BURNING BRIDES TO RELEASE THIRD ALBUM, "HANG LOVE"
New Deal Allows Brides to Own Master, Maintain Creative and Marketing
Control of Project

"Burning Brides have plenty of angst and tumult in their attack, but they
yowl with smarts and good tunes." -- Rolling Stone

Los Angeles, CA - (March 7, 2007) - Having played the major label game,
released 2004's critically-acclaimed "Leave No Ashes," been caught up in
label downsizing, and then walked away with their artistic integrity intact
and a six-figure check in their pockets, BURNING BRIDES are back with a
brand new album - but on their own terms. On April 24, "Hang Love" will be
released on the independent Modart imprint with distribution through
Caroline/EMI. Said Burning Brides' guitarist/vocalist Dimitri Coats, "We
may be one of the few bands doing it right now, but this is the way the
future is going to be. We own the masters, we dictate how and when we do
things, we take the risks."

Modern Artists Management¹s Les Borsai, who manages Burning Brides and
oversees the Modart imprint, presented the band with a business model in
which they could retain control over how ³Hang Love² was marketed, promoted,
and sold, and yet reap the majority share of the profits. ³Major label
deals are no longer structured to develop artists,² said Borsai, ³and many
bands get dropped after their first album, saddled with a huge debt to the
label. This arrangement will allow the Brides to make music and make a
living.² Caroline¹s sales staff will pound both the digital and
brick-and-mortar pavements, and the band will tour extensively.

"Hang Love," Burning Brides' third album, was produced by Coats and is a
raging slab of towering riffs and melodies, unrelentingly heavy rock that
coexists with a keen sense of pop melody. The band - Coats, his real-life
bride bassist Melanie Coats, and new drummer Pete Beeman (Guzzard), teamed
up last fall with engineer Mathias Schneeberger (Joseph Arthur, St. Vitus,
Mark Lanegan) and recorded the album over a six-week period at
Schneeberger's Arcadia, CA studio.

"We knew we had to make up for lost time and come out with the best Brides
album yet," confides Dimitri. "'Hang Love' is by far our heaviest album and
the best example of what and who we are. Our band is all about opposites,
we've always been into merging horror and humor with beauty and hope."

The album explodes with the first track, "Ring Around the Rosary," its
religious imagery mixed with some wicked metal. "Waring Street" is written
from the perspective of a serial killer loose in L.A.'s exclusive Hancock
Park area, "Unglued" is for anyone who has lost someone they loved, and
"Feel No Shame," with its Black Sabbath-meets-ZZ Top feel, is a song you
play in your car, cranked up high while driving down the highway and feeling
badass. "She Comes To Me," considered by Dimitri to be the record's
centerpiece, was written as a prayer to "please come back" when he and
Melanie were broken up for a time.

Burning Brides released its first album in 2001, "Fall of the Plastic
Empire," made for $5000 in a motorcycle garage in Philadelphia, and earned
its fair of share of comparisons to Nirvana's "Bleach." The band gained a
reputation for being great live, became a buzz band and found themselves in
a huge bidding war. Dimitri recalls, "We were the last of the unknown bands
to get a million dollar record deal." "Leave No Ashes," produced by George
Drakoulias (The Black Crowes, Tom Petty), was released in 2004, and received
great press - Esquire said that the album "matched sonic hugeness with
superbly crafted songs...a moody masterpiece." Despite the initial success,
the band was jettisoned from its record label, suffered drug problems,
personal and professional splits; then reconciliation, a move to Los
Angeles, marriage, a new drummer, and a fresh start.

Burning Brides, who have shared the stage with Audioslave, A Perfect Circle,
White Stripes, Queens of the Stone Age, the Melvins and Mastodon, plan to
tour extensively in support of "Hang Love." Dates will be announced
shortly.
