Against Me! Release "Russian Spies"/"Occult Enemies" Digital/7" Today (June 14)

Gainesville's Against Me! is excited to announce the release of its brand new, two-song digital/7". Out today via Sabot Productions and available through iTunes and Total Treble mailorder, "Russian Spies"/"Occult Enemies" was recorded at the storied Smart Studios in Madison, WI, prior to its closing and is the first recording to feature the band's explosive new drummer Jay Weinberg. The track "Russian Spies" can be streamed through front man Tom Gabel's blog now and can be purchased digitally through iTunes HERE and physically through Total Treble HERE.

In addition to the release of the new 7", Against Me! recently announced the formation of their own record label, Total Treble Music. Within the US and Canada, the label will be distributed via RED/MRI and will be the home of all future Against Me! releases. Having spent their career on both major and independent labels of varying sizes, the creation of Total Treble Music will afford the band full control of their creative and professional destiny moving forward. The band hopes to partner with other labels for the rest of the world for future releases.

Currently the band is on their June US headline tour that recently began in Millvale, PA, on Monday, May 31. Touring with supporting acts Screaming Females and Lemuria, the three-week tour is continuing to hit a number of major markets across a large portion of the country and will culminate in a performance at First Avenue in Minneapolis, MN, on June 21. Immediately following the headline tour, the band will be performing as part of this year's Vans Warped Tour through August. Additionally, the band will be performing a number of dates supporting blink-182 and Rancid in Canada from August 25-31. Tickets for the current headline tour can be purchased through the band's Web site: http://www.againstme.net/events
