Smile Empty Soul Release New Single “Violence” via

Alt-rock veterans Smile Empty Soul have unveiled the fifth single, “Violence” from their upcoming EP, Swan Song, which is scheduled for release digitally on 2/28/25 and on vinyl/CD 4/11/25 through TLG|ZOID distributed by Virgin Music Group. The band’s previous four singles have been met with an overwhelmingly positive response, building excitement for the upcoming release.

“‘Violence’ is a song about the many toxic relationships that occur in our society. They seem to be everywhere, be it in the home, the streets, or even the relationship between the people and the government. It’s inescapable,” says Sean Danielsen.

The song was written and produced by Sean Danielsen, engineered by Brian Scheffer, mixed and mastered by Eddie Wohl.

SMILE EMPTY SOUL is a hard rock band that originated in Los Angeles, CA in the late 1990’s and has stayed true to their brand of “no bullshit”, “real as it gets” hard rock to this day. The band signed a major label record deal in 2003 to release their self-titled debut album in May of that year. They realized huge success at alternative radio, rock radio, and the music video channels that have since fallen by the wayside or turned into reality show networks.

After 3 very successful singles/videos and a gold record from the debut release, the band ran into trouble with their record company (which was in the midst of turmoil at the top levels) and found themselves working extra hard in the trenches, and signed to indie labels or no label at all from then on.

This would become SMILE EMPTY SOUL’s destiny, as they have gone on to release many more albums and EP’s on various labels, as well as their own company “smile empty music inc”. The band released their 9th full length record Black Pilled on October 12th of 2021 completely on their own.

“Smile” has become known for its constant touring and never wavering honest sound/lyrics. They’ve never changed for anybody, and turned down many opportunities to “sell out” because it’s not who they are.

With a new album, and just as much drive as they had starting out 20 years ago, this band looks to continue to build on the legacy they’ve created as one of the hardest working, and most underrated bands in rock and roll.

The band has recently partnered with TLG|ZOID distributed by Virgin Music Group to release new music. Denny Sanders (The Label Group) and Sean Danielsen previously partnered on the successful release of Consciousness. Released in 2009 the record has become second only to the band’s debut release in popularity.

Interview with The Kyle Jordan Project

Posted on December 23, 2024December 23, 2024 by Brien Mitchum

Read Time:3 Minute, 37 Second

Interview With the Kyle Jordan Project

1. What’s the name of the band?

We’re called The Kyle Jordan Project. Pretty straightforward—it started with me, Kyle, and then
grew into this collaborative beast of a band. I still take on the role as the executive producer –
similar to Mark Ronson, DJ Kahled, or Alan Parsons.

2. Where are you from?

I’m from Victoria, B.C., but the band is spread out a bit. This makes the recording process a bit
more remote, but it works for us. Playing live and touring just means a bit of extra planning.

3. What type of music do you play?

We’re modern rock with a twist. Think heavy guitar-driven sound, but we mix in elements of folk,
blues, and Americana. It's like if Imagine Dragons, The Glorious Sons, and 21 Pilots had a jam
session and invited some old-school roots vibes to the party.

4. Introduce yourselves to the readers and tell us what you do in the band.

I’m Kyle Jordan May—I handle songwriting, producing, drums, some of the guitars, and
occasional vocals. Greg Van Kerkhof is my right-hand guy, working on songwriting and bass.
Then there’s Erick Gerber, my other right-hand guy, he’s a creative powerhouse in the writing
and producing department. He’s also the best guitar player I have ever met.

5. This is probably a common question but one that most want to know, what musical
influences did you have growing up, and what are some now?

Growing up, it was my Dad’s music like: Janis Joplin, Zeppelin, The Stones, Nickelback, April
Wine, Green Day (Amazing that my Dad was a Green Day fan before me) and of course Three
Dog Night. My mom was a Christian recording artist, so I had that gospel and worship influence
too: Ken Holloway, Chris Tomlin, etc. Nowadays, I’m digging artists like Noah Kahan, Greta Van
Fleet, The Pretty Reckless, Maneskin and even some blues-inspired stuff. It’s all over the
place—good music is good music.

6. Have you always been into music? Was it something that just came to you naturally?

Music’s always been part of my life. I was playing drums in church as a kid, then transitioned
into bars when I got older. It felt natural, but it’s also something I worked hard at. Music was my
outlet, especially when life got heavy—like dealing with a brain tumor. It became a way to process everything.

