We are less than two weeks away from the V² (pronounced V squared) Fan Appreciation Concert. The concert is set for Saturday, February 18th at the Rock Star University House of Rock which is by far the most impressive of venues that I have ever experienced. Also performing that night will be the all-girl Motley Crue tribute band, Cruella and the show will feature Eddie Trunk as MC. Check out more details on the upcoming show: THIS IS AN ALL AGES SHOW. Don’t miss it. Bring your kids so they can see the world’s greatest 13 year old rockers perform and witness Rock N Roll history being made right here in Santa Rosa, CA. (Pssst…Eddie Trunk, American music historian, radio personality, talk show host, author, and best known as the host of several hard rock and heavy metal-themed radio and television shows will be attending the show. Eddie is flying all the way out from New Jersey to personally see V Squared perform!) You are going to love the show. General Admission tickets are free of charge [Read More]

Bad Omens have been slaying it out on Sumerian Records “10 Years In The Black Tour”. This hard working band have been garnering high praise and attention for their high energy sets out on the tour. They may be the first the band to hit the stage, but over the course of the tour, the opening crowds have grown and grown. Word had spread about this band and how you should arrive early and not miss them! We caught them Sunday night at the Regency Ballroom in San Francisco. They killed it as the crowd was instantly energized and fueled. Their music is not straight forward metal, as it brings in influences of rock and alternative, inviting everyone to join in and feel the music take you over. Check out photos of their set by our Rockin Ryan: Make sure you have their self-titled debut album which was released in August. It is filled with great tracks full of raw energy and passion.

VIDEO: Check out a new video from Youth In Revolt for their new track, The Broken

November 10, 2016

Youth In Revolt are set to release their debut album, The Broken out on January 20th via Outerloop Records. They have just released a video for the title track which has the band asking fans to join them in a movement to come together and incite change during this chaotic time. Check out the video here: The vocalist and frontman Tanner Allen explains: “‘The Broken’ is the title track for our debut record. We chose to name the record The Broken because the track is a great summary of what we were striving for, both thematically and musically, on the album. The song, in particular, is about finding your way in a world that you don’t understand or fit into, and finding strength, despite what the general population may tell you! It’s a call to arms in a way, our way of saying to come together and find strength in numbers to make it through this rollercoaster of a world that we live in. This is especially important now as our country goes through this [Read More]

October 30, 2016

Kyng returned to the Regency Ballroom this past Sunday night as they kicked off a night of high energy rock/metal in San Francisco. They are currently out on tour with Clutch and Zakk Sabbath and we were excited to catch them once again. This powerful trio delivers a powerful dose of energy when they hit the stage. You have Eddie Veliz on Vocals/Guitar, Pepe Clarke on Drums and Tony Castaneda on Bass/Backing Vocals. From start to finish, they are at 11 the entire time and they crank up the intensity with fierce riffs, thundering drums and melodic yet heavy vocals. Their energy is inescapable as they bring the truth and honesty back into rock, simple yet completely powerful. Check out some photos of their set by our Rockin Ryan: They have recently released their new album, Breathe In The Water, which I think is their best work to date. So full of raw, honest, powerful hard and heavy rock and metal. It can’t be described as one genre, since they successfully bring out a variety of musical [Read More]
