.  No unloading of gear.
• Get to bed at 9am (Saturday January 23rd, 2010).  Wake up at 2pm to unload gear.

I love playing in a band.  I wouldn’t give it up for the world.

We are playing March 12th, at the Lowell Brewery with Prospect Hill!  Come out for a wild time!

Tour Blog Part 3 (Tampa & Miami) in Pictures

After you have enjoyed filling out our Mad lib recapping this portion of the tour that is listed below, you can take a glance at some pics from us in action in Florida… Be prepared to think of us differently.

Yes they are sleeveless, yes they are at a gas station, no Dana does not have pants on, & yes they are both barefoot and running on no sleep.

He could be fast asleep behind those big sunglasses... By the way, what's up with all these random/unnecessary lane changes, Johnny?

Dana in his room showing you just how sleeveless he really is. PS that tattoo says "Death". Madman.

Did you know that sleeves can make sweet headbands?

Await Rescue Tour Blog – Part 3 (Tampa and Miami, FL) Mad Lib

Well folks it’s time for another installment of Await Rescue’s 2009 Summer Tour blog: Tampa and Miami, FL!

But we decided rather than just having you read about the glory and see the pics we’ve allowed to slip up through the cracks to the internet, we figured we’d let you take part in the tour for yourselves. As if you were actually there.

You all know what a mad lib is, right?

No?

Well, it’s easy ….we wrote up the whole blog in it’s entirety with no details spared (even the horrible truths we’ve vowed to never reveal, at least not on the internet) ….

And then we deleted all of them…

And you get to replace them with the details conjured up by your very own filthy, foul imaginations, thus writing our Tampa and Miami blog for us.

If the blank detail asks for a noun, put a noun in there ….anything you want or think may very well have been the case. You could very well be right. Same for adjectives, verbs, etc. Get creative with it.

We’ve posted the whole thing right here for you. Just copy and paste it into a Word doc if you want , fill it in however you please (be gentle) and then email it back to us at awaitrescue@yahoo.com (or repost it as a reply right here on our WordPress blog page if you want .)

The best and most hilarious ones will make it online somewhere ( either here or on facebook most likely) and our Tour,  AS WRITTEN BY YOU … will forever live in infamy. Just as we planned it.

Get on it!

So, we hit the road again as early as possible and carry on towards Tampa. Only 9 hours away. A few stops for nourishment ( noun and noun sandwiches) and play (throwing our  noun(s) everywhere) made it more like a ten hour drive, but never-the-less we chugged into Tampa Florida: the home of ___noun(s)__________, a Hooters, and the Pegasus lounge.

We come to a stop in the parking lot, make a quick outdoor  noun (the first one since we played the show in Athens for some of us) and wandered into the dark, musty Pegasus Lounge. It was lit like a strip club, smelled like a trunk, and had a liquor store built into it. It felt like home. The bartenders were immediately noted for their slutty  noun(s) and eager  noun(s) , This could be a fun night.

With a basic game plan and knowing that there was a  noun literally down the road, we set off to verb and get things moving. After we hid the truck and trailer, a couple of us went in to  verb and lie to the  adjective clerk about the number of us. Again. The rest played some long-distance catch with a group of noun(s) . Never gets old.

So we showered, rested, and filled up on  noun(s) . Step one to a successful show complete. Now to kick off step two, so we head back for load in and ____noun .

We immediately cash in on our free  noun(s) and stand around for a bit. I believe it was around that time we were completely surprised by a  adjective ____looking Big Joe (Greaze and Drew’s father) and Freddy (Big Joe’s friend). It made this Tampa gem feel even more like home and got us ready to ___verb___ the unsuspecting  noun(s) of these regulars.

Needless to say, the show went well and we were ready for whatever could’ve been thrown our way that night. With all of our  noun(s) packed, we split ways and went on the search for good  noun(s) .

____name___ and  name had the hunger for some  noun(s) , so before leaving they grabbed some  noun(s) and  noun(s) ; the perfect combo for a goodnight.

Little did  name and  name know they’d be swimming in  noun(s)_at 8am and scurrying to walk back to the  noun where the rest of the guys were. Well, sometimes you have too much noun on tour and that’s just the case.

Around 9am they both had to trek roughly 4-5 miles back to the truck in order to make it to the next destination on time. This grueling task is only amplified when trying to recover from a  noun and  noun binge.

Dana made it back to the  noun first and had to lead the guys back to rescue their comrade, name .  With arms full of Dunkin Donuts and sin, Johnny struggled down the highway dripping with  noun(s) . It was just then the guys saw him and pulled him into the back of the cool AR wagon. It wasn’t over yet… we still had to  verb all the way to Miami.

