That they are still roaring and soaring should be no surprise. That’s just how they are built. TESLA may have been born in the mid-80s, but their bluesy, soulful sound is strongly embedded in the roots of organic, authentic, 1970s rock and roll. The same roots that produced bands like Bad Company, Grand Funk Railroad, AC/DC, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Led Zeppelin and Aerosmith.

The ground started shaking in Sacramento, CA, in 1984; gold country that would soon be producing some platinum. They started out as City Kidd, until a suggested name change to TESLA, honoring the eccentric inventor Nikola Tesla who pioneered all things electrical. Their 1986 platinum debut album, Mechanical Resonance, included Top 40 hits “Modern Day Cowboy” and “Little Suzi.” 1989’s double-platinum The Great Radio Controversy included hits “Heaven’s Trail (No Way Out)” and “Love Song”. Suddenly, TESLA, who had been touring with bands such as Def Leppard and David Lee Roth, earned headlining status. In 1990, TESLA helped reshape the face of modern rock music by stripping down to the Five Man Acoustical Jam, an informal collection of their biggest hits peppered with rock and roll classics by the Beatles, Stones, and others. This album produced their biggest hit single to date, a cover of Five Man Electrical Band’s “Signs.” Other 90s albums from TESLA include platinum selling Psychotic Supper and Bust a Nut. The band continues to record and release material including 9 new albums since 2000.

TESLA’s legacy is alive and well as they continue to record and sellout venues all over the world. As comfortable, rugged, and dependable as your favorite pair of boots, they endure. TESLA is a celebration of the greatest spirits of rock and roll.

Vocals: Jeff Keith
Guitar: Frank Hannon

THUS SPOKE ZARATHUSTRA Drop First Single ‘I Can’t Save You’ from Upcoming Album

Prosthetic Records is beyond stoked to announce the new album from Thus Spoke Zarathustra! ‘I’m Done With Self Care, It’s Time For Others’ Harm‘ is set to be a landmark record for the new wave of deathcore happening around the globe right now. Set for release on May 23rd via Prosthetic Records. 

Intended as an examination on the duality of the self and human existence, I’m Done With Self-Care, It’s Time For Others Harm is a conceptual horror-inspired excavation of the bipolarity of self-betterment and healing with mankind’s more malevolent inclinations towards turmoil, anxiety and vengeance.

Alongside this exciting news comes the first single ‘I Can’t Save You‘ featuring Matt McDougall from Boundaries. Out now and streaming everywhere! 

Listen to ‘I Can’t Save You’ on Spotify, Apple Music, DEEZER, Amazon.

Formed as the brainchild of primary songwriter Andy Reynold, THUS SPOKE ZARATHUSTRA draw their influence from the Myspace-era deathcore scene, with the era’s key players legacies felt throughout the album. From opener GGO’s introductory ominous rise and fall of harsh noise giving way to triple threat guitar work that intertwines melodeath leadwork with rhythmic pummel, to I Never Believed In Magic Til My Dog Turned Into A Snake’s tale of malicious revenge set to breakneck blastbeats and belligerently heavy breakdowns, THUS SPOKE ZARATHUSTRA pay reverence to all that came before them whilst leaving their own confident and contemporary take on the genre.

Throughout I’m Done With Self-Care, It’s Time For Others Harm’s runtime the inclusion of three guitars adds a ferociously dynamic and punishing quality to their compositions, layering complexities with savage bludgeon. Lyrically complimenting the musicality on show, THUS SPOKE ZARATHUSTRA’s concept is presented as a fragmented world that offers no easy answers. With the album cover adorning main character, Henry Ford, serving as the sadistic antagonist slipping further into a distorted reality of satanism, existential dread, psychological decline and jealousy.

Recording production for I’m Done With Self-Care, It’s Time For Others Harm was handled exclusively by the band before being placed in the trusty hands of Mychal Soto (Peeling Flesh) for mixing and mastering duties. Visually complimenting I’m Done With Self Care, It’s Time For Others Harm’s horror-movie inspirations and aesthetic, THUS SPOKE ZARATHUSTRA recruited Morta Sustain for the album sleeve.

Track listing:

  1. GGO
  2. I Can’t Save You
  3. Gage Lanza 2: Return Of The Red Hammer
  4. I Never Believed In Magic Til My Dog Turned Into A Snake
  5. The Final Blow Will Bring Blood
  6. Santosha
  7. All I Feel Is Cold
  8. The Difference Between You And Me Is I Never Got Caught
  9. Mithrandir
  10. Bereft Of Light
