Countess By My Side - We Need Full-Length Album, NOW!

Countess By My Side

Perth, Western Australia

Label: Unsigned

Current Sound: Melodic Progressive Death Metal


By Ava-Mimose

If you like Children Of Bodom, Between The Buried And Me & Cannibal Corpse . . . then you’ll love Countess By My Side.

Countess By My Side was made official in 2011 by five high school students that all shared an interest in music. Working hard to showcase and perfect their song writing skills as well as trying out new playing techniques in order to sound as original as they possibly can, earlier this year, CBMS recorded their debut EP "Esoteric" which was released in March 2012. This 4 track EP does not disappoint! And it only leaves you wondering what they’re going to have in store for us with a possible upcoming full-length album.

George Hadnett - Vocals/(Rhythm guitar live)
Stephen Barrett - Guitar
Matt Unkovich - Drums
Michael Fitzpatrick - Keys
Joshua Cusack - Bass

I must say I am amazed by the sound of this band. When you check them out on their Facebook page you would not think it would be them delivering such a powerful sound and the thundering vocals from George Hadnett. It would be absolutely amazing to see Countes By My Side share the bill with the like of Born Of Osiris, Children Of Bodom, Between The Buried And Me, Oceano & Cannibal Corpse. And with the awesome response and attention they’ve been getting from their fans current and new since the release of "Esoteric”, I can say that they will soon have their chance to tour the entire globe for the following months and years to come and bring to us, the best death metal they have to offer.

Review: The FountNHead

The FountNHead

Atlanta, Georgia to Los Angeles, CA

Label: Recording in Los Angeles

Current Sound: Rock / Punk/ Hip-Hop

"Higher than Heaven, Still Blacker than Hell" (EP)

I often thought that if I was really that motivated to start a band or join one it would sound exactly like The FountNHead. They are everything I would want my band to be if I was actually in one. They simply ooze the familiar sound of awesome bands like Linkin Park, Plain White T's, P.O.D., Limp Bizkit & Rage Against the Machine. And not to mention a very strong stage presence from the lead-female rap vocals, Jewels. From her I get a Fefe Dobson vibe.

The FountNHead is a 5-peice band coming all the way from Atlanta. As you know Atlanta doesn't really have a huge rock scene going on. It’s heavily dominated by Hip-Hop, Rap, R&B & most commercial pop music out today. The FountNHead sound is mix of Rock, Punk & Hip-Hop. But it's an awesome sound. It’s not like one genre is more pronounced than the other. No, it actually is even in sound quality of the two genres. Just listen to their EP "Higher than Heaven, Still Blacker than Hell" out now. A 4 track EP starting it off with their most popular single "As A Skunk." This song is the most up tempo out of all 4 tracks on the EP. It is then followed by songs like "Bang Bang Bang", Trippin" and "Free and Flowing." as you listen to it you notice the tempo of each song slows down but not as dramatic as you would think.

The FountNHead - As A Skunk (Music Video)

So far The FountNHead has received so much press and have gotten a lot of positive reviews as well as a growing fan base. The FountNHead have been through it all musically and mentally. They refuse to follow the status quo in music. They will continue to be aware of their humble yet tumultuous journey of their own individual selves and as a band a unit a family.

The FountNHead have an upcoming show

Skinny's Lounge 4923 Lankershim Blvd. North Hollywood, CA 91601 www.skinnysloun​ge.com Doors open 7 p.m. // Show starts 7:30 p.m. 21+ $5 cover

ECHOES THE FALL

Echoes the Fall an awesome rock band hailing all the way from Phoenix, AZ and has undoubtedly left there mark not only in their great home state but also in the music community as a whole.

I first caught wind of the song "This is not Goodbye" from there self-titled EP that was released in July 2011. There are also three more track on the EP (a total of 4) songs "Because of You", "Start Over Again" and "Burn It Down". I must say as I'm listening to this EP they have the same drive and force from such bands as P.O.D., Linkin Park, SevenDust and Chevelle. And I love those bands so you already know that I am liking this band right of the bat from their first song off the EP.

Echoes The Fall released a full-lenght album 2009 "Bloodline" with the former frontman for the band David Mackey who recently left the band in June 2011. Mackey has been with Echoes The Fall for 15 years, but don't worry the decision was made on good terms all around. With that said having acquired Jeromy Moorehead (former member of "One Minute Halo") things are already off to a good start.

Echoes The Fall are Jeromy Moorehead (Vocals) Mike Gable (Guitar) Trevor Keeling (Bass) Myles Byrum (Guitar) Mitch Gable (Drums) you can now catch them on tour w/ 10 Years across the U.S. from July to August {ETF}. Here are other site to check them out at and listen to their music, trust me you will not be disappointed!!!

EP NOW AVALIABLE ON ITUNES.
