Los Angeles, CA (Billboard Publicity Wire) June 8, 2007 -- Los Angeles-based music content company / indie label, Chaos Theory Music is proud to announce the much-anticipated self-titled debut EP by the up- and-coming Asian American rock band Seriously. With producers Woody Pak and Gloria Lee, Seriously brings to you five songs that show off their talent for melancholy yet fresh songwriting, blending hints of K-pop (aka Korean popular music) and British pop within the context of an American rock sound and sensibility. Four young Asian American men of Korean and Vietnamese descent who grew up in Orange County California, the members of this adverbially- named band, Seriously are Chris Pham (Vocals/ Acoustic Guitar), Joshua Baek (Bass), Alex Yi (Electric Guitar) and Philip Park (Drums).

Seriously's debut EP is a refreshing introduction to an emerging Asian American music scene that takes a nod from the growing interest in Asian popular culture around the globe akin to international stars Rain and Boa. The subject matter of Seriously's songs seem typical enough -- about lost love and relationships, yet their CD is peppered with moments of wisdom and raw honesty which reveal their youthful sense of idealism and hope. Seriously's signature melancholy-hued optimism is effortlessly blended in a sonic mix of K-pop's over-the-top drama, the catchy hooks of '90s Britpop bands, and the edginess of American rock.

Seriously is blazing a path for other Asian American rock star hopefuls as they win over new fans at every show. Hordes of teenage girls ask for photos and autographs from the band members, charmed and captivated by these musicians who, in many ways, look like American counterparts to their favorite K-pop stars from Asia.

Seriously's EP will be released on June 5, 2007 and will be immediately available on the Chaos Theory Music Online Store at www.chaostheorymusic.net. The EP will also be available shortly thereafter at various online music stores such as iTunes, Emusic, Rhapsody and Napster, to name a few.

To find out more about the band members and get a glimpse into the life of an emerging rock band, watch the ten episodes of their reality series capturing the drama lived in the months and weeks before the release of their world premier EP. The series can be viewed at www.chaostheorymusic.net and on YouTube, www.youtube.com/chaostheorymusic.
