Headlining acts Cro-Mags and EyeHateGod were set to take the stage. Being pioneers of Hardcore Punk…
On November 16th, Heavy Metal duo Ashes Of Ares released their long awaited sophomore album titled Well Of Souls via Rock Of Angels Records (ROAR) featuring former Iced Earth members Matt Barlow on vocals and Freddie Vidales on guitar. The album is a Melodic, Heavy, Power Metal journey and an…
"Watching all of these legends on stage one last time was the perfect way to wrap up an incredible night of rock n' roll, and felt it put an exclamation point on what turned out to be a masterclass by five of the most talented guitarists on the planet today."…
I had never heard of Ginger Red before this album and was excited to take their latest release for a spin. New music energizes me, and I was hoping that this release would do just that. After listening to the first few tracks, I could immediately tell that Donuts and…
After receiving my assignment, I, like many journalists, do comprehensive pre-concert research to better prepare for show's I am about to see. I went ahead and tried to find Royal Fury's online footprint, needless to say there wasn’t much of one. YouTube was sparse on live videos, and show reviews…
On Sept 21st, 2018, veteran Canadian Sci-Fi Thrash innovators Voivod, released their highly-anticipated 14th studio album titled "The Wake" via Century Media Records.

Gin Blossoms, fresh off a U.S. tour celebrating the twenty-fifth anniversary of their 5x multi-platinum breakthrough album "New Miserable Experience," made a stop at the sold-out Troubadour in West Hollywood, CA on Monday. Formed in Tempe, Arizona in 1987, the group tore through old favorites like "Allison Road," "Follow You…
Walking in to the House of Blues on Saturday night, I was unsure what to expect from three bands that I loved during my younger years as a teen here in Southern California. Billed as Sirius XM’s Hair Nation Tour, one would expect to be immediately swept back to the…
Seattle based Sky Cries Mary is back after recently reforming thanks to original band members Roderick Wolgamott and Ben Ireland.
