DEVIL YOU KNOW release official live video for 'Consume The Damned'
DEVIL YOU KNOW have posted an official live video for the track 'Consume the Damned' online. The track is taken from the band's latest album They Bleed Red and was filmed during their tour with Papa Roach and Five Finger Death Punch last year.
The band were recently added to the line up for this years Download Festival on June 12th. Speaking about their appearance, guitarist Francesco Artusato commented: “DEVIL YOU KNOW are beyond excited to be kicking off our European summer tour with a performance at the legendary Download Festival. This is the very first time we have had the honour to perform there and we are coming with an arsenal of many new songs from our latest album, They Bleed Red, along with a few classics. It’s going to be intense, hot and sweaty so we hope to see you all there and want to meet each and every one of you. Lets party."
Howard Jones (vocals), Francesco Artusato (guitars), John Sankey (drums) and Ryan Wombacher (bass/backing vocals) deliver a dense monstrosity of technical prowess and angst-ridden passion. A deep interpersonal understanding and an evolving camaraderie set the stage for the unique confidence behind They Bleed Red, the band’s ferocious follow-up which extinguishes any so-called 'sophomore slump' without mercy. It’s the sound of primal bloodlust. Produced by Josh Wilbur (Avenged Sevenfold, Lamb Of God, Killer Be Killed), They Bleed Red is a breakneck paced trip through DEVIL YOU KNOW’s broken psyche, struggles with anxiety, and ultimate triumph against adversity, all laid upon a foundation of high-level artistic achievement and vitriolic full throttle heavy metal fury.

1. Consume The Damned 2. The Way We Die 3. Your Last Breath 4. Stay of Execution 5. Break The Ties 6. Shattered Silence 7. Let The Pain Take Hold 8. Master of None 9. Searching For The Sun 10. How The End Shall Be 11. Broken By The Cold

WATCH IT NOW ON SUBSTREAM MAGAZINE
NEW EP THERE WILL BE TIME AVAILABLE 4/8
Indie rock quartet Me Like Bees has released an imaginative new music video for their single "Tundraland", off the upcoming EP There Will Be Time. The video follows a mischievous young pup (played by the band's vocalist Luke Scheafer) and his day on the town which results in some potentially serious consequences.
"We enjoy humiliating Luke, so we came up with the idea of putting him in a dog costume," says guitarist Pete Burton (who also plays the story's villainous dog catcher). "It was a pretty fun shoot! I pulled my hamstring though...it took like two weeks to heal. It was a bad pull!"
Me Like Bees worked with award-winning producer John Feldmann (5 Seconds of Summer, The Used, Panic! At The Disco) on There Will Be Time and will release the record on April 8th.
About Me Like Bees:
Me Like Bees is an American Indie Rock band hailing from the heart of Joplin, Missouri. Formed in 2009 the band has traveled thousands of miles and played hundreds of shows across the nation. By 2013, they released their first full-length record “The Ides” (LoveWay Records) produced by Jeff Smith (Never Shout Never, Trust Company, Carter Hulsey). The album received rave reviews by many internet media outlets. After competing against over 20,000 acts, the band won the 2014 Ernie Ball Battle of the Bands, earning them a shot to work with platinum producer John Feldmann (5 Seconds of Summer, Panic! at the Disco and of course Goldfinger). The subsequent EP that was recorded entitled There Will Be Time will be released independently on April 8th.
LORDS OF THE TRIDENT release Beyonce cover video "Djiva"
Madison, Wisconsin metallic pillagers LORDS OF THE TRIDENT have released their new Beyonce cover video for the song "Djiva", which was recorded for their latest covers EP titled "Re:Quests" released in December 2015.
Lords of the Trident vocalist Fang VonWrathenstein has checked in with the following comment:
"During the Kickstarter campaign for our last album, Frostburn, we offered the fans a pledge level that was "make Lords of the Trident play any song you want!" We received four pledges, and by far the most difficult pledge was a request to cover Beyoncé's Diva. Since we are a band that loves a challenge, we decided to not only cover the music, but also cover the music video as well! This is an (almost) shot-for-shot remake of the original Beyoncé music video. We hope you enjoy, or at the very least, are intensely weirded-out from the lengths we will go to for our fans. Oh, and why "Djiva", you ask? Because it's a djent cover of diva. Dj+iva!"

