OUT TODAY! STONE IRIS Release Second Album Of 2013 ‘Grande National’ + Canada/USA Dates

From L-R: Ryan Ast (Bass); Jeff Burwash (Drums) ; Juice E. Jensen (Percussion); Garret Niven (Vocals/ Guitar); El Niven (Vocals/ Guitar)

Grande National, the second album release of 2013 for Edmonton, AB’s favourite rock reggae quintet Stone Iris is now available and out today, Tuesday, August 27th to follow up their eighth studio recording ‘Kicking The Can’.  The band is presently on their second USA tour since May in promotion of the release, a 14 track voyage that takes listeners through a revival of blues and rock reggae doused in groove and North American nostalgia.

Vocalist / guitarist El Niven comments:

“Grown with love in Edmonton, Alberta, brewed in Louisville, Kentucky and about to spill out all over North America, Grande National is fourteen ripe tracks of Stone Iris’ self proclaimed southern rock from the true north, reggae music from a cold dark place. This is the band’s second full length release of 2013, a testament to our commitment to never slowing down and never growing old.” 

The album is available on iTunes, Bandcamp, CD Baby and all major online retailers.

About: Stone Iris is a brotherhood of like-minded musicians. From humble beginnings in Edmonton, Canada, their fusion of self described Southern Rock from the True North / Reggae Music from a Cold Dark Place has been blazing across Canada and the USA over the years.

With consistent touring, busking, jamming and writing, the undeniable, yet un-classifiable spectacle known as Stone Iris has been persistent in sharing their craft and passion. With a love for performing, their live show is as honest and original, as it is part of who and what they are. Driven by groove, it makes you move.

Much has been in store for Stone Iris in 2013; including extensive touring, two full length albums, the first being their eighth recording ‘Kicking The Can’ released in March and now to be followed by their ninth release ‘Grande National’ this coming August.

Releasing their first single ‘I Wanna’  from ‘Kicking The Can’ to radio across Canada along with local support by Edmonton’s rock authority Sonic 102.9 FM who named the group ‘Band of The Month’ for March plus premiering their music video  ‘Taste of Fame’ onBlankTV. Stone Iris is hitting the road for their second North American Tour since releasing ‘Kicking The Can’.

A darker and more mature effort, Psychonaut brings forth Fatality’s trademark energy and commitment to drunken mayhem. Tracks like ‘Thoughts Collide’ and ‘Before The Collapse’ delve deep into the sodden minds of their creators, bubbling with the strange alchemy of pop culture. Psychonaut is an exploration of the inner landscape of the mind, where addled thoughts and horror-polluted dreams are held up to musical scrutiny. Monstrous, ambitious, and sardonically funny as ever, Fatality are taking their unique sound and boundless energy to the next level.

About: Toronto, Canada’s high-energy, modern thrash monsters Fatality have been cranking out wise-cracking, beer-drenched nightmares together since 2003. Known for their wild, riotous live performances and their peerless work ethic, they have been independently booking and promoting their own shows, creating great merch, touring North America, and making some great tunes along the way. Few bands embody the DIY spirit as fully as Fatality consistently do, and no other bands have as much fun working their asses off.

Fatality’s debut effort, Beers From The Grave, was an irreverent, horror-themed album that eschewed seriousness in favour of hard living and good times. Decibel Magazine quipped that, on Beers From The Grave, “solos fly with reckless abandon, the bass is audible and practically so are the beers being cracked open. These guys must have awesome parties.” Hellbound.ca stated that Fatality are “a bundle of crass, explosive, obnoxiously positive energy spewing beer and shrapnel.” Part homage to classic zombie apocalypse horror and part retro-thrash ruckus, Beers From The Grave was an exciting, riotously messy debut.

After supporting Beers From The Grave with East coast Canadian tours, and being invited to share the stage with the likes of Exodus, Municipal Waste, Holy Grail and Razor, the thrash rockers went back to the studio and emerged with still more new material. Three rough-and-tumble, irresistibly catchy singles — “T.F.E.S.”, “Uppercut” and “Hammerfist” — were bundled together as a free EP. While most bands would have simply released a free record and called it a day, Fatality supported their singles with North American tours, winning hearts, destroying livers and splitting eardrums along the way. After those adventures, Fatality went into a period of hiatus. They emerged from this creative cocoon and re-instated their original drummer, Mason LeVon (brother to guitarist and vocalist Spencer LeVon, who replaced longtime friend and skinsman Andrew Suarez), and new musical vision. In early 2012, the band began writing a brand-new full-length, ‘Psychonaut’, unquestionably their most ambitious project to date.

FATALITY is:

Eytan Gordon – Lead Guitar

Spencer LeVon – Lead Vocals/Guitar

Adam Zlotnik – Bass Guitar

Mason LeVon – Drums
