The time has finally come, Combichrist will be releasing their long awaited Devil May Cry (DmC) soundtrack, entitled ‘No Redemption’, through Out Of Line Music on January 28th 2013.

The creators of DmC, one of the most popular computer game series, could have hardly chosen a more fitting partner to write the soundtrack than charismatic singer/producer/songwriter Andy LaPlegua and his band Combichrist.

The singer, who is very passionate about the game, comments: “As an avid gamer myself I was honoured to be asked to work on this project. I had a lot of fun digging myself into Dante’s psyche in order to create music to match the battle scenes and am equally as excited to license existing Combichrist music. I’m looking forward playing the finished game when it comes out.”

New single out January 21st

www.lostsoulsmusic.co.uk/

“Their sound is unique in the true sense of the word. Fusing a traditional Brit-rock sound with elements of electronica to create a sound no one has heard on a national scale.” — BBC Introducing

Lost Souls, electro rock n roll 5 piece from Lincoln, are releasing a ruthless new track ‘Black Eyes’ with an honourably rebellious art core video to match.

”Our videos are important to us, being descriptive of our songs but always in a way that’s subjective to the listener/viewer. Do we know too much or nowhere near enough? ‘Black Eyes’ puts the question to you pointing out some observational references that may seem pro conspiracy? Or could they just be word interplay?

We tend to pitch our collective viewpoint through an ab...

Manchester Indie-rockers Darktown Jubilee have announced that their forthcoming single Stay is now available to stream online:

Released on February 18th and taken from the forthcoming album The World, The Flesh & The Devil (Feb 25th), Stay is the emotionally charged follow up to 2012’s Breakdown and was mixed by world renowned producer and engineer Cenzo Townsend (The Vaccines, Maccabees, Editors).

Influenced as much by Springsteen and The Doors as they are by contemporary artists like The Temper Trap and The Killers, Darktown Jubilee’s core resonates with a fundamental knack for melody, timing and simplicity.

David Boardman from the band comments:

“Stay is the most emotionally direct song on the record and has always connected with audiences so it became an obvious choice when w...

The story starts in Madison, Wisconsin in the late 1970s. The four Emperors – Butch Vig, Phil Davis, Franklin Lee and Peter Anderson – are playing in two different bands. They all know each other, but for one reason or another never join forces as a four-piece. By 1980, as things will have it, they all go their separate ways.

The Andersons move out to California and form San Francisco Bay area must-see, Call Me Bwana. Davis moves to and then back from L.A. and ultimately hooks up with Vig to form Fire Town, a celebrated pop-rock quartet that writes and records two critically-acclaimed records for Atlantic Records and is named Rolling Stone’s ‘Hot Band’ for 1987.

But by the early 1990s Davis starts a long hiatus from music to raise a family while Vig starts a long run of ma...

‘A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step’, said ancient Chinese philosopher Lao Tzu. We all have dreams to conquer but few of us have the nerve to put fear aside and chase them by making that first move. Meet Manchester four-piece City Reign. Their full-length debut, ‘Another Step’, is a landmark guitar record fuelled by sheer ambition and ‘do or die’ attitude. It’s the culmination of their story so far, yet also just the first step planted on the road ahead.

“Ever since I was seven I’ve had a belief that this is the right thing for me to do. I don’t know how I’d get out of bed if I didn’t feel like I was doing something meaningful musically,” frontman Chris Bull says with conviction...
