Whole Damn Nation Available Now!
13 Tracks featuring "Breathe Again" & "No Way To Die"
If it is true that there is nothing to fear but fear itself, than Fear Zero has taken its name wisely.
"Fear Zero doesn't mean fear" insists leader Ed Sadler; "It is sort of an anti-fear. Do not be afraid of taking chances."
Their new album, Whole Damn Nation, is an example of chance taking. It incorporates a wide variety of styles from hard rock to simple pop to reggae.
“We were able to work with guys like Mike Fraser (ACDC, Aerosmith, Hinder) and Darren Grahn (Metallica, Crossfade, Third Eye Blind) and let me tell you, when you get to record in a famous and great sounding room such as Hippowest (formerly Mushroom), it just inspires you to play and write in the best way possible.”

Shooting rock videos
Hello again everyone!
Recently Fear Zero shot a couple of rock videos for release with our CD in the (hopefully) near future. I just wanted to talk about the experience, maybe destroy a few myths and let you know what it is really like.
We have shot 4 videos now bearing the Fear Zero name. If you are a fan you have only seen one of those so far and there is a reason. Shooting a video is a bit of an art. On top of trying to capture the essence of the song in the form of a storyline, you have to also capture the image that the band is trying to project. If you are doing the videos independently like we do, that can be a real challenge considering the fact that most videos you see on VH1/Muchmusic cost tens of thousands of dollars.
T-shirt salesman – the new musician
Hi everyone, back for another round of blogging. I have been doing a lot of thinking about how the music business has been affected by the internet, downloading and now of course the economy.
One friend recently said to me that a CD is like a business card. I agree but damn those are expensive business cards!

11 Valuable Lessons I’ve Learned In The Music Industry
#1. Don’t play shows until you are ready and well rehearsed.
Too many times bands want to play out live so badly that they rush it and end up making a bad first impression. This is not a good idea as club bookers will remember how horrible the band was and you may never get another shot to perform there again.
#2. Don’t bother with looking for a manager, they will come looking for you.
Some beginner bands I have performed with had managers that were basically friends that tried to get the band shows and whatnot. You don’t really need a manager until there is something to manage meaning you are pulling in hundreds of fans in several markets and cannot keep up with the demand.
