'Our new album has been in the works for 2 years, I'm very proud of this collection. I feel that the songs are powerful, edgy and so filled with soul.  I'm loving the progression that has happened, and to date this is definitely my proudest' states Laurie-Anne.

Our debut is available on iTunes but no solid release date as of yet. We want to make sure we have all of the right people on board before we do a release.

We selected 'Dead Weight' as the single, it takes you on a trip with a positive anthemic message that pertains to everyone. This song is a wakeup call for people to realize that they have the power to shed negativity from their lives. We wanted the listener to be left with an uplifting feeling of strength and independence, in this day and time it may reign truer then ever before.

Critics

"Toronto hard rockers Famous Underground are the real deal. With flash, balls, big guitar and a real arena rock sound, Famous Underground are poised to take their self titled debut album and an upcoming concept video to the world in 2012."
~ RockStar Weekly
"Being the first to embrace an original band with a unique vision takes balls, because doing so is an exercise in uncertainty and fear of "What will everyone else think?" Famous Underground is that road test, you're the deer in their headlights, and the impact is a skull-rattling reminder that a stand-alone identity in the here and now overshadows past glories and current blood-sucking music industry trends."
~ Carl Begai / BW&BK
"My fav's were "Mommy is a Junkie," "Dead Weight," and "On Broken Wings" seems like honest reflection. I've always liked when Nicky gets the Alice Cooper snarly thing going"
~ Gonzo Mark (106.9 The Bear - Ottawa)
"Famous Underground's debut is packed with power-driven vocals, political angst, piercing fluidity & self-certification."
~ B. Patoine (Rock U Review - Saskatchewan)

"Every now and again, a band comes along that grabs you by the balls and demands that you listen; perhaps you may even be able to still breathe after a sonic assault from Famous Underground." ~ Angry Todd Harley (94 Rock WOTT)
