Thunderbolt and Lightfoot - Let's Be Friends

Thunderbolt and Lightfoot is a duo act but not just any duo but a folk duo."Let's Be Friends", is the track most recent by the duo. The only other track that has taken a similar name is "Just Be Friends" by a virtual pop vocaloid Luka Megurine from the company Crypton Future Media out of Japan.<br /> <br /> While the two acts are completely different in genre, it is quite amusing to the titles of their tracks being similar if only slightly. In the case of Thunderbelt and Lightfoot's "Let's Be Friends", track though, it is a folk acoustic track that takes the reign of sounding decent enough. Folk music for anyone is a type of genre that can be accepted or rejected varying on the person listening in. For me listening in to folk on and off for a while, hearing it coming from this duo act was pleasant.<br /> <br /> The track was smooth, soft, and comforting to the ears with its music gliding through. Whereas the vocalization coming from the duo themselves, had them singing in tune with one another, each taking part in singing their share of the lyrics, had them sounding crisp and clean as possible. All the lyrics of the song could be heard clear as a bell. Whilst the content of the track was right, detailing of a relationship gone wrong, having the situation settle off to being just friends for the sake of it.<br /> <br />  Not so bad of lyrics, let alone meaning for a song to have, as a lot of acts from all genres, have songs revolving around love, romance, relationships, family or friends, if not other similar content altogether. In this case, this topic of choice for Thunderbelt and Lightfoot felt right and made the right moves with the music's melody choices.<br /> <br /> The song was very uplifting, sounding more as a ballad type of acoustic folk track than anything else. It also appeared to be quite short when it was not the case for it. It just gives off that sense to it though, it sounds like you just heard it starting to hearing it ending right away. This not being a bad thing at all or a good thing more of a in the middle thing.<br /> <br /> When it comes down it really, Thunderbolt and Lightfoot is a duo of sorts that has taken the folk genre to another level of abilities for the act. Their material always sounding so much alike, this track tended to sway away from the usual source material, to sounding much more grounded and well rounded off.<br /> <br /> It really plays off to being a type of track you could see be used in a comforting scene of a film or TV scenario. It has all of the making's to do such a thing. That is what Thunderbolt and Lightfoot does with their music, they give off emotions that can interject with your own life's problems and issues of emotion. You can express it all just within a track simply titled "Let's Be Friends".

The album a debut effort titled "Flawed", was written, produced, engineered, and performed all by Gogi. Mixing being done by Corey Lowery of Saint Asonia. So how does Gogi's solo efforts sound, well his style takes to that of Alice In Chains, Highly Suspect, Failure, Soundgarden, Stone Temple Pilots, Black Sabbath, just any type of rock, hard rock, alternative act from the 90's era is what you get when listening to "Flawed" by Go On, Great Immortal.<br /> <br /> The album sets things off with 11 tracks one being a track called "Black Waters Rise", that intentionally becomes one of the featured tracks, while another has a guest spot from CJ and Abby on a track called "Colors". These two tracks already set up this album as a whole. As by these put together what acts mentioned before makes this album to sound out like. You get that feeling of the 90's when listening in.<br /> <br /> The rest of the tracks off this album like "Feel Alive", "Run, Tell the Others", "Arrow", and "Devil Didn't Care", bring out that 90's vibe more so that those other tracks had done. It has you relive the past as those waves of melodies, and vocal chords enchant you with its presents. In reality this just is one of those albums straight out of the past that you can hear from back then. It has all of the feeling, energy, and angst of that time frame. The instrumentals, vocal chords, they are hard hitting pieces of art, that is flawless. In short, you just got an album that purely rocks hard, with such an upbeat of a catchy lift it draws the music from all angles.<br /> <br /> Go On, Great Immortal the solo project from Gogi is something that needed to be done, so all could relive a time that was once a part of them. It will bring forth the memories of a time that alternative hard rock was alive and well. That is what you get when hearing to "Flawed".

This time around "Of Beauty and Chaos", has a handful of tracks including some remixes and covers. "Falls Beautiful", is a remixed version that sounds quite nice, while the cover track is of a classic 80's hit "Eye of The Tiger", done in the good old nTTx way of course. The rest of the work is pure original, making it be more appealing and fun to hear. Opening up the album is a track called "MoveDark", which also happens to be the leading single for this EP. That just makes the track much more entertaining, as its use of EBM/industrial music really pulls you into the music. Whilst tracks like "Prey" and "True", just set off this EP to be one decent follow-up.  There is not much to say about it really, it is electronic body music crossed with industrial, those genres as well as EDM electronic dance music, is a hit or miss with music goers. Surely for nTTx though, his music is really quality proven. This EP is much more clean cut than his previous release. Making for the music to be well off and in-depth to the ear.

