Smarter, stronger and musically tighter than ever, FATALITY is now ready to unleash their sophomore album ‘Psychonaut’, a darker and more mature effort, Fatality bring forth their 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.

Psychonaut – Track Listing
1. Enter Purgatory

OUT TODAY! BornBroken Debut Album ‘The Healing Powers of Hate’, Offer FREE Song Download of ‘CONTROL’

From L-R: Simon Savard – Guitar | Jesus Salazar – Vocals | Tommy Vaillancourt – Bass | Mike Decker – Guitar | Jonathan Ménard – Drums

BornBroken was formed with one simple mission in mind: Help the masses find a voice, a face, an “X” that marks the spot through the sounds of beating skins, metal strings and broken chords.

After months of writing and hours spent in the studio, BornBroken managed to take every emotion they felt, put it to music, build off of past battle scars and create a record where listeners will feel they are part of the storyline.

On their debut album, The Healing Powers of Hate, which is unleashed today, June 4th, BornBroken play out not only what life has given them but also what they want to give back: truth, integrity, perseverance, loyalty and faith in humanity’s struggle for equality.

Guitarist Mike Decker comments:

“On behalf of BornBroken, we would like to take this moment to thank everyone who was involved in the making of our debut CD “The Healing Powers of Hate”, from Matt, Hughes, Chris, and Brian in recording and producing the CD. All the media support that has promoted and pushed the CD to let the world know about “The Broken”. Lastly to our friends, family and fans for believing in the dream, Thank You. Remember “to gain you must suffer and suffer we did” over 2 yrs, but the day is here. It Has Begun, Hear the Cry, The Broken Shall Rise… Enjoy”

THE IN & OUTS Announce New Brunswick Show Dates; Offer Free Download From Upcoming Album ‘ Zero Gravity’; New Music Video’There We Go’

L-R: Alexandre Pépin – Bass | Francois -Michel Beauchamp – Drums, Backup Vocals | David Groover – Lead Vocals, Guitar

One of the hottest flames to rise out of Montreal’s musical blaze, The In & Outs, a high voltage, electrifying experience are proud to announce they will be performing inCaraquet and Moncton New Brunswick on June 21st and 22nd alongside Dead Messenger. The rock n’ rollers are gearing up for the release of their second full-length,‘Zero Gravity’ on June 11th and in celebration are offering their single ‘There We Go’ for FREE download at the following link below.

FREE DOWNLOAD – http://theinnouts.bandcamp.com/

Music Video – http://youtu.be/IJk83l6CCXY

Show Dates:

June 21, 2013 – Dooly’s – Caraquet, NB w/ Dead Messenger

June 22, 2013 – Igloo – Moncton, NB w/ Dead Messenger

Expertly fusing rock riffs with cheeky lyrics and the occasional hint of funky blues, only begins to underline the trio’s vast influences from diverse genres, ranging from Johnny Cash to The Doors, passing through Elvis Presley and John Spencer.

Lyrically eclectic and musically unrivalled each and every In & Outs song demonstrates a profound love of music and reflects the ups and downs of life and the essence of a society where creating your own opportunities leads to self-fulfilment, all of which is transmitted to their audiences through a hypnotic stream of sound and energy.

Landing a commercial placement in a 2011 Ford Focus televised ad in Quebec with their track ‘Steep Mountain’ (video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tAoRDl-VM2g), along with their songs ‘Celebrate Consumption’ and ‘Boo My God’ used for Sports Network (RDS) show H2Snow (video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i9WcXbQXYWQ), The In & Outs have progressed in the Montreal music scene and beyond, touring Europe in 2012 and performing at multiple festivals in support of last year’s self-titled EP and their debut album, ‘Ascending Back and Forth’.

Vocalist/ Guitarist David Groover comments:

‘Last year was a crazy one for science, astronomy and for us too! During a festival in France inside an Irish tent, we stopped in the middle of a song and yelled to the crowd: ”Mesdames et messieurs, right now, as we speak, we are on Mars!’ as a rover was landing on Mars while we were playing new songs for the Breton crowd. From Dublin to Switzerland and France, we got inspired every single day. You can hear in the intro and outro of ‘Sleepy Sheep’ – the last track of the album – sounds of sheep that we recorded in the south of France. The album title, ‘Zero Gravity’, is dedicated to discovery and life itself.’

The band has released its first single and music video, ‘There We Go’, at the following links:
