Los Angeles, CA. (Top40 Charts/ 909 Records) - On a scale from 1 to 10 of great CD's out right now, hot and heavy LA rockers Shameless' new CD, "Now Playing" on LA based 909 Records, rates as an 11 in all areas including lyric content, professional execution of musical performance, marketability, broad audience appeal, CD cover, production quality and in every area! It also rates as an 11 on the Richter Scale, as Shameless' CD "Now Playing" rocks, in every sense of the word! To quote the band Shameless, "The time has come for shameless to bring rock and roll back to the music industry"; and indeed they are a band of their word, as Shameless delivers some very high caliber hard driving, butt kicking Rock & Roll, reminiscent in quality and sound as such great bands as Guns n' Roses, AC/DC, Rush, Red Hot
Chili Peppers and other greats in the genre and vein, with completely original musical content by this band on the CD, and super tight execution of their musicianship by all performers of this exceptional band, complete with very impressive vocal performances by lead vocalist, Steven 'Blade' Hunter.
We at Mindsweep Entertainment & Promotions receive a very large number of CD's from some of the best up and coming and long time established bands within the music industry, and are constantly listening to them as we work, so it takes a whole lot of talent to stop the executive team of Mindsweep in our tracks and take notes. Shameless is that band of extreme talent that IS the exception, not the norm! Apparently, we at Mindsweep are not the only ones who have noticed this as well, as Shameless has already scored a nomination for Best Hard Rock Band in the Southern California Music Awards in 2006, and was nominated The Best Hard Rock Band for Rock City News, "The Rockies" Awards in both 2005 and 2006 and nominated Best Metal Band in 2006 by the Inland Empire Music Awards.
To add to the band's already impressive list of professional credits, Shameless has toured extensively both nationally and internationally, having performed throughout the US, Mexico, Japan, Brazil and Europe, and has performed with such world renown headliners as Great White, Flock of Seagulls, Nelson, Warrant, and Stephen Pearcey of Ratt. When not touring, Shameless can be seen performing in such legendary and esteemed Southern California area venues as The Roxy Theatre in Hollywood, Whiskey a Go Go in Hollywood, The Troubadour, The Viper Room, Spanky's and others. Shameless also stays in high demand in venues in Las Vegas, Washington and Arizona. And will be appearing at this year's esteemed Rock-It Fest, June 16th, in Clarksburg, West Virginia.
With an already vast and steadily growing number of fans, both throughout the US and internationally, Shameless is receiving and steadily gaining airplay for their hit single "She's So Pretty" from their sizzling new CD "Now Playing", on mainstream, college and internet radio stations all throughout the US, South America, Europe and Japan. To quote the material from the band's one sheet, "The video for 'She's so Pretty' recently made its way to MTV Brazil and you can expect the American version by the end of the year." Shameless has been No 1 for eleven weeks in a row on the Largest Internet Radio Syndication www.live365.com and also a featured artist on XM Satellite Radio as well.
Already with plans for a world tour with dates planned in the US, Mexico, Brazil, Chile, and Europe to promote this stellar CD, Shameless is the band to catch for a great concert experience of outstanding and FUN Rock & Roll.
