NEWS RELEASE

Montreal, QC – June 15, 2018

 

For fans of Ozzy Osbourne, Megadeth, Black Label Society

Australia’s GREYSTONE CANYON Premiere New Video “In These Shoes”

Debut Album “While The Wheels Still Turn” Out Now! via Rockshots Records

Influenced by legends like Led Zeppelin, Alice Cooper, Ozzy Osbourne, Megadeth and King Diamond, Australia’s GREYSTONE CANYON unleashed their Wild West inspired debut album “While The Wheels Still Turn” this past March via Rockshots Records (EU/NA) and Hellfire Records (AU). The album is devoted to the love for old western cowboy films and the images these films conjure, the vast plains, endless horizons and the freedom of the Wild West. Tracked at Goatsound Studios in Melbourne, Australia, and then mixed in Canada, this album is a real rock n’ roll frequent flyer. Mixing duties were undertaken by none other than Grammy nominated producer and legend Glen Robinson, who has engineered, mixed and produced equally legendary acts like Annihilator, Queensryche and Voivod.

Teaming up with Metal-Rules.com, GREYSTONE CANYON is sharing with fans the premiere of their new video “In These Shoes”.

The band comments:

“This song is about walking the hard road and never giving up on what you want… no matter the cost… Succeed or die trying.  It’s a tribute to the human spirit that is within all of us.  There’s also a little “tip of the hat” to Zeppelin in the lyrics.”

“Greystone Canyon’s debut is a solid listening experience that should appeal to both fans of Western rock/heavy metal and classic hard rock/heavy metal.” – Heavy Metal Time Machine

“This album is full of hard-rocking guitar riffs, soulful acoustic guitar, catchy drumming and vocals that are every bit the classic metal you’d expect them to be; all of this is arranged in a way that’s satisfying to the ear.” – Overdrive Mag

“a brilliant album! Very good pieces, a beautiful atmosphere wrap the listener.Give a chance to this band, it will doesn’t disappoint you with their class, good work guys!” – Rockers and Other Animals Mag

“Inspired by classic HR legends,  “While The Wheels Still Turn” is an album that could not only sit well beside the works of those; they’re able to be so various and with a view to the futiue. With a duration of 33 min, we can find six songs and three interludes; this album won’t disappoint you!” – Hard Rock Heavy Metal Mag 

“Greystone Canyon has arrived with their debut album, While the Wheels Still Turn, and it is a beauty. A flawless homage to the bands which preceded them and inspired them, this glorious collection of kick ass tracks just teases the senses and reels you in track by track. Mammoth hooks fused with technical brilliance and that old school charm just work so goddamn well, perfectly executed and tasty like momma’s home cooking.” – Rock n’ Load Mag

“The western rock vibe that gets While the Wheels Still Turn started sees the up-tempo Astral Plane grab the attention before In These Shoes delivers head-banging groove. The latter’s deep bassy sound is thrilling.” – Games Brrraaains * A Headbanging Life

“The guitar work on this album is fantastic. But it is the harmonies that catch my attention.  “Path We Stray” has some really cool vocal harmony work that echos the dissonance used in old school Ozzy tracks.  My favorite track on the album, entitled “River of Fire”, has some solid harmony in a slower song that has a really cool build to a heavy ending.” – The Spinning Thoughts

“While The Wheel Still Turn is a strong debut for Greystone Canyon, a fine and entertaining album classic melodic heavy metal with some interesting twists. Recommended.” – Danger Dog Music Reviews

0 Out Now! Romanian / Swedish Power Metal Trio CROSSING ETERNITY Unleash Debut Album “The Rising World”

Montreal, QC – June 15, 2018

 

Out Now! Romanian / Swedish Power Metal Trio CROSSING ETERNITY Unleash Debut Album “The Rising World”

Romanian/Swedish symphonic power metallers CROSSING ETERNITY unleash their debut album “The Rising World” now available as of June 15th via Rockshots Records.

“The Rising World” blends elements of modern metal with psychedelic soundscapes alluding to the innocence of the 70s’ rock music. The album contains thirteen epic songs, widely varied in composition and arrangement. The lyrics are a natural extension of this musical experience and they are tales of a spiritual journey. At times they talk about the invisible side of the world, other times they speak of fairy tale magic characters. Human nature and the causal dynamic of human interactions are also among the approached topics.

