Raven Quinn is a 26 year old singer/songwriter based in Los Angeles, CA. Quinn's self-titled debut album was released digitally worldwide on her birthday, March 4th 2010 via all major digital music retailers (iTunes World Wide, MySpace Music, Rhapsody, Napster, eMusic, IMVU, Amazon/ Amazon UK, Lala, Shockhound, Amazon On Demand, LimeWire Store, Nokia, Zune). Due to overwhelming support from an ever growing legion of followers, Quinn's debut skyrocketed to the number one position on Amazon's "Movers and Shakers" chart- which charts Amazon's fastest selling digital albums- and also held top 100 chart positions in Rock and MP3 albums in general, all within the first twelve hours of release. The success proved to be an unexpected victory and incredible birthday gift for the self-released indie artist.

The songs which appear on the disc, penned by Quinn and Juno Award winning producer & engineer Dan Brodbeck, range from dark and brooding goth rock tracks to light, ethereal, and angelic ballads. The album takes the listener on a very personal journey through Quinn's psyche and vividly illustrates the darkness and light that each of us experience in life and that we all harbor within ourselves, while featuring the enormous instrumental talents of some of Quinn's own childhood heroes: George Lynch (Dokken, Lynch Mob, Souls of We) and Josh Freese (Nine Inch Nails, A Perfect Circle, Poe).

Quinn and Brodbeck were first introduced by close mutual friend and fellow artist/musician Dolores O'Riordan (The Cranberries) and the pairing proved to be quite a musical match, resulting in a continued creative connection. Since completion of Quinn's debut, Brodbeck has resumed his role as producer and engineer for Quinn's soon-to-be-released track "Catalyst" which was written and recorded for campaign use for Rover 4G -a high profile wireless internet provider. A music video for "Catalyst" is currently in pre-production and will be Quinn's very first.

Legendary music trade Hits Magazine has praised Quinn for bringing "an edge to the singer/songwriter genre", dubbed her a "rock goddess" and states that she is "an artist to watch in '09/10." Other recent accomplishments also include Quinn's inclusion on the 2011 Grammy Award Ballot across multiple categories, the addition of three of her tracks (The Window, Decadence, and Catalyst) to Rock Band Network, and an artist sponsorship with Daisy Rock Guitars.

New York based rockers The Erotics have released a brand new single entitled "Your Bloody Frankienstein" from their forthcoming EP 'Boulevard Of Choking Screams'. The single is available for purchase and preview at both CDBaby.com and iTunes.

With their sleazy antics of straightforward rock & roll, The Erotics bring forth their lyrical dealings of drinking, drugs, and all other arrays of political incorrectness. The Dead Boys, Johnny Thunders, and Alice Cooper are the primary inspirations of this band, as heard on their 1997 debut full-length 'Born to Destroy'.

October 2010, saw the release of 'Today The Devil, Tomorrow The World' by The Erotics, produced by Don Fury (Agnostic Front, GG Allin, Helmet, Quicksand, and Warrior Soul) on the independent UK label TrashPit Records/Big Zee Music. With more than 7 releases and 10 US/European tours under their belts over the past decade, and songs placed in many major TV networks, The Erotics have and will always deliver un-apologetic dirty rock n roll.

The Erotics are currently back in the studio, once again with Don Fury, recording a brand new EP due out in late 2011.

Flash Bastard is a Glam Punk group formed by singer Donal Finn. The bands first performance was at the Uhill elementary school talent show. Over the years the band included members: Danny Fazio, Shawn Mrazek, Pete Mills, and various other friends.

The angst ridden teen years had them playing punk clubs, booze cans, and high school dances. After years of achieving notoriety in the local Vancouver scene, Flash Bastard appeared in the film ‘Hard Core Logo’ directed by Bruce McDonald. After recording demos with Thomas Anselmi, and Jamey Kosh, Flash Bastard caught the attention of Nikki Sixx who immediately signed them to his label Americoma records. Immediately Nikki took Flash Bastard out across North America on tour opening for Motley Crue and The Scorpions. Too much too soon as Flash Bastard was thrown off the tour due to a series of disastrous rows between Scorpions singer Klaus Meine and Donal Finn.

