Album: The End Of The World
This small local bar band in Japan, called Tiernan, was picked up on Tokyo's popular station, InterFM's morning show. The lead singer, Laurier Tiernan is from Canada, and along with ex-US Navy bassist and Japanese drummer they have been slowly gaining popularity in Japan. Something about this song is really catchy. Tiernan sings "Arnold Swarchenegger will be President of the United States...." and the consequence of that. Their songs can be purchased on their former label's website.The quality is not that great, but you can see them perform this song at What the Dicken's (one of my favorite live houses in Japan): Live performance of Tiernan's "End of the World"

I had this song stuck in my head for a while! I appreciate that they care a lil about politics, even though they tend to exaggerate somewhat

Whoa, thanks for dropping by, Laurier Tiernan. I really like what your band is doing. I read that you recently had an open heart surgery? Glad to see that you are doing well. Can't wait to get my hand on the full album!
gosh, if I had known that the band was reading what I was writing, I would have sucked up a little more ^^
but I do appreciate it!
JW and Daniel,
A friend tipped me off to this link she found and I thought I'd say "boo". JW, if you're the author of this blog, please hit me with a mail at tiernanband@gmail.com
I'm glad you're looking forward to the full album. I am too. ;) On March 6th I had to have emergency heart surgery for a condition I was born with, but my cardiologist says I'm healing well, that I ought to be able to concerts with tiernan again as of late May (despite some pain) and that I'll be stronger than ever as of late June.
Work on the video for "The End of the World" will resume as of that time, and at the same time tiernan will resume preproduction work on the first album that we want to put out by the end of this year.
Thank you both for your interest. :)
Cha,
L.t.
