Victory and Associates – Party Savior 7”
One Mr. Conan Neutron has been plenty kind in sharing his various music projects with myself and the blog over the past couple years, which I am quite thankful for, being a fan and such. It was only a matter of time after the previous project Mount Vicious dissolved that there would be something new on the horizon. Sure enough the transition to another musical outlet was pretty much instant and with that I am glad to be posting a couple tracks from the latest in Neutron’s cannon Victory and Associates. Along with Neutron in the band are members Paul Miller, Evan Gritzon, Mouse Menough, and Shane Otis whom are all pretty much veterans of rock at this point having been in numerous bands themselves.
With that said, it’s probably pretty safe to assume that Victory and Associates is very much a rock band, and that would be correct. Over the years Neutron has moved steadily from one thing to another, leaving the noise/post-punk style of Replicator behind and shifting gradually towards to a purer rock sound. Mount Vicious was a rather noticeable change, however Victory and Associates takes the fun loving/good time party rock vibe even further and has come out as the purest effort yet. It sort of reminds me of a RFTC at times, obviously minus the horn section, however the energy and anthemic qualities are all there that makes this debut 7-inch from the band a fun time.

The band also has a track on the compilation Karl Rove: Courage and Consequence, which has a collection of other rather cool bands to check out as well if you get a chance. The comp is being spear headed by Mr. Neutron and has been made available for free digital download. For more information about the compilation and what it’s all about, head on over here!
Pre-orders are currently being taken now for the 7-inch over at the bands Bandcamp site. Definitely pick up a copy if you enjoy what you hear.

Soon! We should have the physical records by mid-June.
I wish it was earlier, but when you’re self funded… well… you can really only move as fast as life will let you.
We’ll have pre-order info up soon!
