Shakra are not new comers to the metal scene like some may think. In fact they are very well established and releasing their 11th studio album on November 24, 2017. Shakra have been around since 1997 and toured with some big names in the music industry including HammerFall and Stratovarius. Snakes and Ladders looks to carry them right back to where they left off two years ago when they released High Noon.

If you're just discovering Soccer Mommy, feel lucky: the New York artist, whose real name is Sophie Allison, already has a decent-sized back catalog to delve into. Her music, which fits in nicely with the contemporary Bandcamp-rock underground, is hinged on the anxious intimacy of someone who has been up all night, thinking about love. This summer, Fat Possum will release Collection, a new compendium of Soccer Mommy songs.

Special EFX was founded by drummer and percussionist George Jinda and guitarist Chieli Minucci in 1982. The musical concept of the group changed from world fusion to contemporary jazz and smooth jazz. Body Language (1995) was the last album Jinda and Minucci recorded together. In 1997, Jinda had just completed the album Here to Stay, he suffered a massive stroke, from which he never recovered until he died in 2001. Chieli Minucci continues the project in memory of his former teammate with the 22nd Special EFX album Deep As The Night (2017), which will be released on the Trippin ‘N’ Rhythm record label. The new album features a cast of musicians, who are sharing Chieli's musical activities, like bassist Jerry Brooks, drummer Lionel Cordew, keyboardists Jay Rowe, Nicholas Cole and Lao Tizer, percussionist Mino Cinelu, violinist Antoine Silverman, saxophonists Elan Trotman and David Mann.

The tenth album by the legendary German metal band!

In a review in Rolling Stone in 1974, Ken Barnes wrote:
Strawbs moved from folkier days to a lush, stately and mellotron-dominated sound, with similarities to Yes, King Crimson and the Moody Blues. They wrote more compelling songs than the former two, and possessed more lyrical/musical substance than the latter.
Prognostic is the album that defines Strawbs once and for all as a prog rock force to be reckoned with.The music is powerful, yet melodic. The lyrics are biting, yet sensitive.

The album consists of four charted singles. "The Best of Times", written by Dennis DeYoung, went to #3 on the Billboard Hot 100. "Too Much Time on My Hands", written by Tommy Shaw, went to #9 on the Billboard Hot 100, Shaw's only top 10 hit for Styx. "Nothing Ever Goes as Planned", written by DeYoung, went to #54 on the US Pop Chart. "Rockin' the Paradise" — written by DeYoung, Shaw and James Young — went to #8 on the Top Rock Track Chart.

The new album, Killer, immediately explodes through your speakers with the high-energy “Capt Crunch.” It includes all of the Super Bob elements you’ve grown accustomed to in their live shows, sans four maniacal performers flying around the stage. But trust me, you crank this up, and you’ll be flying around your place. It’s their trademark sound, which is a hyper-hip Rage Against The Machine / Rob Zombie / Nine Inch Nails kind of thing… Kind of, but not really, it’s probably best to slip on some good headphones, clear some space on the floor and as the chorus implores: “Let the mother fuckers know who their fucking with!”

Любителям тевтонско-немецкого Heavy/Power сегодня предлагаю ознакомиться с альбомом группы Stormhunter - An Eye For An I. Хорошо звучащие гитары, галопирующий ритм и вокал, местами напоминающие старый добрый Running Wild.
