A few months after unveiling its debut single with the official music video of “Mady”, French rock’n’core outfit Schoolyards just unleased a brand new excerpt from its upcoming album with the animated video of the song “From 29 to 44” available right now on YouTube
The band, which is including actual of former members of Anna Sage, Dirty BastarZ, Memories Of A Dead Man, Seven Days or Revive will released its debut album called ‘Comrades 2.0’ on September.

Official statement from the band : “From 29 to 44” is a summertime foxtrot-boogie-core song which address the causes of the recent rise of xenophic-populism in occident.

Currently the Gini index – which mesures wealth inequalities – is close to its 1929 records. In this context, Schoolyards thought it was quite fair to notify the new ordo-liberals and their paws, that it might still be time to stop privatizing profits and socializing losses: intentionaly creating uneducated unemployed angry people is never a good receipe for your future and its safety.

Sleeping With Sirens have announced the release of their fifth studio album Gossip, due out 22nd September via Warner Bros. Records.

The 11-track set takes Sleeping with Sirens to a new era in their career, while maintaining the unique spirit that has resonated with millions of listeners since their 2010 debut album. The first single, “Legends” – a triumphant call-to-arms – is out today alongside the official video, and has been named the official song of Team USA for Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games PyeongChang 2018.

On Gossip, Sleeping With Sirens have reached the artistic heights they began moving towards since their debut nearly 10 years ago. “We finally captured the live experience with Bendeth,” explains frontman Kellin Quinn. “We have the production, but there’s a rawness that comes through. Musically, I feel like it’s the first Sirens record that sounds specifically like us. We took chances, experimented, and continued to do what we do best: create art. It’s something new. It has an authentic sound that we’ve been working towards all this time.”

 

Sleeping With Sirens – Kellin Quinn [vocals, keyboards], Jack Fowler [lead guitar], Nick Martin [rhythm guitar], Justin Hills [bass], and Gabe Barham [drums]— have emerged as one of the most influential artists in the alternative rock genre, selling an impressive 1.5 million albums worldwide with over 400M + Spotify streams and 350M+ Youtube views. Since the release of their 2010 debut With Ears to See and Eyes to Hear, the band has quietly pushed the envelope, delivering a delicate one-two punch of towering melodies and tight musicality that has galvanized a diehard fan base dubbed “Strays.” From the #3 debut of 2013’s Feel on the Billboard Top 200, to the Top 15 success of 2015 follow-upMadness, Sleeping With Sirens have earned unanimous acclaim, with The New York Timespraising how the music “blends tender and anguished in equal measure,” whileAlternative Press dubbed them 2014 “Artist of the Year” at the Alternative Press Music Awards and have touted them on its cover six times.

MONOLORD share title track from forthcoming album ‘Rust’ (RidingEasy Records)


Hires2.jpg
Monolord announces their new album Rust today with the streaming release of the title track, along with artwork and track listing. Here’s all the info you should need to share the news.

The song, “Rust” features John Gamino (Mondo Drag) on keyboards and Trevor Church (Beastmaker) playing a guitar solo at the end of the tune.
coverfinal4000
Artist: Monolord
Album: Rust
Label: RidingEasy Records
Release Date: September 29th, 2017
Tracklist:
01. Where Death Meets The Sea
02. Dear Lucifer
03. Rust
04. Wormland
05.Forgotten Lands
06. At Niceae
Monolord is a rare breed: A band both encompassing and transcending genre; a vortex of heavy rock density that consumes all others. Their thunderous, tuneful heft has built a rabid international fanbase in short order since their 2014 debut. But Rust, the band’s third full length, truly exemplifies why some refer to them as the Nirvana of doom.
Monolord’s enveloping, syrupy sludge is a vibe, it’s a state of mind. Not riffs for riffs sake, but a collective buzzing, rattling and rumbling that’s more total environment than collection of songs. Together, guitarist/vocalist Thomas Jäger, drummer Esben Willems and bassist Mika Häkki create a massive, dynamic sound with ultra-low frequencies serving as its fourth member.
We’ve always been inspired by great band musicians – as opposed to technical solo peacocks,” Willems says. “Because that force of a band really playing together as one single unit is incomparable. At its best, it’s just unstoppable.” And, Monolord is truly unstoppable, on record and on stage. “A heavy groove that contains both bombastic overkill and a lot of dynamics is what we always aim for in Monolord; in playing, in song writing and arranging, in recording,” Willems says.
Album opener “Where Death Meets the Sea” perfectly exemplifies their mastery of dynamics and hooks with a driving, infectious buzzsaw riff that lesser bands would ride off into the sunset, but Monolord uses subtly to spur the song’s skull rattling rhythmic core ever onward. Jäger’s watery vocals glide over ominously building verses that erupt with the song’s insistent refrain. Being such a tight rhythmic unit, it sounds almost like an early ZZ Top record played at half speed. “Dear Lucifer” squeals and hums with slow deliberation as Willems summons Dale Crover pummel with chasm like low-tuned toms and syncopated cymbal crashes. The album’s title track is also its centerpiece, opening with a dramatic, shimmering Hammond organ intro as Jäger sings, “you are the reason that I lied/ You are the reason that I cried/ Please don’t wait until tomorrow/ There’s only pain, hate, grief and sorrow.” Suddenly, the band kicks in with a bellowing line downtuned to B that nosedives down the guitar neck as the drums hammer down for the kill. Elsewhere, tastefully understated guitar harmonies elevate the behemoth churn of “Wormland” and apocalyptic album closer “At Niceae” simmers in a slow build of rumbling guitars and rolling drum triplets.
Monolord formed in 2013, quickly recording their 2xLP debut Empress Rising, which RidingEasy Records released in April 1st, 2014. The second album, Vænir, followed April 28th, 2015. The 2-song Lord of Suffering / Die in Haze EP was issued in late 2016 amid the band’s relentless touring schedule in order to tide fans over until the next full length. Vænir landed on countless Album of the Year lists in 2015, and Rust is poised to open an entirely new range of possibilities for Monolord.
Rust will be available on LP, CD and download on September 29th, 2017 via RidingEasy Records. Pre-orders are available at RidingEasy and Bandcamp.
