Synopsis

Product Description
With Bend To Break, Fred Mascherino--known for his work as lead guitarist and co-vocalist/songwriter for Taking Back Sunday--has turned out one of the most exhilarating and gutsy solo projects in years. Operating under the guise of THE COLOR FRED, the first recording under his nom de rock was artfully executed with the help of legendary producer Lou Giordano (Sugar, Paul Westerberg, Sunny Day Real Estate).

While THE COLOR FRED had been in Mascherino's plans since before he joined Taking Back Sunday, his solo project was put on the backburner with that band s meteoric rise. In the wake of two gold records while in the band--2004's Where You Want To Be (Victory) and 2006's Louder Now (Warner Bros.)--and their subsequent touring commitments, it wasn t until the Spring of 2007 that Bend To Break truly took shape.

Bend To Break is made of 100% recycled materials and has a carbon footprint of zero.

CD Reviews

Not TBS
Anthony J. Mascherino Jr. | Downingtown | 11/02/2007
(5 out of 5 stars)

"What a great LP. So different from the sound of TBS. Fred is playing the kind of music he wants to play, and is doing a great job providing us with a great sound for sore ears. Not a bad song on the CD. It rocks from the beginning including a shot out to his home town of Coatesville with Get Out. Great lead in on If I Surrender, perfect for a ringtone. Still rocking with Hate To See You Go, then slowing down for It Isn't Me, picking up again for Complaintor, The Tragedy and I Didn't See. Minnesota rocks in between two more great ballads Empty House and I'll Never Know. Don't Pretend rounds out the CD on a rock note. Clint Stelfox makes an appearance on It Isn't Me playing the piano brilliantly. Clint played with Fred in Breaking Pangaea. This album could be the album that everyone talks about from Foo Fighter and Linkin Park fans to John Mayer and Plain White T fans.
