TOOL

The revolutionary and enigmatic Tool will be hitting the stage this summer! Their efforts to combine musical experimentation, visual arts, and a message of personal evolution, have molded them into a super power of the alternative rock scene. Since the bands inception in 1990, Tool has enveloped fans with visually stunning and unorthodox stage performances and haven’t let up yet. They announced they have begun the writing process for a new album, keeping any further details under cloak and dagger. You can still join them on the trip down the rabbit hole on their tour running through mid July!

The Rabies

The Rabies are in the studio! Hailing from the underbelly of Buffalo N.Y., The Rabies emerged in 2003 and acquired a faithful following, all claiming to have been “infected” by the new buzz. With their concoction of punk, new wave, goth, and in-your-face rock-n-roll, The Rabies aren’t here for a campfire sing along…they are here to wake the dead! Check out their contagious second album, Night Terror, to tide you over until they release their new disease!

OUR LAST NIGHT

New Hampshire’s rising melodic-metal quintet, Our Last Night, is storming the scene with their thunderous new album! Their sophomore studio release, “We Will All Evolve”, is out now on Epitaph Records. The album lives up to its name with a noticeable refinement of their sound. Breakneck-metal driven guitars and heavy hitting bass will have you ripping through thirty-seven plus minutes of melodic mayhem. Be sure to check out the albums first track, “Elephants”, available now on their MySpace!

Story of the Year

After a decade of world-wide touring, charting singles, and three fan-cherished albums, St. Louis’ hardest rocking band, Story of the Year, have returned! They’ve recently released their new album, The Constant, via Epitaph Records. Fan’s can listen to the hot new single, “I’m Alive”, on the band’s MySpace page now!
