NEW ANNOUNCEMENTS
ROCKET SCIENCE (single launch) with I Heart Hiroshima and special guest
Sat 10 May 2008
Rocket Science, a band renowned for their organ-driven rock ’n’ roll sound and stupendous shows, released three albums to rave reviews. Ready for a new leap of independence, the band rose to the challenge by self-producing their new album ‘Different Like You’. The result is their strongest, most confident and rollicking platter to date, filled with garage snarl and psychedelic whimsy.
