Mission Two Entertainment is thrilled to announce the signing of BRAVE THE COLD to its already powerful lineage of artists. Fronted by longtime Napalm Death member Mitch Harris and Megadeth drummer Dirk Verbeuren, BRAVE THE COLD is a two-piece formed in 2018 as the two metal conglomerates focus their energies into a new level of aggression. The culmination is Scarcity, an eleven track collection of ferociousness breathing much-needed life into the heavy metal scene of 2020. Produced by the legendary Logan Mader (Machine Head, Soulfly), Scarcity is set for release on October 2nd, 2020.

Harris adds, “Mission Two Entertainment progressed to their next phase in the music world and they have been the most inspiring team I’ve ever worked with! They truly believe with heart and soul to push this to the highest level possible as we forge ahead in our forever altered civilization.”

BRAVE THE COLD’s glitchy, byzantine death metal doesn’t just shift gears – it whips, stutters and jumps sideways into heavyweight dimensions. The entire Scarcity theme is a well-researched, scenic debate combining Dystopian views ranging from Anti-Elite, Anti-Media, Anti-Division, Anti-Oppression, End of Days Philosophies, Post-Apocalyptic Poetry, Mind Control, Economic Instability, Educational Infiltration and Global Political Deceit that compromises our spirituality of ONE COLLECTIVE VOICE. This is a global agenda that was a long time coming. It’s a reflection on how government can create urgency out of necessity.

Scarcity hits the world on October 2, 2020.

Big loser release ruby red as charity single for the austin justice coalition!

Austin’s own Big Loser choose not to stand on the sidelines. After the tragic death of George Floyd and the on going displays of police brutality, Big Loser wanted to give back to their community. The band penned a song titled “Ruby Red” and all money from the single will be donated to The Austin Justice Coalition. “In the wake of George Floyd’s death, it became apparent in vividly horrible colors the amount of systemic racism that has been and still is in place in America. Countless black stories were shared via social media along with raw footage of police brutality. Just recently a video was released of an unarmed black man, Jacob Blake, being shot in the back by police in front of his kids. It’s still happening. It’s difficult to not be emotionally affected by all of it, and that’s why we wrote “ruby red,” in hopes to release it and raise some money for a righteous cause. The Austin Justice Coalition is a racial justice group that educates and builds community power for people of color who live in Austin, Texas, that need support, community, and liberation during a time of systemic injustice in America. The issues in America run deep and wide, but we chose to team up with AJC because we believe the fight for justice starts locally and they’re a great organization helping those in need right now.” – Chase D. Spruiell. The release of “Ruby Red” is timed perfectly with the September edition of Bandcamp Friday – the monthly event where Bandcamp waives their revenue share on all sales. Big Loser released Love You, Barely Breathing on Black Numbers earlier this year. 

Bio: 

Big Loser is an American rock band formed by frontman Chase D. Spruiell. Pairing hard hitting lyrics with glistening song arrangements the band has quickly earned a seal of approval in the underground scene. Love You, Barely Living is their Black Numbers debut and everything about it is big. Haunting guitars, roomy drums, and epic sing-along’s set the tone for Chase and the rest of Big Loser to showcase their songwriting skills. Love You, Barely Living plays like a coming of age film where no matter how many times the protagonist falls you just know they are going to be alright in the end.

Pop-punk formation Gearheart is celebrating the release of the band’s brand new full-length record – “Lobotomized” (out today) – with the third single of the said record (after the previously presented and enticing “Don’t Call” and the politically-charged “Fall From Grace”)- the lively and emotionally-induced “Wildflower”! Possessing a level of raw and passion that only a few artists in the genre are able to replicate, “Wildflower” selects a great diversity of influences by taking advantage of the best elements of Gearheart’s talents. The track delivers a monolithic, unique sound with an extra dose of likability, which shows an incredible amount of sincere personality, with the members of the band exhibiting their natural ability to engulf the listener in infectious melodies and continuous integration of thoughtful instrumentation, successfully utilizing vocals, catchy choruses, and thematically focused lyrical content. The whole product is only further strengthened by its respective visual representation, which is responsible for adding a pleasing sense of nostalgia and melancholy to the “Wildflower” experience!

Providing detailed information regarding the influences behind the making of “Wildflower”, Gearheart adds: “This song is about finding the person or thing that you love, where you would least expect it and then the vulnerable feeling that overwhelms you when it’s gone. Someone that helped you find who you really are, someone so amazing that it changes your perspective of life and shows you the light of hope at the end of the tunnel. The video we put together is a love letter to all the fans that we have made and venues that we have played at along the way. Something we all took for granted just 5 months ago, the people we get to meet and the familiar faces every night, disappeared with this pandemic. We miss each and everyone and can’t wait to get to perform for everyone again when all of this is over.”

“Wildflower” is the third single of “Lobotomized” – Gearheart‘s brand new full-length album – now available everywhere!
