Juggernaught
Hailing all the way from the depths of Pretoria, South Africa, Juggernaught are a quintessential example of rare and exhilarating rock music.
Avoiding the limitations of being labelled as one specific musical sub-genre, the band sees themselves as a rock band with a huge range of influences from blues, jazz, funk and metal. Since their inception, Juggernaught have performed non-stop throughout South Africa, Namibia, Mozambique and Botswana, from small local shows to huge festivals including Oppikoppi and Ramfest.
Prior to the band's formation in 2007, Juggernaught's members had a colourful history of playing in other bands from a variety of different musical scenes. Juggernaught's frontman and guitarist Herman Le Roux was in metal band Shadowlord in the '90's while Jovan Tutunovic (guitar) and Alexis Schofield (drums) grew up around South Africa's hardcore punk scene before moving to the UK to form groove metal band Hellbent and Hammered. Clint Falconer comes from a rock and Jazz background and is also the bassist for Dan Patlansky.
Juggernaught released their first demo in 2007 entitled Vol. 1, followed shortly thereafter by 2008's debut full-length album Act of Goat. 2011 saw the band release Brown Pleather, which was a set of previously-unreleased tracks including three demo versions of tracks that later appeared on their 2012 sophomore album Bring The Meat Back.
2016 is the year of the album "Full Grown Woman"
Considered by critics to be the band's finest work to date. Full Grown Woman sees the band seriously coming into their own.
with a new album and plans for an international tour in the works, Juggernaught are an enticingly unique band.

SWEET CRYSTAL - 5 CARAT ROCK (2016)
“5 CARAT ROCK”– the fifth release from fifteen time (and counting) Detroit Music Award winning rock band SWEET CRYSTAL is shining even brighter, thanks to their ongoing collaboration with engineer/producer Chuck Alkazian (Christina Aguilera, Mitch Ryder, Pop Evil).
The new 7 song, 8 track (more on that later) EP features all the stellar guitar tones and solos, keyboard melodies and arrangements and dynamic vocal performances of previous SWEET CRYSTAL releases, but it’s the addition of Pearl Sound Studios (Canton, MI) signature live drum tracks and Alkazian’s bass playing that makes this the most powerful and poignant project to date for the band – and that’s saying a lot.
“There are some pretty sweet themes behind the original songs on 5 Carat Rock” says founding member Marq Andrew Speck. “The opening track “Even Now” is based on how our lives parallel the story of Lazarus in the Bible. “Come As We Are” is the first full out praise-n-worship song we’ve ever written. “Jericho” equates the walls we build in our lives to those of that ill-fated city in the Old Testament and “Can’t Turn Back” is a reflection on how we react as we encounter the world around us. There will be a song or two (Ed. Note: or more) in 5 Carat Rock that touches everyone right where they live.”
The physical CD (released on the Nightcrier Music label) also contains bonus tracks not available as downloads: SWEET CRYSTAL not only covers music from two iconic artists (Bob Dylan and Motley Crue), but perhaps the most interesting cut is Track 8 - “Sgt. Penney 1945 (Live)”. This historic audio archive is a restored live recording from a young soldier, originally broadcast in 1945 from the Pacific front during World War II back to a Detroit radio station. “There is a very unique connection between this decorated warrior and the band that made this well worth documenting on this release” says Speck.
The core trio of musicians that make up SWEET CRYSTAL - Marq Andrew Speck (lead vocal, anything with keys), Bill Blatter (vocals, anything with strings) and Steve Wieser (anything hit with sticks) remains standing strong on the front lines of the Michigan music scene. Their music, message, mission and ministry continue and show no sign of slowing down any time soon.
SWEET CRYSTAL and 5 CARAT ROCK – still “Reaching The World, One Song At A Time ™”!

SWEET CRYSTAL - QUAD (2015)
The return of eleven time Detroit Music Award winners SWEET CRYSTAL with their latest release “QUAD” finds the band sounding larger and more powerful than ever, thanks to the collaboration with award-‐winning mixer/engineer Chuck Alkazian (Christina Aguilera, R Kelly, Mitch Ryder, Pop Evil) and Pearl Sound Studios, Canton, MI.
From the opening flourish of “Fanfare” right into the slide-‐guitar driven
progressive rock anthem “Foot Of The Cross”, these songs will satisfy the
cravings for more SWEET CRYSTAL from even the most demanding fans.
Featuring performances by special guest vocalists Amy Susan Heard and David
Perez , there are storylines and soaring musical lines on QUAD for every taste
and situation.
“We’ve really upped our sonic onslaught with QUAD” says founding member
Marq Andrew Speck. “There are songs here about desperation and redemption,
asking questions of faith and finding real answers for our lives as well as some
mighty sweet instrumentals.”
As and added surprise to the band, the song “Foot Of The Cross” has already won a 2015 Global Music Award in the Rock category, even before the EP has officially been released.
The physical CD also contains a 14 minute bonus track: an in-‐depth interview with the band, giving listeners more insight into SWEET CRYSTAL and what QUAD is all about; a must have for new and classic fans alike.
SWEET CRYSTAL is a very rare group of musicians. Not only has the band remained in existence for an impressive 40 years, but also the core trio of Marq Andrew Speck (lead vocals, keyboards), Bill Blatter (guitar, vocals) and Steve Wieser (drums) has remained intact for the entirety of that time. Perhaps most importantly, the band has remained standing strong on the front lines of the Michigan Christian rock scene, even before that music genre had a name.
SWEET CRYSTAL and QUAD – still “Reaching The World, One Song At A Time ™”!

