screaming secrets coming December 5th!

From our friends at our new label, Noise Pollution Records:

Noise Pollution is excited to announce the upcoming release of Second Story Man’s Screaming Secrets on both CD and LP. This will be their first new record since 2006’s Red Glows Brighter. Screaming Secrets was recorded over the course of two years with Kevin Ratterman and is easily the best work of their career. Noise Pollution and Second Story Man both began around the same time over 12 years ago and have followed parallel paths since, so we’re stoked to finally have them on the roster. The release show will be at Skull Alley on Saturday, December 5th with Straight A’s and Softcheque opening.

sept. 4th @ skull alley

FRIDAY SEPT 4th: Second Story Man will be playing last on this show with some great bands.  Descriptions c/o Jamie Prott of Skull Alley:

DESOLATION WILDERNESS (from Olympia on K Records, awesomely ambient indie/pop, www.myspace.com/desolationwilderness )

NAKATOMI PLAZA (from Brooklyn. They go way back with Louisville, seriously they played the Brycc House’s 1st or 2nd show and have been regulars ever since: www.myspace.com/nakatomiplaza.)

ATTICA! ATTICA! - (acoustic solo project from the former singer of Marathon/De La Hoya. www.myspace.com/atticaattica)

ALCOHAWK – (playing because paul wouldn’t be half as good as he is at guitar if he hadn’t had his young mind blown by oscar from nakatomi plaza’s chops)

mixing!

We are doing the final mixing and sequencing of our new album next week, then we’re shipping it off  for mastering to Shelley Anderson at Georgetown Masters in Nashville.  So excited!
