January 27, 2025

Time to crank it up loud and check out the new single Sinner or Saint from rockers Juliet’s Not Dead. The song is off their upcoming album, This World Is Ours, which is set for a February 7th release.  The infectious new track delivers high energy rock with driving guitars and vocals that grab your attention. The song has a superb transition in it that highlights the talent this band holds, it is powerful and rockin. We anxiously await the new album and  WE ARE READY!  Stevie Stoker comments, “Musically, Sinner Or Saint is a high paced, powerful rock song with lots of layers. It then includes a total change of feel in the mid-section before returning to its flat out approach until the end.The song is a tale of someone questioning their own mortality asking ‘do you trust me?’ and praying to a greater being for help during this difficult time. It’s a situation I think many of us can relate to.  However the song does have a total change of pace in the middle, when [Read More]

The Anix delivers raw emotion with latest rock single, Panic

June 19, 2024

The Anix delivers depths of raw emotion in the latest single, Panic. The song is off the upcoming album, VOLTAGE which is set for release later this year. The Anix is the alternative / electronic-rock project of Los Angeles artist/producer Brandon Smith. Known for pushing creative boundaries with his genre-blending mix of alternative rock with dark melancholic undertones drenched in an array of synthesizers. The Anix comments about the new song, ‘PANIC’ is written as an internal dialog with myself during unexpected issues I started having with anxiety/panic attacks before a performance or speech. This started happening out of nowhere, with no warning, where I would just lose the ability to manage my breathing, which makes it impossible to speak. All it takes is for this to happen to you once, then the fear of it happening again can trigger it to happen, which creates a downward spiral of events and paranoia.”   Watch the visualizer for the new track here: Purchase/Stream: https://link.fixtmusic.com/panic   Make sure to visit the social media sites and stay up to [Read More]
