The "new roots" rockers of Iration are busy boys. By the spring of this year alone, they supported 47 shows in 52 days on the Winter Black Out Tour with The Expendables, and in early March released their second full-length studio album, Time Bomb, the anticipated follow-up to their debut, No Time For Rest. Their songs—a neon concoction of surf culture pop/punk and lovey-dovey reggae rhythms—have gotten ukubillions of plays (and top rankings) on iTunes and MySpace, and have been featured on shows from MTV to Fuel TV's Triple Crown of Surfing recap. Iration's return home to Hawaii (a BAMP Project production) comes on the heels of extensive Mainland touring and the August release of their latest single "Summer Night," and just before a main stage appearance at Cypress Hill's Smokeout music festival in California. If you've found yourself "falling" for Iration, haul yourself to the Hard Rock this Saturday. Who knows? You might meet someone at a concert, and they might be wearing Converse. Oh, I guess I ought to mention that joining Iration is a little band called The Throwdowns (pictured). Haven't heard much about them, but like any local band with humble Maui beginnings, they dream of national distribution and—oh, wait...
