German rock trio Untamed release first full-length album via “Hicktown-Records“

Untamed! With their self titled hard rock debut album, the full-power trio promises aggressive sounds and energetic rock ballads. Versatile, multifaceted and catchy. That is what makes Untamed so special. Lyrically, the 10 songs move between the “fun of life” and the “rock n’ roll lifestyle”. But the band also talks about more serious topics such as grief and love.

These are all personal matters of the guys, which they process on the album with a bit of joke, passionate emotions and honest feelings. Untamed wants to bring the most diverse people together and let them rock.

The panther on the album cover stands for the dangerous and aggressive sound, the album name, the color black, cunning elegance, as well as the origin of the 3 guys.

For the high-end production with their label “Hicktown-Records“, the band went into studio recordings for 3 weeks. It took a lot of time, hard work and sleepless nights in advance, to have a precisely conception and to set the first big milestone of Untamed. Through the production, the band hopes to become an international rock act.

Feel the spirit as UNTAMED channels the energy of grunge’s golden days and the rebelliousness of nu metal. They deliver an explosive mix that’s impossible to ignore, leaving listeners craving more.

Frontman Nigel’s vocal versatility shines through, from soulful power ballads like “Can You Hear Me” to the rebellious anthem “Sex Tape” or the successful single “Take Me To Paradise”, addressing people with drug problems. His expressive and convincing delivery takes listeners on a journey through love, rebellion, and everything in between.

UNTAMED prioritizes impact over flashy skills, crafting tunes that are not just catchy but emotionally charged and relatable. The trio’s profound understanding of diverse influences results in tracks that stick in your mind, showcasing a true mastery of their craft.

German Shoegaze/Psychedelic Rock act Screaming Bones release 3 full length albums

Leave a comment

Screaming Bones is back! Just before the end of 2023, Screaming Bones self-releases a ton of new music with a triple feature. The albums have been developed throughout the year and have now been released on all the major streaming services as well as Screaming Bones’ Bandcamp site https://screamingbones.bandcamp.com/music

Screaming Bones’ music exists to take your head onto a sonic journey into the unknown. The sound is unique and sometimes clashes with your worn-out and beloved listening patterns. But as you take your time and follow the sounds, these gems of wonderful music will unfold in your ears and in your mind, revealing their timeless beauty.

The album ‘Tales From The Outer Rings‘ is the most experimental of the three releases. It starts off with the ambient ‚Broken Spaceship‘. Crash on a far-away planet and feel the alien sun burn up your skin. Your radio sends out warbled help signals but all you get back are responses in a language you never heard before. The album sees you off with an alternative, a bit noisier. Listen here: https://open.spotify.com/intl-pt/album/21W7af7LA6IsZ1WLTop26U

The album ‘Screaming Bones‘ opens with ‚Here Come the Waves‘, gigantic waves of sound carry a fragile guitar all the way into your ears. ‚March of the Morons‘ stands for all the idiots following their arsehole leaders and their lies, shouting ‚Hooray!‘ while the world goes to hell. Listen here: https://open.spotify.com/intl-pt/album/6KzjL4kWo3Gywe1Fh0vsGX

The album ‘I think I’m OK‘ starts with ‚The Essence of Cool‘ and ‚Electric Feel‘, both crackling with electric guitar energy. ‚I think I’m OK‘ will be the companion for next spring while ‚Bar Life‘ makes you want to grab the sounds through a haze of cigarette smoke in a worn-down bar. ‚Chillin‘ on a Sunday Afternoon‘ is an interlude before you go on the epic ‚Road Trip‘ with its monotonous hammering bass. Listen on headphones to enjoy the full effects. Listen here: https://open.spotify.com/intl-pt/album/2RlZnWnAFP8DYKbFA0SdxY
