My love for Piggy Dee knows no boundaries. I consider it one of the most underrated, versatile and advanced musicians of our time. Beating with Wednesday 13, Alice Cooper and currently playing in the group Rob Zombie, he managed to release «The Evacuation Plan» - an album that is very enjoyable and unusual blend of hard rock and pop-punk, in 2011 and 2012 continued to Piggy delight us with his solo career, releasing one by one their singles «Can't Blame You», «God Save The Queen Bee», «The Locust Dance», «1975" (all - sounding quite different from each other), are constantly traveling while on tour with Rob Zombie.

"If someone said we ever gave a damn, they damn sure told you wrong…" Thank you, Hag.

Another summer is here. We have already seen one naked woman dance in the middle of
a dirt road. I guess that makes it official, like seeing a Monarch butterfly??

The last few months have been busy, as usual. We had a damn good time on the "Blood,
Sweat and Beers Tour" with Eric Church and Brantley Gilbert. They are good people, and
were good to us. Thanks to them, their bands and crew! The shows were extremely high
energy, especially the Nashville show which was a flat-out ass kicker! We had a really
good time, even if we did confuse a few 18 year olds…

Thank you for this column to Rémifm very honest (this is what we want!)
"DEAD CRAZY N is a French group of the Oise, whose first album was released this month of June 2011.
And for a debut album of 10 tracks self-produced, the group offers a beautiful card.
I'll start with what I did not like on this album, that song.
Let me explain. Virgil SERVANTIE is an excellent singer, he masters his voice perfectly and its accuracy. In contrast, tone corresponds to styles Pop-Rock, Rock-FM, New Wave or Progressive Rock.
Out here, we have more to do with a mixture of Hard Rock / Metal sometimes a little soft!
So Virgil, that lacks power tends to force his voice a little to make it more aggressive and I do not like.
The length of the album, it ends even get tired.
I also add my grievances in the approach of a very English school (I mean the application and the desire to do well in the recording) and a slightly French pronunciation.

If you have not come across UK rock band Skarlett Riot yet that will soon change with the release of their new EP Villain on March 19th. Bristling with formidable sounds, confrontational attitude, and a bearing of its fangs, the release is mighty; a deeply gratifying feast of heavy and explosive riffs fuelled by instinctive melodies and barely controlled energy.Villain stomps all over the senses and then goes back to give them another kicking after reviving them with its invigorating charm and infectious sounds.

Formed in 2010 Skarlett Riot has already garnered fine praise and acclaim for their live shows and debut EP. Their sharing of stages with the likes of Taking Dawn, Crashdiet, Glamour of the Kill, Black Spiders, Forever Never, Deaf Havana, and Francesqa and recent successful appearance at the Tramlines Festival set them as a band to watch somethingVillain strongly confirms. With a sound that takes the essences of the likes of Paramore and Halestorm and twists them into a stylish rod of melodic prowess to fuse with the bands aggressive and intense rock n roll, the band are about to make a powerful statement with the EP, an affirmation and declaration of intent and power from one of the best emerging UK bands.

Like a phoenix, from the ashes ... Maybe not quite, but from the sad demise of Breathing Space, comes yet another female fronted melodic prog band.Now some might say there's already a surfeit of such bands, most of whom have at some point had links to the ever sprawling Mostly Autumn 'family tree'. And there's two styles - the hard rocking road followed by the likes of The Reasoning and Touchstone, or more melodic avenue pursued by the likes of Breathing Space, Magenta and Panic Room.But all have one thing in common great front women, all of whom tend to have a pure and ethereal vocal style.

2012, Heaven Rain was founded in the summer of 2006 in Bosnia, by keyboardist Goran Ba?tinac. The idea was to create original music in the progressive metal genre, combined with influences from the Finnish school of power metal. After writing and arranging the initial ideas that would later become the framework for the debut album, Ba?tinac linked up with a fellow student at the Academy of Arts he studies at in Banja Luka, guitarist Igor Paspalj. After a few line-up changes, Heaven Rain founded a new lead vocalist, Miona Graorac, and a guitar player Igor Dragelj. Brand new Heaven Rain album SECOND SUN contains ten new songs, and a bonus cover song ,,Vejte Snegovi", an 80's pop classic by famous Yugoslavian band Zana. Some of the band's chief influences are bands such as Kamelot, Sonata Arctica, Nightwish and Ayreon.

"We know that our fans have been eagerly awaiting our new album and we are equally excited to share it with the world.

Now

Symphonic album with many features and techniques happening all at the same time. The mix of English and Italian  vocals expressed by vocalist ‘Barsi’ has opened up this album beyond limitations and this combined with the death metal growls powers its way through the path of the unknown. The solo guitars display great understand of not just ‘Neo-Classical’ shredding, but total understand of Blues and metal phrasing at its best. Heavily influenced licks such as those of Y. Malmsteen, J. Becker, and R. Marcello are frequently heard among the passages not only in the guitars but the keyboards as well. The great use of a full symphonic orchestra at their disposal has created atmospheric elements and textures to the overall sound of each track including the ‘Intro’ and ‘Von Braun’ which on the bonus track is quite simply exquisite to hear.
