If you think Rollercoasters and sticks of rock are the best things to come out of Blackpool, then you haven't heard of the UK Metal band, Ravenface!
The band had been on a creative hiatus but we are thrilled to announce their return with a solid new video! This is also the debut release with Ravenface for new member Leah Woodward (Aliases). Ravenface have dropped a hot new video for their single Fighters which takes some inspiration from the hit movie, Sin City. The single is one of many incredible tracks from their upcoming album Breathe Again set for release later this year. "After a fairly light start with our first single, Fighters is a much more riff driven, heavier tune. The lyrics touch on a couple of concepts. The main being battling depression and picking yourself up from that and well, fighting!" "We worked alongside Rich from Dark Fable for the video concept and eventually landed on a Sin City type theme with very stylistic patterns on monochrome. It was a blast to shoot!" - James Denton, Vocals MEET THE BAND! JAMES DENTON, Vocals JACK ORMOND-PROUT, Guitar, vocals LEAH WOODWARD, Guitar ADAM DOWD, Bass CAMERON SPENCE, Drums

Nashville based rock band Hogan's Goat has released the Official Music Video for their single "Shit Kicker". Originally premiered on The Gauntlet, "Shit Kicker" is off of Hogan's Goat's self titled, debut album.
“We went out to Montana, fucked around, and summoned the spirit of the 'Shit Kicker.' No but seriously, from the moment we wrote it, we knew “Shit Kicker” would be the best representation of our style. A song about true grit, unwavering courage, and standing your ground. Our goal was to symbolically showcase the Shit Kicker that lives in all of us; no matter who you are, or where you’re from. We want to give a special thanks to Walter and Cassie Runsabove, who sat down with us after filming, and gave us a lesson on Native American culture over breakfast. We would also like to thank Curley, Ed Fick, and there rest of the Billings Road Dogs for letting us crash their toy drive, film part of 'Shit Kicker,' and play a few songs for them. That wouldn’t have been possible without the help of Montana Mobile Stage and Productions, too!

Enjoy!" - Tommy Victor PRONG has also announced the continuation of their ZERO DAYS TOUR with a series of West Coast dates alongside POWERFLO. After a solid year of touring with the likes of Testament, Obituary, Sepultura, and Exodus, as well as filling key slots on the European Summer Festival Circuit, the band now brings it back home to the states, including a highly coveted, co-headlining run with HELMET.

Distilling hip-hop, heavy metal, punk, and rock into a potent sonic strain, POWERFLO lives up to its name. The vision of GRAMMY Award-nominated Cypress Hill spitter Sen Dog, downset. guitarist Rogelio "Ray" Lozano, Biohazard vocalist and guitarist Billy Graziadei and ex-Fear Factory bassist Cristian Olde Wolbers, the band draws on thie powerhouse pedigree to collectively smash boundaries with their 2017 self-titled debut. "Prong is absolutely ecstatic about this upcoming, quick West Coast run with POWERFLO. We are very happy to announce this run of shows with these guys.

I've dealt with feeling that way numerous times in my life. The main idea is, as the very last line says, "and so you seek you'll find", meaning that if you've lost who you WERE, you have to take the necessary steps to rediscover that person and apply it to who you ARE now. There is a constant search for answers and a feeling of hopelessness in there that I think everyone can identify with, yet maintaining a positive outlook about your want and need to grow as a person.'
"One Last Grasp At Hope is inadvertently a concept album when you get into the lyrical content along with the mood the individual songs create. Each track deals with an underlying sense of light at the end of the tunnel. There will always be moments of despair, sadness, anger, emptiness, happiness and joy. Each time you have any of those said moments though, one thing always remains, the hope we cling to for things to get better or to stay as life affirming and as joyous as they are at that very time and place. We grab at that every day. One last grasp at hope...." A Gathering of None are a quintet comprised of musicians from all over the north, southeast, and southwest United States. AGON began as a one-man project, with TB (formerly of horror punk underground icons Blitzkid) recording the 2013 EP "Purging Empty Promises" entirely on his own, performing all instruments as well as vocals. Their second release, the full length Nothing Left to Lose, in 2015 saw the addition of long time collaborator Chris White on drums and Justin Travis Osburn on guitar. A Gathering of None made their live debut in 2016, adding guitarist Jeff Grunn and bassist Ken Belcher to round out the lineup. This lineup returned to the studio to record AGON's second full length release, 2018's "One Last Grasp at Hope." AGON draw influence from a variety of musical styles including melodic punk, 90's grunge and alternative, posthardcore, stoner rock, and progressive metal. Despite the breadth and diversity of backgrounds and influences, the band exists as five people all with the same goal in mind, to bring something nostalgic yet entirely modern and multifaceted to the heavy rock genre. If you like groove laden songs with heavy guitars, inhumanly proficient drums, prog rock bass lines, hooks a plenty, and more vocal harmonies than you can count, then you have just found your new favorite band. A Gathering of None is: TB - guitars/lead vocals Justin - backing vocals/guitars Jeff - backing vocals/guitars Ken - bass guitars Chris - backing vocals/drums |
