Adrift Post "Pushed Aside" Online

Adrift issue the following press release:

Adrift have posted the song, 'Pushed Aside,' from their debut full-length album "Absolution" on their Myspace page. This song is being marketed by Adrift as the first "single," or track formally released by Adrift to mainstream media channels such as radio, internet radio, and satellite radio.

When asked about the wisdom of releasing a single directly to the public instead of exclusively building supply and demand through such traditional media outlets, Adrift drummer Kevin Astl stated:

"We just want to get the music out there to the people, our friends and fans. We're not thumbing our nose at radio and would never do so, but we feel that our music should have as much reach as possible. If that includes radio support, then we welcome it, but in conjunction with our plans to push the record. We just feel that radio shouldn't be the ONLY place you can hear Adrift's music. "Pushed Aside" is one of those songs that people tell us is strong, melodically heavy and memorable. We've had such a positive response to the record that we want the word to spread, and we want the music to keep flowing – check out Adrift and let us know what you think of the tunes. See you at a show soon. Cheers!"