Being that it was about 100 degrees and we had a stop coming up for petrol, we all decided that noun(s) were not needed. Right there at the gas station we all hopped out and ripped the noun(s) right off of ourselves. Equipped with gorgeous headbands made out of the  noun(s) and waters for everyone, we took off for Miami where we would do an impromptu afternoon Hot Topic acoustic set and later our real gig at Churchill’s Pub.

It’s tough to not want to  verb off  when you’re suffering from heat exhaustion, the AC is pumpin, and you have dark sunglasses on. That’s just what Johnny did. Not once, not twice, but about ten times while driving. We know this is not the best of information to divulge to the oh-so-innocent public, but it happened. Luckily Johnny, quickly thinking on his feet, was able to pop his ____noun(s)_ on to make it look like lane changes. Unnecessary ones.

Cut to Aventura Mall, Miami, Fl…

We hustled our gear into the poor, unsuspecting Hot Topic where we were playing and got ready to play a adjective acoustic set. But it was almost everything but that due to the fact that  we were road warriors on a binge of noun(s) .

Johnny, after a quick  noun in the back room of the Hot Topic, still wasn’t quite all there, but we played with a certain swagger. This swagger was apparently magnetic to the teenage ladies wearing ____noun(s)_, because even though Johnny basically bombed the acoustic set, we still found ourselves doing something that will always put a smile on any bands face: adjective    noun(s)  .

We  verb (past tense) everything:  noun(s) ,  noun(s) ,  noun(s) , bodies and a poor teenaged girl’s  noun(s) . Yes, a  noun(s) . It was epic. It was hilarious.

Wanting nothing more than to  verb the next  noun that night, we embarked for noun(s) in Miami. Upon arrival at our venue for the evening and with a quick assessment, we decided the beautifully dirty area was love at first sight. And then the wait was on.

When we say wait, we mean a seven-hour wait until we took the stage at 2 am. No problem, time for noun and  noun . Johnny sought solace and sleep in the 80 degree truck (with no AC) for a nap (it’s OK there was a bum taking money to watch out for your car), and we had some great friends (you know who you are) who followed us down there from home, which was pleasant.  Over the course of the night we did a bit of ____noun__ and a bit of _____noun___, chummed it up with some ____noun(s)___, a few cougars, many, many drunk ___noun___s and eventually ended up ________verb_______ and ___adjective______ out back behind the venue with some new friends of ours. We should also mention here that Jacob’s good friend, and former ____noun___ Meg, also made it out to see us play in Miami. We have a ____adjective_____ fan base.

The show had its gear-related (and drinking related) problems (Drew’s ___noun____ completely shit the bed and sounded like a swirling ____noun_____), but we put it behind us, quicky loaded up the trailer, and made our way to Auntie Cheri and Diane’s house in Ft. Lauderdale. The two most _adjective_______ and ____adjective_______ people on the face of the Earth, which happen to be Johnny’s two aunts. Also, we might add now that Johnny is  adjective . Just a thought.

With a glorious rest and even better hot  noun(s) , we awaited the arrival of our friends from home: Joe, Dave & Jon. True Road ___noun_____s. We had plans to eat dinner and then spend the night out in Miami with all the guys. Nothing better than a nice, hearty Italian  noun before a night full of drinking and____verb____.

After the dinner we enjoyed some martinis and karaoke: the Cutulle family past time. Unfortunately Jake got a hold of the infamous Bottomless Martini and suffered the consequences. This is a classic case of the Cutulle aunts refilling your ______noun___ before it’s even close to empty and you’re falling victim to __adjective___karaoke. Classic.

At this point in the night we were already finished, but we still mustered up the energy to drive Miami for the night. Miami can be a tough place to get used to, but not for us. We hit the streets with the ferociousness of noun(s) . With fire in our eyes and __verb___ to do, we roamed like  noun(s) . First thing’s first: take care of the Snake.

The combo of Bottomless Martinis,  noun(s) and  verb proved to be too much for the Snake’s stomach so he had to, let’s say, “ verb     “ himself at the parking garage. (All over the side of the parking garage and on a ____noun__ to be exact.) Don’t count him out yet though, he will eventually slither his way back into the scene.

With the Snake fast asleep in Joe’s hotel room, we scoured the streets of Miami finding good _____noun(s)__and really bad spots to drink our faces off at. One especially bad place shall remain nameless, but let us just say it cost us  noun(s) to get into to hang out with two other random guys and one noun dancing on the bar. We hightailed out of there faster than Chris Brown’s sponsors after the __noun___ incident. FAST!

