about

Originally released on compact disc on November 30th, 2006, the full version of 'Welcome To New Granada' is now finally available digitally! **This album is also included on the official Blu-ray of the 1979 film "Over The Edge", released by Arrow Video in 2021.

This album is a collection of songs inspired by 1979's sensational cult film of teenage rebellion, Over the Edge. Heralded as the Rebel Without a Cause for the 70's (and featuring a young Matt Dillon in his first role), the movie focuses on a group of disaffected youth in an oppressively boring planned community. The feature was misunderstood and shelved quickly after its initial release (due to fears the film was too violent). Since then, Over the Edge has slowly gained a rabid following of fans who relish in its over-sensationalized depiction of 70's youth culture. The songs on this release attempt to capture the rebellious spirit of Over the Edge and the colorful characters that populate its stark and tumultuous world.

"Drats!!! from Oregon has made a rock operetta based on Over the Edge called Welcome to New Granada. And it rules. Instead of trying to translate the movie scene by scene into songs, they just seize on a bunch of the film's crucial moments and characters, and let them all wind round each other into a reverent, emotionally-cogent tapestry of music." -VICE Magazine

"I got the operetta and it's great. 'Johnny the Mute' put me into an out-of-body experience, in which I was once again working on the script with Tim Hunter at his place in Hollywood till 2 AM, followed by red beans and rice at the all-night South Town Soul Food on Wilcox." -Charlie Haas, co-screenwriter of 1979's legendary teen rebellion cult film OVER THE EDGE
