& as a random side note, this is one of the bands that I can say "I knew about them before they became big!" ;)
Nine Lashes is based out of Birmingham, AL. Their first release, "Escape", came in Sept. of 2008 & was produced by Travis Wyrick (Éowyn, Spoken, Breaking the Silence/The Letter Black). They got signed by Tooth & Nail Records just this year, after Trevor McNevan (vocalist; studio guitarist for Thousand Foot Krutch) brought them to the attention of the label. Turns out, as Nine Lashes guitarist Jonathan Jefferson explains, "Trevor was given our independent album by a friend… Unexpectedly, this was the show that he had to be rushed to the hospital to get his appendix removed. Because he had some downtime to recover, he had time to listen to our music". (See - appendixes do have a purpose!). Their upcoming album is supposed to be released "early 2012 Jan. or Feb.". This song is from "Escape".
& for kicks, here's "Anthem for the Lonely", a new single they just released recently..:
