March 31, 2014

If you haven’t heard it yet, you are going to love Sebastian Bach’s new song “Temptation“. Sebastian wrote the song with the amazingly talented John 5 and on bass is the bad ass Duff McKagan.

It was only a couple weeks ago that we were out at the DNA Lounge covering the Eyes Set to Kill show. The night was filled with some great music. You can check out our articles on Eyes Set To Kill and Cilver. We were excited to be treated to a San Francisco band and they really delivered Metalcore/Post Hardcore at it’s finest.

Today our Bottle Rock Napa Featured Band is Irontom. These five guys from Los Angeles are bringing to life a fresh new sound in rock and roll. Irontom is full of energy and have an alternative rock sound that will have you enjoying their catchy melodies and energetic sound. You can feel the influences in their music that ranges from classic rock, punk, alternative and everything in between. They remind me of a sibling of Artic Monkeys or Cage The Elephant.

March 29, 2014

We were able to catch Cilver as they were out on tour with the Revolver Hottest Chicks in Hard Rock Tour along with Lacuna Coil, Eyes Set to Kill and Sick Puppies. We were excited when we found out they were playing an off night with Eyes Set to Kill at the DNA Lounge in San Francisco. First off, the DNA Lounge is a legendary nightclub where I spent most of the 90’s from what I can remember! Cilver performed in the upstairs stage and it was awesome. Being able to see Cilver up close and personal in that intimate setting was exactly what I needed. The energy from them was bouncing off the walls and reverberating through the crowd. They truly captivated the crowd and with their fierce intensity left us all wanting more! Cilver is an American Rock band from New York and they have been rapidly rising on the charts and gaining a lot of attention with their amazing hit, In My Head which features Bumblefoot (Guns n Roses).