7. What can we expect from the band in the rest of 2024 and beyond into 2025?

We’re building momentum! Our latest single, Demons, just dropped, and it’s all about
struggles—whether they’re inner or external. After that, we’ve got more singles lined up: Like “Tall Blonde Honey” slated for release on January 21 st , 2025. A tour in 2026 is also in the works. We’re all about connecting with people, whether it’s through a song, a live show, or both.

8. For someone who wants to know more about the band, where can they find you at? And where can they find your music?

We’re on all the usual spots—Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube, Amazing Radio, you name it. Just search The Kyle Jordan Project. Follow us on socials too; we’re always posting updates, behind-the-scenes stuff, and whatever random thing pops into our heads.

9. Let’s answer some fun questions, what is your all-time favorite band?

Man, that’s tough. If I had to pick one, probably Zeppelin. They’re untouchable. I’m also a big fan or The Pretty Restless, 21 Pilots, The Glorious Sons and Maneskin. If we ever had the chance to collaborate with Jessie Murph, Courtney Hadwin, or Jelly Roll I’d jump at it!

10. If you could tour with any band and open or have them open for you, who would you choose?

Imagine opening for The Glorious Sons—that would be insane. Or maybe doing a co-headliner with someone like Imagine Dragons. Either way, it’d be epic.

Thanks for chatting with me, From the Green Room. Looking forward to doing this again
sometime soon!

SoftWave Releases “Will it ever be Christmas”

Posted on December 23, 2024December 23, 2024 by Brien Mitchum

Read Time:2 Minute, 39 Second

SoftWave Releases “Will it ever be Christmas”

About the Xmas single…
2 years ago, SoftWave released their first ever Christmas song, ‘Will It Ever Be Christmas Again?’. It is probably the first time in Danish music history that a Danish Christmas synth-pop song has been released.

Leading up to the completion of their 2nd album “things we’ve done” which won silver at ISSA AWARDS 2024 in Atlanta, Jerry Olsen (SoftWave’s producer) sat in the studio and played with a bell sound, which captured him so much that it unintentionally ended up with the creation of SoftWave’s first Christmas song! With less than 2 months until December 1st, they chose to co-write with a former collaboration partner from Great Britain, Barney Ashton-Bullock.

He is a playwright, poet and
librettist in the project ‘Andy Bell is Torsten’ alongside Erasure’s Andy Bell (see p.3). Barney has previously invited SoftWave to produce 2 remixes for Andy Bell’s sold-out LP (‘Club Torsten’) which ended up on the UK OFFICIAL ALBUM CHARTS in the good company of Vince Clarke (founder of Erasure, Yazoo, Depeche Mode).

SoftWave are known for their uplifting electronic pop music that is inspired by classic English synth- pop with its prominent synthesiser sounds. In this Christmas song, SoftWave’s singer (Catrine Christensen) chose to duet with Barney, who also wrote the lyrics. Together they created the ultimate and most beautiful Christmas atmosphere, seasoned with Jerry’s delicious production and jingle bell sounds.

”
Jerry & Catrine deliver a sparkling glitter wrapped present for our delight, Catrine’s beautiful vocal overlays Jerry’s sublime backing, it’s a brand new song yet the feel of it seems to make you believe it’s a Christmas staple, welcoming & familiar, as if it’s been around forever. And then Barney’s vocal kicks in, bringing a whole new dimension.

”– Erasure4rum.com

SoftWave (bio)

SoftWave is a Danish synth-pop duo, established in 2014 by singer Catrine Christensen and producer
Jerry Olsen without any musical background. Their big visions, uplifting sound and catchy chorus
have taken them far. They have been recognised by great synth pioneers such as OMD, Andy Bell
(Erasure), Chris Payne (ex Visage), Ian Burden (ex Human League) and others.
“
SoftWave made two all new ‘Electro-Noir’ style remixes for my ‘Club Torsten!’ album and I loved
their strong retro inspired synth melodies the first time I heard them and the way Catrine’s vocals

weave in and out so deftly is just gorgeous!.
”

Andy Bell, Erasure

SoftWave’s career started with the review of one of their demos in the Danish music magazine
GAFFA. After the release of the debut album ‘Game On’ (2019), it really took off with chart
positions, concerts and radio airplay both at home and abroad (DR P4 etc.).

“
There’s a bit of Erasure about this SoftWave song, Something Is Missing.”

