New Joshua album "Choices"


In 1999 I drove my car from Dover Plains, NY to Danbury, CT to Volt records. I remember it raining pretty hard and I believe my close friend B. "Cigway" was with me. We used to go to Danbury all the time to buy cds and records at both Volt Records and the great Trash American Style. Cigway and I would browse what the store had for awhile and then evaluate the selection together. Once we had our top two choices of albums we wanted to go home with, we would each buy one, this way we could make each other a tape of the selection that the other did not get. I got the album End Serenading by Mineral and Cigway chose A Whole New Theory by Joshua. I hadn't heard the record yet, but I remember Cigway raving about "...how great...!" this dude's voice is. We bumped it on the way home. Cigway was right about the dude's voice. Joshua quickly became one of my favorite bands and I would go see them play live every chance I got. Why is this story relevant you may be wondering? Because Orange County, New York's Joshua is back and they rock harder than ever. Their new record is called CHOICES and you can sample it at -joshuatheband. Check out A Whole New Theory so you can act like you knew... A Whole New Theory by Joshua (the band)
