LYPSWITCH Releases NEW Single & Video "American Song"


Indianapolis, Indiana - (Friday, July 4, 2025) - Eonian Records is pleased to present a new single and video from LYPSWITCH top selling album World of Sin entitled ‘American Song.’

Thirty-five plus years after LYPSWITCH made the move to Hollywood, Eonian Records proudly partnered with the band to unveil World of Sin - a true masterpiece and must-have collectible for any rock enthusiast. This definitive release features 17 explosive tracks, including three brand-new recordings and impeccably remastered classics brought to life by the legendary Anthony Focx. The sound is sharper, bigger, and more electrifying than ever. With stunning new artwork and top-tier packaging, World of Sin isn’t just an album - it’s a celebration of a decades-long journey, delivered with the passion, grit and sleaze, that made LYPSWITCH unforgettable. 

 
 

Danny Whaley, lead vocals: “I can’t believe this song was written 34 years ago and it is more true today than ever!”

Mick O’Brien, guitarist, “The song is about what was happening in the U.S. during the early ’90s, just as the Gulf War was beginning. In many ways, it felt like a warning of the unrest to come, especially with the L.A. Riots going down in April of '92. That truly changed the Sunset Strip forever.”

Kevin Agosta, drummer, “When David Love wrote lyrics, he always drew from what we were experiencing in our everyday lives, the raw, and sometimes dark reality around us. Even though “The American Song” is now 34 years old, it still resonates today, especially given the ongoing tension and division in our country. At its core, I believe the song is a call for empathy and hope and a reminder that, despite everything, we’re all in this together in this great nation. The video was created using bootleg footage from a show we played with the band Children at XPOSEUR 54 in Hollywood, in  February of 1991."

Stephen Craig, Eonian Records, “I’ve been friends with the guys in LYPSWITCH since we featured them in our Rock ‘N’ Roll Rebels & The Sunset Strip box set in 2015. When the time came, it was only natural to welcome them into the Eonian family. Their self-described ‘underground punk-funk street rock’ fit perfectly into the gritty, evolving L.A. scene when they arrived in 1988.”

Ryan Northrop of Eönian Records, “This has long been one of my favorite titles in our catalog, and we couldn’t be more excited to unveil the new single and video. LYPSWITCH is the real deal - raw, energetic, and unforgettable. We consider their music a vital part of L.A. music scene.”

LYPSWITCH is: Danny Whaley on Vocals, Mick O’Brien on Guitars, David Love on Bass, Kevin Agosta on Drums

About LYPSWITCH - Originally from Orlando, Florida moved to Hollywood in April of 1988 - The band kicked and clawed their way around the Strip scene, packing the usual hotspots such as The Whisky (a favorite of theirs), Gazzarri’s, The Roxy, and The Troubadour, while frequently playing with rival bands such as TAZ, Scratch, Liquor Sweet, Blackboard Jungle, Funhouse, as well as Bang Tango and Love/Hate, who, of course, went onto significant label success. Along with that healthy competition, LYPSWITCH also had plenty of press from L.A. rags like BAM, Rock City News, and Screamer, as well as even getting coveted airplay on the legendary KNAC Pure Rock 105.5FM with their first single “Rattlesnake Skin” in late 1989 and 1990. Along the way, they also took part in the L.A. band traditions of posting flyers, making phone calls to people on their mailing list, and even sending newsletters to people who listed themselves in the pen pal section of Metal Edge Magazine. It was an idea that helped the band spread their name all over the country and even internationally!
