Hail Social

HAIL SOCIAL TO RELEASE MODERN LOVE AND DEATH
After the buzz surrounding their self titled debut, Hail Social will self release their long awaited full length, Modern Love and Death.

Often described as ethereal, stylistically-lithe dance-rock, Hail Social, who call South Jersey their home base, beautifully combine sonic washes of brisk sounding beats with fresh sounding lyrics and steady pulsing verses. Modern Love and Death features brand new, rich and diverse songs.

Spearheaded by lyricists/singer-songwriter Dayve Hawk was joined by drummer Matt Maraldo in his early twenties. Hail Social completed their line-up with a cutting no-nonsense bassist Dan Henry.

After recording four demos, the band caught the attention of Interpol. Unsigned, and virtually unknown outside of their home turf, Hail Social earned a coveted opening slot on their tour with the Secret Machines. The band garnered tons of great press including a Spin.com "Band of the Day" accolade immediately and their live show didn't deny.

The recording of their self-titled debut in 2005 on Polyvinyl Records soon followed. Hawk teamed up with Brian McTear (Apollo Sunshine/ Spinto Band) to record their debut and worked with him again on Modern Love and Death.

"When Hawk breaks in with his smooth, teen-idol sounding vocals, you'll be fighting the almost irresistible urge to shake it."- Spin.com

"Other post-punkers traffic in midnight but Hail Social ride with the high beams on. It's as if the shades have been pulled and the light is
flooding in, turning murk into melody and turning the graveyard into a ballroom."- Philadelphia Weekly

"some bands burn white hot, but Hail Social burn hot pink"-The Stranger

"everyone should agree that this debut is the model of efficiency."- Pitchfork

Hail Social has also shared the stage with the Unicorns, Ted Leo, TV on the Radio, Of Montreal and Elefant.
