Trekky Records is thrilled and honored to announce the details for the release of Frontier Justice, the new album from Embarrassing Fruits. In many ways, Frontier Justice is the first fully realized album from the band. After a series of line-up changes, album delays and promising EPs, this will be the first timely artistic statement from a now permanent trio: Joe Norkus, Lee Shaw and John Neville. Bassist Lee Shaw has risen to become an equal creative force in the band, which was previously an outlet for only Joe Norkus' catchy, textural rock songs. Shaw composed almost half of the songs on Frontier Justice, bringing his love for classic rock and aggressive pop into the deepening inventory of Fruits' strengths as rock songwriters. Both Norkus and Shaw expound upon the frustrations and joys of navigating the nebulous world of late 20s life in the over saturated, vanishing frontier of America.
Frontier Justice will be released on September 21 in Trekky Records' signature 3-part package, including a vinyl record, a CD and an MP3 download. This "everything you could ever need" package is an active attempt to prove that hard copy music is still important, and that taking the time to sit down and listen to a record is still a fulfilling experience. The CD and MP3 download are included so that you can successfully envelop yourself in the blissful distortion of Embarrassing Fruits' songs whether you're in your car, at your computer, or walking around town with your MP3 player.
If you can't wait until September 21 to hear some of Fruits' new songs, we sympathize, so we're happy to release the first single from Frontier Justice, "Long Distance Breakup Summer", a brooding love-circle anthem featuring lead vocals from bassist Lee Shaw. Full tracklist and video preview below:
