mixture of different sonic time periods, "There and Back Again" combines the melodic bass lines of the 70's and 80's, the pulsating drum beats of 90's punk rock and a guitar and vocal style similar to bands like Death Cab for Cutie and The Smiths.
Ill Niño‘s new album, ‘Epidemia,’ hits stores on Oct. 22, but fans won’t have to wait until then to hear the disc. The band is teaming up with Loudwire to provide listeners with an exclusive stream of the album.The New Jersey-based rockers took a musical journey with their sixth release, recording in Hoboken, Austin and Denver before wrapping up the disc. Singer Cristian Machado tells Loudwire, “The recording of ‘Epidemia’ was definitely an amazing experience. We’ve set the bar higher than ever before. I truly believe this record is one of Ill Niño’s best efforts. I really can’t wait for our fans to hear the new record. I know it will connect with many of them on a new level. I can definitely say it’s going to be a crusher but will not lack any of the beauty and passion that appears on our early records.”
So here I am sitting in traffic. It’s at a complete standstill, and it looks like I’m going to be here for awhile. The radio station is on a commercial break, and the droning promises of easy loans, easy weight loss and easy money from ambulance-chasing lawyers permeate the air like a floating plague ready to devour anyone who simply takes the bait. Man, I need something to listen to. I frantically begin flipping through what seems like countless waves of little plastic discs. Page after page, it’s No. No. Been there, done that. No. Hell no! That is, until I come across one that catches my eye: Lizzard’s Out Of Reach. Okay, mes amis français, let’s see what you have for me this time around.

Stone Sour will release the first installment of the double album "House of Gold & Bones Part 1" on October 23rd, 2012, with the second installment to follow in 2013. The album was recorded at Sound Farm Studios just outside of the band's native Des Moines, Iowa with producer David Bottrill. The first two tracks from the record can be heard in the player available below.
H A W K A I are a hard hitting power trio with an eclectic and detailed sound full of clever hooks and anthemic riffs. These guys work their limbs off in order to produce songs of melancholy, the hard truth and the obvious.

After their debut EP in 2010 which received great feedback and a strong reputation that the band has build around its name from their live performances Deceit is ready to release their first full length album with the title "Nine".
Their sound is a mix of catchy melodies, cool riffs with an early 90's alternative rock sound. I think that this band have must grown up with bands such as Foo Fighters and Alice In Chains to name a few. Most of the songs here are solid with strong arrangements and very good performances. This band has plenty of talent and that's a thing reflects to their music. "First Father" is Deceit's first video-clip and it's about a very good modern rock song with powerfull performances and attitude. A good sample of what this band is capable to offer! Other highlights here are the 'darker' tune of "Around The World", the aggressive "The Fall" and "Last Song".
Imagine Thom Yorke hanging out with Cult of Luna, you wouldn’t be a million miles from how Aoria sound. The fact that this record is mixed by Magnus Lindberg (Khome and COL) further emphasises comparability. This Stockholm trio are due to unleash this spellbindingly beautiful debut record on Swedish label Version Studio Records. Originally formed back in 2002, under the name Drive, the group reformed in 2011 with a new name and set about recording ‘The Constant’. Majestically beautiful in their slow building