I would say at this point we were all around a __number___ out of __number_ on the drunk scale and made the decision to leave Miami around 5 a.m having run through our fair share of successes and failures for one night. Joe and company made it safely back to what was the Snake pit temporarily, and Johnny and Greaze made it back to the truck with a _adjective___and ___adjective__ Snake behind the wheel. A adjective ,  adjective Johnny occupying the back, ___adjective__ Greaze in front, and Jacob The Snake Yackshaw driving, we carefully made it back to Ft. Lauderdale.

Between the ridiculous rush from venue to venue, the ever ____adjective_______ Johnny controlling the wheel, the ____adjective___ karaoke party and the blurry trip out of Florida, these 3 days were something to be ___verb_(past tense)__ forever…

Half _verb (past tense)_, anyways…

It holds a place in our ____noun(s)___, which are forever scarred by the meatball subs that were packed by Auntie Cheri and Diane which gave us unforgettable ___noun(s)______ burn for the entire ride to South Carolina.

And this is where our story ends for tonight, kids. Nothing will compare to Florida….or will it?

Await Rescue is #1 on FanTalk Radio’s Top 200 Chart!

We were informed last night that our “Hold the Ground” EP is currently #1 on Fantalk Radio’s Top 200 Chart!

We are pumped beyond belief about this and want to thank everyone who listened and called in during our live performance/interview last Saturday night and who have continued to call into the station to request us.

Thank you, and we hope you enjoy listening to the performance as much as we enjoyed putting it on!

One Sheet

Here is our recently completed “One Sheet”!  Let us know what you think of it, and please remember that this is tongue-in-cheek! haha

Await Rescue One Sheet

“Hold the Ground, the much-anticipated follow up to Await Rescue’s 2008 self-titled full-length, is the Napoleon of new releases – short, yet powerful and hell-bent on conquering the ears of those who allow it to invade their ipod playlists. This EP caps off a year’s worth of successful shows in the New England area, spanning from their sold-out album release show at Bill’s Bar in the shadows of Fenway Park in 2008 to the band’s first Boston-to-Miami-and-back East Coast tour in August of 2009.

The Hold the Ground EP was unveiled to yet another sold-out room at the Middle East Upstairs in Cambridge, MA on August 7, 2009, and it very notably marks a step in a new direction and a whole new journey through the depths of Rock n Roll for Await Rescue. The new EP is a stylistic foray into genres made famous by the likes of Incubus and Foo Fighters, a noticeable departure from the band’s more prog-rock oriented self-titled release. Await Rescue is, however, bringing along a few pieces of their roots for the ride; Hold the Ground features a refreshed and revamped incarnation of “Alright”, a fan favorite and crowd pleaser released originally on their self-titled album in 2008. Featuring fuller, more powerful, hard hitting choruses and bridges, the latest version also features Seattle native and Berklee graduate, Jacob Yackshaw, on bass. Trained in jazz and having been a part of numerous bands on both coasts, Jake brings new life to the rhythm section that elevates Await Rescue’s musical creations to new heights. Songs such as “Clipped Wings” and “Hold the Ground” serve as reminders to listeners of what has been fundamentally missing from Rock n Roll music today: Rock. 

Moving city by city and state by state, the boys plan to spread the fire that is Await Rescue via their purely enthralling live shows. And, like Napoleon returning from exile on the island of Elba to reclaim his empire, they refuse to be denied, because for Await Rescue, it is all about principle. It is about holding true to their vision of what good music is despite the current trends in the industry that seem to be killing Rock n roll. Make the best music possible and believe that people want to hear it. The people have responded …


“This hard rock quintet from our very own Boston blew me away. From start to finish they dove through some of the most innovative experimental music I have heard coming out of the local scene … the entire set was full of well-executed complex song writing, powerful energy, and great stage presence. There was no weak link to be found…” – Nick Grieco, Playground Boston”

We are going to be on the Radio Tomorrow Night!

Tomorrow night (11/7), Await Rescue will be featured as Fantalk Radio’s musical guest for the evening. We’ll be playing seldom heard acoustic renditions of songs off both our self-titled release in 2008 and our 2009 EP “Hold the Ground”

Fantalk Radio is a 2 hour program (8-10pm) based out of Portsmouth, NH and will feature both musical performances by the band as well as discussion about the band, our music and what’s on the horizon for us! 

Don’t miss this show! 

If you’re in the Portsmouth NH area you can tune in and listen on 106.1 FM, if not THE SHOW CAN BE STREAMED AT WWW.WSCAFM.ORG!

Thank you,

Await Rescue
