The Duke of Spook, WEDNESDAY 13 has revealed a brand new video for “Cadavarous,” a track taken from his current “Condolences” album. Check it out here.

“Cadavarous’ is the most fun and campy video that we have made so far,” states WEDNESDAY. “We really had fun with this one, and it’s a throwback to all my favorites like The Munsters and The Addams Family. I hope our fans enjoy this as much as we did making it.”

FIFTH FREEDOM Release Official Music Video for “Midnight Rain”

Portland, ME Southern Rock Band Fifth Freedom has released the Official Music Video for the single “Midnight Rain” off of their 2016, sophomore album ‘Heartbreak & Hellfire.’ Fifth Freedom are a rockin’ group from the great north in Maine, but their music has it’s roots in the south. The mixture of classic rock and southern rock is a great way to describe their sound. The band went on tour with Kentuckians Black Stone Cherry for two months, and that tour put the spotlight on Fifth Freedom and brought some well deserved attention to the band. “Heartbreak & Hellfire” was recorded with Jon Wyman at The Halo Studios. The album was mastered by the Grammy Award winning mastering engineer Adam Ayan ( A Perfect Circle, Linkin Park, Nirvana) and the renowned Gateway Mastering Studios in Portland, ME. “Midnight Rain, is a bluesy ballad shouted from the very depths of singer, Alan Jones’ soul. It’s a song about moving on from a love lost by knife-twisting betrayal. Midnight Rain showcases the band’s earnest songwriting as well as their technical chops.” – Fifth Freedom Continue reading

Live On The Lot 2017: Bowling Green Local Bands Festival [Photo Gallery]

PR Image by Brian Jarvis

September 14th started Tidball’s bi-annual Live on the Lot show. Tidball’s, a bar in downtown Bowling Green, Kentucky, has been hosting Live on the Lot since 2006, when it was originally named “Rock ‘n’ Roll Weekend.” There aren’t any sponsors for the show, but Tidball’s gave credit to their partners, Yellowberri, New Belgium Brewing, Ingen, Henderson Beverage, Papa John’s, Shoguns, and Pop’s Street Eats (who catered), for the event. The three day show acts as a small scale music festival for local bands to showcase their talents. Tidball’s picks out the bands that will get to perform, choosing a handful of local artists along with a couple of regional musicians. It’s great that Tidball’s offers newer bands the opportunity to get out there in something like a festival setting. On top of giving bands a place to start a fan-base, the show follows a week after Tidball’s hosted a show to raise money for victims of Hurricane Harvey. The second and third nights also included Alex’s Lemonade Stand, whose profits benefited a friend of John Tidball, who is fighting Leukemia. Everything Tidball’s offers to Bowling Green stands well with me. The first day’s show would feature one band, Morning Teleportation. Day two includes Aluxes, Menagerie, Floralorix, Peter the Freshman, Audiodacity, Waco Bell, and The Josephines. Finally, the last day would have Lazy Sunday, Plastic Friends, The Savage Radley, Dead Broke Barons, Black Bloods, Heron and Crane, and The Black Shades.

FROM HOLLOW VEINS Premiere “Self Doubt” Lyric Video

(Long Island, NY – September 15th, 2017) Huntington metalcore quintet From Hollow Veins are premiering their brand new lyric video for ‘Self Doubt


From Hollow Veins are a post-hardcore band who formed in the fall of 2013 in Long Island, NY. While recording their first demo with producer Scott Gross, the guitarist of Long Island metalcore pioneers From Autumn to Ashes, saw the true potential within the group and inspired them to pursue their music career with full vigor.
After releasing their debut EP titled “From Hollow Veins” in 2015, From Hollow Veins have played most of the East Coast while sharing the stage with bands like Alesana, Sworn In, Get Scared, The Order of Elijah, Cane Hill and many more. From Hollow Veins have honed their craft and continue to claw their way to success.
Their brand new track ‘Self Doubt’ perfectly balances melody with aggression with thunderous guitars, powerful vocals and pounding drums. This track is reminiscent of Killswitch Engage, Vanna and Counterparts with clear growth and maturity from the band since their last outing. Their potential spotted by Scott Gross is starting to be realised and this track ‘Self Doubt’ is a shining example of that.

From Hollow Veins is:
Robert Folan – Vocals
Roberto Rivera – Guitar
Luke Lerman – Bass
Nick Montalvo – guitar
Ben Wyrick – Drums