During this period, Flash Bastard recorded their debut album entitled “Rock n’ Roll Must Be Destroyed” which was shelved as the band was dropped from the label. After a few sabbaticals between tours the “Fractured EP” was made available to the “Bastard Nation” (Flash Bastard’s fond nickname of its fans). Recently Flash Bastard unearthed their debut album “Rock n’ Roll Must Be Destroyed” and in preparation for this 2011 worldwide Halloween release, the band will be unfolding a series of rarely seen videos, artwork and pictures to show the history of the band up until and including the making of the this record.

Electric Sister has come storming out of the gate with screaming vocals, big guitar riffs, and songs that demand massive replays. Revival rock just got a huge huge shot in the arm thanks to Electric Sister’s new CD, The Lost Art of Rock & Roll.

I can hear the influence of the bands Black Sabbath, Thin Lizzy and Kiss intertwined in Electric Sister’s music.  They manage to craft a bunch of cool tunes without sounding dated. Thadeus Gonzales voice kind of reminds me of Dave Grohl, after he has smoked a carton of cigarettes, and drank a fifth of whiskey (that is a good thing, in case you are wondering).  His voice has that rough edge that makes the songs onThe Lost Art of Rock and Roll more memorable. The twin guitar attack of Jason Lucero and Nicholas Hernandez complement’s Gonzales’s voice nicely.

While there really isn’t a bad tune in the bunch on the CD, some of my favorites include “Monster Girl”, “The Lost Art of Rock & Roll” (See Video Below), “Rock is Religion” and “City of Night”.

It has been a while since I have heard a debut from a band as strong as this one.  If you check out one new band in 2011, give Electric Sister a look. The Lost Art of Rock & Roll rocks hard and does not disappoint.

"Undone" is the third album from Zen Rock And Roll, the solo project of multi-instrumentalist and part-time musician Jonathan Saunders, who supports his music with a daytime job as a software engineer.
Saunders has a lengthy musical background, although much of it consists of playing in a variety of Top-40 and cover bands, including a Led Zeppelin tribute band that spent much of the late nineties touring the United States.
Since then, Saunders abandoned the touring life following this experience, preferring to focus on solo efforts in his own home studio in Tennessee, and releasing the material under the pseudonym Zen Rock And Roll.

Jonathan Saunders is a classic prog devotee, his music is steeped heavily in keyboards and mellotron, with complex arrangements and layers of percussion and digital sound effects.
But on this new album, he is exploring his more commercial side.
"Undone" has early light sympho Prog elements for sure, but a strong Melodic Rock essence blended with American Classic Rock. At times it reminds of Yes merged with Styx, a little Queen here, a bit of Ambrosia there, even some more obscure favorites like City Boy or Gentle Giant.
Saunders has a voice that sounds close to Dennis De Young of Styx and some on the music on this album brings back memories of early Styx albums without the power of a strong group supporting.
The music is definitely keyboard driven like early Styx, and the vocal harmony helps to re-enforce the similarities.

"All In The Dark" offers an interesting vocal arrangement and some odd keyboards, with some late seventies AOR touches.
"At The First Glance" is more up tempo, it has some retro prog sounds but also a vintage melodic rock feel with similarities to City Boy, particularly on the vocals.
Title track "Undone" has a light melody, somehow like Genesis meets Journey without the heavy guitars. Interesting.
"Antiquated Love Song" is one of the tracks on the album that truly captures the early Styx sound, mixed with an early Queen piano-songs influence as well. The addition of a flute gives this song a magical touch. Truly a great tune.
On "Concerto For The Original Sinners" is where Jonathan embarks himself into pure prog. This is a cinematic composition, full of wonderful keyboards and dramatic movements. Also has great Mellotron getting in, it then does a bit of a turnaround after seven minutes and drives a pulsating electronic beat when suddenly the synthesizers wash over you in symphonic glory at the end of its almost 15 minutes. Electrifying experience.

