Interview with Treat bassist Nalle Påhlsson
Coup De Grace is the latest release from the Swedish melodic rock band Treat. The band's bassist Nalle Påhlsson was more than enthusiastic to speak with me about the band, their new release and what they have planned for the near future. It has been a long time since I have heard anything from these guys. Back in the day, they were a staple on the radio not only in Sweden but also around the globe. I enjoyed their early material…
Interview with Jucifer guitarist and vocalist Gazelle Amber Valentine
Jucifer's, guitarist and vocalist Gazelle Amber Valentine answered a few questions for me about their new disc Throned In Blood. The band's bio describes their sound as: “a peasant revolt etched in bone at 140 db” and they have been compared to bands such as My Bloody Valentine and Portishead. For the past ten years the dedicated husband and wife team that make up Jucifer have been living out of an RV, continually touring and…
Interview with Armored Saint bassist Joey Vera
After a ten-year absence from the music scene Armored Saint are back with a new CD, La Raza. Bassist Joey Vera spoke with me at great length about the CD and the writing process behind it. Armored Saint is one of the bands that I grew up listening to as a kid so having the opportunity to conduct this interview was especially cool for me. La Raza is a really good record from top to bottom and should be a welcome…

The Infinite Order marks the return of the legendary metal band Living Sacrifice. Vocalist Bruce Fitzhugh chatted with me by phone about the new CD and what we can expect from the band in 2010.

Indeed many contemporary bands site…
Interview with Halo Stereo bassist Jody Hicks
Jody Hicks, bassist for the band Halo Stereo, took some time out of the band's busy schedule to discuss their newest release The Invisible War. Halo Stereo is a breath of fresh air in a rock scene that is overflowing with cookie cutter, dime a dozen bands that seem to be writing almost formulaic tunes. The Invisible War is a solid, high-energy rock album that is rather enjoyable to listen to. Halo Stereo's music has…
Interview with singer and songwriter Reagan Browne
With the release of his sophomore effort, Daydreams In Stereo, the Texas based singer and songwriter Reagan Browne is looking to take his brand of music to the masses. While his musical approach is a bit different from the standard Rock fare crowding the airwaves these days, the songwriting is very strong. Each track is a story in and of itself, expertly crafted to draw the listener in. Daydreams In Stereo is well produced…
Interview with KEEL frontman Ron Keel
The Eighties were filled with dime a dozen commercial hard rock bands that pretty much seemed to blend together. Very few bands stood out enough to garner the attention of the music listener. Keel was NOT one of those bands. The first time I heard "Right To Rock" I was sold hook line and sinker; it became the soundtrack to my younger, formative years. Twenty-five years later, I find myself once again listening to Keel and just as in the past…

They Said A Storm Was Coming is a heavy and melodic…

Nix expertly mixes together Alternative Rock and Hip-Hop creating a unique sound that is all his own, Note To Self is due in stores on March 23rd through Universal Republic Records.
Interview with frontman David Newbould
In a business known for its pretentious rock stars and prima-donna musicians, it is refreshing to find a humble, unassuming, extraordinarily talented musician such as David Newbould. Long Way Home Live, Newbould's latest release, is a richly woven audio tapestry that flows seamlessly from one track to the next and really showcases his talent as a singer, songwriter and musician. Newbould took a few minutes to…
