Plus Project 86 turns 20 and launches Pledge Music campaign, The Ongoing Concept joins Oh, Sleeper for tour, and Thrice’s free tickets contest

Our long national nightmare is finally over! At last House Of Heroes has released their highly anticipated album Colors this weekend and you can find it, as well as the new album from Silent Planet, through the Shop page at radiou.com.

This year is Project 86’s twenty year anniversary and they’ve decided to commemorate it by putting together a new album. They just launched a Pledge Music drive in hopes of funding the new album and if you contribute you’ll get one new song instantly and the rest of the new tracks as quickly as they make them.

The Ongoing Concept has announced that they’ll be joining RadioU Battery band Oh, Sleeper on the Dead Of Summer Tour in a few weeks. The tour kicks off on July 21st and full tour dates are posted at radiou.com.

Thrice is heading out on tour later this year as well, and they’re giving you the chance to see them for free. Right now they’re running a contest through Tunespeak where you could win two tickets to their show that’s closest to you.