"Undone" offers really good moments of music, from light prog, sometimes symphonic, blended with retro melodic rock, and some really vocal arrangements.
There's also some food for the most pure progressive listeners on the long (and interesting) instrumental suite.
Zen Rock and Roll it's one man project but you almost cannot recognize the 'one-man-ism' here, as all sounds really integral and well played / mixed.
Creative and captivating, "Undone" is a disc that anyone with musical curiosity will want to hear.
Nice.

Power From Finland !Great band!

Finnish metal/hard rock outfit Amoral has completed work on it’s 5th studio album. “Beneath” was recorded at Sound Supreme studios in Hämeenlinna, Finland, and was produced by Janne Saksa and guitarist Ben Varon. The album will be released in late 2011, with the first single out by the beginning of summer.

“I’d describe the album as ‘three steps forward, one step back’”, says Varon. “There are several nods to our past in form of long songs, intricate riffs and growling vocals. But the main focus is still on the strong melodies, big choruses and catchy riffs, just as was on our last album ‘Show Your Colors’”.

“Beneath” marks the first time new guitarist Masi Hukari has recorded with the band. Hukari – who joined the group late in the songwriting process – immediately wrote two songs together with Varon, both which ended on the album. Another first is that, from now on, Amoral has two lead guitar players.

“Masi is such a talent, it would have been a crime to make him ‘just’ the rhythm guitarist. It’s been killer to be able to do lead trade-off for the first time in the band’s history, for example. Masi is responsible for many of the guitar highlights of the album”, Ben declares.

The band documented the recording of “Beneath” in their studio blog, which was updated daily during the session. You can read the blog here:http://amoralinthestudio.blogspot.com/

Amoral will end their months-long break from playing live by doing a one-off show at On The Rocks in Helsinki on June 3rd. The idea is to break in the new guitarist, as well as trying out several brand new songs onstage for the first time. Check out a trailer for the show here:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LSPAcwyOg..Po

One of the discs have been associated with the greatest expectations of this country recently (within the progressive genre at least) has undoubtedly been the most anticipated and difficult third album Magic Pie. The nation's premier symfoband has so far delivered two strong studio albums in the form of Motions of Desire (2005) and Circus of Life (2007), and it is not without reason that the band's fans have been excited for well over three years. Can østfoldingene to deliver the goods once again?

It's probably little doubt that Magic Pie has been one of the very few symphonic prog bands that can be said to have a særledes international flavor to it. Where all too many others go in pitfall that Traurig copy band, Magic Pie not only developed a distinctive and euphonious sound, they are melodic flair and outstanding musical skills, both individually and as a group.

New since last time is that the lead singer Allan Olsen has left the band, and that the new more metal-trained Eiríkur Hauksson has taken over the space behind the microphone. This has made the Magic Pie slightly heavier and rougher around the edges of the Suffering Joy than it has been used to in the past. Where previously the music was close to bands like The Flower Kings, Galleon and Unitopia, the current edition of the band as a distinct approach to Dream Theater or Shadow Gallery. The result is nevertheless a typical Magic Pie-release, steeped in their sound and their songs.

The first half of the album consists of the suite "A Life's Work", this is divided into four tracks ranging from roughly minutes to well over quarter. This epic song sets the standard for the album, and delivers from the moment of good "hooks" and impressive instrumentation. "Headlines" and "Endless Ocean" continues ballet, and here it is first and foremost, the great harmonic vocals that make their mark. Personally, I feel Hauksson voice fits the band better than its predecessor, and once more in the band also contributes to the vocal sound is rich and good. "Slightly Mad" stands for disc heaviest and most pace-filled contributions, with it you can only dream of tempo changes, mood swings and technical instrumental parts. "Tired" is the intro along with the suite is the most typical Magic Pie 'song on this album, with classic symfogrep, beautiful guitar lines and a very melodic approach. The whole is rounded off with "In Memoriam", a bleak and dark song where the band clearly appears from a new, not to mention becoming, page. In essence, this is the most diverse album the Norwegians have made so far.

