Beckoning The End Tour Starts This Week

Atlanta-based trio SONS OF TONATIUH released their second LP, Parade Of Sorrow, via Hydro-Phonic Records last week, the album booming with nearly forty minutes of new material via ten lumbering sludge-bred numbers. Memorializing its release, today online portal Ad Hoc is hosting a stream of the massive seven-and-a-half minute album closer “Fallout,” AT THIS LOCATION.

The follow-up to their 2010 self-titled LP, Parade Of Sorrow which Creative Loafing fondly compared to “a plague of locusts swarming for the attack,” offers an even filthier, more dirge-ridden Southern-fried SONS OF TONATIUH than ever, making it a must-have for fans of Eyehategod, Buzzov*en, Floor and the like. The album was recorded in Athens, Georgia by Kyle Spence of Harvey Milk and features artwork by Chris Parry.

The band are preparing to launch their thirteen-date Beckoning The End Tour 2012  in support of the new album late this week.

“Their songs may be like sinking in quicksand, but they evoke panicked thrashing rather than resigned, churning misery.” – Exclaim

“…ten tracks of viscous, hard-livin’ Southern doom.” – Ad Hoc

Some Metal and Rock ‘N Roll Thoughts – Sunday, June 17th, 2012

CHERRI BOMB… ROCKS.

Say it isn’t so, Queensrÿche. With all the feuding going on in the Queensrÿche camp right now, I am not even going to elaborate nor will I take sides. I’m loyal to Geoff Tate, which makes me a “tater” and I’m loyal to the members of Queensrÿche, which makes me a “rÿcher”… or something like that I guess.

Am I taking the easy way out here with writing about the whole Queensrÿche fiasco? Nope. I’m just not going to run Metal Odyssey like an F’n tabloid, that’s all.

Here’s living Metal proof that Stone is a “tater”!

That’s really the extent of my Metal and Rock ‘N Roll thoughts for Sunday, June 17th, 2012. I have to spend time with my family and didn’t want to get too long-winded, you know? There’s some grillin’ & chillin’ to enjoy before Fathers Day is over with! Thanks a Metal ton for stopping by to read this, it’s appreciated. Metal be thy name.

HAPPY METAL FATHERS DAY! WHOA.

Beggars & Thieves “Innocence” (Official Music Video) – Stone’s Metal Pick Of The Day!

Posted in aor, classic rock, Hard Rock, melodic hard rock, melodic rock, Music, rock music, rock music news, rock music videos with tags , , , , , , , , on June 17, 2012 by Metal Odyssey

BEGGARS & THIEVES – The successful and critically acclaimed comeback album, We Are The Brokenhearted, from Beggars & Thieves was released back in 2011; on November 29th in North America and December 2nd in Europe, via Frontiers Records. Below is yet another very cool music video, inspired from Innocence, heard on the new album.

The Melodic Rock and Hard Rock of Beggars & Thieves weaves their past glory of sound with their present on We Are The Brokenhearted. Plus, once you listen to the new songs from Beggars & Thieves, you shall become convinced that Classic Rock and AOR never says die! I dig this new music video, Innocence is proof that Beggars & Thieves are once again at the top of their Rockin’ game!

The idea of adding some Rock ‘N Roll eye candy to this Innocence music video was genius! Whoa! Oh, um, yeah… back to the song. Innocence can easily get stuck in your head; the melodic flow to this song is terrific. Louie Merlino on vocals and Ronnie Mancuso on guitar have never sounded better! Beggars & Thieves is a band I will always gleefully recommend to any fan of Melodic and Classic Rock. Metal be thy name.

We Are The Brokenhearted – Track Listing:

We Come Undone

Oil & Water

Innocence

Never Gonna See You Again

Beautiful Losers

Seven Seconds

Stranded

Wash Away

Midnight Blue

We Are The Brokenhearted
