WILLE & THE BANDITS’ “Solid Ground” Anthem Coincides with Global Day of Action for Climate Justice

Solid Ground, a track from taken from WILLE & THE BANDITS’ forthcoming album When the World Stood Still, reflects the concern and hypocrisy that is felt when continuing with life as we know it, recognising that we are not acting to protect the planet for our children.

The single is currently streaming on Spotify at https://spoti.fi/3EXTB00

Watch the climate conscious official music video below.

Solid Ground was released on November 10th. The new album When The World Stood Still will be released by Fat Toad Records on January 28, 2022 via www.willeandthebandits.com

As many of the world leaders meet to discuss climate change this powerful and emotive song, accompanied by an equally compelling video, aims to get the message across with music. Following in the footsteps of many great songs of the past, current issues should be at the forefront of music culture, driving change, not hiding in the shadows. Music is the voice of the people, let it be heard.

Says Wille Edwards, lead singer and guitarist of Wille & The Bandits, “Every time I look at my children and think of their future, I worry for them; that the world will be a very different place, one with more pain and suffering and I want to do what I can to help. Music is my way of trying to help the cause.”

The song features Wille’s dynamic voice stating that he wants his children “walking on solid ground” and for any parent bringing children into this world there is always the anxiety of what world we are leaving for our children, even more so now with the “code red” warning given to humanity.

The song has shades of peak John Martyn about it and features a guitar solo which weeps and howls as if Peter Green has been transported back to planet earth. The video which accompanies the single features some of the tens of millions of people that took part in the “Global Day of Action for Climate Justice” across the world as well as many children who’s homemade made signs to ask leaders to act now. This movement needs a voice and music needs to be that voice.

Finnish KORPSESOTURI to Release New Album in 2022

Raising from the gloomy darkness KORPSESOTURI will release their third album in 2022 via Xtreme Music. It will be heavier and more depressing than anything since the very beginning of the band!

With the two previous albums Malus Corpus (Rotted Life records 2018) and Korpskrist (Xtreme Music 2020) Korpsesoturi has been making its own rotten path with finnish lyrics, pushing the listeners against the wall with the aggressions and pushing their guts into their throat and tearing their souls in small pieces! No excuses, no polishing – just pure raw old school death metal as it should be done! Live torment is one of the main part of Korpsesoturi in the past and will be also in the future. Primitive energy and killer strike straight into audience vains!

Czech DYMYTRY Share Single ‘Chernobyl 2.0’

After well over one thousand concerts in their home country, five successful studio albums to date and a platinum award for their latest release Revolt, Czech modern metal band DYMYTRY – who just recently signed a worldwide deal with AFM Records – has opted for a step that is unusual in two respects: Revolt, originally recorded exclusively in Czech, will be the first Dymytry album to also be released in an English language version, as well as introducing a new, additional singer!

“Four years ago we came up with the idea of expanding our musical operating radius beyond the Czech Republic. We probably wanted to get out of our comfort zone and try something new and different. After translating a few of our tracks into English, we started to look at the option of playing some shows abroad,” bassist Artur “R2R” Mikhaylov explains. After a joint single with German act Hämatom in September 2018, both bands went on tour together in October 2018; these were Dymytry‘s first shows outside their home country. Mikhaylov: “The tour proved to us that our music also works for an international audience, and in English.” So the band decided to take this remarkable step, and the band’s first international output, Revolt, will be released on January 14, 2022 through AFM Records. “We want to show to the world that there is great music in the Czech Republic, too,” Mikhaylov explains. “We feel that our first English album is a very strong record, we really put everything into it.“

But give ear, as today the band has premiered a first song, whose original Czech version has already been a huge success! Watch the brand new video clip for Dymytry‘s 2.0 Version of ‘Chernobyl’ right here:

The brand new English version of the much acclaimed Revolt album will be the first Dymytry album featuring the new and additional singer Alen „A.L.“ Ljubic. Dymytry will continue to work with vocalist Protheus in the Czech Republic and with Alen on the international market, especially since the band think highly of both frontmen. Says Mikhaylov: “We’re really happy with how Alen has recorded the vocals on the ‘Revolt’ album. He has a fantastic and versatile voice, a broad range and really good energy, a combination which has infused our material with a new dimension and lots of power. Also he’s very passionate about the band, so we’re grateful to have him on board. Protheus is also an awesome front man with a charismatic voice, plus he’s got a huge talent for writing lyrics with a lot of depth and hidden meaning. In addition, he’s a dab hand at leading the audience.”

So there’s every sign of a storm brewing when Dymytry, featuring its three main songwriters Mikhaylov, Jiri “Dymo” Urban and Jan “Gorgy” Görgel (both guitar) as well as with exciting guest appearances by Joakim Lindbäck Eriksson of Brothers Of Metal and ex- Rage guitarist Victor Smolski, will present its successful Revolt album to an international audience for the first time on January 14, 2022 via powerhouse AFM. The twelve album tracks all practically burst with a high-voltage energy, strong melodies and powerful rhythms driven by mercilessly modern metal!

Revolt is now available to pre-order at THIS LOCATION!

Album track listing:
01 – Revolt
02 – Stronger
03 – 300 (Feat. Joakim Lindbäck Eriksson – Brothers Of Metal)
04 – Never Gonna Die
05 – Rise And Shine
06 – Awaking The Monster
07 – Until The World Knows Why
08 – Touchdown
09 – Tick Tock
10 – Hope
11 – Somebody’s Watching Me (Feat. Victor Smolski / ex-Rage, Almanac)
12 – Chernobyl 2.0

Windsor’s Alt Pop/Rock artist JARED ANTHONY released his new single “Over My Head” via UnitedMasters today along with a premiere of his official music video on Alternative Press.

