The video for the first single “American Beauty” can be viewed at this location: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bjamn25sv_Y Jawbreaker has taken the bands love for electronics, beats, rhythmic rap, alternative sounds, guitars, a lot of low end, big chorus’s, clever and honest lyrics, and created an experience of ups and downs. Krsy Fox has always talked about her intense passion for dark cult 90’s movies like The Craft, Jawbreaker, Foxfire, Girl Interrupted, and American Beauty. She wanted to capture the feeling those films gave her as a young girl within the new album. “They always effected what has inspired me and the way I looked at visuals and excepted my crazy girl feelings, and my always being a bit of an outsider, even though I’m usually the loudest person in the room” states Krsy....

Convey is an alternative post rock band based out of Los Angeles, CA, but originally from Boston who formed back in 2009, but have only just unveiled their first official release with single, 'Nothing But A Love Song'...luckily for us. They have a vast collection of influences helping them to create their own driving and fresh sound, including Muse, Tool, Deftones and Queens Of The Stone Age. The long wait has paid off for the band, as this debut is extremely melodic, beautiful and powerful, with hard hitting vocals and bouncy groovy riffs, all wrapped up in perfect production and complimenting ambient and atmospheric tones throughout. They have hit the mark, as you are instantly hooked and captivated from the start to finish, with a song that the masses should 'love'. Check out the single for yourself:  https://soundcloud.com/convey/nothing-but-a-love-song Fortunately we don't have to wait long to hear more from this exciting ban...

I kissed the sun at its fiery height. I waged war with the Nightmare Kings, I sinned with the opalescent women in the roaring seas of poetry...

WEAK13 frontman Nick J Townsend is heading off to LA in September to promote the bands latest single, 'Joke' in which the video to accompany it sees the three-piece grunge rock outfit create a replica of the White House press room for the video, starring frontman Nick as president of the USA, which was filmed at Wolverhampton's Lighthouse Centre and Stourbridge recording studio Base Studios in Rufford Road by indie production company 57 Studio. The band are known for their strange thought provoking videos, which i n the past have featured frontman Nick Townsend dressed entirely in newspaper in 'Prouder Than U 2' and even a massive budget mini movie style video inspired by World War 1 trench raid with 'Wakedown' which won the award for ‘Best music video’ in the London Limelight Film & Arts awards (2010).
