Riley’s L.A. Guns have released their latest single ‘Rewind‘ via Golden Robot Records, featuring Steve Riley, Kelly Nickels, Scott Griffin and Kurt Frohlich. This is the second track from the band leading up to their highly anticipated new album The Dark Horse.

‘Rewind‘ tackles the complex relationship lulls surrounding infidelity. 
“This track is about how something so sweet can turn so sour,” says bassist Kelly Nickels. 

It’s a tale as old as time; finding someone really special and becoming involved, then as time passes you learn they are cheating on you and stringing you along with lies. The feeling of frustration sinks in as you realise you have to end it and wish you could go back and “rewind” and make different decisions.
 
“As expected, another blistering assault by Riley’s L.A. Guns. I cannot wait for the world to hear their second album – it will definitely set them apart from all others,” says Golden Robot Global Entertainment Founder and CEO Mark Alexander-Erber.

YOUNG MEDICINE Release New Single ‘Hold On To Anything’

Pushing further into the metal genre than they have in the past “Hold On To Anything” is a study of a classic anime trope of revenge. It comes complete with the emotional peaks and valleys with introspective verse and fierce chorus sections that YOUNG MEDICINE has come to be known for. The track features heavy metalcore guitar riffs balanced with throwback synth melodies, vigorous drumming, and topped off with with Evan Kappelman on Saxophone for a unique finish that only Young Medicine can deliver. The group’s unmistakable style has never sounded better as they continue to lay the explosive groundwork for their upcoming album. Stay tuned.

“‘Hold on to Anything‘ is built around that classic anime trope of finally getting your revenge after having been wronged, but having to become the villain to do so,” explains Young Medicine. “Musically we went further into the metal background instrumentation than we have on some other songs, but found a good excuse to bring back our long time collaborator, Evan, to lay down some sax to spice up the finale of the track.”

Rising synthwave rockers Young Medicine pull the best from diverse genres to build a carefully constructed music identity that defies simple categorization. Thumping double-bass beats and crunchy guitar riffs hammer out hard-hitting rhythms while chorus lines partner with sparkling retro synth tones for a stunning mix of audio ideas. If synthwave and metal got together and started a boy band, the result might sound something like Young Medicine, who have put themselves on the map as pioneers for a new era by bringing rockstar swagger to the retrowave movement.

The band recently had their first nomination and brought home the prize for ‘Best Rock Video’ at the Native American Music Awards late last year.

“Sitting in the audience, listening to the other nominees in the category get called out – the thought was ‘It’s great to be here, but there’s no way we’re gonna win!‘” says frontman Cj Loane. 
Boy, were they wrong!

The Bloodshots are the next big thing in Canadian rock music!
