From the shores of Hawaii comes the debut release from one of the most relevant bands of our time. (Order of the) White Rose delivers the one-two punch of aggressive, powerful music and impassioned, informed lyrics generating a sound that will dwell in your head and set your body in motion. On July 7, 2006 they will be releasing their new album appropriately titled War Machine with cover art by punk scene political graphic artist and friend Winston Smith who created the cover for the Dead Kennedy's In God We Trust, Inc. album. This album will hit you like a cannon shot, assault your ears with a barrage of melodies, and leave you echoing the mantra "No Flags, No Masters" for quite some time... The torches of revolution have indeed been re-lit.
The Robertson brothers Nate (drums) and Noah (bass/lead vocals)emerged from the ashes of the popular Maui band "Absence of Void" to join with their musically multifarious friend Steve Hart (guitar) of the bands "Plainfield" and "Gitchee Gumee" to form (Order of the) White Rose, a band that truly wears its collective heart on its sleeve. They later added guitarist Ian from the local band "Khrinj" to round out their live sound. Together, these four guys have been gaining musical ground and attracting an ever increasing following that is spreading not only on their home turf, but throughout the mainland as well.
The unique band moniker honors the German Resistance group White Rose, who waged a leaflet campaign opposing the Nazi regime. This reference defines the musician's belief system and serves as a reflection of their humanity and exemplary character. It speaks volumes about the integrity and sincerity put forth from the hearts and minds of talented, gifted musicians that have a lot to say.
With subject matter ranging from Imperialism (both political and cultural) to social awareness to confronting personal demons and everything in between, they never get too wrapped up in the message to just plain rock out. And make no mistake about it, the band member's diverse musical influences mesh together to form a sonic masterpiece ready to overtake the masses. Everything from hardcore to metal to punk to first-generation ska to world music and unique cultural styles like Persian guitar and South Pacific drumming have lead these musicians to their current sound.
From the opening salvos of "White Rose" to the propulsive "Seeds of Destruction" which ends this disc there are plenty of aural gems to keep even the most capricious listener on board. "In Control", a song that would sit comfortably on both radio and personal play lists, the raucous fan favorite "No Flags, No Masters", the emphatic "Guilty", even the unmistakable "Clean" are all valid reasons to add this disc to your library and enlist in the army of this War Machine.

We have recently released a new 7 inch. All proceeds will go to the food banks of Oahu and Maui.
