The weeks leading up to the release of IF, have only proven the band’s popularity within their fervent fan base and the music-loving public. The first single released from the album, “Mastermind,” sold over i ,000 downloads on their first day of release. Their second single, “Never Wanted To Dance” debuted at #1 on Billboard’s Hot Dance SinglesS Sales chart and has remained there, so far, for three weeks! The single also hit #1 on Billboard’s Hot Single Sales. Over at radio, the single was crowned by KROQ LA’s Jed the Fish as his “Catch of the Day” and at 89X Detroit, it is the current “Cagematch” champ three days in a row and still going strong! On the Internet, MSI have scored an impressive #1 MySpace Band in any country and any genre.
About the direction of IF, singer Jimmy Urine comments, ”The fact is that we get bored easily and we like to hear many different kinds of music. .. often at the same time. This record reflects that, and in doing so, this will be our most diverse album to date as well as one of our longest.”
With a pre-release track record as tremendous as the activity surrounding both “Mastermind” and “Never Wanted to Dance”, the release of IF on April 29th will undoubtedly be equally as awe-inspiring. Mindless Self Indulgence will be on tour starting the end of April straight through the Summer. The Birthday Massacre will be main support with Combichrist, Tub Ring, A Kiss Could Be Deadly, among other bands as secondary support.
