My Position – “Fly Away” new song and music video, presave now!

Native to South Florida, now living in North Carolina, Joe Marks has grown up with musicianship around him his entire life. Starting with forming a band with his brothers straight out of high school, he has recorded, performed, and collaborated on many projects from his own YouTube covers, to working with bands/artists such as Pinnacle SoulAmirwaveChris OdiumPolar NightPosthouse Tuomi, Adrien Gonzales & Dayshell.

In 2019, he created a project of a fusion of electronic genres with his friend Christian Sandoval, called Lucent Veil.
However, his long-time desire to work on electronic rock music along with the guidance of his friend, Shayley Bourget of Dayshell, led to the creation of his latest venture,
My Position.

Highly influenced by the sounds of some of his favorite artists, including Dayshell, Celldweller, and Northlane, the musical direction of his debut self-titled EP released in 2021 is akin to nu-metal with a modern low-toned twist, flavored with electronic elements.

Joe tends to write lyrics that draw from the human condition allowing listeners to relate to topics or thoughts they may be going through themselves. Joe continues to collaborate with different artists, working as much as he can on new material. 

The new single from My Position, ‘Fly Away,‘ will be available on November 24th, featuring Adrien Gonzales.

Second To Sun – released Official Live Video from their upcoming live album

Introducing the official live video recording from the band’s performance at the Dark Waters Festival. It’s a direct, multi-channel recording from the mixing console, all mixed and mastered at Blastbeard Sound.

“With pride, we present to you the first live album by Second To Sun, recorded at three different shows over the past three years.

Each of the three parts of the album consists of three different recording states: live, raw, and pure chaos. The live recording is a high-quality mixed and mastered version, the raw one is a direct feed from the soundboard during caught the show, and the third, the orthodox one, for the true connoisseurs of raw black metal, is captured on a handheld recorder right at the center of the stage during the performance.

This conceptual creation comes with incredible bonuses: every purchaser of the digital release or CD (coming soon) on Bandcamp will receive access to a video version of the band’s performance at the Dark Waters festival. It marks the only time in the band’s history that we played aboard an actual ship”

Get ready for Abaddon’s End’s new single, “Aspire.”

NuMetal/Hard Rock Band from central Wisconsin.

Kyle Alt  and Steve Sugden are the founding members of Abaddon’s End. 

They have been making music together for over 27 years and have been in 30+ bands together including  Shaman Spell, Red Rain, and Tarnished.

They are musicians, but they are also friends and the trust they’ve built over the years shows by how in sync they are as performers.  

KYLE ALT (drums)– Kyle comes from an incredibly musical family and has been performing since he was old enough to hold a pair of drumsticks. His parents always said, “As soon as you could crawl you were drumming on everything!”  He has previously toured for six plus years, and has had the pleasure and luck to open for bands like Nazareth, Jackyl, Frank Hannon, Dr. Hook, Bad Finger, Candle Box, Oleander, and Blue Oyster Cult.  Music has always been his passion and over his musical career he has been inspired by greats like  Ian Paice, Ray Luzier, Abe Laboriel Jr., and Paul McCartney. When asked why he plays he said, “The love of music and the power it has on people, has just always made me feel proud to play it”.

STEVE SUGDEN (bass)– Much like Kyle, Steve also comes from a musically talented family.  One of Steve’s biggest inspirations was his father who was a bass player for Vilas Craig and The Vicounts.  They were one of the first rock bands in the state of Wisconsin, and were popular in the late 50s and early 60s. He considered his father a friend, mentor, and part of what has influenced his love for music over the years. In his youth he also picked up the bass and hasn’t put it down since.  “I love to create and write music. I’ve always enjoyed the bass because of its low end sound and importance to the rhythm section. I like that I can feel the music when I play.”

TIM SHELTON (guitar)– Tim’s music education started early, as he watched his father play in a blue grass band. Later, Tim grew up listening to artists like Dio, Metal Church, Iron Maiden and more. Bands like these sparked his enduring passion for rock. He takes influence from all types of music, which he pulls from in his prolific song writing. First and foremost, he is a music fan, and it drives his passion for the music. It is evident in his energetic stage performances and his welcoming fan interactions. He is grateful to have had the opportunity to share the stage with bands like Queensrÿch, Nonpoint, Buck Cherry and Hellyeah. He is often a man of few words. When asked what music means to him, the answer is “everything.”

ADAM LIEBERSBACH (lead singer)–  was singing as child a before he could speak. Growing up on classic rock until he found a taste of his own. With inspiration from bands like Slipknot, Korn, Staind, and Deftones, eventually growing into a taste for heavier music like As I Lay Dying, Norma Jean, and Lamb of God. Adam was in every choir class offered in school and went to state with many, many medals to show. During high school he played in a metal band with his closest friends called Mortality Fades, but eventually moved to Omaha Nebraska. There he expanded some of his musical adventures making music with hip hop performer, DJ, and Producer, E Babbs. They made a demo together and called it The Nexstep. Adam would eventually move home to Wisconsin and start a family with his wife Jenelle. After a 9 year hiatus from music the empty space needed to be filled. He reached out to some friends in the music scene. They told him of some auditions they knew about. Adam is absolutely hyped and cannot wait to show the world what Abbadon’s End is going to bring! Music is Home for Adam and has helped him through the darkest of times and he truly cannot wait to pay it forward
