WALKING PAPERS - the band that includes Duff McKagan (GUNS N' ROSES / LOADED / VELVET REVOLVER) and Barrett Martin (MAD SEASON / SKIN YARD / SCREAMING TREES) has issued the following statement:
"We've been getting alot of emails from people wondering why the Walking Papers album is no longer on iTunes and other download sites around the world. Well, the reason is a good one: Walking Papers has recently signed a global deal with Tom Lipsky's new label, Loud & Proud Records, and our debut album is being re-released through Tom's label and Sony/BMG worldwide."
"The release dates vary around the globe, but for North America its August 6th (just about a month from now) and for Europe, South America, and the rest of the world, it'll be in the first week of October. Or rather, 'Rocktober', as we say in Seattle. So, stay tuned for updates here, and we will remind you as the album comes out officially in your territories. And watch for us as we continue our world tour, bringing our live show to cities and countries around the world. We've had a really wonderful time playing all these amazing places, meeting new friends, and we want to sincerely thank everyone for coming to see us at these shows and festivals. North America, get ready for the Uproar Tour starting August 9th, featuring ALICE IN CHAINS, JANE'S ADDICTION, and Walking Papers! Thank you all so very much."
