Join RED9 in the making of their new music video!

November 5, 2013

I remember the first time I saw Red9. They were personally chosen by Slash to open for him at his Los Angeles Wiltern show in 2012. They were incredible. Red9 is a Southern California rock trio. Just because there are only 3, does not mean they do not deliver a huge sound! These guys are a powerhouse of rock and adrenaline. Then earlier this year, they released their CD “Under Dark Skies” and it KICKED ASS! You can read my review of their CD here. Well, here we are in November and they are ready to make a video for their song, Ignoramus off their CD. I can only imagine what they will do that song. It is great, it has a dark edgy sound with an exuberant build up.   They have just announced a Kickstarter campaign to fund their Official  Video. They had great success with their first music video “Fanatico” that included an Orange County Music Award nomination for best music video. So head over to their Kickstarter page and see how you can [Read More]

Five Finger Death Punch Tribute Video and Countdown to Vol. 2

November 5, 2013

First off, I may need to remind you we are 2 WEEKS away from the release of Five Finger Death Punch‘s album, “The Wrong Side of Heaven and The Righteous Side of Hell, Volume 2”. It is set for a November 19th release via Prospect Park in North America and Eleven Seven Music elsewhere. You can still pre-order your copy here. They have been garnering such great success from Volume 1 and I can’t wait to see what Volume 2 brings. They played at the Aftershock Festival in September and were absolutely amazing. At Aftershock, these guys come out with adrenaline running through their veins and they do not let up on their fierce energy. The crowd was intense and Ivan had control of them from the front of the pit to the very back of the crowd. His magnetic drew them all in as they were then treated to the spectacular guitar shredding by Jason Hook and Zoltan Bathory. But then you couldn’t help but watch the beard, the man himself, Chris Kael, bassist [Read More]

The Halo Method takeover the Whisky a Go Go in Hollywood Nov. 7th!

November 1, 2013

The Halo Method is a rock band from Hollywood & Nashville and is definitely one you  have to be on the look out for. They are rapidly gaining recognition and I am so glad to see it all  happen. I first heard them a couple months back and put them on my list of bands to keep a close eye on. Well of course, things have been so busy that I haven’t taken the time to look at that list. Then, I heard their name again in an interview with Jonny  Hetherington of Art of Dying and was so glad I did. Even in those short months, they have accomplished a lot.  They have been busy working on their debut EP that will take the music world by storm. The Halo Method is Lukas Rossi (Rockstar Supernova), Ben Moody (Evanescence, We Are the Fallen), Dave Buckner (Papa Roach), and Josh Newell. Their music not only delivers a blend of hard rock, alternative, metal, goth and more, but their lyrics also tell incredible stories and take you on a journey through [Read More]
