Miss May I deliver a fierce kick ass set at Rockstar Mayhem Fest

July 10, 2014

Every time I see Miss May I, I get more and more impressed with their high energy powerful sets. This past weekend as we covered the Rockstar Energy Drink Mayhem Festival in Mountain View at the Shoreline Amphitheater. We were at the Coldcock American Herbal Whiskey Stage promptly at 3:55 so we wouldn’t miss a second of Miss May I‘s set. Sure enough, they came out bustling with energy and had complete control over the crowd, infusing them with adrenaline. Everyone seem to be off their feet jumping, headbanging or with their fists in the air. It was an intense set and they played their fresh new take of old school metal that has longtime metal fans and new ones in acceptance. They have a very dedicated fan base which seems to span generations. Their new music has such a true old school metal sound but yet they have successfully infused their own new style and created music that everyone loves! Check out the photos by our Rockin Ryan of their set: Earlier this year, [Read More]

Longreef release new single/video for Battle Plan and help raise awareness of bullying

July 10, 2014

One of the hardest stories I had to write was back in October 2012 about a young teen, Amanda Todd who gave up her battle against bullying by committing suicide. It was devastating and quite an eye opener for myself and many others to hear how prevalent and widespread bullying is for today’s youth. I applaud all the organizations that worked to get the word out and raise awareness for the cause. Today I want to focus on how rockers Longreef are helping out with a great message of hope through their music. Longreef have recently released a new single along with a video for their song, Battle Plan. The new single “Battle Plan” is released in conjunction with the www.friendmovement.com to help raise awareness of the issue of bullying. First off, it is a great song in itself that is inspirational and uplifting and the vocals are truly captivating. Check out the video and also make sure to download the song here: Who is Longreef? Four Australians who came to the US and quickly began touring and [Read More]

Check out the video for Black Blizzard by Die So Fluid for new gothic rock

July 10, 2014

Los Angeles/London based gothic rock band, Die So Fluid are set to release a new album in the US later this year. To get you revved up for it, check out the music video for their song, Black Blizzard which will be on the forthcoming album. The video was directed by David Kenny and has a great dark cinematic style that grabs you. Check out the video here: Black Blizzard was inspired by the Dust Bowl tragedy of the 1930s. It’s referred to as a natural disaster but it was caused by man. Nature is wild and untamable, and my character in the video is the storm personified-bringing wrath after she has been abused and disrespected. – Grog (Die So Fluid) The song highlights the powerful vocals of Grog and is rich in tones and excellent use of the exotic and Middle Eastern sounds. I love it’s dramatic effect and I look forward to the new album. Make sure to visit their social media sites so you can stay up to date on their latest news. ~ [Read More]

Last weekend we covered the Rockstar Mayhem Festival as it made it’s stop in the Bay Area at the Shoreline Amphitheater. It was a long wild day filled with awesome bands and one band that is grabbing everyone’s attention is the Texas Hippie Coalition. We featured them last month along with a band interview that you can check it out here. They performed to a packed crowd and it was awesome to see the great reception that this Red Dirt Metal received from everyone. They tore up the stage as they brought an ass whoopin to the crowd. They raised the heat as everyone was embracing their heavy metal classic rock sound. It was intense and I couldn’t wait to catch them again.
