Test Your Metal Records: India’s OVERHUNG Recruit New Drummer Pritesh Prabhune 

 

Coming off their Canadian debut performance at Indie Week in Toronto earlier this November, India’s rock ‘n roll lovers OVERHUNG announce they have recruited new skin basher Pritesh Prabhune whom is also an accomplished live sound engineer who has mixed the likes of Wolfmother and Puddle Of Mudd plus stage managed for Incubus and Alt J on their recent appearances in India. Prabhune replaces the band’s long time drummer and founding member Sheldon Dixon.

Vocalist Sujit Kumar comments:

“Sheldon has been a part of every milestone Overhung has had as a band thus far. We wish him the best of luck his future endeavors and pray for success to follow him wherever he goes. Pritesh is one of those musicians that have literally grown up following bands around since he was in shorts. His versatility allows him to play several genres of music effortlessly with bands like In Memory Of, Chronic Phobia and several others. Although his back ground in Heavy Metal and Hard Rock is what clinched the deal for him. Overhung and the band’s management are happy to announce him as the newest addition to the band.”

Pritesh Prabhune started playing drums at the age of 21 in 2007 and has toured extensively across India as a drummer, live sound engineer, stage manager and drum technician. He is currently endorsed by Meinl Cymbals and Bhargavas Musik along with performing with other musical groups such as blues act Howard Pereira Trio, pop act Sherise D’Souza Collective, deathcore band Grimmortal, black metal band Stark Denial, groove metal band Sutledge among many more. He also plays for a variery of other artists, mostly independent Indian bands like Daira, Paradigm Shift, Ankur & The Ghalat Family, Anand Bhaskar Collective, Blakc, Bombay Bassment being the most prominent ones, and in the commercial space – Prem Joshua & Band, Gaurav Dagaonkar, Piyush Kapoor Live and subbing / subbed for Kailasa, Mame Khan, Divya Kumar, Indian Ocean, The Bartender, Ash King Live, Point Of View (Dubai) and many more.

 

Live videos of Pritesh Prabhune can be viewed on his YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/user/Priteshda21/videos

Influenced by Poison, AC/DC, Motley Crue, Deep Purple, Led Zeppelin, OVERHUNG‘s sound is all about loud, fun, sex, rum and rock ‘n’ roll. The band released their debut album “Moving Ahead” during February of this year on Test Your Metal Records. The full length was an electrifying 10 tracks capturing the band’s infectious energy to blast from the stereo speakers and give fans that classic glam rock n’ roll feel of the 70’s and 80’s. The band then later followed up the album with a new single entitled “King of Dreams” during the summer. The single was recorded, mixed, and mastered with band members being spread across, 3 continents, 4 countries, 5 different studios and 6 different engineers.

As vocalist Sujit Kumar says “This is stuff dreams are made up of.”

“King of Dreams” can be heard at the following link: https://youtu.be/DmSthjxUOF4

Their debut album “Moving Ahead” is now available for download and full stream on Bandcamp, Spotify, iTunes.

About:
The steel seeds of hard rockin’ music find fertile ground all over the world. All races and religions embrace it. Music should become the new worldwide religion; we’d have moshing instead of wars! Good times!

The love of music is strong in India, and stronger than all in the splendidly named OVERHUNG who hail from Mumbai! The band owe their name to unique vocalist Sujit Kumar who changed Hungover to Overhung…which speaks even more volumes than their music!

OVERHUNG are making the most debauched melodic hard rock since Guns ‘n’ Roses released their classic ‘Appetite For Destruction’. With a successful debut full length ‘Moving Ahead’ under their belts set to be re-released in 2018 via Canadian label Test Your Metal Records, great live shows, and a planned follow up single entitled ‘King of Dreams’, OVERHUNG are ready to offer the world killer sounds coming straight outta India!

Influenced by Poison, AC/DC, Motley Crue, Deep Purple, Led Zeppelin , guitarist Howard Pereira describes their sound as “loud, fun, sex, rum…rock ‘n’ roll! We are about devolution not evolution! We are still doing late 80s and 90s rock!”

Pereira explains the very reason for OVERHUNG’s creation was when the members jammed “the energy was infectious and all of us wanted to write more kick-ass music with together…We hope that people are open to hearing our music in 2017. The band’s music is largely arena rock sounding, so at live gigs people just lose it and have a blast!”

You have to see OVERHUNG play because they have “insane live energy! Quite frankly there is no one like Sujit Kumar when it comes to live performances. He is shameless and you can’t take your eyes off him. His antics include table dancing, interacting with women (and men too sometimes), climbing everything in sight from light poles to bartops! It is engaging for the audiences. Also we deliver tight and fun glam-rockish sets that go down well!”

