Hungarian Experimental prog instrumentalists Ghost Toast release "Last Man" music video

Hungarian instrumental, experimental progressive rock band Ghost Toast released a new music video "Last Man" and it's available here: https://youtu.be/OdYJBONwfHo 

"Last Man" is taken from the critically-acclaimed "Out of This World" album which was released June 7th 2017 by Inverse Records.The song was inspired by the novel I Am Legend by Richard Matheson, and two movie adaptations (Last Man on Earth and Omega Man), the speech samples are from these movies as well. We tried to represent the dramatic mood of the story, gradually built up from beginning to end.The music video is directed, shot and edited by Tamás Varga from Brownhandfilm. 
"The Last Man character in the video is played by Ghost Toast's drummer (László Papp). The parallel between him and Vincent Price from the Last Man on Earth movie is the main concept of the video.The video was shot in extreme hot weather and László cut himself during it, so we almost literally gave blood, sweat and tears to make this music video" says the guitarist Rózsavölgyi Bence.

The band is currently writing new material for their fourth full-length album. The release date is announced later in 2018..

Danish Hardcore crew Psy:Code release "Paralyzed" official video

8/10/2017

Copenhagen-based modern hardcore group Psy:Code have released the official video for "Paralyzed," a track from new album Mørke. The band issued the following statement about the video: "We've chosen not to appear in this video, but to keep focus on the emotions that fit the song perfectly. With this amount of videos, it is important for us that they are very different. The video is made from the short film 'Unwind' which has been cut to pieces, and assembled to fit the track. The song is about a dear friend who we almost lost due to a critical surgery. We hope you enjoy this short emotional ride."

View the "Paralyzed" video at: https://youtu.be/_JuQk98R6Uw
Mørke is out now on Pavement Entertainment. The album can be purchased through iTunes and Amazon.

Psy:code is a band driven by a desire to reach beyond its own boundaries. The band's first two releases, Delusion and Cause and Neglect, were met with critical acclaim by critics worldwide. The praise was not met with complacency and Psy:code set the bar higher when writing their third album. Mørke is a natural progression, but remains grounded in the roots planted by its predecessors.

Over the years Psy:Code has supported several major acts, including Slayer, Mastodon, Amon Amarth, Trivium, Gorefest, Illdisposed and Artillery. The band has toured extensively in their native Denmark and throughout Europe.

Paloma Faith releases details of her new album & London show; drops 'Crybaby' music video

26/9/2017

Paloma Faith – one of only two British female artists this decade to have their last three albums go double platinum in the UK – will release her long-awaited fourth album, ‘The Architect’, on November 17 via RCA Records.
 
The new album – her first in more than three years and since giving birth to her first child – features an array of acclaimed co-writers, producers and collaborators including: Sia, John Legend, Jesse Shatkin, TMS, Starsmith, Tobias Jesso Jr., Eg White, Rag'n'Bone Man, actor Samuel L. Jackson and journalist and activist Owen Jones.
 
Paloma, who won the BRIT Award for British Female Solo Artist in 2015 following the phenomenal success of her last record, 2014’s ‘A Perfect Contradiction’, explores both personal and political themes on the album.
 
Whilst the music is classic Paloma – with sweeping orchestral tracks, smooth soul, sleek disco grooves and stomping electro pop all featured on the album – the lyrics raise social and political questions, and cover powerful and topical themes, such as motherhood, social anxiety, wealth inequality, technology’s impact on feelings of alienation…. oh and also the future of the Western world, Donald Trump, Brexit and the refugee crisis – all within the confines of classic pop.

11. Lost and Lonely
12. Still Around
13. Pawns ft. Baby N’Sola, Janelle Martin & Naomi Miller
14. WW3
15. Love Me As I Am
 


A deluxe version of the album will include four bonus tracks -
 
16. Power to the Peaceful
17. Tonight’s Not the Only Night
18. My Body
19. Price of Fame

Title track ‘The Architect’ features - if you can imagine it – Paloma as Mother Nature, singing to humanity, while ‘Guilty’ reflects on the Brexit vote from the perspective of a Leave voter who regrets their choice. Lead single ‘Crybaby’ ponders whether war would cease to exist if men successfully dealt with their emotions, and ‘Lost and Lonely’ is sung from the viewpoint of a skeleton!
 
