North Carolina pop-metal icons Alesana have just released part one of their ‘Comedy of Errors” music video/mini-movie. The song comes from the band’s recent release Confessions and part two of the video’s saga will conclude later this winter. Vocalist Shawn Milke comments, “It is with great pleasure that we unveil part 1 of our short film / music video for ‘Comedy of Errors.

Vampires Everywhere release new song, Black Betty

December 18, 2015

Los Angeles rockers VAMPIRES EVERYWHERE have released their brand new single, “Black Betty.” The song will be featured on their forthcoming full-length album, ‘Ritual’ due out in early 2016. Vocalist Michael Vampire explains, “This song is special to me because it represents a part of my life where someone I cared about betrayed my trust. I learned a lot from that situation in particular and thought it to be song worthy. The human desire for fame and recognition spark some of our most primitive actions.” Check out the new song here: The new album, ‘Ritual’ was produced by Matt Good [From First To Last, DRUGS], mixed by David Bendeth [Bring Me The Horizon, Paramore], and will serve as the follow-up to 2012’s ‘Hellbound and Heartless.’ In case you missed the album teaser, check it out here: Make sure to visit their social media sites so you can stay up to date on all the latest news. ~ Enjoy, Marisol Information & Links: Website: www.facebook.com/VampiresEverywhere Facebook: www.facebook.com/VampiresEverywhere Twitter: https://twitter.com/Vamp_Everywhere Youtube: www.youtube.com/VampiresEverywhereTV

One of my favorite angelic voice has returned! UK Folk rockers Marie-Claire Berreen & Her Husbands have just released a beautiful new video for their song, Come Home. Once again, y ou are greeted with the warm sweet vocals of Marie-Claire that embrace you in a comforting hug. “Come Home was inspired by the view of a North Welsh harbour. The song is filled with emotion and imagery, of losing someone and yearning for their return, which inspired the story telling nature of the video. The aerial footage was taken at the harbour and then overlaid with scenes created by artists at Worcester Snoezelen, an independent charity which offers multi-sensory and creative activities for people with disabilities.” Check out the amazing video here: You can check out some behind the scenes photos and how they made this creative video by visiting: http://mcbandhh.squarespace.com/making-the-video.

Jacky Vincent has left Falling In Reverse to concentrate on solo career

October 30, 2015

It has been announced that Jacy Vincent has left Falling In Reverse to further concentrate on his solo career. The post was made on Falling In Reverse Facebook page referencing an article in Alternative Press. The departure was amicable and we can’t wait wait to see what Jacky has next in store for his very promising future. We featured Jacky a couple years back as one of our 12 Days of Guitarists. Jacky is one of the most awesome shredders out there today. His solo album highlights his amazing guitar playing and his impeccable technique. His solo album Star X Speed Story is amazing and it literally takes you through his high energy, lightning speed shredding. It is one of the top guitar instrumental albums out, right up there with Steve Vai, Jason Becker, Paul Gilbert and my true favorite; Michael Angelo Batio whom Jacky credits a lot of his guitar playing. Some of my personal faves on the album are Without You, Runaway Tryst, Venom Love, Fatal Envy and of course Maybe I am a Wolf. [Read More]
