You can download a preview of PERMISSION TO BUILD and a video for the
single "All I Want Is You" -- Frank Pino has some happenin' sideburns,
incidentally -- at the band's website: http://www.walthamtheband.com

You can also purchase the band's album there through CCNow -- according to
the website, only the glorious Newbury Comics chain and selected
Strawberries/Record Town/FYE store in New England have the album in stores
yet.