“A GREAT ALBUM by a band who learned the lesson from the Hard Rock Masters but looking to the future!” – Hard Rock Heavy Metal

“Opening up with the catchy number “Sex Machine”, Overhung’s debut album is a good first effort and should appeal to fans of Poison, Kiss, AC/DC, and Guns N’ Roses.” – Heavy Metal Time Machine

“Ten songs party addicted influenced by the 70’s and 80’s hard rock, the album itself is a thrilling work with glam rock lines.” – Rockers and Other Animals Mag

“They embody the sex, drugs and rock n roll attitude and spirit with songs like “Sex Machine”, “Must Drink” and “Casual Bitch”. The whole album rock’s from start to finish. These guys know what rock n roll is all about and without a doubt are on a mission to bring it back to the world. Get this album you won’t be disappointed. With bands like Overhung rock n roll will truly never die!!!” – The Dirty Room

Test Your Metal Records: India’s OVERHUNG Making Canadian Debut @ Indie Week (Toronto, ON)

 

India’s rock ‘n roll lovers OVERHUNG will be making their Canadian debut at this year’s Indie Week in Toronto, ON. The band is slated to perform two shows, Thursday, Nov 8th at Cherry Cola’s and Friday, Nov 9th at Cavern Bar. In addition to their performances at Indie Week, the band will be performing select dates across Canada (dates to be announced).

Vocalist Sujit Kumar shares his excitement:

“In today’s age of instant gratification, Overhung is one of the best examples of long term dedication and perseverance. With our roots from ORLEM, a small little part of suburban Mumbai, this band is what dreams are made of. The band stuck together, wrote, recorded, released and toured, despite band members spread out across the world and a million other odds. Today, the band is the first and only band out of India playing at the prestigious Indie Week in Canada, a festival in its 16th year that features over 300 bands globally.”

More details on Overhung and Indie Week can be found at this link: http://canada.indieweek.com/overhung/

Out Now! Test Your Metal Records Release Mumbai Rock n’ Rollers OVERHUNG “Moving Ahead”


Test Your Metal Records is proud to announce the North American re-release of Mumbai rock ‘n rollers OVERHUNG’s debut album “Moving Ahead”, out now as of February 16, 2018. Influenced by Poison, AC/DC, Motley Crue, Deep Purple, Led Zeppelin , OVERHUNG‘s sound is all about loud, fun, sex, rum and rock ‘n’ roll. The full length is an electrifying 10 tracks capturing the band’s infectious energy that’s ready to blast from the stereo speakers and give fans that classic glam rock n’ roll feel of the 70’s and 80’s.  In their native country of India, the Mumbai rock band has been garnering praise along with their straight to the point lyrics about sex and more sex that they feel is still a topic too taboo to be spoken of.

The band comments:

“‘Moving Ahead’ is a culmination of several things. Our vocalist Sujit had recently moved to the US so we would be recording and mixing without him. We had several issues with our mixing engineer, deaths in the family, injuries etc. Despite all the hindrances, once we heard the finished product, we were sure that we had the right album title for our debut. When we first released ‘Moving Ahead’ in India, there were a lot of folks whom raised their eyebrows with our song titles like ‘Sex Machine’ and ‘Casual Bitch’ so we look forward to its North American reception.”

“Moving Ahead” is now available for download and full stream at the following link on Bandcamp: https://overhungofficial.bandcamp.com

OVERHUNG‘s first single “Sex Machine” is streaming at the following link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uqRB3D9kRAY

Test Your Metal Records Signs Mumbai Rock n’ Rollers OVERHUNG

 

Test Your Metal Records is proud to announce their latest signing of Mumbai rock ‘n rollers OVERHUNG for the re-release of their 2016 album “Moving Ahead”. The full length is an electrifying 10 tracks ready to blast from the stereo speakers and give fans that classic glam rock n’ roll feel of the 70’s and 80’s.  In their native country of India, the Mumbai rock band has been garnering praise along with their straight to the point lyrics about sex and more sex that they feel is still a topic too taboo to be spoken of.

Indian press has said:

“Overhung make no bones that their songs are about sex.” – The Times of India

“Mumbai-based Glam rock band Overhung want to talk about sex. They say that is the only topic no one wants to talk about.” – The Hindu

“Overhung and lovin’ it! They are more than just a band, they’re a bunch of ‘brothers’ who make music and ‘shake the room’, with their sound and antics.” – The Goan 

“Moving Ahead” will be distributed in North America in 2018 (date to be determined) by Test Your Metal Records along with a new single to be released by the band entitled “King Of Dreams” at a later date.