“Over My Head” features Evan Stanley (son of Paul Stanley) on lead guitar, Matt Noveskey (Blue October) on bass and Will Knaak (Blue October) is on rhythm guitar.

Jared Anthony is an edgy, melodic rapper/singer/songwriter/producer from Ontario, Canada. His musical style blends many influences of pop, rock, and alternative, with a heavy melodic hip hop vibe, but with an eclectic and creative new kind of sound that makes Jared Anthony stand out.

“This blending of genres and hybrid sound only seems to be increasing in popularity with music fans and Jared Anthony is at the forefront of this current hybrid nature in popular music,” says manager John Gomez.

Jared Anthony’s new single “Over My Head” features guest musicians from platinum-selling alternative rock band Blue October and Evan Stanley, son of KISS legend Paul Stanley. Additionally, Jared Anthony’s song “Mayday” was a featured track last year in the best-selling basketball series video game, NBA 2k. His music has garnered over 14 million streams on Spotify, nearly 200k monthly listeners, and his fan base continues to grow exponentially.

“Over My Head” marks the first official release via a new partnership with music industry executive Steve Stoute’s music platform, UnitedMasters. Stoute, who is the founder and CEO of UnitedMasters and Translation, recently closed a $50M Series C at a $550M valuation to further support and empower the artists they work with to find commercial success in the creator economy. UnitedMasters, meanwhile, has helped launch the careers of artists like platinum-selling rapper NLE Choppa, plus Lil Tecca, Tobe Nwigwe, Lil XXEL and others.

“I’m pumped about this partnership and new musical vibe that showcases a more alternative edgy sound than my previous releases,” says Jared Anthony.

“This track serves as the first taste of what’s to come and now that the pandemic is almost behind us, I can’t wait to finally start playing live shows soon,” adds Jared Anthony.

“UnitedMasters has an amazing team of like-minded creatives who sincerely want to see their artists succeed in the music industry and grow into global acts,” said Gomez. “Jared’s music is lit and he’s setting the bar in a unique niche. His songs have clearly connected with fans, the production is super clean, and his melodies carry emotion that breaks the rap mold.”

Along with veteran artist manager John Gomez, Jared Anthony is co-managed by famed MTV VJ personality Matt Pinfield and represented by United Talent Agency. UTA is one of the world’s leading global talent, sports, and entertainment companies. New tour dates are slated to commence for Jared Anthony early 2022. Dates will be announced soon.

MARTIN RUBASHOV Releases New Single And Music Video ‘Pillars’ Feat. Sofia Westlin

With the characteristic combination of folk tones, acoustic guitars and a singing voice that is both rough and fragile at the same time, MARTIN RUBASHOV paints cinematic sceneries for the listener of being a seeking wanderer in the deep forest of the Swedish forests of Hälsingland. In the distance, the sun falls through the pines that create a warm contrast against the dark trees. The ground is covered with cold muddy moss and the dew lies like unshaded smoke over lingonberry and uprooted trees. You hear the sound of something moving in the dark. Eyes are watching you vigilantly from the crowns of the trees and you can sense something or someone insidious through the light morning fog. The environment is timeless, as a world of your own imagination in a dull future dystopia, with a shimmering streak of hope twined as a golden thread in the dark web.

Big trees, massive mountains and deep waters are some of the factors that frequently lure Martin Rubashov into the forest. The tangible awareness of being a small part of something bigger helps him to stay close to the feeling of what is truly and authentic. In 2018, Martin Rubashov released his latest album ‘The Nature Script’. In 2020, Martin Rubashov returned with the single release ‘Lights of July’ featuring Jonas Renkse (Katatonia), and was followed up by the second single ‘Goblin’ (sep 24th 2021). Next up is the third and last single ‘Pillars’ before the album release in 2022.

In November 12th, Rubashov release ‘Pillars‘, the third single of the upcoming album ‘Members of the Green Phlox‘. Martin‘s paths leads him through the forest where he finds finer places for the music to express itself in the right way, this time with the beautiful single ‘Pillars‘ featuring Sofia Westlin, who’s living in Martins hometown in Hälsingland and is well-known with the mesmerizing nature there where Martin finds his inspiration. Martin Rubashov about the single:
“Pillars are trees. The magical surroundings and those secret paths. About hidden treasures and those old places where people has lived their dreams. About the fear of losing nature to the bad ones. Trees.. they even stand tall when they are dying. Nurture nature and heal yourself.” // Martin Rubashov

Stream/Download ‘Pillars’ on optional platform: https://ingrv.es/pillars-znw-k

The upcoming album ‘Members of the Green Phlox‘ will be acoustic and dream-like with the sounds of nature weaved into the soundscape. Martin describes the music as “The feeling of landing on a cold but inspiring and encouraging world, inside a warm pine forest.” He continues “I’ll use my twelve stringed guitar a lot more and I have written the majority of the material, I still haven’t left the forest and I’ll stay here when it comes to my music. I want to widen my view more. Wander deeper into the forest. Build sounds to connect the songs and record more of nature to tie into the lyrics that take place here.” 

More about Martin Rubashov
Martin Rubashov has previously released three albums and several EP’s via Despotz Records and he continues proven himself of being a poet and great musician. With critically acclaimed songs such as Hideout, Muddy Mountain King and Black Elk (featuring Anders Fridén, In Flames), Martin shows his gift of being able to invite the listeners into his love for nature and the seductive forces of the forests, both good and evil.
