September 9, 2015

We are very excited for the upcoming release It’s Time To Get Weird from the infectious rockers, Sunflower Dead. They are set to release their sophomore album on October 30th through their own label, Bloody Bat Records. The album was produced by Dave Fortman (Evanescence, Godsmack, Slipknot) and Mikey Doling (Gemini Syndrome) and consists of 12 new tracks. The title track features KORN’s Jonathan Davis on vocals. We first came across Sunflower Dead when they opened up for (hed) P.E. and SOiL  on the Born To Ride 2 Tour in SF at the DNA Lounge. They immediately caught our attention as they put on a  great show. We have been following them ever since and they recently returned from a successful 22 date European tour with Snot and a couple dates supporting KORN. We had the chance to talk with frontman, Michael about the upcoming album release and are pleased to bring that interview to you here: Sunflower Dead is: Michael – vocals, piano, accordion Jaboo – lead guitar Jamie Teissiere – guitar “Lats” – bass [Read More]

Earlier this week, we were treated to a night of non stop rock n roll with four great bands taking over the legendary Phoenix Theater in Petaluma, CA. The “Get Your Fix of Rock n Roll” show featured epic sets by Faith and Bullets, Sweet Addiction, Delta Rose and Diamond Lane. These hard working rockers are truly doing their best to keep the rock scene alive and delivering incredible ROCK MUSIC at the same time. The night kicked off with a set from Faith and Bullets out of Manteca. This up and coming young band have been garnering attention for their thirst of rock and roll and their determination in keeping the scene alive. Their set not only included their new track Revolution  which is a call for us rockers to rise up and ROCK! Also a bad ass new song, No Fear and my personal fave, Can’t Stop Me Now. In addition, they also rocked a sweet cover of Santa Cruz’s Wasted and Wounded and Ratt’s You Think You’re Tough.

Rise Against make a stop in San Francisco at The Masonic. By Valeria Rosa

August 18, 2015

  Rise Against stopped at The Masonic in San Francisco for their headlining tour. The accompanying acts included Letlive and Killswitch Engage. Singer for Letlive, Jason Aalon Butler, said many inspiring words to his fans. He made sure to make the end of his performance memorable by crowd surfing and staying in the audience to sing. Letlive is a very humble band— after the show they went to meet and talk to fans. Letlive and KIllswitch put on an outstanding show full of liveliness and head banging. They were the perfect opening acts for this tour.   As the headliner Rise Against brought out the biggest crowd. Zach Blair, lead guitarist of Rise Against, danced and jumped around the stage with so much energy. However, Zach Blair wasn’t the only one getting into the music onstage. The band’s dancing along playing their hit songs during their set made the crowd go crazy. Rise against, Letlive, and Killswitch Engage are great bands to see live.
