Acts like The Hills and the Rivers are throwbacks to a simpler time in music, but there’s nothing about their ten song effort The Fool & The Magician suggesting this is an exercise in pastiche or pinning butterflies under glass. Instead, this is a family affair, led by two of …

It is common for musicians these days to be involved in multiple bands. And George Lynch, best known as the guitar wizard in 80’s hard rock group, Dokken, is a perfect example as he seems to be involved in several musical entities…one of which is Lynch Mob, the group he …

It was a psychobilly freakout Friday night as The Reverend Horton Heat brought their fine blend of country style rockabilly surf rock to a packed crowd at the Brooklyn Bowl in Brooklyn, New York.  As the Reverend Jim Heath, Jimbo Wallace, RJ Contreras and Tim Alexander took to a fiery stage …

Los Angeles based, Michigan born Americana outfit Michigan Rattlers describe their music as “heavy-hearted folk-rock with an aching dose of Midwestern nice.” For them, no stage is too big or two small, this month alone they’ve made appearances at major US festivals such as Bonaroo and Firefly.

Combichrist is currently headlining the Everyone Still Hates You Tour throughout the U.S. with support from Wednesday 13, Night Club, Prison, and Death Valley High. When this tour was announced a few months back, to say I was thrilled would be an understatement. Now having said that, I will try …

It may not be the 80’s anymore and the guys in Poison may not be in their 20’s anymore either, but don’t bother telling that to lead singer, Bret Michaels. He’s way too busy running around full blast on stage during the band’s current tour to hear a word you’re …

Last weekend Matthew Marcum’s Pollock: A Frequency Parable kicked off the Hollywood Fringe Festival with a no holds barred whirlwind of abstract vocal styling and in your face charisma. Running for the month of June every Saturday night at The Complex’s Flight Theatre on Santa Monica Blvd, Marcum’s show is …

It’s hard to imagine that it has been 2 weeks since this festival first kicked off with a bang in Leeds City Centre, as many bands from many subgenres of rock and metal descended into the city, performing music for tens of thousands of fans. As this festival has taken …
