History

The band formed in 1989 in Simi Valley, California. The original lineup consisted of vocalist Jason Cruz, guitarists Jake Kiley and Rob Ramos, bassist Jim Cherry and drummer Adam Austin. After releasing a self-titled 7" record, they became one of the first bands to be signed to Fat Wreck Chords, the record label owned and operated by Fat Mike of the band NOFX. Austin left the band in 1992 and was replaced by Brad Morrison who also left the band and was replaced on drums by Jordan Burns, formerly of fellow Simi Valley natives Ten Foot Pole. Their first album, Another Day in Paradise, was released in May 1994. Suburban Teenage Wasteland Blues followed in 1996. In 1998 they released The Skinny Years...Before We Got Fat, a compilation album of their pre-Fat Wreck Chords material.

    Overloaded: The Singles Collection is the first greatest hits album of English girl group Sugababes. It was released on 10 November 2006—almost one year following the departure of founding member Mutya Buena and the introduction of her replacement, Amelle Berrabah. Overloaded features twelve of the group's singles, four of which reached number one in the UK. The Sugababes collaborated with members from Orson to produce two new tracks for the album, "Easy" and "Good to Be Gone". Overloaded received positive reviews from critics, who generally praised it as a reflection of the group's success.

    The album peaked at number three on the UK Albums Chart and was certified Platinum by the British Phonographic Industry (BPI). By October 2008, it had sold 600,000 copies in the UK. Overloaded also reached the top twenty on the record charts of Ireland and Portugal, and the top forty on the charts in Austria, Denmark, Germany, the Netherlands, Norway and Switzerland. Its lead single "Easy" was released one week prior to the album's release, and reached the top ten on the singles charts of Slovakia and the United Kingdom. To promote Overloaded, the Sugababes performed at the 100 Club in London and embarked on the album's accompanying tour in the UK and Ireland from March to April 2007.

    Lubricating The Revolution

    by: Strung Out

    The mirror never lies
    and neither does the face
    of a man who doesn't know where his place is
    This man and his shadow
    know exactly where they're going
    straight to hell in all it's glory
    with the rest of it all
    I set myself up
    so that I can set myself apart
    and find another way
    On this planet I call my home
    I'll be an island
    I'll rent a revolution
    and sell my soul to the cause
    as a million footsteps march in my parade
    And I'll buy the moon, a bomb
    and aim it straight at number one
    cause nobody really wants a revolution to come
    I set myself up
    so that I can see what's going on
    and never be like you
    If you have any questions
    feel free to make up your mind
    On this planet here right now
    there's a place for everyone to just be
    On this planet here right now
    there's no place I'd rather be
    I set myself up
    so that I can see what's going on
    and never be like you
    If you have any questions
    feel free to make up your mind
    On this planet I call my home