POP EVIL's smash hit "Footsteps" was just nominated for an iHeartRadio Award in the Rock Song of the Year category. The third annual iHeartRadio Music Awards is set to air Sunday April 3, 2016 via Turner Entertainment’s TBS, TNT and truTV networks.
The band also won an award for peer voted "Best Independent Artist" at this year's Radio Contraband Awards. The award is a big accomplishment for a band who are vocal and proud to be on an indie label. POP EVIL recently debuted their new music video for their track "Ways To Get High," which is currently approaching NUMBER ONE at Rock Radio.
The track is the second official single to come from their latest full length UP, which was released this past summer. "This song is a chance to free your mind and express yourself in whatever mood you may be in," says frontman Leigh Kakaty. "Find your Shine!"
The video was directed by long-time collaborator Johan Carlén who has helmed the last handful of visually stunning music videos the band has released including "Trenches," "Deal With The Devil," "Torn to Pieces" and most recently their #1 single "Footsteps."
The band reached #1 on the Mainstream Rock Chart for the fourth time in the band's career with their latest smash hit "Footsteps" and stayed there for a staggering 4 weeks last year. The single was not only the fastest charting single the band has to date, but was also the fastest independent record label single to go #1 at rock radio last year.
POP EVIL released UP on August 21, 2015 and saw the release land at #1 on the Billboard Indie Chart in the week of its release. The LP pulled in at #25 Billboard Top 200, #16 Overall and #3 Top Hard Music albums.
UP was released with some serious critical accolades. Blabbermouth called it "an album that will rock the socks (and other clothes, no doubt) off their fans." Huffington Post said the new LP "finds the Michigan band is in fine form." News powerhouse USA Today even recognized that Pop Evil have "become a familiar presence on rock radio" in a recent feature with vocalist Leigh Kakaty. POP EVIL released a flurry of tracks off their LP before its release. "Footsteps" led the charge with "In Disarray," "Dead In The Water" and "Ghost Of Muskegon" right behind it.
The American Weather Premiere New Single "Pray", Debut LP Out In May on Huntridge Records

Las Vegas indie rock 'n' roll three-piece The American Weather, recently signed to upstart Las Vegas record label Huntridge Records, is debuting a new song off their upcoming self-titled debut LP.
Stream "Pray" on Bandcamp. The track is also available on Spotify and iTunes.
The American Weather will be released digitally and on vinyl in May.
Upcoming show:
Mar 05 Bunkhouse Las Vegas, NV
Many words come to mind when trying to describe The American Weather, but few convey a more accurate representation than one in particular: Hungry With the members of this indie rock n' roll three-piece all having been born and raised in the old working class neighborhoods of Las Vegas, their unique sound is simultaneously reminiscent and current, much like the city in which they have spent years cutting their teeth together.
"It's always been Aaron, Kelso, and I. For as long as we've played music, the three of us have played together," says front-man and guitarist Anthony Krantz.
Having started their first musical endeavor before any of them had even started high-school, It's fair to say these boys have had a lot of time to develop the musical dynamic that only years of playing together really can. Between various dirty garages and dusty living rooms this group's organic garage-band upbringing shines in defiance of modern pop-culture's artificial and synthetic norm.
Simple, groovy, catchy, loud, but most importantly, real. The American Weather is the songwriting of Anthony Krantz, showcased by a powerhouse of a rhythm section featuring bassist Jaz Kelso and Aaron Golubic on drums.
About Huntridge Records:
Huntridge Records is an independent label from Las Vegas. It shares its name with the historical Huntridge Theater - a venue which fed youth a steady diet of rock n' roll throughout the 90s. The label intends to preserve that spirit by promoting local artists and releasing bands on vinyl.

