The masters of metal, Slipknot released a stand alone single last week, titled, “Bone Church”. The video is titled, “Yen – Director’s Cut (Bone Church)” and was directed by M.Shawn Crahan aka “clown”. Clown says this of the song, On the road, we have a “jam room” set up backstage at every show, where we play, practice, warm up and sometimes try out new ideas. … Continue reading HOT TRACK: “Bone Church” by Slipknot
All I have to say about this brilliant retake of The Verve’s hit is that Ren has once again taken his mad talent and given us another infectious song. Unlike “Hi Ren” or “Sick Boi” this track is an ode to Britain as he raps / sings along to the music of “Bittersweet Symphony” and walks along the streets of his home. I’ve got a … Continue reading HOT TRACK: “Bittersweet Symphony” by Ren
There’s something absolutely dreamy about Cosmic Crooner. It’s the voice and the swagger that echoes through said voice, and it’s the suave confidence that comes through in his photos and videos. His latest track, “Spoiler Alert” from this forthcoming album, The Perks of Being a Hypocrite, is drenched in copious amounts of dreaminess. “Spoiler Alert” is a wonderful mix of 60’s and doowop sound and … Continue reading HOT TRACK: “Spoiler Alert” by Cosmic Crooner
Yeehaw! Gimmie synth! All the synth! And also gimmie ballsy and badass female fronted bands with an attitude! That is what Bitter Kisses are giving me and I am 100% in. This Bristol based four piece is Gemma Tracey (vocals), Thomas Adams (bass and vocals), Josh Butches (guitar and vocals), and Scarlett Cawley (drums) and their debut single “Pr*y” is out now! The band says … Continue reading DEBUT SINGLE: “Pr*y” by Bitter Kisses
I’ve seen the name Kamelot a lot, but never once sat down and listened to their music. So when I say, I am new to the Kamelot fandom, I mean I am brand new. “One More Flag in the Ground” is the first song I’ve ever listened to by the band and I’d like to aplogise for being late to the Kamelot party. Because good … Continue reading KAMELOT: One More Flag in the Ground
Absolutely fangirled over this announcement. My teenage years of hair metal and adult years of metal combined into one song! Ghost is joined by Def Leppard frontman, Joe Elliott, on “Spillways” and it’s fantastic. “Spillways” always had a hair metal guitar wail and Joe’s voice fits in wonderfully with Ghost frontman’s Tobias Forge. Listen to “Spillways” below Continue reading GHOST: Spillways featuring Joe Elliott
Music guru, Eric Alper, recently tweeted, “Try listening to different music genres to expand not only your creativity, but you might find your next favorite artist, too.” We take Eric’s words to heart and while we here at Amplify the Noise do listen to everything that crosses our paths, we don’t necessarily dig everything that crosses our paths. For the music that we don’t like, … Continue reading Visions of Atlantis: Clocks
While Carbellion’s Weapon of Choice isn’t out until 17-March, the Wisconsin 5 piece have released their second single and video, “Barfight”, from the forthcoming album. The song title alone should give away the theme for the song and it indicates in one simple word what kind of song one is going to get. “Barfight” takes me back to 80’s and 90’s rock and metal where … Continue reading Carbellion: Barfight
If the faces of Safari Gold look familiar, it’s because back in the 2010’s they were known as Cuba Cuba. In the words of Phil from Cameron Crowe’s Roadies, “when you find your band, you find your band”, and that’s what the gentlemen of Safari Gold have done. They may not be their former 2010’s selves, but they are still making music together after all … Continue reading Safari Gold: Last Chance Addict
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. While I’m sure Jane’s Addiction fans were bummed to have missed them, OLP fans got this solid cover that we hope also satiated Jane’s … Continue reading Our Lady Peace: Mountain Song
Welp, in the span of 9, maybe 10 days, Lord of the Lost, released the “Blood & Glitter” video, the album, and now the video “Leave Your Hate in the Comments”. Of the album’s release, vocalist Chris Lord said this, In a time when the marketing madness for each album seems to last longer and longer, when half the album – or even more – … Continue reading Lord of the Lost: Leave Your Hate in the Comments
I discovered Alfie Jukes from Instagram when the below Reel showed up in things I might like. I was so blown away by Alfie belting out “Careless Whispers” in his bathroom that I binged his other videos that evening and then sought out his music on Apple Music and Spotify. The cover of one of my favourite Wham songs hooked me, but it was the … Continue reading Alfie Jukes: Spiderwebs
