Beneath Me's new album is out

Chicago, IL natives BENEATH ME will release their new record, Wish I Wouldn’t Care, on April 13th, 2010. “This album is a vivid and true-to-life experience of the world from our point-of-view. What thoughts will be running through your head once you take a listen? Ten individual stories from a track-by-track playback, or one complete overall theme if you listen to the record in its entirety. Your choice,” states Andy Vujasin, drummer for BENEATH ME. Johnny Drugan, bassist and vocalist says, “Fans should expect a thrill ride. It’s musically vindictive and tenacious, and our live performance is as unmerciful as it is entertaining.”

BENEATH ME is the amalgamation of two Chicago outfits that both met their demise in 2007. The first of which featured twin brothers Mikey Vujasin (Rhythm/Lead Guitar and Backing Vocals), Andy Vujasin (Drums) and George Sack (Rhythm/Lead Guitar and Backing Vocals). The second band was helmed by bassist, multi-instrumentalist and composer Johnny Drugan. Members of both groups were mutual partners in crime, so after the demise of their respective bands it was only natural for them to get together to form what would become BENEATH ME.

Bassist and co-producer Johnny Drugan spoke on their latest recording process. “We utilized the pain we had endured by converting it into positive energy, this gave us our end result which was living proof that everything does happen for a reason.” Guitarist and co-producer Mikey Vujasin also commented, “We wanted to keep the record organic and raw. When listening to it from beginning to end, it creates an overall story that takes listeners to another realm.”
