[edit] Name Change
The Radionics stated in an interview with their now label, Dog Hill Records, that they had many reasons for their name change. One being that some people thought Rebecca Nurse was a solo act, or that Tracy's name was Rebecca Nurse. Another reasoning is that the band has gone through many changes in lineup, and in creativity. In the final minutes of the interview, The Radionics said that they are currently (Jan. 12th, 2006) working on their third album with no set release date. [2]
On December 1st, 2007, The Radionics announced in a MySpace blog that their new album is finished. They expect a release to be some time around December 8th.
