n recent years, the word "change" or "revolution" often came to our ears, almost to be used too lightly. Many of those who appear on television screens, radio broadcasts, or simply on the printed pages of the newspapers in my long lost sight of what they want to say those words. What we must realize is that instead of a change we need in these times darker than ever, but it must be a desire to start from scratch, tear down the pillars on which up to now have been resting the basics of how to common life, and groped by all means to create a new reality, in which every individual that is part of has exactly the same rights and duties of man standing next to him.
Throughout history, artists have generally tried to give the greatest contribution to the various causes that could have taken place, and even today, the way in which we should all go seems to have become a point so far, there are people who struggle these injustices in their own way, through music, for example, consuming their fingers and vocal chords to impress upon the minds of those who govern this system to their message.
now!The Protest (formerly Protest for Pluto) is a five-piece hard rock outfit in the vein of bands like Disciple and Pillar. The band is releasing their first full-length record since their name change and they have recruited Dove Award Winning producer Travis Wyrick to do so. Game Changer marks not only a stronger focus for the band spiritually, but also a much more polished sound musically and vocally.The album kicks off with the solid riffing of "Reinvention," and with it, plenty of energy. The lyrics are sung as a prayer to God to be recreated in Him. Singer Josh Bramlett has obviously been working on his screams as they sound much better and crisper as he belts them out. While "Reinvention" is a solid opener, "Resist" may be the album's best track. While most of the song is the same rock formula found on the rest of the album, almost two minutes in, it takes on a Powerman 5000 vibe that works really well for the band. "Don't Waste Time" and "Throw the Roses" (about dying to sin and self) are two more solid rockers that lead up to the double dose of guest Noah's found on the disc. More»

When Sugar Red Drive’s sophomore album, A Story of Signs dropped in my lap I was surprised to discover they hail from Poughkeepsie, New York. My entire family grew up there, so there came an immediate hopefulness that the band would live up to the feel good nature of my childhood memories. Before I even slid the disc in the player I discovered not one, but two of rock’s most talented songwriter/producers had a hand in helping with this record.
Brian Howes (Halestorm, Hinder, Rev Theory, Puddle of Mudd) wrote and produced the album’s lead-off single, “No Apologies”. The remainder of the album was produced by Skidd Mills (Saving Abel, Sick Puppies, Saliva, 12 Stones) who just finished Egypt Central’s explosive new album, White Rabbit.

Biography MELDRUM is a multinational hard rock/metal band that has toured worldwide with Lemmy Kilmister's Motörhead, Zakk Wylde's Black Label Society, Sepultura, Danzig, Nashville Pussy, as well as sharing the stage with many more. Touting a combination of mammoth vocal styles along with aggressively melodic vocals, mind bending guitar riffs and a rhythm section that creates fiercely bombastic grooves, this is what gives MELDRUM their unique, cutting edge sound. Featuring a new lineup in 2008, their newest members include metal vocalist Michele Madden (Tourette's) and Laura Christine (Warface) on bass guitar. Michelle Meldrum, raised by parents in the entertainment business, began her career when she and drummer, Gene Hoglan, started their first band Wargod. Gene went on to notoriety with Death, Dark Angel, Testament, Fear Factory, Strapping Young Lad and many others, while Michelle founded Phantom Blue (on Shrapnel, Roadrunner, and Geffen Records).