SphereDemonis - The Revelation of the Pyramids

The album itself consisting of 9 tracks detailing the mythology of Sumerian and Accadian, takes the music to a whole another approach of the death metal genre. So those bored of the death metal sub genre, may take a liking to this style and version, of the sub genre if not maybe just a bit.<br /> <br /> Whatever the case may be really, SphereDemonis's “The Revelation of the Pyramids” is quite a piece of effort to say the least. It does bring forth that death metal appeal, with the influence of symphonic metal as well. It allows for the band to be well rounded and crafty in their music. Like take "Behold The Hypnotic", it is a heavy duty raw in your face source material type of track, that really gets in your head. "I Choose You', is another heavy hitter of a track, really picking up the pace a tad more so, as the vocals and instrumentals work overtime, sounding more intense than they appear. "Rage Array", is one of the other tracks that makes this album worthy of a listen. It brings the heaviness more outward to the ears. Vocals and music of course present but they are more than just there to be there really. They make this track stand out, being raw and intense more so than the others had done.<br /> <br /> “The Revelation of the Pyramids”,  by SphereDemonis is an album that is listenable, enjoyable, and takes a turn of the death metal sub genre, expressing it to changes that sounds decent. Quality is great, melodies and vocals work well, it just brings it altogether to sound truly flawless.

Both singles turned videos are solids pieces of work. Each showcasing Horrorwood Mannequin's craft and skill set on each of the tracks. They sound well rounded, easily crafted and put together, allowing for the vocalization to work alongside the instrumentals, each playing off one another rather well.<br /> <br /> The rest of the EP consisting of two other tracks "Negative Creep", and "Nunakka", work in the favor of the other tracks being "Burn It To The Ground", and "HWM". These other song selections keep the energy and momentum of the music flowing, as the vocal chords lash out, screaming as they do, except more angst involved, whereas the instrumentals take a direction sounding more appealing with the heaviness.<br /> <br /> When it comes down to it, the EP "Under Your Bed", by Horrorwood Mannequin is one heck of a release hands down. It takes the likes of horror punk meets rock n' roll freshening it up to be heavy metal, that expresses so much with such little effort.

During this time they have released a couple of singles off this release, with so much more in-store you have seen nothing yet from these guys. Guitarist Patrick Robertson discusses the EP, band's insight, and how they want to spread their message far and wide.<br /> <br /> <br /> 1. What role do you play in the band?<br /> <br /> Patrick: My name is Patrick Robertson and I play the guitar in Counterfeit Culture.<br /> <br /> 2. Counterfeit Culture is your namesake, but why is that? Does the name represent a meaning or is it just a name?<br /> <br /> Patrick: The name represents a lot, we're calling out the culture that we're living in today. Everywhere you look there's someone or something telling you how to act, how to dress, how to look, etc. and we want to end that. Instead of looking how the society wants you to look, we want you to be your true self no matter what.<br /> <br /> 3. What has influenced your sound and style?<br /> <br /> Patrick: Tons and tons of things over the years. Of course heavy bands like Northlane, Invent Animate, Architects, and Counterparts have influenced us. We also take a huge influence from alternative music, such as Rage Against The Machine and The 1975.<br /> <br /> 4.What are your songs about? (What specific themes do they cover?)<br /> <br /> Patrick: This EP tackled a variety of themes, such as drug abuse, domestic violence, pretending to be something you're not, and finally shedding your costume and becoming your true self.<br /> <br /> 5. Do you write your own songs? (Discuss the songwriting process in detail.)<br /> <br /> Patrick: We do write our own songs. I generally sit down at home and record some riffs, then work it into the general idea of a song. At that point I'll send it over to Chris our drummer and Elijah our bassist who add their input, and then we all get together and practice it until it becomes good enough to record with our producer Ricky Armellino.<br /> <br /> 6. How do you describe your music to people?<br /> <br /> Patrick: That's a tough question, being as we believe to have a unique sound. Generally we describe it as heavy with tough breakdowns, but also melodic by mixing in more alternative style melodies. We also use a tone of background ambiance to add to the mood.<br /> <br /> 7. What image do you think your music conveys?<br /> <br /> Patrick: We just want people to be themselves, and not let anyone tell you who you can or cannot be. That is the image we try our best to convey.<br /> <br /> <a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-QMIiIKObng4/WXZTtlH6nPI/AAAAAAAA1As/2KqoVhJEL2ckAlffTQmq33CDSUgVTPGhACLcBGAs/s1600/IMG_0021.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1600" height="320" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-QMIiIKObng4/WXZTtlH6nPI/AAAAAAAA1As/2KqoVhJEL2ckAlffTQmq33CDSUgVTPGhACLcBGAs/s320/IMG_0021.JPG" width="320" /></a>8.  Deathwish" is your newest efforts in the form of a EP. Why go the route of EP as opposed to a full-length?<br /> <br /> Patrick: Obviously you can get more of a message across through a full length, but these three songs were truly the best songs we had at the time, and felt like they just fit perfectly together without anything else.<br /> <br /> 9. What is the concept behind  Deathwish" and how did the idea come about?<br /> <br /> Patrick: Basically, Deathwish is just how all the things we talk about can get to you. If you're suffering from drug addiction or domestic violence, or you aren't allowed to be who you truly want to be, that can have a very negative affect on your conscience. Hence why we chose Deathwish to be the EP title.<br /> <br /> 10. What is your favorite track off  Deathwish" and why?<br /> <br /> Patrick: For me personally it's Apothecary. It has some of the most intricate riffs I've ever written, and the breakdown in the middle is killer. Plus we got to have our good friend and producer Ricky Armellino on the track, so that was a very nice thing for us as well.<br /> <br /> 11. What can fans expect from the new EP how does it differ, compare, and come in equal to your previous works?<br /> <br /> Patrick: Well we only have one EP out previously, and we were a completely different sounding band under a different name. So Counterfeit Culture is really a fresh start for us, and we feel as though we brought something new to the table of heavy music.<br /> <br /> 12. What was the writing and recording process like for the EP?<br /> <br /> Patrick: Basically, we sit down at Ricky's studio and we start with the guitar. Once guitar is finished we move on to bass and drums, then finally add the vocals. It's a very relaxed environment that breeds new and cool ideas, and we gel with Ricky so well. It's our favorite time of the year.<br /> <br /> 13. Why do you think people should check out your new EP?<br /> <br /> Patrick: People should just check out this EP to hear something new and fresh. The world we live in today is very toxic, and everyone is mad at each other, saying they can't be a certain way. We're saying be yourself and be happy about it. There's so much hate in this world, we're trying to bring some love into it.<br /> <br /> 14. How would you say you differ from other bands and artists on the scene?<br /> <br /> Patrick: We have our own unique sound and imagery, that we believe to be different from all the others. Just the way we portray ourselves and the heavy use of alternative influence is something new and fresh.<br /> <br /> 15. What do you want to achieve as a band?<br /> <br /> Patrick: We just want to be able to spread our message to as many people as possible, and hopefully help people out along the way.<br /> <br /> 16. What does next year hold for Counterfeit Culture?<br /> <br /> Patrick: We have a ton of exciting things coming up next year and hopefully for many years to come. Trust me when I say, you've seen nothing yet.

