    ONESIDEZERO HEADLINES SAVE DARFUR BENEFIT CONCERT

    Metal Underground, MD
    May 16 2007

    ONESIDEZERO will headline the "Amplify Your Voice Against Genocide"
    benefit concert June 9th, 2007 at the El Rey Theater in Los Angeles
    with support from Red Snow, Slow Motion Reign and Vokee featuring
    former members of The Apex Theory. All proceeds from the show will
    go to the Save Darfur Coalition (www.savedarfur.org).

    "Just like our Armenian Genocide, the Holocaust, the Native Americans
    discovered and conquered, Rwanda, and now a current genocide in Darfur,
    Sudan. We gather together to amplify our voices against genocide,"
    says Onesidezero guitarist Levon Sultanian. "I am the offspring of
    martyrs of a genocide perpetrated 92 years ago. I bear testimony to the
    atrocities imposed upon my people. I can empathize with others in the
    same position. That is why I participate in the Darfur demonstrations,
    and I do so through my music."

    ONESIDEZERO is gearing up for the release of their Ulrich Wild
    (Static-X, Stabbing Westward, Taproot) produced sophomore album,
    which is slated for June 5th, 2007 release by Corporate Punishment.

    "The last 5 to 6 years have been some of the most insane and most
    amazing times of my life. Onesidezero as a band have grown so much
    together in this time. We went through the ups and downs of life and
    after some new demos under our belts started the rebuilding process
    of Onesidezero," says Sultanian. "It was really exciting to bring in
    all these news songs into th e recording studio after working on them
    at home and at rehearsal for over a year. Hope everyone digs them as
    much as we do!"

    The band released their Maverick Records debut Is This Room Getting
    Smaller in 2001, which produced Active Rock singles "Instead Laugh"
    and "New World Order". Subsequent US tours with Incubus, 311, Soulfly,
    Soil and Static-X made them an instant fan favorite.

    The band is currently previewing two new tracks on the group's MySpace
    account for fans to preview material from their forthcoming new album.
