“The title track opens the album and sets the mood with JST’s signature husky, soulful vocals embellished with some powerful guitar lines.” – Guitarist Magazine

The album “Nobody’s Fool” will release digitally worldwide on Joe Bonamassa’s KTBA Records on Friday, October 28th. TheCD edition of the album will be released in the UK on November 11th, followed by the release of the vinyl edition released worldwide on December 16th. All formats of the album are available to pre-order from https://bit.ly/ordernobodysfool. 

Joanne as born and raised in the UK and was discovered at the age of 16 by music icon Dave Stewart of the Eurythmics. Right from the get-go, Joanne’s incredible guitar playing, and distinctive sultry vocals set her apart from the rest of the crowd.

“Nobody’s Fool” is her most personal album to date. Joanne’s writing lays bare love, loss, and the desire to be free of the past through the vessel of catchy hooks and infectious guitar riffs.

Her vocal style, writing prowess and guitar skills take the listener on a journey into the wasteland of love and back into the light of hope and redemption. “Nobody’s Fool” takes Joanne into new territory that can be described as retro pop with a modern flare, yet still encompasses the emotion of her blues roots.

Joanne wrote all the songs on the album except “Missionary Man,” which is written by Annie Lennox and Dave Stewart of the Eurythmics.

Joanne co-wrote “New Love” with Josh Smith, Calvin Turner, and Dylan Altman, “Then There’s You” with James House, “Fade Away” with Sharon Corbitt, and “The Leaving Kind” co-written with Joe Bonamassa, Leslie Satcher, and Beth Nielsen-Chapman (Willie Nelson, Sheryl Crow, Bonnie Raitt).

“Nobody’s Fool just might be her best album yet.” – Blues Matters

“This is top-shelf blues on all levels that also packs huge crossover potential. Be the first one on your block to hear it!” – Rock and Blues Muse


“Joanne Shaw Taylor continues her recent run of killer albums with a stunning new studio collection that is guaranteed to further widen her audience beyond the confines of blues rock.” – 
Blues in Britain

“With masses of crossover appeal, Nobody’s Fool has the potential to be huge. 13 years after her debut album she might well find herself the next overnight sensation.” – 
Record Collector

EARTHRISE’s Riveting Space Tragedy “Until We Rest Beneath the Winter Way” Out Now

Posted by tarjavirmakari on October 16, 2022
Posted in: Int. News, News. Tagged: EARTHRISE. Leave a comment

Over the last few months, critically acclaimed post-metal band EARTHRISE has introduced many to the tragic tale of Laika, the first animal sent into Earth’s orbit, with their captivating singles, “Our Work in the Stars Cannot Wait,” “From Below” and “The New Man.” Today, Laika’s full legacy unfolds with the release of the band’s long-awaited sophomore album, “Until We Rest Beneath the Winter Way.” 

Purchase “Until We Rest Beneath the Winter Way“: http://earthrisemn.bandcamp.com/
Stream “Until We Rest Beneath the Winter Way“: 
Apple Music – https://apple.co/3fXi12y
Spotify – https://spoti.fi/3EHY3U3
Youtube – https://youtu.be/zBkys7DD4tA

“Until We Rest Beneath the Winter Way“ frames vignettes into the life and times of Laika. Each track on ‘UWRBTWW’ represents a slice in history, as she endured it. The album culminates with the launch of Sputnik II, the second major event in humanity’s reach to the heavens, symbolized by a lifeless canine body orbiting the Earth for months on end — a somber meditation on humanity’s innumerable self-inflicted tragedies, as if stuck in orbit, forever. 

“‘Until We Rest Beneath the Winter Way’ has been a long time in the making, spanning for each of us many major life events – some personal and some with global impact. The past decade of experiences has further cemented the themes we explore on the album in our hearts and minds. We’re incredibly thrilled to finally share this music and story with everyone and hope others can also find a connection to it.” – EARTHRISE

“Until We Rest Beneath the Winter Way” Tracklisting:
The New Man
From Below
Hypervigilant
Generation Loss
Our Work in the Stars Cannot Wait
Prisoner’s Cinema
Engineers of the Human Soul
Void Hymn
Tears of Burning Light

About EARTHRISE:
Described by MetalSucks as “heavy-as-elephant-balls post-NeurIsis-y metal with dreamy, atmospheric guitars and sickly, downtuned doom riffs,” Earthrise was founded in 2010 by bassist Andy Rutledge, drummer Jimmy Neumann and guitarist Mike Britson (Former Worlds) who released their acclaimed debut, “Eras Lost,” in 2012. With the recent additions of Jim Schloemer on synth and Sam Halvorson on vocals, the band has emerged from a 10 year hiatus to release their cosmic followup “Until We Rest Beneath the Winter Way” – a 71-minute proggy, crushingly heavy, space rock meets post metal behemoth.

CULTØ Premiere ‘The Ashes Of Annihilation’ Single, Debut Album “Of the Sun” Out October 27th

Posted by tarjavirmakari on October 16, 2022
Posted in: Int. News, News. Tagged: CULTØ. Leave a comment

Italian melodic death metallers CULTØ have signed to Time To Kill Records for the release of their debut album “Of the Sun”. The album is out October 27th on CD, LP, and digital formats.

Today the band shares the second single from the record with “The Ashes of Annihilation”. Stream it HERE.

The first single “Flare” is still available HERE.

CULTØ was born from an idea of ​ mastermind Dave, who, in a very short time span, managed to put together a line-up made up of well-known musicians from the Lombardy underground scene (Ghostheart Nebula, Vide, Perfidious, etc.) and record an album of nine songs.

The style of “Of The Sun” comes straight from the Gothenburg sound of the 90s (In Flames, Dark Tranquility, etc.) opening on to more aggressive musical tones. The album is not only a personal interpretation of this music style, but revolves around a message on the awakening of generative consciousness and on the power of artistic expression.

The concept of the lyrics is focused on the awareness of the artist and his creative abilities, through the metaphor of a star that, following a flare, becomes a creator and destroyer god in search of himself and his kind.

CULTØ combine a number of genres and influences, ranging from In Flames to Bloodbath and Septicflesh, filtered through a prism of metallic extremity. The result is fierce melodic death metal, mixing the best of old and new school into their own sound.

Tracklist:

  1. Flare
  2. Experiment 1
  3. Excrete
  4. Frost
  5. The Desert Of Shadows
  6. Void
  7. The Ashes Of Annihilation
  8. Darkness Leads To Light
  9. Fire From Inside

Line-up:
Dave – Vocals
Panta – Drums
Ema – Guitars
BT – Bass