For the five members of Hollywood Undead—Johnny 3 Tears, J-Dog, Charlie Scene, Funny Man, and Danny—the digit perfectly encapsulates their fifth full-length offering—FIVE [Dove & Grenade Media/BMG].  Fans can pre-order the new album from here: <a href="http://smarturl.it/HUFive">http://smarturl.it/HUFive</a>.<br /> <br /> “We’re five brothers, and this is our fifth record,” affirms Johnny 3 Tears.  “Nothing gets to the essence of the music like this number does. Numerology has a lot of power. When we said Five, it just made sense. The fact that we could all agree on one word codifies who we are. It also nods back to ‘No. 5’ from our first album, because it was our fifth song. Moreover, it hints at this secret society of fans supporting us for the past decade. The number is significant, and this is a significant moment for us.”<br /> <br /> The band have just released the first single/video from their forthcoming album called “California Dreaming.”  You can check out the world premiere of the video on Vevo here: <a href="http://smarturl.it/CaliforniaDreamingV">http://smarturl.it/CaliforniaDreamingV</a>.<br /> <br /> Powered by neck-snapping guitars and fast and furious bars, the song cycles between guttural rapping and quick quips. Everything culminates on the choral chant “We never sleep, in California we’re dreaming.”<br /> <br /> “It dissects both sides of California,” J-Dog reveals. “You’ve got the glitz, glamour, sun, and surf. Then, you’ve got the super fucked side of people not being able to afford rent, celebrities being assholes, and that fake façade. We wanted to do a heavy song with a Red Hot Chili Peppers-esque chorus. It’s an old school vibe explored in a new way.”<br /> <br /> The band is pleased to announce a new set of dates in support of V which will begin on September 30th at the Louder Than Life festival. For all U.S. headline shows, Butcher Babies will serve as direct support.

The longer it festers, the worse the outcome becomes. "The Devil In Your Eyes" is about seeing that clash coming just long enough so it won't destroy what you've built up or worked for -- whether that's personal growth, a friendship, marriage, project, etc. Acknowledge your traitors, and negate their impact. Be the empire that withstands the great fire."<br /> <br /> Watch the chilling video (directed by Edwin Escobar) right <a href="http://newnoisemagazine.com/premiere-shape-devil-eyes/">HERE</a>.
