New Album ‘In Our Blood’ Out April 15th


Music Video – ‘Don’t Hesitate’ – Watch here.

What originally formed as a band to support guitarist and vocalist Matt Stanley’s solo EP “The Life & Times” in 2008, has developed into a three piece of good old rock n roll fun known as THE DECOYS. Comprised of Matt Stanley on guitar/vocals, Sean Poissant on drums and Sean Schneider on bass, the Kamloops, BC based band deliver raw and honest tunes influenced by the spirit of artists like Neil Young, Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers and Led Zeppelin.

Their upcoming album ‘In Our Blood’ set for release on April 15, 2016 is already gaining buzz for its infectious first single ‘Don’t Hesitate’. Now teaming up withPureGrainAudio.com, THE DECOYS are offering a FREE download of their second single and album title track ‘In Our Blood’ available at the following link: http://puregrainaudio.com/audio/the-decoys-in-our-blood-free-song-download

‘In Our Blood’ is the follow up to their 2011 debut album “Stripped, Bare, And On Display” co-produced by Henry Small (Prism, Scrubbaloe Caine, John Entwisle Band), which garnered much support from Western Canadian radio for their singles “I Know” and “Modern Disaster” leading them to be one of Western Canada’s most active independent touring acts.

Vocalist / guitarist Matt Stanley comments on the upcoming album ‘In Our Blood’:

“We definitely have a power trio kind of sound now. We have a different bass player on this album and when we parted ways with our former lead guitarist, I went from playing rhythm guitar to playing lead guitar. We’re also better players and songwriters at this point. The last album was pretty much straight rock and alternative. We’ve dug a little deeper this time around, incorporating elements of punk, grunge, folk and country rock and writing lyrics about everyday life. The best inspiration for writing songs is experiencing the world; getting out there, playing live and being a touring rock ‘n’ roll band.” says vocalist / guitarist Matt Stanley.

The band will be supporting the album with a tour kicking off on April 14th across Western Canada plus dates for the first time in the Prairies (SK, MB) and Ontario. (dates listed below).

0 Angry Metal Guy – Demise of The Crown – S/T

  • March 24, 2016
  • by Asher
  • · Demise of The Crown

Loaded up and fired up, “We Are Invincible” gets Demise of the Crown rolling with some rocking guitar licks that give-way to some choo-choo chugging. With Ripper Owens-esque prowess, the verses have an air of melody and the subtle harshness in Darren Beadman’s voice make for a perfect setup to the eye-closing, toe-tapping chorus. Unashamedly, this song ends up on repeat quite often.

ACCURSED SPAWN Release Fretless Bass Playthrough Video

    Ottawa, ON based ACCURSED SPAWN has posted a fretless bass playthrough video for their song ‘Clotheshanger Abortion’, taken from the 2014 EP ‘Putrid’. The video was filmed and edited by Brittany Dawn Kreatives.

 

“We figured it was about time to show people what Wei has added to the Accursed Spawn sound. To say the least, his hands flying around the fretless has caught a lot of people’s attention since he joined about a year ago. Hopefully this will give fans a sense of what they can expect when we record our debut full-length later this year.” – Jay Cross (drums)

  2. Sedate to Mutilate
  3. Clotheshanger Abortion

Bio: Accursed Spawn was formed in Ottawa in 2010 with one mission: turn raw aggression into music. The band mixes influences from old and new forms of extreme metal, resulting to date in a renown energetic live show, and a handful of recorded songs.

The band’s most recent release, 2014’s Putrid, shows another step in the Accursed Spawn’s ability to hone in on their chops and assault listeners with a wall of pounding drums, thundering vocals and wailing guitars.

The Mountain Man review on Ringmaster review

RingMaster Review's avatarThe RingMaster Review

TMM_RingMasterReview

Like brawling with a bear, the Bloodlust EP leaves concussive destruction and raw mayhem in its wake. It relentlessly ravages and crushes with five tracks of metal ferocity but like an unbridled storm it also leaves the senses energised and hungry for more. The release is the debut assault from Canadian band The Mountain Man; an introduction to a new primal force with potential swinging from every mighty rhythmic blow and sonic tirade.

Hailing from Vancouver,  The Mountain Man draws on inspirations from the likes of The Black Dahlia Murder, Crowbar, Gojira, Lamb of God, and Black Sabbath for their ravenous sound. They are essences easily heard within the band’s first encounter but no more so than the band’s own distinctive and carnivorous imagination and raging intensity. Since forming, the band has earned a potent reputation for a live presence which has seen them play with the likes of…
