Catch the explosive rockers, Not In The Face this summer on their West Coast Tour

June 17, 2014

This summer if you are lucky to be on the West Coast you will have the chance to catch a great explosive rock band, Not In The Face who will be out on their summer tour. Not In The Face includes Jonathan Terrell on Guitars & Vocals, Wes Cargal on Drums, Michael Anthony Gibson on Lead Guitar and Ross Dubois on Bass & Vocals. Together these four have an energetic rock and roll style that is infectious and is very new. What started as a simple joke of them performing hyperactive covers of classic R&B, Doo-Wop and RocknRoll soon turned into many praising them for their creative new sound. They definitely bring a fresh new sound to the music scene with hints of nostalgia, a true winning combination. I really love it when a band follows their own path and creates something that is completely unexpected and unique. Then to be brave enough to continue down that path and play the music that they truly love to perform. These days with people telling you to fit into certain music [Read More]

June 17, 2014

  World acclaimed electronic music producer and musician deadmau5 has just released his double album titled while(1<2) on mau5trap/Astralwerks Records. It consists of 25 tracks and is available digitally. Stay tuned for physical and streaming release on June 24th.  What can fans expect with while(1<2)?  “It’s a good mix of sh*t I want to do versus sh*t people want to hear or what they would expect. It’s a good balance. It’s not like, ‘Oh, it’s such a departure. He’s doing smooth jazz,’” says deadmau5.  “It was when I was working on some live stuff, setlists for shows and stuff like that, and it just must have been a couple of tracks that sounded pretty good stitched together end to start and I thought, “Well, if I ever do an album or compile this into some kind of album this has got to be that part of the order for that.” And I just kind of took everything and played musical Tetris with it.”   Leading up to while(1<2)—a double-album collection of 25 tracks that together he truly feels is his first proper artist release–deadmau5 made [Read More]

Check out Nine Volt Heart for some new aggressive pop punk to start your day off right!

June 17, 2014

I have a great band to tell you about for some energetic aggressive pop punk that will get you pumped up and ready to start your day off right. I am talking about Nine Volt Heart from the UK. Nine Volt Heart is Mikey Lord on vocals/guitar, Paul Norfolk on guitar, Ed Truby on bass and Alex Sheldon on drums. These four bring together a fresh new take on punk infused with some melodic pop rock styles.  The perfect combo to get you moving. Nine Volt Heart currently has their new album, The Miracle Kids out now. You can pick up the 12 track album on their bandcamp page here. You will love it since it features a variety of tracks from the amped up pop punk anthem of the title track, The Miracle Kids to the emotionally driven song of breathe? to the kick ass track of Teenage Fantasy and everything in between. They really remind me of another young pop punk band that I fell in love with many,many years ago; Material Issue. Check out a cool video [Read More]
