“We are incredibly excited to get behind this album and to help expose these killer tunes to the masses” says label owner Josh Hogan, “not only is Rusted Dawn a great addition to the growing and diverse D5R family but there is no doubt that they are one of the hardest working bands out east and anyone who knows D5R knows that hard work is integral to us!”Jeremy Goddard, who provides vocals and rhythm guitars for the band commented, "We're super stoked on having our album released under the Diminished Fifth flag. Josh and the D5R crew have been pretty damn supportive of RD since they first caught wind of us, so it's great to finally be working on this level with people so pumped on all the bands and tunes they represent here in the Maritimes.” His brother in crime Justin who handles the lead guitars duties added "It's really great to have someone as excited about this release as we are. D5R has been helping to put a lot of east coast talent into the spotlight here, and across Canada and their efforts aren't going unnoticed."
