Concert Review by Alex Bock: Stick To Your Guns / Stray From The Path / Counterparts / Wolf Down

February 16, 2016

Stick To Your Guns / Stray From The Path / Counterparts / Wolf Down Backstage Werk, Feb. 7th, 2016 What happens when you go to a rock show with four hardcore bands on the bill? Yeah right, it gets really sweaty, esp. for the audience and the security personal. The crowd though needed a while to get into the right mood, but no later than when Stray From The Path entered the stage it was crowd surfing on end. All four bands played solid sets and were fun to watch. Couldn’t really say, why everyone was so tame throughout Wolf Down and Counterparts’ set. Last time I saw Counterparts play with Bless The Fall, Every Time I Die and Architects. They had the crowd going there from the get go. Different audience, different reactions it seems. Wolf Down: Counterparts: Especially SFTP and STYG built a close connection to the audience when talking to them, reassuring the people to fight for their dreams, but also that parents’ concerns aren’t all that wrong with certain decisions [Read More]

Last Bullet ready to grab your attention with new video for SIN

February 16, 2016

Are you ready to get hooked on a bad ass new band? The time is now for Last Bullet to grab your attention with their newly released music video for their song SIN. The video was filmed in the 24th floor attick of Toronto’s historical landmark, the Fairmont Royal York Hotel. It was envisioned, edited and co-directed by frontman Bryan Fontez. The celebrity destination hotel, where Jim Morrison scratched his name in the same attic wall where the video was filmed, required the band carry all of their equipment up 700+ flights of stairs. Check out the video here: Frontman Bryan Fontez comments about the song, “In many ways the world has become a dark, cold and detached place to live. Prejudice, ignorance, materialism and a lack of empathy are beginning to divide us and cast a dark cloud over everything. “SIN” was written from a cynical but very realistic point of view, about all that is wrong with modern society. The metaphor and lyrical imagery depict not only a set of misguided values and priorities, but [Read More]

Concert Review: Escape The Fate, New Years Day, Fearless Vampire Killers, Like A Storm

February 12, 2016

Concert Review, Munich, Strom, Feb. 4th, 2016 by Alex Bock, https://twitter.com/abphotomjp Last Thursday we had ‘Weiberfasching’ in Munich. It’s part of the final days of the carnival season, where women are officially on the hunt for men’s ties, to cut them off the necks of their owners. No problem for the show that night, because fortunalety I was attending a Rock show, not an office party nor a carnival ball. When I saw the concert announcement a while ago and the support bands that where added over time, I thought, wow, what an event. Four awesome band in one night. The club they played, oftentimes starts shows at 9.30 pm, which is pretty late, considering they have to be over by midnight for youth protection reasons. Fortunately, the promoter also thought that this might end up in a race against time, so they changed doors and show-start time to 8.30 pm, which kinda worked out fine. Like A Storm hit the stage at around 8.40 pm, so a decent amount of people was already inside. [Read More]

Rock n Roll sisters Good English release infectious new track, The Fire Walk

February 12, 2016

The fierce Rock n Roll sisters, Elizabeth, Celia, and Leslie Rasmussen known as Good English have just released an infectious new track, The Fire Walk. The Fire Walk is the first single from their upcoming full length album, due out in March. The single was intended to be fairly disconnected with little meaning, aside from a simple plot of a girl attending an event or party. With the inevitable influence of “Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me,” it organically started to gravitate, morphing that “girl” into Laura Palmer. Elizabeth explained, “I knew from the beginning that I wanted this song to be sassy.” She continued, “The lyrics immediately had imagery of the show and the movie. Lines like, ‘talking backwards like you’re dreaming,’ and ‘a room of black and red,’ are obvious ones, whereas others hint more at various aspects of the show.” “The Fire Walk” was recorded and mixed by Andrija Tokic at The Bomb Shelter Studio in Nashville, TN and mastered by Kevin Antreassian at Backroom Studios in Rockaway, NJ. Aside from a killer song, the girls also walked away from recording with quite the education. “The [Read More]
