A few sites have posted this article about FTSK & their 3 part album coming up.
Universal Motown Records will release a deluxe version of the debut album from Forever The Sickest Kids entitled, Underdog Alma Mater - Deluxe, today. Since releasing their first full-length album over a year ago, the six-man band from Dallas has been touring the U.S. successfully and building a fan base from the grass roots up. The past year has been a thrilling whirlwind for the band. They could be seen on the cover of Alternative Press, gracing the pages of US Weekly and performing on Conan O’Brien’s late night talk show. They have toured Europe and performed in Japan and even re-recorded their hit single “Whoa-Oh (Me VS. Everyone) with Disney star, Selena Gomez.
Now, FTSK is going to make this next year even more memorable. In a forward thinking move, the band is forgoing the traditional road to making records. Instead of making a full album follow up to Underdog Alma Mater, the band will be releasing three shorter albums of new material. These albums will have six songs on each and will be released over the next year. The first of these will be available this fall with the other two coming in winter and spring of 2010.
Jonathan Cook, Caleb Turman, Marc Stewart, Austin Bello, Kent Garrison, Kyle Burns formed Forever The Sickest Kids in 2006 and within four months, the band had recorded an EP, Television Off, Party On and written many of the songs for their full-length debut, Underdog Alma Mater. Then the band started playing shows, including a three-week stint on the indie stage of the Warped Tour. As rigorous as Warped was, it paid off. Before Warped, Forever the Sickest Kids averaged 10,000 to 12,000 daily plays on their MySpace page. When they got home, the number jumped from between 15,000 and 22,000. The band’s fan base will continues to grow this summer as they embark on Warped Tour once again with dates from July through August.
