November 1, 2013

It is Friday  night and it is time for Rock n Roll and time to PARTY, right?? You can check out the new video released by Steel Panther for their Rockin song, “Party Like Tomorrow Is The End Of The World” but be warned…. 18+ please! If you are not familiar with Steel Panther don’t watch if you think you are just going to see an ’80s rock style band with a cool video. Steel Panther may be completely politically incorrect but I will admit…. I LOVE THEM!!!  This video contains nudity, profanity, sex, drugs and rock and roll.   But what else would you do on the eve of the world ending??? So check it out…. [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=roRcksH2_HQ&feature=youtu.be]   So now that you LOVE that song, you can pick it up on Itunes here. We will be catching Steel Panther next Saturday at the Regency Ballroom in San Francisco.  So we will bring you more details next week. I will leave you with a slide show of the photos our Rockin Ryan took from Aftershock Festival [Read More]

Check out Mick James new video for “Speeding Like a Fiend”

October 31, 2013

Last week I was going to feature a great new video for “Speeding Like a Fiend” from highly noted singer/songwriter/musician/actor/producer/engineer, Mick James. Mick has been highly successful in many careers as well as has his own studio, Freedom of Speech Recording Studios in New York. Unfortunately, last week as I was about to post his video, it was taken off by Youtube for whatever reasons they claim.  It is quite ironic that Mick, someone who truly believes in Freedom of Speech and then yet, becomes a victim of it by the video platform. The video has since returned to Youtube but they had to start over again and lose all the original views.  We asked Mick about the video takedown and he had this to say, “I do feel I have been a victim of haters. It seems the more popular you get the more people try & tear you down. I have seen much worse on Youtube.  They had no problem letting me put it back up It just had to start over again. So I [Read More]

French Metal band DAGOBA release new video for “The Great Wonder”

October 31, 2013

I have been really digging the new music by French metal band, DAGOBA! Even though they have been around since 1997, they are finally getting the recognition and attention they deserve here in the States. They have just released their new video for “The Great Wonder” which is off of their new  LP “Post Mortem Nihil Est,” that will be available here in the US on November 5th. Check out the video:   [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cZ6FTupVoNk&feature=youtu.be]   These guys truly have a great clean Metal sound that I am really loving! They kind of remind me of a mix of Five Finger Death Punch and All that Remains. The vocals are clean and sharp, precision drumming and bad ass guitars.  DAGOBA is currently out on tour in support of DIR EN GREY and they are making a stop in San Francisco at the Regency Ballroom on November 23rd.  We will see if we can bring you an interview with this amazing metal band. DAGOBA is  Shawter on Vocals/Machines, Franky Costanza on Drums,  Zon Guitar and Werther Ytier on Bass. ~Marisol [Read More]

Falling in Reverse unplugged show proves they are Born To Lead!

October 30, 2013

This has been a busy week for Falling In Reverse  news. Yesterday they announced their upcoming tour with Escape The Fate. For details on the “Bury The Hatchet Tour” you can read more here. We just came back from the opening night of the Falling In Reverse tour, “An Evening with Falling in Reverse, Unplugged and Uncensored”. Today was the first night of their 14 show tour and it started off at Slim’s in San Francisco.  It was hard to picture how things were going to go, being an acoustic show and with a band that has such energetic and heavy music. Well, I will tell you honestly, it went SPECTACULAR! From the second these five guys came out on stage and until the last song, it was absolutely amazing.  The set included some Q&A time in between songs and I had wished fans would have put more thought into some of their questions. There were some  funny questions though which truly brought out all of the best of their personalities and it was nice [Read More]

Volbeat photo and video highlights from Aftershock

October 28, 2013

Aftershock Festival was amazing with over 30+ bands in the two days and over 35,000 attendees. Many of those fans were there to see the amazing show that Volbeat put on. I have seen Volbeat five times but this was the first time that I got to see Rob Caggiano play with them. It was an awesome set and they sounded so spot on! They played my favorites Fallen, A Warrior’s Call and my new favorite, Lola Montez. I just love that song soooo much. Check out the video that Rockin Ryan made of “A Warrior’s Call” set to footage and photos from their Aftershock set. One thing is for sure, when Volbeat performs, you really feel the energy from the crowd as well as the band. They create such an intensity that you just can’t help but be drawn to them. It was great to see people who had never seen them before, enjoy the show and called it one of their Festival highlights! Make sure you have your copy of “Outlaw Gentlemen and [Read More]
