Shout Out Out Out Out has remixed the Icelandic pop weirdness of “Find What You Get” from the Bang Gang album “Something Wrong”. A lot of blogs speak hightly of this remix at this time. Formed in May 2004, the six members of Shout Out Out Out Out are comfortable straddling the fence between the energy of being in a rock band, and the exciting bump of filling a dancefloor with slamming sequenced beat. Then, the remix of “Find What You Get” combines great vocals and strings sets against a backdrop of heavy fuzzy synthesizers and dropping beats. The result is amazing. Remix is done now and ready to hit dance floor all over the North America !

Something Wrong will be released in the United States on the 3rd of April.
Ryko is taking care of the distribution in more 15000 retail outlets all over the US.

RYKO’s parent company is Warner Music Group and the album will be distributed through there network.