In regards to recording of the album, singer Berti Barbera says:

“Recording this album was the most challenging vocal experience of my life. It brought back the times me and Manu were playing in a rock band, with all the jokes and high energy. The serious effort made me use a lot of techniques and ways of expression I thought I lost or never use again. This is a great achievement and definitely our best work together in a time I stopped believing in magic. There is something cosmos related in this, it must be. I can’t wait to be on stage with these guys.”

Manu Savu (Guitar/ Bass/ Keyboards) also reflects on the album:

“I wrote the music for this album as an introspective journey, like a confession, a deep soul search, a backward connection, a connection with the almost unseen world of metaphors and symbols, an essential part of our existence. It’s an act of honesty, a musical statement about what we can and cannot see, a story between the tangible and the magical world.”

CROSSING ETERNITY is:
Berti Barbera – Lead Vocal/percussion instruments,
Manu Savu – Guitar/ Bass/ Keyboards
Uffe Tillman – Drums / Percussion

About:

The adventure of CROSSING ETERNITY started in the summer of 2017, when guitarist/composer Manu Savu entered the studio with a head full of great song ideas alongside fellow Romanian Berti Barbera, the band’s singer and Swedish Uffe Tillman taking on drum duties. Although the band is brand new, the three passionate, experienced musicians bring 25-30 years of experience across all genres with them. This mix of experience and wide variety of musical influences allows them to create a sound they describe as big, organic, personal, vibrant and honest.

Enjoying the privilege of sharing the stage with big names like Uriah Heep, Ten Years After, Scorpions, Larry Coryell, Blood, Sweat and Tears, the band’s main priority is to expand their boundaries and play worldwide, finding opportunities to make their music known and appreciated in as many countries as possible.

Fueled by a passion to bring horrific and grotesque sounds to their fans, Ottawa’s A SCAR FOR THE WICKED (ASFTW) are revealing their new lyric video “Born From The Grave” via BeheadingTheTraitor in support of their upcoming third EP “The Unholy” set to be unearthed on June 29, 2018.

Watch “Born From The Grave” at the following link:

Full of face melting heaviness and a dark and evil atmosphere that offers more sickening death metal to the unsuspecting world “The Unholy” follows their 2012 Machiavellian hymn to the dead “Scars” and 2014’s brutal assault “The Necrobutcher”.

The band comments:

“‘The Unholy’ is a step up from our previous EP ‘The Necrobutcher’. It’s heavier, more technical, faster, more melodic and flows very well from front to back. Silverwing Studios did an excellent production. The vocals often alternate from low to high in range and is accompanied by powerful backing-vocals. Every track is hard hitting and overall the EP and lyrical content have a very dark feel to them.”

Since 2010, Ottawa’s A SCAR FOR THE WICKED has been clawing their way through the Eastern Canadian metal scene playing fast, evil and energetic songs inspired by horror shows and films. Their favorite themes encompass zombies, demons and other evil creatures and for them, each song is executed as a short horror story accompanied by heavy music. Like most horror stories this is not for the faint of heart. There is a fair amount of gore, death and of course a very evil atmosphere, which is reflected in the band name as well.

Guitarist Joe Lyko explains:

“A Scar For The Wicked was really a twist on “people marking the houses of where witches live, a mark on them so people knew to stay away, a scar as we like to look at it”, I always liked the idea of thinking every time we play we leave a mark on the crowd, something to remind them of us.”

A SCAR FOR THE WICKED will be hosting an EP release show in their hometown of Ottawa on June 29th at Mavericks with a line up of the city’s most deathly metal bands. For more info, please visit here.

EP Pre-Order available on the ASFTW’s Bandcamp here.

EP and Live Band Line Up:
Guitar/Vocals: Adam Semler
Guitar: Joe Lyko
Drums: Nick Rodgers
Bass: James Nopper
Vocals: Eric Forget

“One of Ottawa’s most promising death metal bands” – Ottawa Showbox

” A Scare For The Wicked will assault and infect anything that comes in contact with their aggressive, scathing melody with daring lyrical context, that is layered on pure attack force!” – Nataliez world

” Without a doubt and from the very beginning the duel vocalists make themselves stand out by implementing a solid mix of shrill highs and gutturals; hitting hard and quick, the two opposites occasionally find themselves entwined, as in “Silence Vile Temptress” and the spine tingling growl at the beginning of “Surrounded by Giants”. ” – Volume Sins (Review of The Necrobutcher 2014)
