ANOTHER ANIMAL To Perform At Indiana's X-FEST

August 19, 2007

ANOTHER ANIMAL, the project featuring three members of GODSMACK, will headline the side stage at this year's X-Fest on October 6 at the Verizon Wireless Music Center in Noblesville, Indiana. Also scheduled to appear are SMASHING PUMPKINS, FUEL, HURT, ALTER BRIDGE, BLACK LIGHT BURNS, SICK PUPPIES, A BAND CALLED PAIN and THE BRAVERY.

ANOTHER ANIMAL has posted its first single "Broken Again", on the the group's MySpace page. The song comes off the band's self-titled debut album, which is scheduled for release on October 2.

ANOTHER ANIMAL features GODSMACK guitarist Tony Rombola, bassist Robbie Merrill and drummer Shannon Larkin, along with former UGLY KID JOE vocalist Whitfield Crane. Although the album has been completed for a while, Merrill told Launch that he, Rombola and Larkin didn't want any conflicts with their day job. "Legitimately, we were better off waiting until the GODSMACK cycle was done, 'cause we didn't want to compete, you know," he said. "We didn't want any of that type thing. And then it just had to be, we had to just have patience, and let the GODSMACK cycle do its thing, and then we're gonna go out and see what happens."

The album also features guitar and vocal contributions from GODSMACK's original guitarist, Lee Richards.

Tour plans for the act have yet to be announced.
