The Struggle EP Out October 2nd
ATTLEBORO, MA // September 22nd, 2015 – Massachusetts rockers ZERO HOLDS released their second single “Carry You” yesterday through an exclusive premiere with Mind Equals Blown! Fast, passionate and emotionally heavy, the track offers a gritty, grunge inspired blend of post-rock, melded as a perfectly balanced brew. “Carry You” is the second single off their upcoming work, The Struggle EP out on October 2nd. Formerly known as Roman Numeral Three, the group reformed and sought a new direction.The Struggle EP provides a debut for ZERO HOLDS’s reborn identity, style and sound.
The band’s first single “Plunge” premiered via New Noise Magazine earlier this month. Both singles encompass the EP’s theme of defining and fighting the eternal human struggle and proverbial good fight, alongside finding the fire to fight on. As lead singer Joe Touchette explained, “[it’s] how we aim for the best and still sometimes lose, and who the people are that lift us up when we fall.”
The Struggle EP features five tracks, recorded with Jay Deluca of The Bears Den in Attleboro, MA. The EP will be released October 2, 2015 on all major digital retailers and celebrated that night at The Met in Providence, RI alongside War Games, Brian Marquis (of Therefore I Am) and The Varsity Club. Details and tickets for the show can be foundhere. The Struggle EP is available for pre-order through Bandcamp now.

Biography: ZERO HOLDS is a rock and roll band with grit. They formed amid the ashes of Massachusetts based band THE ROMAN NUMERAL THREE, a faux-acoustic/post-rock effort including Joe Touchette, Mike Rague, and John Thomas. By a certain stroke of chance, Tyler Leadbetter soon emerged gallantly from the lost village of Hanson Ma. to join the remaining three in making a new and slightly edgier style of music. Touchette seasons his lyrics with evident gloom and a hint of curiosity, Rague simmers them over ambient guitars like stove burner flames growing ever larger until the kitchen burns away from the house. Gifted throughout with a heart beat who’s will is nearly immortal, Leadbetter and Thomas know better than to overthink this disaster. The rhythm swells and the windy inferno of noise is tamed when four voices turn to one and lead the entire neighborhood in climactic chanting hymns that suppress the smoke and heat, breaking ground for an end with proper relief.
