From Oh-78violet: After a 5 and a half year hiatus from their music, Aly and AJ have finally begun preparations to release their debut album as 78violet, starting by shooting the music video for the album’s lead single “Hothouse”. The girls began shooting for the video earlier today in Santa Barbara, CA. The stylist, hair stylist, and makeup artist for the shoot have been posting pictures all day of the girls looking stunning in their Rad and Redefined dresses, posing with the American flag, and walking through a deserted dirt road.

That's a dumb name. Hothouse or 78violet? Either way I agree.

I miss these girls and wish they would've kept up with releasing music, but it is nice to see that they seem to be in the process of getting some new stuff out there finally. I can't wait to hear it. I just wish they hadn't changed their name, because I've never been a fan of '78violet' since they first revealed the name change.

I remember waiting for the 2007 VMAs to begin and the last music video played before Britney's performance was 'Potential Break-up Song'. I'm looking forward to this.

I want Aly & AJ back. I hope the music is good, because I just can't with their name or that title.
The name change is idiotic, no one's going to know who the hell they are, and at this point they should be clinging to whatever relevance they can.

I'm surprised they still kept the band name, lol. Although they've had it for how many years and no music until now...? Pretty excited for it.

And I also loved Aly in Phil Of The Future. Hope Hothouse is good and makes up for the crappy title.

Actually, the name change may help them out. Aly & AJ is linked with Disney and always will be. 78violet kind of gives them a chance to break away from that.
(Though, I don't get the name at all and I still have yet to warm up to it.)
Remember "The Next Worst Thing"? It was supposedly their first lead single as 78violet way back when. It was like really Paramore-ish. The photos posted above, though, look sort of country or folksy.

I'm okay with the name, there are far worse band names out there lol.
Anyways this is the best news for me in a long time because I grew up listening to them, they are a part of my childhood. I was always worried they would stop completely.
Are they signed to a new record label?

I loved this back in the day. Definitely one of the better songs to come from a Disney-based artist, right up there with 'So Yesterday' and 'See You Again'.

OMG! It sounds like it's going to be so good! And tit oddly sounds like it fits in with the current retro trend. Did I detect some 70s inspired disco rock in the second video? Oh, and the troll video was giving me 3OH!3 & Ke$ha "My First Kiss" vibes.

Aly and AJ Michalka, also known as 78Violet, are finally back and ready to release new music. On July 8, the pop/rock sibling duo will release their very first single under their new (but kind of old) name titled “Hothouse.” The single will lead their as-yet-untitled new album, coming soon. A video for the single will premiere on the same day.To support their return, the sisters have lined up two shows on each coast. On June 26, Aly and AJ will play to fans at Hollywood’s famous Roxy Theatre and on July 9, they’ll take on New York’s Gramercy Theatre. “We couldn’t be more ready or excited to introduce our amazing fans to the new and evolved sound behind 78Violet,” Aly and AJ Michalka said in a statement. “These two upcoming shows will allow us to share a small taste of the alternative pop vibe that you’ll hear on the album in an organic and up close and personal setting.” Aly and AJ changed their stage name to 78Violet in 2009, telling fans they changed their name from the simple “Aly & AJ” “because we just felt a natural progression in our music.” The girls made plans to release a self-titled album later that year but those plans were scrapped. In 2011, they teased fans with footage of themselves working on a new song titled “Suspended.” neonlimelight.com/2013/06/05/aly-and-aj-set-premiere-date-for-new-single-hothouse/?utm_source=twitterfeed&utm_medium=twitter&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+NeonLimelight+%28%2F%2FNeon+Limelight%2F%2F%29And a Billboard article..

I forgot how much I like "Rush", "Chemicals React" and "Potential Breakup Song." Since all the Disney girls are making it big right now, hopefully they release some good music and join that train before it leaves.