Sometimes it is hard to limit yourself when to go through such a release. There is much to write about Magic Pie, about this publication and about each song on the album. But the line must be somewhere, and for my part is the line to tell the wait is over, Magic Pie has probably delivered one of the best (yes, even though we've only got until March!) Norwegian releases, and The Suffering Joy will probably end up on the top list of symphonic prog slices for all progressive journals and web sites when the year will be rounded off. In other words, SMASHING!

En av skivene det har blitt knyttet størst forventninger til her til lands den siste tiden (innenfor den progressive sjangeren i hvert fall) har utvilsomt vært den etterlengtede og vanskelige tredjeskiva til Magic Pie. Nasjonens fremste symfoband har hittil levert to sterke studioalbum i form av Motions of Desire (2005) og Cirkus of Life (2007), og det er ikke uten grunn at bandets fans har sittet forventningsfulle i godt over tre år. Klarer østfoldingene å levere varene nok en gang?

Det er vel lite tvil om at Magic Pie har vært et av landets ytterst få symfoniske progband som kan sies å ha et særledes internasjonalt snitt over seg. Der hvor så alt for mange andre går i fallgruven som traurige kopiband, har Magic Pie ikke bare utviklet et særegent og velklingende sound, de viser også melodisk teft og fremragende musikalske ferdigheter, både individuelt og som gruppe.

Nytt siden sist er det at vokalist Allan Olsen har forlatt bandet, og at den nye mer metall-skolerte Eiríkur Hauksson har tatt over plassen bak mikrofonen. Dette har gjort Magic Pie noe tyngre og røffere i kantene på The Suffering Joy enn man har vært vant med fra tidligere. Der hvor musikken tidligere lå nærme band som The Flower Kings, Galleon og Unitopia, gir dagens utgave av bandet en like tydelig tilnærming til Dream Theater eller Shadow Gallery. Resultatet er uansett en typisk Magic Pie-utgivelse, gjennomsyret av deres sound og deres melodier.

Første halvdel av skiva består av suiten «A Life's Work», denne er inndelt i fire spor som strekker seg fra drøye minuttet til godt over kvarteret. Denne episke låten setter standarden for skiva, og leverer fra første øyeblikk gode "hooks" og imponerende instrumentering. «Headlines» og «Endless Ocean» fortsetter ballet, og her er det først og fremst den flotte harmoniske vokalen som setter sitt preg. Personlig føler jeg Haukssons stemme passer dette bandet enda bedre enn forgjengerens, og når flere i bandets også bidrar til det vokale blir lyden fyldig og god. «Slightly Mad» står for skivas tyngste og mest tempofylte bidrag, med det du bare kan drømme om av taktskifter, humørsvingninger og tekniske instrumentalpartier. «Tired» er sammen med introsuiten den mest typiske Magic Pie-låten på denne skiva, med klassiske symfogrep, vakre gitarlinjer og en svært melodisk tilnærming. Det hele rundes av med «In Memoriam», en dyster og mørk låt hvor bandet helt klart viser seg fra en ny, og ikke minst kledelig, side. I bunn og grunn er dette den mest varierte skiva nordmennene har laget hittil.

Av og til er det vanskelig å begrense seg når man skal gå gjennom en slik utgivelse. Det er mye å skrive om Magic Pie, om denne utgivelsen og om hver enkelt låt på skiva. Men streken må settes et sted, og for mitt vedkommende settes den streken med å fortelle at ventetiden er over, Magic Pie har trolig levert en av årets beste (ja, selv om vi bare har kommet til mars!) norske utgivelser, og The Suffering Joy vil trolig ende opp på topplisten over symfoniske progskiver for samtlige progressive tidsskrifter og nettsteder når året skal rundes av. Med andre ord; KNALL!
