The Royal 🤘🏻

There will be one thing I'll be that perhaps bands or fans-of-bands will not like. That thing is my personal and honest opinion, I repeat, OPINION. In no way should my opinion hold you (the reader) back from checking out anything if you want to. Like I said before, this is only one guy's point of view so please, don't get offended if you don't like what I have to say. So with that being said, let us commence.
    The Royal, I am going to be honest about them. As much as I wanted to connect with their music and like it, I simply couldn't. I'll tell you why. When I listen to modern metalcore bands they all sound the same to me. Unfortunately, I felt like their sound has blurred along with all the other bands. If they would like to stand out then what I look for in a band is for them to captivate us with lyrics and mesmerize us with unique sound. The last thing we want to hear is the same growls and guitar riffs that every other band has made. Although it is intriguing to hear their influences. I don't want anyone to feel like I am trying to belittle The Royal's work. I respect every musician and their craft wether it be vocals, guitar, or beat grids. What I am trying to show is the perspective of a lover of music and what I want to hear is something that's going to snatch up my attention and make me want to show them off. So, The Royal, I am sorry if I sound brutal, but like I said before, this is only one guys opinion. I hope to hear more from you, but I also hope to hear something different when I do. To readers check them out, Their music video Arga is out now!

American Wolves

What hits harder than a lycanthropic and patriotic band name like American Wolves? I can definitely say that their debut music video "Part of Me" will do justice. If you're a fan of the modern feel of genres that incorporate the pop sound with their music without it being the prevalent sound then why not check out "Part of Me"? In all honesty I personally lost interest in the poppy-sounding metalcore and sub-genres alike. The feels I had from those types of sounds came from bands like Attack-Attack and the dub step in Asking Alexandria. But if there are still loyal fans of that sound then by all means check out American Wolves. I mean, who knows? They may be your next undiscovered favorite band. Also based on the description of their music video on their YouTube channel, I can tell that they're a dedicated band that has something big in store for the near future. I'm hoping that that future is as near as I describe it because I don't want to base my whole opinion on one song I've heard. I love hearing the diversity in the music of bands so American Wolves, hurry up. I'm craving to hear what else you have coming our way. Debute single "Part of me" is out now!!

Return of the Dreads

On 7/23/16 I got to see In This Moment, Rob Zombie, and Korn. "Return of the dreads tour".  Honestly blown away through the whole night. It was a first time seeing ITM live. There stage presence is undeniably flawless. Maria looked and sounded astonishing. I can't wait to see them again live! 

Next in this power house line up is Rob Zombie... I can't say enough good things about this exquisite band. This was my 2nd time seeing them. Both times are uniquely different and enjoyable. This last one however took me back to the late 90s early 2000's , the songs, the stage props, down to Mr. Zombies look.  John 5's guitar solo is a force to be wreckin with. His riffs slam deep into your soul and leave you wanting more. 

Korn... The name in itself really needs no introduction. Almost two years ago I went to see them live and was left a little underwhelmed. I know some days are better then others so I chalked it up to that and wanted to check them out again on the next go around. Last Saturday night they brought it and then some. We also got a taste of the new single and I'm excited to see they went back to there roots. Not saying there other stuff is bad just not familiar as there first 2 albums. The best part of the set was seeing there kids come out and rock with them. 

Overall the night was nothing but 100% non stop. You couldn't stop shouting lyrics and jumping up and down from throwing the horns to the middle finger. The best part is seeing their fans coming out in 100+ degree weather to show there love and to see the bands give it right back 10 fold. To people out there who haven't seen these three incredible bands...add it to your bucket list. It's a amazing experience and besides what could top seeing these bands on a Saturday night. Below are a few goodies from that night to show you what your missing, there are also short vids from that night on our Facebook to check out if you find yourself wanting more 💀 👻👽Till the next one this is Lacey and I'll see you in the pit 💀🤘🏻
