October 18th, 2007--Relient K is in the running for McDonald’s current contest promotion where the winning act will
have their music featured in the fast food chain’s TV commercial, as well as the winner’s image plastered on over 300
million french fry containers worldwide. With voting already underway at http://www.mcdlive.com, the polls close on October 31st.
The band that brought you Five Score And Seven Years Ago,
mmhmm, Two Lefts Don’t Make a Right…(But Three Do) and
The Anatomy of the Tongue in Cheek –also recently kicked off a
30-city, co-headlining tour with Switchfoot and are anticipating the release of their first-ever, full-length
Christmas album: Let It Snow, Baby…Let It Reindeer.
The album, scheduled for release by Capitol Music Group/Gotee on October 23rd, features Relient K’s take on 10 holiday
classics and six original songs.
Relient K’s Five Score And Seven Years Ago debuted at #6 on The Billboard 200 earlier this year, becoming the
band’s highest charting album to date and receiving rave reviews. “Five Score features irresistible pop-punk
hooks and glorious Beach Boys-style harmonies, all building to an 11-minute mini-rock opera that recalls – and equals –
The Who’s ‘A Quick One While He’s Away,’” said USA Today while Alternative Press praised the album’s “radio-ready power
pop goodness.”
