SINGLE BULLET THEORY have made the recently recorded track “Edge of Broken” available for download via their Bandcamp page at: http://singlebullettheory.bandcamp.com/. The song is a reworked piece of older material that will appear as a bonus track on the band’s forthcoming self-titled album, which the band is set to record this fall. Guitarist/vocalist Matt DiFabio had the following to say about “Edge of Broken”:

“This is the song that got the band moving again after an almost three-year hiatus. Written about the rise and fall of Single Bullet Theory and the “Never Say Die” approach that I (Matt DiFabio) has toward this band or my musical vision. I personally feel that this is one of the best SBT tracks ever recorded as it exemplifies exactly what this band is made of musically. This track really came to life by the help of Mr. John Ruszin III. Everyone reaches the “Edge of Broken” at one point in their life… It’s all about what you do once you get there!”

“Edge of Broken” is available for $1 at singlebullettheory.bandcamp.com. The band recently completed a video for the track which is set to debut on July 1st.

SINGLE BULLET THEORY is currently gearing up for the North American Devastation Tour with INTO ETERNITY and RIKISHA. The tour will kick off on August 9th in Cudahy, WI.  SINGLE BULLET THEORY will stay out on the road until August 21st and then hit the studio to record their fifth full-length album.

HOLLYWOOD BURNOUTS – German Rockers To Release Debut Album “Excess All Areas” In North America

Posted in glam rock, Hard Rock, hard rock albums, Heavy Metal, Music, rock music, rock music news, sleaze rock with tags , , , , , , , on June 20, 2012 by Metal Odyssey

Augsburg, Germany-based Sleaze/Glam quartet HOLLYWOOD BURNOUTS will release their debut full-length in North America this July 31st, via Rock Road Records and Soulfood Distribution.

Boasting melodies and choruses obviously inspired by the massively popular Glam and Hard Rock heroes of the ’80s and early ’90s, with straightforward riffs and influences rooted in blues and classic Heavy Metal channeling through their infectious tunes, HOLLYWOOD BURNOUTS released a successful demo in 2009, followed by a self-titled EP in 2010 since their 2008 formation. The band have attracted a massive fanbase throughout Germany and well beyond at this point, having performed on national and international shows supporting Cinderella, Bonfire, Hardcore Superstar, Crashdiet, Dokken and many others.

HOLLYWOOD BURNOUTS‘ debut album, Excess All Areas, was released to critical acclaim within the European territories in March, and the forthcoming North American release should bring a whole new realm of fans into their world. Here the band proves why they’re considered to be one of Germany’s most successful new Hard Rock bands.

Rock out to four new songs from Excess All Areas and much more RIGHT HERE.

Excess All Areas Track Listing:

01. Hands Of Rock

02. Tonight

03. Wild Side

04. A Part Of My Heart

05. Gimme, Gimme, Gimme

06. I Wanna Ride

07. Kings Of Sin

08. 8 Lives Gone

09. Fake Baby

10. Wild At Heart

11. Everybody Needs A Hero

12. Remember Me

DER HUNDS “HOME” – 4 Song EP Packs An Impressive Hard Rockin’ Wallop! Stone’s Metal Pick Of The Day!

Posted in alternative rock, garage rock, grunge, Hard Rock, Heavy Metal, Music, rock music, rock music news with tags , , , , , , , on June 20, 2012 by Metal Odyssey

DER HUNDS – They’re based in Bulgaria / Eastern Europe and they ROCK. They’re second release, Home (a 4 song EP), was released on June 12th, 2012… and it… ROCKS. They’re… DER HUNDS and they sound fabulous! If you’re into Hard Rock, Grunge, Alternative Hard Rock and/or Garage Rock, you won’t want to miss out on what DER HUNDS is playing here on Home.

A huge influence that I hear from their music is Soundgarden. No, DER HUNDS is not a Soundgarden sound-alike band, they certainly blend their own originality with any influences they may bestow. Vocalist Bobi does sound like Chris Cornell though; yet it doesn’t come across like he’s trying to. That’s just how I interpret what I hear and I really, really dig listening to DER HUNDS.

DER HUNDS is a DIY band and what a remarkable job they’ve done with Home. Excellent musicians, excellent songs. Record labels both independent and major should take my advice and check out the Heavy Rock sound of DER HUNDS. Metal as my witness, if I was a record label executive I would have this band signed today to at least a 3 album record deal. Yes, DER HUNDS is that legit, refreshing and relevant. Metal be thy name.

All four songs on Home are Rockin’ slam dunks. I can’t choose a favorite song here, therefore, the entire Home EP is my favorite! How’s that for Rock ‘N Roll democracy? Metal be thy name are these four songs exceptionally worthy of your time to check out. Home is available to stream and/or purchase at the DER HUNDS Bandcamp page by clicking the link below:

http://derhunds.bandcamp.com/

DER HUNDS:

Bobi – vocals & guitars

Marto – bass

Pifa – drums

Vili – guitars

HOME – Track Listing:

Homesick

Too Much

Silver Sun

Waterfall
