Jay RAY – New Single Leave the Past is Out
After four years of absence since his last own composition that was Cold Light, Jay Ray is finally back with his brand new single Leave the Past. It is still hot from the press and my headphones will run out of juice before I stop the loop. This new single brings it on, like Jay Ray has accustomed us to… a well-balanced mix of harsh and clean vocals, he grabs us into a four plus minutes journey we did not know we needed. You know a song is good when you get all smooshy inside, emotional and covered in shivers… you know that a song is great, when after ten,…

AURI – III Candles & Beginnings, a very much anticipated Magical Journey – 15-Aug-2025
A few months ago, Shieldmaiden, the first single from Auri, was released and showed up in my YouTube feed. It instantly pulled me into pressing play. I have been in love with Auri’s music since the first album, and although I had not listened to their music for a long time, it was like going home as soon as the song began. Since Shieldmaiden, I have been tuned to everything Auri that came up. Candles & Beginnings August 15th, 2025 Auri’s third album Candles & Beginnings was released under Nuclear Blast Record Label, and although I have not received the CD yet, I streamed it (sorry Troy)… headphones on, my…

THIRD LUNG are the rising stars of Reading, Southeast England. How fitting is it then that they should reprise the AC/DC classic It’s a long way to the top (if you wanna rock & roll)? Mind you, this is not just another cover. No sir! They have put their identity in the song and with the dexterity of a master’s hand, they have made it their own. Reimagined into an emotional and sensual piece, THIRD LUNG have created a strong experience to say the least. Marquee Records It’s a long way to the top (if you wanna rock & roll) is the first song that THIRD LUNG release under the…

Brave Liaison, Better Off, Single Release 07.07.2023
Better Off is the brand new single by British Alternative Rock band Brave Liaison from Cambridge. As with all their releases, the melody is easily remembered, hummed, automatically dragging your foot along until the move becomes a mirror to the rhythm of the bass and the drums. Simple in its composition, yet efficient and powerful, Better Off won’t leave you unmoved. Ever since I discovered Brave Liaison last year, I have followed the band with great interest and enthusiasm. Better Off follows the pattern of meaningful lyrics and brings a dimension to the band’s music that I particularly affectionate. I’ve said it before, Brave Liaison has something to say and…
