Weird
You stole the curtains from my eyes
No room for torture no room to hide
Put me down and finish
My soul won't be diminished my friend
If something isnt' violent the melody ain't silent my friend

Cos when I go down, I rise back up again
Cos when I go down, I rise back up again
Cos when I go...

Biography
Spearheaded by John Kunkel (vox/producer) and amplified by Michael ‘Janzie’ Janz (sequencing/synths), Mark Michalski (synths) and Brock Woolsey (guitar), The New Division is an LA based tour de force. Influenced by Joy Division, New Order and Depeche Mode, they have taken the tastiest slices of these bands and infused some new life into them. Not stuck under the weight and spell of the greats that came before them, but perfectly inspired, these guys have done what most bands can’t do. They’ve remained faithful to their influence without being a copycat. Their sound feels comfortably connected to the past but with a momentum that fastens them to the future. The core stays true to electronic dance music while supporting thick branches of 80’s synth, italo disco and brooding chill wave. Kunkel adds tugging lyrics to the tracks, bringing satisfying emotion to the party. 

Kunkel and his mates are constantly writing music. On any given day, they’ll have multiple songs going at once, expanding and editing whenever it feels right. In early 2011, they felt they had 6 songs right and put out the highly acclaimed EP, The Rookie. It wasn’t long after that they felt they had enough material for a full length, and in late 2011, they released Shadows. This album is generating a huge buzz. As more people put their ears to it, Shadows continues to climb up charts all across the US as well as internationally. Several music publications named the LP a top album of 2011 and as the new year unfolds, the masses are catching on. 

The New Division are embracing today’s musical landscape by being multifaceted. Understanding the relevance of collaboration, they continue to drop remixes of their favorite artist’s tracks and in return, encourage others to remix their own music. They have also started a label, Division 87 Records, which scouts both in the States as well as overseas for new talent. 

Several members also have side projects going (Gala, John Glenn). If you're lucky enough to be in the Los Angeles area, you can hear the guys live before they inevitably head across the pond to appease their international fans. 

No plans of slowing down, they are striking while the iron is hot. A new EP is due out in late Spring, more live shows are being announced and a festival in their future looks probable. If they continue at this pace, which seems likely based on the amount of started songs on Kunkel’s computer, it will be a very ear pleasing year. They’ve also decided to take a more collaborative songwriting approach on this new EP, which will only enhance and deepen their already solid sound. In sum, The New Division will make you want to get into your car on a dark, rainy night and take a drive though a glittering downtown. Into your soul they will instill a deep longing for the introspective 80’s, when emotions were pinned to your jacket and one glance from the girl gutted you. And above all, they will encourage you to honor your inner demons and in the same breath, remind you to roll down your window so you can blow them out with one long exhale. 

The New Division - Weird

Opinionated, Honest, Sarcastic & Obnoxious Hardcore Chick from Brooklyn.....
I Am Always Reaching For The Star That Glimmers With Hope.
Party promoter & hostess. Music & Dance that's what it is all about...........

I am a disciple of music and have had a fetish for vinyl at an early age. My earliest memories were those of playing with my cousins records from the age of 5. I remember wishing I was older cause I wanted to go to all the clubs they were going to (The Funhouse stood out the most). I remember buying my first record Miquel Brown - So Many Men So Little Time in 1983 at Ceaser's Bay Bazaar And it was all over from that point on. I spent every penny I had on records.

One Day in the early 80's, thanks to the guiding of The Roller Palace (local skating rink), my real musical education began. I went to The Roller Palace religiously every sat to skate & listen to Lenny Dee & Frankie Bones DJ till they closed there doors for good. I followed these two musical masterminds around and started to buy my records at Groove on Ave U. Unfortunately The Groove Crew abandoned Brooklyn and moved the shop into Manhattan.

One day when I was 14 yrs I walked into the rave scene of the early 90's and The Limelight. When I walked into The Limelight, I knew what my destiny was. I started out as a flyer girl & did the call list for Anthony acid who DJ'd lord Michael's Future Shock Parties. I then went on to help out with the hardcore & techno parties on Thursdays & promoted every other night there. On the rave side of it I promoted parties for Guaranteed Overdose, Infinity & The McMuffin Family, Industrial Strength Records and a lot more. In 2000 along with Tony Diangelis, Siege, Shane Fontane and Michael Francis I went back to work for Peter Gatien & did parties at both Limelight & Tunnel until the clubs closed their doors for good.

After the devastation of the closing of Limelight and Tunnel I went to work on the vinyl side of the music industry I have worked for such companies as Watts Music Distribution (Some of the Best yrs of my life), UDG -Ultimate DJ Gear with Ralphie Dee, Unique Distribution & assistant to the owners of Club Stereo NYC. When the music & club industries calmed down I decided to go Back to school and attain my associates in applied sciences for broadcasting. I became The Music Director Of the college radio station 90.3 WKRB www.WKRB.org and helped to build a format where all music was exposed.

As of right now during the day I am the humbled & honored assistant to Judy Weinstein of DefMix Productions.
