Leave a comment

“Echos” music video is the latest release from SALVATION, a Punk Rock/Pop Rock quartet from Marseille/France. A 13-track album is currently in production, along with a debut video.

With a powerful and deceptively simplistic Punk Rock sound, with very structured titles with a very pop rendering, sprinkled with vocal harmonies for 3 voices, SALVATION is influenced by bands like Green Day, Blink 182, NOFX, Simple Plan, Sum 41.

SALVATION is formed by William RAZZA and Pierre-Emmanuel TOUCHARD guitarists/vocals (1st part by Dagoba, Anti Flag, Justine, Mute). Loïc MICHAUD joins the group as bassist/chorus player after 3 years of touring Europe with the group No Perfect in the first part of Uncommonmenfrommars. His bass playing and vocal harmonies brought melodies and power to SALVATION. Martin VENTURINI (drummer) joins the adventure and brings even more energy and dynamism to SALVATION!

(review) Zebrahead – III

Leave a comment

Zebrahead have been around for a long time, delivering their vision of rap mixed with skate punk, pop punk and metal influenced guitar work. I was supposed to check them out live at 2020 Punk Rock Holiday but due to known reasons that didnt happen, so I hope to catch them somewhere on tour in Europe in 2022. In the meantime, they delivered new e.p. containing five songs. My personal favorite is A Long Way Down, also Homesick for Hope is superb too. Everyone who checked their last two full lengths will know what I mean when I say that they continued their path musically like those two records, meaning a mixture of punk rock, metallic guitar riffs, some rap, pop punk and above all, great songwriting. Go get this one and have a listen!

(review) Miss Vincent – A Funeral For Youth

Leave a comment

Miss Vincent released their debut album and it is a blast! This is pop punk/melodic punk rock par excellence. Many bands play this kind of music, but not many manage to write excellent songs and make an album without a filler. Well, Miss Vincent are, besides Hangtime from Canada my favorites in this genre. These bunch of songs contain perfect melodies, backing vocal harmonies, emotions that make your skin crawl with goosebumps and make you sing along and listen again. I love how doo wop influences are incorporated into some of the songs like Go It Alone and Vials. It is really hard to select songs that could stand out as my favorites because every song is that, but I will try: Melanie, My Iron Heart, Heresy. Go and discover this band you will not regret it.
