The band began in New Orleans in 2009 when Louie (ROYAL PENDLETONS, PURSUADERS, KAJUN SS, etc.) and his guitar slinging pal JULIEN FRIEND recruited drummer AARON HILL and bassist BENNETT BARTLEY. a 7\" on Douchemaster Records and tours of the Midwest, the West Coast, and Europe followed soon after. BENNY DIVINE (WIZZARD SLEEVE) replaced Bartley on bass shortly after the release of the band's debut album Painted White in June 2011. With it's lineup solidified and a rougher sound cultivated, the band was just starting to hit it's stride. Last year's superb \"(I'm Gonna) Love You Back to Life\" EP on HoZac was a brief taste of what Missing Monuments were capable of, and now the band truly delivers the goods on it's sizzling second LP. The words \"power pop\" always seem to come up whenever Louie Bankston is involved, and not without good reason. But that's just one element of many in what proves to be a righteous mix of sounds. Missing Monuments play gritty rock n' roll with a distinctly Southern flavor-blending in hints of pop, garage, soul, oldies, and even hard rock. Missing Monuments have the chops and the songs that cannot be beat. And lyrically and vocally, this is some of the most passionate and personal material Louie has turned out in years. If \"I Don't Share\" and \"Heart and Soul\" fail to leave you stunned, you might want to check yourself for a pulse. LP has 11 songs.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTracks:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1.1 Answer the Call \u003cbr\u003e1.2 Steelin' Time \u003cbr\u003e1.3 Another Girl \u003cbr\u003e1.4 Dead to Me \u003cbr\u003e1.5 Grizzly Star \u003cbr\u003e1.6 Super Hero \u003cbr\u003e1.7 Tru Luv \u003cbr\u003e1.8 Crash Landing \u003cbr\u003e1.9 I Don't Share \u003cbr\u003e1.10 Go Away \u003cbr\u003e1.11 Heart and Soul\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAudio Sample:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n                                           \u003ci\u003eAll soundclips are provided by Tidal and are for illustrative purposes only.