The album also includes the track ‘Warrior’ written by Sia, which Paloma interprets to be about the refugee crisis, a duet with John Legend, ‘I’ll Be Gentle’, and two spoken word interludes – album opener ‘Evolution’ which is performed by acclaimed actor Samuel L. Jackson and ‘Politics of Hope’ which is a political commentary by Owen Jones. String arrangements on ‘The Architect’, ‘Warrior’ and ‘I’ll Be Gentle’ were written by David Arnold, the celebrated film and TV composer best known for his work on James Bond and Sherlock.
 
Paloma said: “‘The Architect’ is a social observation record. I was adamant that I wouldn’t write about love. I wanted to look outside of myself. I’m coming at politics from the perspective of the common man or woman, observing why people are suffering. Each song on the record is about a different pocket of the socio-political world that I’ve been delving into.”
 
She added: “I wanted to write something more modern. On previous albums I’ve been more concerned with the past, but now I’m looking forward because of motherhood and wanting to change things for a better future. It’s a marriage of old and new.”
 
Today Paloma releases the video for first single, ‘Crybaby’ – watch here. The dystopian video, which is directed by Thomas James and was shot in Ukraine, opens with footage of IVF, a newborn baby and a young girl, before a man addresses a group of uniformed young people, including the girl, in a human factory. He gives a speech about qualities such as emotion, empathy and feeling, which he says are “for the weak, for those we leave behind, for those that we remove from the crop.” The rest of video features Paloma as one of the people in the institution as she encounters the brutal training of the people imprisoned.
 
‘The Architect’ follows the huge success of Paloma’s last album, ‘A Perfect Contradiction’, which spent 29 weeks in the Top 10 Albums Chart, 66 weeks in the Top 40, and 100 weeks in the Top 200. The epic lead single from the record, ‘Only Love Can Hurt Like This’, is Paloma’s biggest-selling to date, with over half a million copies sold and 55 million streams on Spotify.


Pre-order the ‘The Architect’ here and here
 
Paloma will embark on a UK arena tour next year, entertaining huge crowds across the UK and Ireland playing shows at venues including the Manchester Arena, Newcastle’s Metro Radio Arena, Motorpoint Arena Cardiff, The SSE Hydro in Glasgow, Dublin’s 3Arena and London’s O2 Arena. Tickets for The Architect tour 2018 go on sale on September 29 at 9am via gigsandtours.com

Tampa Bay post-hardcore quintet Limbs is thrilled to announce that they have signed to Equal Vision Records. Fans can watch the band's new video "Poison" now, here: youtu.be/hHOPWjSOtnM. For additional information, please visit: www.whoislimbs.com
 
On signing with Equal Vision Records, the band shares: "We're incredibly excited to be joining the Equal Vision roster alongside so many bands we all hold in high regards. Everyone at the label has treated us like family since day one. We're humbled by the trust they've extended to us and we look forward to growing alongside them as a band over the coming years."
 
Limbs is Chris Costanza (vocals), Daniel Nelson (drums), Josh Kowalski (bass), Jordan Hunter (guitar), and Tyler Martin (guitar). The band debuted with their EP, Admission, in late 2014, to copious amounts of positive feedback.
 
In 2015, Limbs toured the DIY circuits relentlessly, and released two independent singles. In March of 2015, Limbs released the first single entitled "Poison," once again receiving immensely positive feedback. Two months later, Limbs released their second single of the year entitled "Ruin."
 
Limbs ventured out on a south-eastern tour with Saosin in 2016, and also performed at the South By So What?! Music Festival in Dallas, Texas. That year they also recorded a 3 song EP entitled Sleep - mixed by Beau Burchell (Saosin) and mastered by Mike Kalajian - which was released in April of 2017.
 
In 2017 the band also joined up with Royal Division Entertainment for management, and soon set out to support Envy on the Coast on select dates in the south-east. Following that, the band trekked across the country supporting Hail The Sun on their nationwide headliner.
 
As the latter half of 2017 approaches a new year, the band has no plans to slow down; they will be touring this fall, and winter recording plans are already set.

