September 17, 2013

I love Metal with clean vocals and a lot of kick ass double bass. My prayers have been answered as I put on some Righteous Vendetta! These guys completely deliver everything you want in Metal and more! They have recently released their Official Music video for their KICK ASS song, This Pain. Singer Ryan Hayes told Noisecreep, “‘This Pain’ was a song that came to us as we witnessed people in our personal lives become victim to suicide. The song exists to speak to both young and old that no matter what pain you may be going through in life it can be overcome. Love is the key and it is all around us. The video was a visual representation of what we wanted ‘This Pain’ to be.” Check it out here:  These guys truly know how to give us what we want with clean metal vocals, heavy double bass and shredding guitar work.

Just announced….. Our friends in one of our favorite bands, New Politics which we had the the opportunity to catch and interview on the Uproar tour last week, have just announced they will be joining PINK on her arena tour in October. What a great opportunity for our friends in New Politics to show the world just how incredible they are live in concert.
