All American Rejects
They’ve sold over three and a half million albums worldwide, their last release, Move Along went gold in the UK and they have unforgettable hits like Dirty Little Secret, Swing, Swing and Move Along to their name.
Now after spending the best part of 2008 in the studio, The All-American Rejects are ready to unleash their third studio album, When The World Comes Down. A collection of the kind of upbeat, pop - twinged rock tracks the Rejects do better than anyone .
From the free download, Real World, (available from December 5th) to Mona Lisa (When The World Comes Down) to Breakin’, a killer track that came out of a bus ride the band did together, this is a collection certain to take AAR to another level.
Gives You Hell the first single from the album, is set for UK release on 2nd February. It’s currently #2 on US alternative itunes chart (behind The Killers ‘Human’) and the larger than life video has already had one and a half million views on youtube.
Beyond a band, AAR is four friends who discovered one other and scored the American dream. Tyson and Nick founded the group and released the EP, Same Girl, New Songs in the summer of 2001. Mike and Chris joined in 2002 and the new quartet hit stores with their self-titled album, The All-American Rejects in 2003, scoring commercial success with the single, Swing Swing.
They toured tirelessly and in July 2005, and returned with Move Along, a breakout effort featuring three smash hits, Dirty Little Secret, It Ends Tonight, and the anthemic title track. From down home southern boys to multi-platinum stars, AAR broke through and haven’t looked back.
