“I think it’ll just get a little more ugly this time, we’ll get a little more dirty, a little louder and heavier this time. So yeah, it’s gonna be fun, it’s been two years since we’ve been there and we’re super stoked to be coming back.” From Release: WEDNESDAY 13 has firmly cemented himself as the undisputed leader in Horrorpunk.

“I guess we just know each other’s strengths and weaknesses, we’re one of those bands that hasn’t gone through too many member changes and the guys that we’ve got are really trustworthy and we know our parts in the band and we rely on each other a lot, which is great that you have that sort of backup and support […]

“Isn’t it bazaar that all we are is a band, two guitars, drums, bass and a vocalist and we just write about our experiences and our lives around us and what we did and we’re like this thing, and I don’t know one other band that’s making new, traditional rock and roll records and this has been going on since […]

“We’ve had a lot of ups and downs and I think we’ve grown as musicians, but not only as musicians we’ve grown as people and I think that now after all these years everyone in this band is finally in a spot where we can finally look up and look around and finally take a breather you get what I’m […]

“…the first time we were together there was a certain type of magic that was there that I felt just something that I couldn’t put my finger on at the time but I knew that we had something special and we still have that when we get together on stage. I don’t know, we just get up there and throw […]

“I mean when we started the band it was to have something to do and have fun with friends and I think in a lot of ways it’s the same thing, as we do have fun together and that’s an important thing because if we put out an album every year or every second year it wouldn’t be that fun, […]

”You know I just think we’re a much, much more focused in what we want to do and we’ve got a really great way of making things sound better now, I think we’ve advanced as players, singers and all that stuff, musicians in general and we’ve just gotten better , we’ve naturally picked up the pace and that’s a good […]

“I think probably the only thing that we try and do is not copy ourselves to make sure that we set the scales for our own self critiquing to high, not to unobtainable heights because obviously that would kill any project but just to make sure we don’t take the easy way out and that we don’t copy ourselves.” From […]

“I think that our love for music has just substantially grown, exponentially it’s grown and at this point it’s really, really special that people are still allowing us the opportunity to make records and giving us the chance to see where it goes and I think that’s something that we certainly don’t take for granted.” From Release: THE MAINE, Arizona’s […]

“Really we just play a rock and roll show, there’s no tracks or trickery, we don’t even use a click track, we just kind of plug in play and what you see is what you get. We like it, we get to ride the wave of the audience…” From Release: Pennsylvania-natives Halestorm have left an indelible impression on the hard […]

“So I think what you really need to do is come with an open mind if you’ve never seen the band and participate and I think participation is really the key to having that combustion between that audience and the band.” From Release: From hell they came… in April 1977 at the dawn of the punk movement, THE MISFITS were […]

“It’ll be great family entertainment, I wrestle a great white shark and then after that we have dancing bears, grizzly bears and then we introduce everyone to the Black Label fall fashion line of men’s lingerie, so it’s a very exciting evening *laughs* there’s also a lot of choreography going on, it’s just a delight to the senses. *laughs*” From […]

“…we’re pretty much there just to have a good time, it’s not really about metal and it’s not about being serious, it’s just about having fun.

“I think we used the new album to escape from the upheaval we went through, the upheaval with management. Obviously we did the comeback and when you do a comeback for us it wasn’t really a comeback, we just wanted to get together again and do an album…” From Release: THE DARKNESS, multi award winning, multi-million selling megaband formed in 2000 […]

“The idea mainly spawned from when we were away a lot over the last couple of years.  We always have to introduce ourselves and say here have a listen prior to going in and giving them sampler things and all that stuff. I don’t know, it kind of dawned on us that when you’re doing that sort of stuff how […]

“So after the first record I think we were like we’re not going to go through that experience again, I mean not that it was a terrible thing it wasn’t at all, this album sounds a lot truer to who we are, the each of us, and the people that have heard it so far have all said that, like […]

“…I mean it’s basically if you think about  rock concert that you’ve been to and you multiply it by ten, it’s kind of more, it’s louder and faster and more jumping *laughs* cooler clothes, better guitar playing, you know, the usual… it’s the same thing, just more and better *laughs*” From Release: Australian audiences require no introduction to The Hives. The five-piece […]

“…it’s mainly about performing and the atmosphere when you do perform and one of the most important things for us is to have this sense of well almost community, we want everyone to be involved and we don’t want anyone to feel left out and it’s more about everyone in the room than it is us…” From Bio: Pulled Apart […]

“…as long as we all enjoy playing together and coming up with new songs we’ve just got to keep doing it and enjoy it while we can because the realisation of Steve’s passing, were only here for one shot in life so we’ve got to do it while we’re here and enjoy it, so that’s kind of the path we […]

“I think it’s through and through a Coheed album in the sense that it explores different territories of the band. And in different way than we ever have before. And that is something Coheed had done with every record.” From Release: The Color Before The Sun is the outfit’s eighth studio album and their first non-conceptual release, with the previous […]

So it’s fun, I enjoy doing it.” From release: As an original and founding member of Slayer, Lombardo has performed with Slayer on seven albums, including their ground-breaking […]

“I think we were worried for about a year but when it happened it felt like we were launched into space and our lives were never the same. It’s hard to explain but I can say that every boy hood rock and roll dream I ever had came true … and then some.” From release: In recent years, the tale […]

“This is our sixth record in, Five Finger Death Punch has become a well-oiled machine and we do the things that we do and do them very well, everything is gelling in the sense that everybody writes together and all the ideas are bounced off one another, so pretty much a continuation of the process really.” From release: FIVE FINGER […]

“…these days what seems to remain  of Dr Hook is a sound that people remember, and this many years later that sound almost causes a sense memory, I can tell by what people say to me it’s almost like you smell chicken and you think of your mom’s house *laughs*, so I want this music to sound like they remember […]

“…we pretty much just went in and we never deviated from it we never thought we had to appease someone that might like screaming, someone that might like singing, we just purely stayed true to what we wanted to do and very, very excited for people to hear it, so there’s a lot of cool stuff on the record.” From […]

That’s why we stay on the road like ten months out of the year, just because we love to play.” From Bio: Reel Big Fish was one of the legions of […]

“…it’s kind of like we know the ten, eleven or twelve songs that we have to play that are fan favourites or so to speak, and then from there we just kind of try to sprinkle in and try to represent every era of the band and then you know try to make ourselves happy too, we like to entertain […]

“It’s just honest music, it’s not like a bunch of dudes in spandex pants, big hair, driving around in limos talking about fucking chicks and doing cocaine, it’s honest blue collar lyrics that connect with kids and I think the world was kind of missing that and it found its place pretty damn quick.” From release: The mid 90’s were […]

“…it’s a delicate balance you know? When you play enough songs that everyone is satiated then also I don’t want people to barf and die half way through, so you need to figure out where that barf point is you know?” From Release: CANCER BATS have come to destroy. Fuelled by a burning desire to rage harder, play louder and have […]
