Our Tuesdays Travels Band is Cocaine Cowboys from PERU and they are going to ROCK YOUR WORLD!

July 29, 2014

We return with our Tuesdays Travels where we highlight a band from another country. Tonight we travel all the way to South America to a town where I visited back in 1983 with my parents; Lima, Peru. I am sure when people think of Peru, they think of Machu Picchu or the great food (particularly my famous Causa or Papa a la Huancaina), and not ROCK n ROLL. But Peru has a great history rich in culture/music and if you haven’t read it yet, check out my article, Punk Rock Originated in Peru with Los Saicos in 1964. Yes, I am proud to say that I am 100% Peruvian so this is quite an honor to find a band that I completely ROCKS and is from the hometown of my parents. I am talking about the bad ass rockers, Cocaine Cowboys. Cocaine Cowboys is a hard rock band from Lima, Peru that bring to life my love for straight up ROCK n ROLL. They have fierce guitars, gritty powerful vocals and a style that screams [Read More]

Adelita’s Way new album STUCK is out now, crank it up loud and enjoy!

July 29, 2014

Today, Adelita’s Way release their new album Stuck on Virgin Records. This album is the much anticipated follow up to their 2011 release of Home School Valedictorian. Stuck was produced by Nick Raskulinecz (Foo Fighters, Deftones, Evanescence). I have been excited for this release because it isn’t often that I have been able to really watch a band grow since first listening to them in 2009 as they were putting together the final touches on their debut self titled album. I knew back then that this would be one band to watch out for and knew we would be hearing a lot from them. The vocals of Rick DeJesus are powerful and commanding and can bring to life the emotionally driven lyrics with conviction and a large presence. The first single off the album, Dog on a Leash came out and once again garnered a lot of attention as it climbed the Active Rock charts. These days hard rock tends to have the genre lines blurred and a spilling over from metal or hardcore which is [Read More]

Falling in Reverse shines at Warped Tour 2014

July 27, 2014

Here we are coming down to the last week of Vans Warped Tour 2014. What a tour it has been and so many great bands have performed. We featured many awesome artists and tonight we want to bring you our coverage of one of our top highlights of 2014 Warped Tour. Of course, it goes to Falling in Reverse which is no surprise because every time we have seen them perform, they exceed our expectations, continuously raising the bar of entertainment for others. They truly shine when they are on the stage! I think this must have been the 8th and 9th time seeing them perform in only a couple years and each time was better than the next. This was the first time seeing Max Green play bass in Falling in Reverse and he did a bass ass job. In case you missed it before, check out our interview with Max shortly after he announced he was joining Falling in Reverse: One of the reasons that Falling in Reverse is so damn fun is because of [Read More]
