The Forgotten started in 2004 just one guitar and one voice. They started playing anywhere that would allow them.It stayed a 2 piece for about 4 years until three new band members transformed THE FORGOTTEN into an extremely diverse musical group that has shared a stage with bands such as SHINEDOWN, BUCKCHERRY, SEVENDUST, DROWNING POOL, 10 YEARS, SEASONS AFTER, PUDDLE OF MUDD, and CHEVELLE. The Official line up for The Forgotten is Chase Coles- Vocals, Tony O-Guitar, Colby Coles-Bass, Logan Brundy- Lead Guitar, and Travis Taylor- Drums/Percussion
Progressive rock meets metal in a fresh way. From the inspired minds of young musicians writing their debut album, comes an overdose of head-banging riffs, rich textures and atmospheres, untraditional arrangements, and involving melodies and storylines.
It is done. LETZTE INSTANZ has arrived at a long musical journey. The upcoming release “Ewig" is the last part of the trilogy and comes out with a flourish.
The black angel (artwork “Schuldig”, released 2009) and the white warrior (artwork “Heilig”, released 2010) will set forth for the final decision. The stories about life and all the big and small conflicts day-to-day have come full circle with “Ewig”.
LETZTE INSTANZ has ripened like a good wine over the years (14 since band formation). Countless concerts, shows in China and Russia, constant entries in the top positions of the German Media Control Charts could not satisfy the band – quite the contrary: they seek for more – the only explanation why “Ewig” has become so powerful, convincing and especially personal.
In 1994, Kosta Bayss founded APVTH in Montreal Canada and recorded the 'Motorcrash' demo later that same year (with R. Chicoine and Doug McIntosh helping out on vocals). Hating the sound of his own voice, Bayss elected Chicoine to do vocals and play bass (up until 2005's 'Resurrection' CD) but would still sing one song per album himself. Chicoine would stay on board as APVTH's singer/bassist until 2006 when friction between the two made continuing impossible. Bayss searched for a new singer, recording new songs and re-recording earlier songs but was not happy with what he found out there, and so it was decided that the only logical course was to do everything himself. The end result was 2010's 'The Goetic Sessions: Gateways to the Necropolis', a collection of old and new songs which varied in styles (as Bayss wrote for various potential new singers). APVTH operates on a budget of $0 and everything is done at no cost. Bayss is currently working on the followup CD, 'The Necropolis' which is set for a 2011 release... .

California based duo of Jeff Lane and Jim Nahikian. Jim handles all the percussion and Jeff everything else. Its amazing how these guys are able to channel the sound of 70s classic rock. They've come up with a perfect balance of prog and hard rock. From the band's name you would suspect a Rush influence and its quite apparent. Its obvious these guys spent a lot of time dissecting Farewell To Kings. Lane's vocals are quite similar to Steve Walsh but with a touch of Geddy Lee in the upper registers. Kansas is definitely an influence. I'm not sure I hear the often referenced Iron Maiden and Queen feel but I'm sure its in there somewhere. If someone told you this was a long lost album from 1977 you'd wouldn't give it a second thought. Highly recommended.

I'm a long time of Texas metal band Phantom-X. If for any reason is that they're honest about their music. Vocalist Kevin Goocher has noted on their website that their music reflects their chief influences: Iron Maiden, Judas Priest, and Dio. It's not that they sound like them but, rather, it's there frame of reference. It's all good.
Here's what you need to know about their fourth album The Opera of the Phantom: it's a concept album that attempts to finish what they began over the last three albums. Previous albums included 'chapters' of a concept (whatever that may be is anyone's guess) that finishes here. Therefore, the first 10 songs here are re-recordings of those previous songs. The album rounds out with six songs, with one, Your Majesty, being a tribute to Ronnie James Dio.
With a stranglehold on the title for coolest band name, ever, Lesbian Bed Death are set to unlock the casket and unleash their third album, Riot of the Living Dead – plus, it’s also the first album to feature new singer, Kittie Racchea.
A little bit of horror, a dash of goth, a splash of punk, and a whole lot of rock – that’s pretty much Riot of the Living Dead in a nutshell, folks. Splattered with blood, guts, ectoplasm and a sense of humour, the album consists of 13 wicked tracks about the macabre side of life.
