Having recently changed their name, the four members of Invade Rome have been playing together for the past five years and continue to slay audiences with their unique take on psychedelic rock and roll. Refusing to be pigeonholed as simply "stoner-rock," Invade Rome spent the last year working very hard on over-compressing big drum sounds and saturating the tape machine with extra guitar for their forthcoming record, Light Eyed and Villainous. To help create this sought after wall of sound, Invade Rome enlisted the help of friend and producer/engineer Beau Sorenson (Sparklehorse, Death Cab for Cutie) and set up camp only 70 miles from home at the storied Smart Studios in Madison , WI., Light Eyed will be the bands first LP released on their very own imprint label, VTK Music, and will be available on limited colored vinyl, CD and all digital media in December of 2008.
Invade Rome are also building momentum through spirited live performances throughout the country, recently sharing tour dates with the Secret Machines, Dead Confederate, the Dears and De Novo Dahl, as well as major festival performances alongside The Flaming Lips, My Morning Jacket, The Go! Team, and Kings of Leon.
