You can vote for them here: http://warped.battleofthebands.com/u/weareredlands. Vocalist Ben comments, “I think fans will be surprised with the direction of this new album. With hints of multiple genres in our last EP from heavy Rock ’n’ Roll riffs to sing along Country rock songs, I think creating something different from that was the main idea for any kind of follow up release. It’s definitely more of an indie pop rock album compared to the last set of songs, but who wants to hear the same songs twice? It’s fun to change it up and try new things”.

Our Band of the Day is A New Way To Live Forever

June 23, 2015

Today I wanted to introduce you to a new band that is truly delivering a positive message along with their driving indie rock music. They are A New Way To Live Forever which was formed by Russ Rogers of The Numb Ones fame. The band is ready to grab your attention with their new EP, Monument. Russ comments on how he started the band, “At the end of The Numb Ones the band dissolved and I started a band with my then wife called Kill Miss Pretty which was an electro-punk band down here in Florida and I wrote everything for that too but I had her for a singer. We did one show and then on a whim we dressed up as Alice in Wonderland so then from then on every show was a different theme like “We’re all going to be penguins” and from there we started gathering a lot of momentum. From there my buddy Scott who was the original guitar player from Marilyn Manson joined the band in its last year. [Read More]

June 18, 2015

Punk grunge rock band, Twin Berlin from Connecticut are at it again. They have captured my attention with another one of their new songs. They have just released a catchy new track, Nate’s Volvo that brings out the nostalgia of punk rock sprinkled with grungy garage band flair. It is raw and organic, the way I prefer my music these days! Check out their new track: Nate’s Volvo by Twin Berlin The song is off their forthcoming new album, DROWNER. We will see if we can get more details for you on the new album as I am very excited for it. In a time where music seems to be transformed and repackaged in a state so far from it’s organic beginnings, it is refreshing to see a band like Twin Berlin spotlight the raw feel of their music. For now, visit their social media sites and while you are at it, head over to their Bandcamp page and pick up their music. ~ Marisol Information & Links: Website: http://twinberlin.net/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TwinBerlin Twitter: https://twitter.com/twinberlin Youtube: http://www.youtube.com/twinberlinmusic

We recently brought you acoustic indie rockers The Phoenix Within as our Band of the Day. When you take a listen to them, you can’t help but be drawn to the emotions that their songs bring out.
