Check out new music from alternative rockers Stray + The Wild

October 13, 2023

Dark alternative rockers Stray + The Wild have just released their latest single, Show Me The Way. The new track is exactly what we needed to get us ready for the weekend. Guitarist and songwriter, Alan Dämien, shares, “We realize that we need to put our own ideas about life behind us if we want to write songs that can reach out to the souls of people. We want them to see what’s really happening in the world.” “We all go through so many circumstances that define who we are. People get hung up with bad habits, life events, and become comfortable in their own personal situations. These songs were written to wake people up, to show them how we’re treating the planet, each other, and every living creature, with hopes that we will individually become self-aware and do the right thing.” Produced by the renowned Mudrock, known for his work with Avenged Sevenfold, Linkin Park, Godsmack, and Deftones, and recorded by Mudrock and Alan Dämien, this single is a testament to the band’s commitment to creating music that resonates with the souls of [Read More]

ARTIST SPOTLIGHT: J.R. Bones releases 1st LP in 5 years, Slow Lightning

October 13, 2023

Today, the New York-based artist The Bones of J.R. Jones (a.k.a. Jonathon Linaberry) released his first studio album in more than five years, Slow Lightning via Tone Tree Music. Jonathon Linaberry comments: “‘Slow lightning’ is about a power you can’t control. A force that’s bigger than you and follows its own path no matter how badly you want to mold or direct it. That’s what this record felt like, and it’s something I had to figure out how to embrace.” As the title suggests, the 12-track collection Slow Lightning is raw and visceral, pulsating with an understated electrical current that flows through his cinematic brand of roots noir. The songs grapple with doubt and desire in the face of nature and fate, and frequent collaborator Kiyoshi Matsuyama’s production is eerily hypnotic to match, with haunting synthesizers, vintage drum machines, and ghostly guitars. “I felt very lost at the time I was writing these songs,” Linaberry confesses. “It was a moment of deep crisis and anxiety, but I knew the only way out was through, which meant I [Read More]

VIDEO: American metal band Sour Times are back with People Over Profit

October 13, 2023

American metal band Sour Times are back with their new track/video of People Over Profit. The track is the lead track off their new EP, Awaken The Voiceless which is available on all major platforms today. Joseph Izayea had this to say; “I’m stoked to announce the release of the new Sour Times EP “Awaken The Voiceless” on most digital platforms today. Our new video release “People over Profit” dropping on the Do Work channel also marks the elation in the Sour Times camp of seeing this record finally come to light. This whole endeavor was a long time in the making, and we worked hard to tap into the sentiments of anger, fear, and isolation most felt living through the pandemic and the never ending onslaught of war-mongering from the “profit above all” minded powers that be. Taking into the fold Chris Matthews on guitar and Monte Arnstam behind the drums catalyzed a whole new ethos for Sour Times, bringing out the very best in Ben and I, and pushing the whole project into new territory. I’m [Read More]

October 12, 2023

One of my favorite new bands is The Last Dinner Party. We have been playing them all summer and now we are loving their latest release, My Lady Of Mercy. They explain about the song, My Lady of Mercy is about being a girl. A girl looking at a painting of Joan of Arc for the first time and thinking that she looks so brave and so beautiful that maybe she wants to kiss her. And maybe she also wants to kiss the girl who stands next to her in the school choir. The song is out now everywhere https://tldp.lnk.to/mlom Music video directed by @dir.harvfrost and @dorapaphides. Check out the song and video here: We can’t wait to see them live and we see they have only a handful of US dates this fall but we are hoping San Francisco will be added.
