Up for some punky Progressive Rock today? 

Perpetual Escape will give you some. Their newest album Into My Dreams serves you with a groove that for sure makes you forget your woes for a while, as you move into it.

The band refreshingly roams about them styles, tastes, and flavors that give every track a new twist. Poppy elements will stumble over parts decked out in Hard Rock. Or all of a sudden a punky rebel streak hits and they deliver stuff with the gusto of a Doc Rotten.

Other tracks again lead you progressively down some windy dirt … [...] Click to raid more!

Ha! Somebody just stepped out of their garage and started rocking away! In a ’70s to ’80s style of Punk Rock, Pop Rock, and plain rock ‘n’ roll that will just take you on a ride. And no, they don’t even reach us out of the US of A.

Black Absinthe! Ah, a hint of the forbidden and past debauchery, but it is not the green fairy, it is the black one. From Canada, no less. An interesting choice for a band name.

The band just served their newest EP Early Signs of Denial to the drinking – ahem – the music-loving public. And it is a good one to boot. 

Being very active in and around the Toronto scene since 2011, they will now focus on a cleaner, heavier, and more professionally produced sound going forward to reach the masses.

Spicy! Scottish, beer-guzzling pirate meets Italian corsair. Ha! Alestorm and the like have got company in the Pirate Metal universe! Even if we do not quite know, if Alestorm is still alive and kickin’, given their sudden career change. They are now employing astral dwarves with their new outfit Gloryhammer! 

But here a worthy heir to this powerful fleet presents itself, in the less astral and genuine form of Silverbones – mighty metal pirates from the South.

Silverbones 2016

The band successfully unmoored their debut full-length album Wild Waves in June 2016. Featuring mainly Power and Heavy Metal infused pirate delights, the album will take you on a pretty … [...] Click to raid more!
