BLACK STAR JACKALS - Party People

4-piece alt-rock/indie band from Glasgow, Black Star Jackals have just released new party banger Party People. A hook so infectious you can’t stop yourself from singing. A beat so pounding you resist the urge to move. The uplifting riffs are haunted by vocals delivered through a forked tongue. Sang from the point of view of one’s inner demons, the lyrics are joined by a rhythm section hell bent on compelling you to join the party, and dance away your dreams.

Black Star Jackals went into Venice of the North studios with ambitions to create a melodically infectious dance song with a gritty guitar driven bite.

Having only formed in mid 2019, the band have already won a national music competition (Soundwaves), received airplay on BBC Introducing and Planet Rock and received critical acclaim from industry experts including the "Godfather of Rock' Tom Russell, who described the band as having a "bright future".

In one word : Excellent !!!

DEAD MANIFEST - Blood

Blood is the new single from the Dublin hard-rock trio Dead Manifest. A supercharged hard-rock anthem, Blood chugs along until it explodes. The verses are built out of riff after riff. The headbanging heart-racing adrenaline of these sections gives way, momentarily, before a startlingly thoughtful chorus crashes in. A healthy violence and anthemic quality persist throughout, aided by the breadth of genuine musicianship afforded by the band, and a feeling of authenticity. The result is a track that doggedly straddles grunge, contemporary punk, hard-rock and metal. 

In two words: Must Listen !!

Aaron Nestor (vocals & guitar)

SEAN BOOTS - Soon I'll Be Moving On

Sean Boots, former lead singer of Seattle's Amateur Lovers, has released a new song, “Soon I’ll Be Moving On” about quitting his former band. The song explores the paranoia, anger and resignation one feels when about to lose something or someone important. It is written from the perspective of his former band mates and brings a sense of cognitive dissonance to the listener when Sean refers to himself as a "dirty bastard" and "double-crosser" over the sweet, piano-laden verses. It begins softly with a haunting piano intro and grows into a powerful rock chorus with an intriguing but catchy chord progression. Ironically, the release of this song about Sean quitting music is now being used by him to re-establish himself in the music scene.
