FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
ON THE ROAD WITH MARSHALL MODE FOUR
MELVILLE, NY, August 29, 2005 — Marshall's MODE FOUR amp is appearing on many summer and fall tours this year. Among the artists who rely on their MODE FOUR amps are John 5 — out on tour with Rob Zombie — and Lupus Thunder of The Bloodhound Gang.During the 2005 Ozzfest tour, John 5 used his MODE FOUR amp for its sheer power, flexible design and ability to deliver his signature sound. Describing MODE FOUR's appeal, he remarks, "It's got the best crunch distortion in the world and it's got an incredible clean tone." MODE FOUR is also featured on his second instrumental solo album, Songs for Sanity (Shrapnel Records), scheduled for release in September 2005. For more information, please visit www.john-5.com.
Alt/pop rockers The Bloodhound Gang are getting ready to embark on a year-long US/European tour starting in September. Guitarist Lupus explains why his Marshall MODE FOUR amp will be accompanying him throughout the tour, "I'm very proud of having moved to Marshall; my previous amps just didn't give me what I wanted in terms of hard, skull crushing distortion with a beautiful clean. The balls-out distortion I've got going now makes me very happy, and the clean channel has done wonders for our live sound. I'm not a tech guy when it comes to amps, but I know this: turn on a Marshall and it'll sound better than anything out there. Spend five minutes twisting knobs and you'll sound better than half the records out there."
MODE FOUR can also be heard on their new album Hefty Fine (Geffen Records), which will be released on September 27, on upcoming TV performances and on the video for their new single, "Foxtrot Uniform Charlie Kilo," currently airing on MTV and Fuse.