TYM label A&R Mujeeb Basha comments:

“The signing of OVERHUNG may raise eyebrows, as it should. The band has already built a reputation in their home country rocking the foundations of ‘Hard Rock Cafes’ all over INDIA peddling their signature “Sex, Rum, and Rock&Roll!” Coming soon to North America through a partnership with TYMR, what you can expect is that OVERHUNG will rock your socks off! The band has bold and audacious ideas and the cross-cultural partnership with Test Your Metal Records means 24/7 debauchery.”

OVERHUNG vocalist Sujit Kumar adds:

“We, at Overhung are really excited with the association with Test Your Metal Records. For a band that functions from different parts of the globe, Overhung has continued to write, record, release and tour and every year. Just as the album title “Moving Ahead” suggests, we’ve constantly moved ahead in some way or the other. Looking forward to taking the debauchery to North American shores.”

Track Listing:

1. Sex Machine (3:42)
2. Insane (6:38)
3. Waiting (5:10)
4. I Don’t Believe Her (6:08)
5. Through The Slime (5:01)

(Bio written by Steve Earles)

About:
The steel seeds of hard rockin’ music find fertile ground all over the world. All races and religions embrace it. Music should become the new worldwide religion; we’d have moshing instead of wars! Good times!

The love of music is strong in India, and stronger than all in the splendidly named OVERHUNG who hail from Mumbai! The band owe their name to unique vocalist Sujit Kumar who changed Hungover to Overhung…which speaks even more volumes than their music!

OVERHUNG are making the most debauched melodic hard rock since Guns ‘n’ Roses released their classic ‘Appetite For Destruction’. With a successful debut full length ‘Moving Ahead’ under their belts set to be re-released in 2018 via Canadian label Test Your Metal Records, great live shows, and a planned follow up single entitled ‘King of Dreams’, OVERHUNG are ready to offer the world killer sounds coming straight outta India!

Influenced by Poison, AC/DC, Motley Crue, Deep Purple, Led Zeppelin , guitarist Howard Pereira describes their sound as “loud, fun, sex, rum…rock ‘n’ roll! We are about devolution not evolution! We are still doing late 80s and 90s rock!”

Pereira explains the very reason for OVERHUNG’s creation was when the members jammed “the energy was infectious and all of us wanted to write more kick-ass music with together…We hope that people are open to hearing our music in 2017. The band’s music is largely arena rock sounding, so at live gigs people just lose it and have a blast!”

You have to see OVERHUNG play because they have “insane live energy! Quite frankly there is no one like Sujit Kumar when it comes to live performances. He is shameless and you can’t take your eyes off him. His antics include table dancing, interacting with women (and men too sometimes), climbing everything in sight from light poles to bartops! It is engaging for the audiences. Also we deliver tight and fun glam-rockish sets that go down well!”

NEWS RELEASE

Montreal, QC – September 9, 2017

 

For fans of Van Halen, Aerosmith, Led Zeppelin, Sammy Hagar

AUDIOREHAB New Single “Keep Me Coming” From Forthcoming Debut Album “Old School Medicine”

The Cambridge English Dictionary defines ‘Audio’ as ‘pertaining to the sense or organs of hearing’ and ‘Rehab’ as ‘to restore to a former capacity or position’. Well, now we have the band AUDIOREHAB and their goal is to take all that was great about the music of the past and rehabilitate it for the 21st century. It’s all about the ears, no trouble, and AUDIOREHAB are about to launch an aural, multi-spectrum invasion of their audience’s ears!

Planning to release their debut album “Old School Medicine” later this year, AUDIOREHAB are revealing to fans the first taste of what’s to come with their first single “Keep Me Coming” now streaming at the following link: https://soundcloud.com/audiorehab-band/keep-me-coming and available on CD Baby here.

For the debut nine track album, AUDIOREHAB collaborated with award winning producer/engineer/mixer Glen Robinson who has worked with names such as The Ramones, AC/DC, GWAR, Annihilator and Voivod. Featuring tracks like ‘Working For The Man’, ‘See You In Hell’, ‘Soul Like Mine’ and ‘007’, AUDIOREHAB are looking forward to sharing it with their hometown fans from Ottawa and beyond.

“Our album is full of feelings of happiness, regret and hard times, outrage and redemption, with an old-school vibe. The album as a whole is versatile rock with mind-blowing dynamics! The world will never be the same again, our advice? Hear it, don’t fear it! Feel it, don’t repeal it! We feel fans will receive this album like an old friend, and make them feel like they are bumping into their first love again…It’s fun, with a lot of emotion, and full of dynamics. With deep, dark sexy undertones…The lyrics on the album come from our life experiences and our daily surroundings that inspire us, and give us the creative drive to create great music!” says bassist Dan Allan.

“Old School Medicine” album release date, track listing and artwork to be revealed at a later date.
