Bishop Celebrates Opening of Ogden Vet Center
WASHINGTON – The U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs announced the opening of a new Vet Center in North Ogden. The VA Vet Center Program was established in 1979 and its Centers provide individual and group counseling for veterans, service members, and their families. Veterans can also count on bereavement counseling, sexual trauma counseling, and help with substance abuse. Rep. Bishop (R-UT) offered the following statement regarding the opening of the new community-based Vet Center:
“It’s about time northern Utah’s military veterans have convenient access to the care they so rightly deserve. Veterans make up one of the most resilient and noble portions of our society. As a community, we must have their backs. The opening of this Center in North Ogden represents our commitment to supporting vets even after their days in uniform are done.”
BACKGROUND: For over a decade, Rep. Rob Bishop has been unrelenting in his commitment to see a Vet Center in northern Utah. Starting with a letter to then VA Secretary Jim Nicholson in 2007, Bishop continued his efforts, alongside the veteran community, through 8 subsequent acting and confirmed VA Secretaries and 3 administrations.

DEBUT ALBUM SET TO RELEASE MAY 11, 2018
New York, NY - April 27, 2018 - Le Voyageur, the electronic brainchild of New York City-based rock musician, Alexander Fairchild, has released the third single "Stomach" off of the project's debut album Finally. The record is due out May 11, 2018 via Tooth & Nail Records. The single is exclusively premiering today on The Line of Best Fit, which you can listen to HERE.
The project is a manifestation of Fairchild's love affair with Paul McCartney's Wings, Thom Yorke's Eraser, and his longstanding affection for analog electronics. On the track, he shares, "The stages of love are many and diverse and equally important, even the couples crisis of consciously deciding that a season of life has come to an end, and a move to New Jersey from your shack in the Village is in order."
In Le Voyageur's first full-length project, humankind has moved past exclusive habitation on Earth and the universe is in chaos. Newly discovered scientific methods, unexplored foreign planets, and ungovernable galactic battles provide the backdrop for Finally, a concept record about one man's quest for redemption.
Finally is set to release on May 11, 2018. For more information, please visit http://smarturl.it/LeVoyageurFinally.

Bad Frequencies was produced by Hawthorne Heights along with Nick Ingram (Hotel Books, Capital House Studio), and mixed by Cameron Webb (Grammy Winner, NOFX, Social Distortion).

LIMBS
Release Debut Full-Length Album
Father's Son
Out Now via UNFD
Available for Purchase at unfd.lnk.to/FathersSon
Streaming via Spotify &
Previously featured on Revolver, Metal Injection,
Creative Loafing, Metal Insider, and more
Tampa, FL - April 27, 2018 - The wait is over for post-hardcore quintet LIMBS' debut full-length album Father's Son. The record, which is out now via UNFD, gives listeners a dark and brooding look at a young man's journey out of religion as he comes to terms with both his upbringing and his own actions. Fans can stream it now on Spotify and Apple Music. For more information or to purchase the album, please visit: unfd.lnk.to/FathersSon.
On the new album, vocalist Chris Costanza shares: "We're excited to release our first LP. We've been working on it for years at this point and it feels good to get it out."
LIMBS previously released singles "Tangled Hands" and "Father's Son." With adds to top Spotify playlists like Metalcore and New Metal Tracks, as well as Apple Music playlists like Breaking Metal, these singles have seen great successes on streaming services.
Originally formed in 2013 under a different moniker, LIMBS released their debut album entitled Dead Ends before undergoing a fairly drastic lineup change. After taking eight months for reformation, LIMBS regrouped and released their sophomore release, Admission, in late 2014, to copious amounts of positive feedback.
The following year LIMBS toured the DIY circuits relentlessly, dropping singles and gaining fans along the way. After a tour with Saosin, the band recorded a three song EP entitled SLEEP, which was mixed by Beau Burchell (S
aosin) and mastered by Mike Kalajian, and was eventually re-recorded with Tim McTague (Underoath).
Flash forward to 2018 and LIMBS have found a new home with UNFD, where they will drop their debut album Father's Son on April 27. A conceptual album following a young man breaking free from his indoctrinated upbringing, the album explores the harm it causes and the strength in reclaiming your own life.
"It's loosely based off of some of my own personal experiences and feelings," explains frontman Chris Costanza. "It begins with the young man feeling distraught and angry after coming to some realizations about his upbringing and the harm it has done to both himself and others. It slowly turns inward as he reflects on himself and takes personal responsibility for his actions and deals with the aftermath of making such a drastic change in his life."
A brooding and cathartic album Costanza describes as "Norma Jean meets Radiohead," Father's Son came together with help from Tim McTague in the pre-production stages before moving on to record with Beau Burchell - the same team behind SLEEP.
As LIMBS - rounded out by Daniel Nelson (drums), Joshua Kowalski (bass), Jordan Hunter (guitar), andTyler Martin (guitar) - prepare to spend the next five months criss-crossing the highways of America showcasing Father's Son with the likes of Underoath, Veil of Maya, and on the Vans Warped Tour, Costanza reflects on the life lessons expressed within the album.
"The biggest lesson I've learned is that love comes in many forms. Some people come at love from a religious standpoint, others from a spiritual standpoint, some from a more pragmatic place. But the most important thing I've realized is that (at least to me) it shouldn't matter where that love comes from. Seeing love in so many forms and from so many different viewpoints has been extremely eye opening for me and helped me broaden my view of love and how it's given/received. I think that's something I'll never stop learning."
