HOT TRACK: “Stay” by All the Damn Vampires

In my opinion, when it comes to 80’s synth vibes, All the Damn Vampires can do no wrong. Sorry, not sorry. And All the Damn Vampires continues the synth magic with “Stay”. The song is not a cover but an absolute brilliant reimagining of The Kid Laroi and Justin Beiber hit. For those that have been following All the Damn Vampires, they will immediately recognise … Continue reading HOT TRACK: “Stay” by All the Damn Vampires

Symphonic metal is a relatively new genre of metal for me and I’ve enjoyed discovering the extensive players in the genre and this is my first time listening to Sirenia. I’m kind of hooked. I am enamoured by the vocal talents of Emmanuelle Zoldan. In Sirenia’s latest single, a cover of Tanita Tikaram’s “Twist in my Sobriety” from their upcoming 11th studio album, 1977 (May … Continue reading LISTEN: “Twist in My Sobriety” by Sirenia

So, … Continue reading WATCH: “Chokehold” by Will Ramos (Sleep Token cover)

In case you missed it, Our Lady Peace released a brilliant cover of Jane’s Addition “Mountain Song” from last year’s Quebec City show. The band filled in for Jane’s Addiction on a few Canadian shows with the Smashing Pumpkins last year.