ORIGIN are among the leaders of metal's recent wave of extremity. Formed in Kansas (North America) in 1997, the group is considered to be one of the top, most intense and most brutal technical death metal forces to be reckoned with. Their latest offering "Omnipresent" is no exception. "A culmination of 15 years of technical death metal brutality that transcends definition" - states the band. And continues: "From light speed to absolute zero, it is a journey to the farthest reaches of the universe, to the darkest nether of the mind".
Touring in support of "Omnipresnt" is a technical metal feast, which has been proven during the band's most recent co-headlining shows across North America, with extreme metal heroes Krisiun. The upcoming Euro tour will be ORIGIN's second over the course of two years. In 2014 the band took over the continent with Aborted, Miasmal and Exhumed. Up till now, ORIGIN's impressive touring resume includes both Americas, Asia, Australia and Europe.

Jason Keyser - vocals Paul Ryan - guitars/vocals Mike Flores - bass/vocals John Longstreth - drums

3 DOORS DOWN PREMIERE OFFICIAL MUSIC VIDEO FOR “IN THE DARK”
3 Doors Down have revealed the official video for their latest single “In The Dark,” starring none other than RJ Mitte [Emmy Award®-winning Breaking Bad, Switched At Birth] and directed by the duo of Magnus Jonsson and Martin Landgreve of Gaucho Film [Azealia Banks].
“In The Dark” which is already Top 5 at Active Rock Radio, is the first single from the GRAMMY Award®-nominated multiplatinum Mississippi rock band’s sixth full-length offering, Us And The Night [Spinefarm Records], out in stores and digitally March 11. Pre-order it HERE.
Huge fans of the music, the star and filmmakers both jumped at the opportunity to work with the band. Now, the video showcases Mitte like you’ve never seen him before. He puts on his headphones, cranks some 3 Doors Down and what ensues is a bit unexpected - with a sexy twist.
On working with the band on the video and the video’s star RJ Mitte, directors Martin Landgreve & Magnus Jonsson commented: “To make music videos were The Gaucho boys' childhood dream, so to make a video for childhood idols 3 Doors Down is incredible. When Republic Records first reached out to us with this project, we called RJ Mitte right away! Explained the project, our idea for the song and he was ecstatic! Turns out RJ is a big 3 Doors Down fan himself, and told us a few memorable stories from his life that were defined by 3 Doors Down. RJ is a born actor, and probably the best we've worked with. He brings a lot to the table and he's just as cool and rock ‘n’ roll as 3 Doors Down themselves-couldn't have been a better choice for the role! Overall a kick ass song, with a fun and twisted video that leaves you wondering. Making this video was a great experience and everyone in and around the team was amazing!”
Echoing the directors’ love of the band, the video’s star RJ Mitte noted: “I had a great time filming this video, and it was great day of shooting with people I consider my friends. Doing music videos are like mini movie sets and you have to connect with the music as well as the director and the team behind the scenes in order to tell the story the way the band envisioned.
I think we have captured it with this video. I’ve always been a fan of the band so this was a great project to work on. I hope everyone enjoys the video, I can’t wait to see it all play out!”
“We came out of the gate with a song that’s really different for us,” says singer Brad Arnold. “We needed to match that with the video, and Magnus, Martin, and RJ brought that vision to life better than we ever could’ve imagined.”
Following 2011’s Time of My Life, which landed at #3 on the Billboard Top 200 and The Greatest Hits in 2012, the band continued its non-stop touring performing for audiences across the globe. Gearing up for Us And The Night the group recorded the album at Rivergate Studios in Nashville, TN with producer Matt Wallace [Maroon 5, Train, Faith No More] over the course of 2015. It nods to the spirit of their breakout debut with seasoned songwriting and the biggest and boldest songs of their 16-year career to date.
