REDEFINE - "The Power of Persuasion" (IPZ-007)
Constantly evolving since their 2006 inaugural release, Redefine are known for a high energy, in-your-face rock show that leaves few left standing.
Honest music accented with phenomenal musicianship, the Redefine sound was further enhanced in 2009 with the addition of vocalist Scott Headstream (of Ice Planet Records alum Halto Bravo.)

It's a unique blend of rock, metal, vocal atmospherics, thinking-man's lyrics, and technicality.
Six songs, six unique experiences ready to soak into your skull. You will be persuaded by the power of Redefine!

HENRY HOLT - "Lines and Letdowns" (IPZ-005)
Release #5 comes from the shared experience of two brothers known as Mudd. John and J.J. Mudd, collectively known as the quirky indie/experimental project Henry Holt.
Lines and Letdowns is the latest, and by far the greatest, in a line of EPs the duo has released over the past few years. It features a tried-and-true fan favorite, the quirky love tune "Whopper", as well as the ultra-mellow variation "Enjoy The Movie", instrumental opener (and namesake) "Lines and Letdowns", "Cleo", and "A Book About Us" (another fan favorite in five-star form here.)
A final bonus comes in the form of a special appearance by Dallas pop-punk underground mainstays 41 Gorgeous Blocks, who provide their own stylistic interpretation of "Whopper", and pull it off magnificently. Fans of either band will love every second of it.
