David Bronson has released a video for the song watch the Sun (October Reprise), from his album ”Story”
David says:
”The idea was that the graphic, other-worldly look would lend itself to a song about wanting something you don’t have – and the fantasy aspect of concerning oneself with an internal vision that you could almost try to ’will’ into existence. There’s also the connection to the line-drawn, 2-D style imagery of the album artwork, which partially stemmed from the desire to have that kind of narrative otherworldliness that accompanies the comic & graphic novel mediums, both of which I’m a huge fan of.
Coincidentally Saro Varjabedian (the video’s director) and I had both been thinking it would be cool to try and do something with an ’animation’ look to it, so when we initially sat ...

RIVAL SONS guitarist SCOTT HOLIDAY comments:
”Europe: We had a terrific band out with us on our last tour through Canada – so terrific we had to ask ’em to come out to Europe with us. Toronto locals, The Balconies. A stellar three-piece, fronted by a fired-up, foxy guitar-playing gal (in one Miss Jacquie). These guys (and gal) write great songs, are great players, and definitely bring their ’A’ game live...
Read MoreRussian punks Biting Elbows reveal the highly anticipated video for their new single Bad Motherfucker. The follow-up single to 2012’s wildly successful The Stampede (which racked up over 2 million views on YouTube). Shot for the most part in a huge factory in Moscow, and partly in The Alps, Bad Motherfucker is the next installment in the band’s series of hyper-violent music videos, picking up where The Stampede left off. The video took a full 9 days to shoot, using a team of five stuntmen and a team of 40 friends.
Ilya Naishuller (Biting Elbows’ frontman / video director) appears as a bad guy in the opening scene and is shot by an AK-47 thirty seconds later...
Read MoreGrinspoon, the original winners of Triple J Unearthed, and one of the godfathers of Australian grunge rock. Promoting their new album “Black Rabbit’s”, the boys from Lismore were ready to entertain a sell out crowd at The Tivoli.
In typical Grinspoon fashion the night began explosively, with a brief wave to the crowd before creating their huge wall of sound opening with their 1998 smash hit “Black Friday” and cult favorite “Dead Cat” (affectionately labeled DCX3 on their onstage set list). This left no room for the crowd to warm up, this band required immediate attention.
Phil Jameson was at his best, his usual flamboyancy winning everyone over, myself included even though he may have used his cups of water to wet my camera a few times...

Read MoreLadies and Gentleman! A marvelous and brand new venue is enriching the colorful
programs of Sziget Festival this year. The Cirque du Sziget will host breath-taking “newcircus” productions and also some impressive shows of young Hungarian acrobats, put together exclusively for the event. Because Sziget is so much more than just a music festival!
Among the rich programs of Sziget Festival, this year a brand new and very spectacular venue is
born. Fruzsina Szép, Program Director of Sziget, said: “The audience of Sziget could enjoy many
circus productions in the previous years. Because of the huge success we decided to dedicate an

Read MoreSkarlett Riot are a young band from North Lincolnshire. The band only formed in 2010 but have already released two EPs – a self title release, and the Villain EP. Now they’re about to release their debut album – Tear me down. The band have already shared stages with bands including Heavens Basement, Reckless love, Firewind, Black Spiders, Crashdiet and many more as well as playing festivals including last year’s Bloodstock festival.
Two of the tracks on the new album will be familiar to fans who bought the band’s Villain EP – ”Villain” and ”Party hard”, so if you haven’t got the EP then buying a copy is a good way to get an early listen to two of the songs from the album.