Upcoming Tour Dates:

10/27 - Tampa, FL @ Transitions
10/29 - Pensacola, FL @ Handlebar

Haloo Helsinki! ja Tuntematon sotilas -elokuva yhdistävät voimansa – yhtyeen uusi single ja video ”Tuntematon” perjantaina

13/9/2017

Suomen suurin yhtye Haloo Helsinki! julkaisee perjantaina 15.9. täysin uuden singlen ”Tuntematon”. Aku Louhimiehen ja Aleksi Koskisen ohjaamalla musiikkivideolla yhtye nähdään Tuntematon sotilas -elokuvan maisemissa. ”Tuntematon” on ensimmäinen uusi single tuplaplatinaa myyneen ”Hulluuden Highway” -albumin jälkeen.

“Meillä oli Hulluuden Highway -levyn biisidemojen joukossa yksi melodia, jota tarjottiin Aku Louhimiehelle tulevan Tuntematon sotilas -elokuvan musavideoprojektiksi. Tämä oli luontainen jatkumo 8-pallo -elokuvan yhteistyön jälkeen”, kertoo kappaleen säveltänyt kitaristi Leo Hakanen.

“Aku tykästyi kovasti Tuntematon-biisin melodiaan sekä tekstin universaaliin yhdistymisen teemaan. Oli mahtavaa tehdä toistamiseen yhteistyötä aina innostavan ja sympaattisen Aku Louhimiehen kanssa!” kuvailee laulaja-sanoittaja Elli Haloo.

”Haloo Helsinki! -yhtyeen kanssa on aina suuri ilo työskennellä! Ihailen sitä herkkyyttä ja intohimoa, jolla he tarttuvat uuteen. Toivon, että olemme saaneet bändin huikean live-energian välittymään videolla”, kertoo Tuntematon-musiikkivideon ja Tuntematon sotilas -elokuvan ohjaaja Aku Louhimies.

Haloo Helsinki! tekee 10-vuotisen uran kunniaksi massiivisen Hulluuden Highway Areenakiertueen, joka käynnistyy 20.10. ja kattaa 10 kaupunkia. Turun Logomon ja Tampereen Tähti Areenan keikat ovat loppuunvarattuja. Kiertueen päätöskonsertti Helsingin Hartwall Arenassa 2. joulukuuta on lähes loppuunvarattu.

Aku Louhimiehen Tuntematon sotilas -elokuvan ennakkolipunmyynti alkaa perjantaina 29.9.2017 elokuvateattereissa. Elokuva saa ensi-iltansa 27.10.2017. Elokuvan pääosia näyttelevät Eero Aho, Johannes Holopainen, Jussi Vatanen ja Aku Hirviniemi. Tuntematon sotilas -elokuvan käsikirjoitus pohjautuu Väinö Linnan romaaniin.

Haloo Helsinki! teki maaliskuussa paluun keikkalavoille kahdella Tallinnan Saku Arenan konsertilla, jotka keräsivät yhteensä lähes 20 000 hengen yleisön. Paluukonsertteja seurasi Suomen-kiertue, jonka kaikki keikat olivat loppuunmyytyjä. Kesällä 2017 yhtye teki 26 festivaalikeikkaa.

Haloo Helsinki! julkaisi maaliskuussa kuudennen albuminsa ”Hulluuden Highway”. Berliinissä legendaarisessa Hansa Studiossa äänitetty albumi on myynyt tuplaplatinaan oikeuttavat yli 40 000 kappaletta. Hulluuden Highway on ollut Suomen virallisella albumilistalla 26 viikkoa, joista 14 viikkoa sijalla #1. Albumi sisältää platinasinglet ”Rakas” ja ”Hulluuden Highway” sekä kultasinglen ”Oh No Let’s Go”.

Haloo Helsinki! on tämän hetken suurin suomalainen yhtye, joka on julkaissut 6 albumia, joita on myyty yhteensä yli 300 000 kappaletta. Yhtyeen kappaleita on kuunneltu streamauspalveluissa yli 120 miljoonaa kertaa ja musiikkivideoita katsottu yli 55 miljoonaa kertaa. Saavutuksiin kuuluu lisäksi mm. 6 Emma-palkintoa, 10 radiolistan ykkössingleä sekä lähes 700 keikkaa. Yhtyeen hitteihin kuuluvat mm. ”Rakas”, ”Hulluuden Highway”, ”Beibi”, ”Kuussa tuulee”, ”Pulp Fiction”, ”Vihaan kyllästynyt”, ”Kiitos ei ole kirosana”, ”Huuda!”, ”Maailman toisella puolen”, ”Vapaus käteen jää” ja ”Maailma on tehty meitä varten”.