The Flux Machine
Punk-infused alt-rock from New York City. Influenced by the likes of The Rolling Stones, The Ramones and The Foo Fighters, this new act is ready to claim its stake in the arena of rock and roll music. Audiofuzz.com called them “Exile on Main Street Revisited”.
With a powerful 5-piece live ensemble, the band has been playing
all over NYC with it’s electrifying and energetic stage show.
Mesmerizing to watch as they deliver punchy, catchy punk songs
repeatedly. Arlene’s Grocery, The Bowery Electric, The Delancey are just
a few of the venues that have repeatedly hosted The Flux Machine. Planetstereolive reassures: “The
Flux Machine seamlessly blends a classic bluegrass feel to their
gritty, alternative rock attitude that will have you bouncing around
your room like you’re in the middle of a concert.”
Luis Accorsi, a veteran rocker with many musical styles under his
belt (Cracked Latin [Latin], Man’s Laughter [Rock] and Petty Merchants
[classic rock]) has teamed up with the fresh, new rock producer Raphael
Sepulveda to create a varied, yet cohesive collection of adrenaline
driven, heartfelt, contemporary songs which they’ve called “Louder!”
Musicjunkiepress.com raved “Their music rings out with old punk
flair, infectious pop vibe, and a modern edge that is sure to kidnap the
space in your head”.
Familiar but yet like nothing you’ve ever heard before, The Flux Machine.

DASH|TEN
At first glance, DASH|TEN could seem perplexing. Fueled and funded to enlighten concert-goers to the bigger picture of the U.S. Army, that band could easily be confused for a shrewd promotion or a selling stake. Yet buried beneath their training and combined 40-years of active service in the armed forces, the collective, consisting of drummer Peter Greenberg, guitarist Steve Ebert and the enigmatic front-woman and chief songwriter Corrin Campbell, is categorically like most young bands, who’ve merged their lifelong love of music to create, record and release their self-titled debut, Dash|Ten, before hitting the road to play the entirety of the 2016 Vans Warped Tour.
However, the band’s unique military experience has equipped them with a series of distinctive qualities, irreplaceable and essential to the band’s vigorous charge and demonstrative framework. Driven by Campbell’s hindrances while trying to rebuild herself during a paralyzing period of her life, the songs echo her resolution to shove through the snags and thorns that slow us down. “People can feel stuck in life, and it takes a certain kind of energy to push through,” Campbell reflects on the makeup of the album. “The album is made up from my feelings, both positive and negative. It was reflecting on where I would go and how long it might take me to get there.”
Ultimately, Campbell’s struggles and experiences have prepared her to thrive in an industry often monopolized by men. “My first station was at Foot Hood, Texas. So as a woman, I was outnumbered 20-to-1,” she recalls. “So I always felt like there was a responsibility to speak up and give a path for anyone who wanted to fall in line with me. “I think that being a minority of any kind, let it be gender or race or sexuality, you have an alternate viewpoint from a majority of the people around you. I think that there are two options in that situation. You can either hide or you can stand up for it.”
It is her candid emphasis and avid desire to flourish, combined with an overpowering drive to establish a sincere relationship with the world that powers Dash|Ten. “I want people to find us authentic,” Campbell admits, reflecting on the exceedingly “live from the floor” process in which the band recorded. “The album is meant to sound like when you walk into a garage where your favorite band is practicing. It intentionally lacks glitz and glamour. It is raw. We’re not out there to be a polished packaged item. There is a real story behind every song. There is real heartbreak behind every song. They’re very vulnerable and soaked in truth.”
Her energy, combined with the technical training of Greenberg and Ebert, who spent years jet setting to places like Seoul, South Korea, and Hawaii as hired musicians, explodes as it hits the tape. “Vocally, I have very little traditional training. The guys have done technical training for most of their career. They were drilled into knowing what they were doing. I’ve gotten to self-indulge. I can make the vocals sound the way that I want them to. So in a way I got to invent my own sound. The combination has allowed us to make our sound.”
That sound detonates in tongue-in-cheek vivaciousness, piercing tendencies of persistence and demonstrative lyrics wedged over jagged, biting guitars and belligerent percussion.
Dash|Ten is Corrin Campbell (Vocals and Bass), Steve Ebert (Guitars) and Peter Greenberg (Drums).

NewClue
Sure, we all have our bumps in life, but NewClue has been through the trenches. As formed in the very late 80’s, (and after about 7 years) all disbursed and went their separate ways. Neil (the vocalist) almost died, when he slammed his motorcycle into a telephone pole back in 2000. With TBI, he had to learn to walk & talk (as well as sing) all over again. With the reformation of yesteryear’s "NoClue", the band rejoined into today’s "NewClue" in 2014. The guys came back, full circle. Neil's heartwarming story, and his willingness to never give up on a dream, fueled the fire and sparked the embers for pure passion and the love for music. Here is the reason that he lived and what they have to give…
