Madina Lake are a four-piece music group from Chicago, Illinois. Their debut album From Them, Through Us, To You is out now on Roadrunner Records.
Madina Lake formed in 2005, and is comprised of twin brothers in vocalist Nathan and bassist Matthew Leone, guitarist Mateo Camargo and drummer Daniel Torelli.
The band itself sets its music in a town created in the mind of the bass player, Matthew Leone. It is set high in the American mountains, and, isolated from human contact, has remained in a 1950s themed era. The music provides an outlet for the band's views on politics, culture, and the media's obsession with celebrity status. The theme behind the band's music is in relation to the mystery of Adalia.
The band signed with Roadrunner Records in August of 2005. The band independently released an EP titled The Disappearance of Adalia on August 22, 2006, after their album, which was initially set for an August 2006 release, was delayed.
The band's debut album From Them, Through Us, To You is out now. It album was produced, engineered and mixed by Mark Trombino.
Madina Lake currently has its music video for "One Last Kiss" playlisted on the UK Rock Channel Scuzz and the music video for "House of Cards" playlisted on UK Rock Channel Kerrang TV and US network MTV.