P4 AFTEN, Danmarks Radio

SoftWave are kicking off 2025 by visiting the UK again! They’ve been nominated as BEST ELECTRO ACT at the Radio Wigwam Awards 2025! You can vote for the band, once a day right here: https://radiowigwam.co.uk/awards_voting/ and tickets can be found here: https://www.trybooking.com/uk/events/landing/71844

Saliva knocks acoustic set out of the park at Podcasts & Pours 4

Saliva knocks acoustic set out of the park at Podcast & Pours 4

Podcast and Pour’s 4 kicked off at the Elixir in downtown Orlando, and From the Green Room was live on location catch it. The show featured podcast the BS Podcast, aka Jason Bailey a radio personality that had spent close to 20 years in the Orlando at WJJR rock station, who has recently come back the Orlando area. The BS Podcast now a syndicated show and is featured on WJJR and they replay a condensed version on Saturdays, this being the fourth Podcast & Pours he wanted to book a national band, and Saliva came to mind as a great act to book for this event. In support Jason Bailey also brought along longtime friends of the show Distinct Grace, along with a special appearance by local Orlando artist Riley Resa.

The show kicked off with some podcast shenanigan’s hosted by none other than Jason Bailey of the BS Podcast, and also with long time show guest members of Distinct Grace, then Distinct Grace would open up the musical portion with some originals and some covers with an acoustic set, along with a special appearance from Riley Resa who would perform about 4-5 songs. The set would conclude, and the headliner would come out.

Saliva would take the stage to perform their acoustic set, for a band that does not do acoustic sets a lot, nor did they rehearse they killed it. With a mix of covers from Alice in Chains, Phil Collins and others, along with some of their hits and even a few rare songs that are not heard during live performances in a few years. Saliva even opened the show with an acoustic version of “ladies and Gentleman” mixed in a few other songs that you would not expect to hear acoustically but were glad you got a chance to, and few kick ass mashups. For not doing a lot of acoustic sets, Saliva kicked ass on this show, if you get the opportunity to catch Saliva perform an acoustic set don’t miss it.

DRUSUNA – BEYOND THE GREEN REALM

Posted on December 8, 2024December 8, 2024 by Brien Mitchum

Read Time:1 Minute, 58 Second

DRUSUNA – BEYOND THE GREEN REALM

‘Beyond the Green Realm’ is the highly anticipated second album from Pagan Folk band, Drusuna
(Portugal). Embark on a journey to uncover ancestral roots long forgotten, woven into the secret
language of the forest. A tale of a distant past that still breathes, waiting to be heard by those who
care to listen closely within the serene embrace of the green realm. Here, among the solitude of
towering trees, the air hums with the enchantment of mystery and magic, beckoning us deeper into

the woodland's hidden depths.

Drusuna creates Ritual Pagan Folk music as described in this self-penned quotation: “The connection
to the mother earth is what we pursue through our music. Shamanism is presented in our concept as
a link to the ancestral roots to which we belong. The modern world has reached a level where people
have almost lost their connection with nature. Humans are using and have abused the planet to the
point of no return! Despite their intelligence and technology, most of them are not able to raise their
consciousness to a level high enough to hear the planet’s grief, because they are full of arrogance
and greed. It is urgent to find once again the missing link and connect with nature once
more…Drusuna intend to spread this message through their music. Ritual Pagan Folk music!”
With such a poetic introduction, it is without doubt that Drusuna offer a special listening
experience. Drusuna is a Pagan Folk Band from Gallaecia (Northern Portugal). The roots of the
Drusuna project began in 2009 with Sephirus and brother Alvahagal. The initial idea was to create
primitive sounds with only organic ethnic musical instruments made from wood, stones, and other
natural elements. The main idea was to build something directly from the roots of the earth,
because the call of nature was the driving force behind each project. After two years of productive
rehearsals came the concept of their debut album, ‘Kaytos Kom’ (2016). Drusuna left the forest and
hit the stage in 2016 at Oestrymnis folk festival, Ponte da Barcacelt folk festival and other stages
throughout Portugal. In summer 2017, Drusuna signed with Friendly Folk Records and March/2018

found the release of ‘Kaytos Kom’ in a digital and physical format. Their singles, ‘Spirits of Ancient
Trees’ (July/2020), ‘Solitary Woods’ (March/2021) and ‘The Eldon Grove’ (Sept/2022) pave the way

for their brand-new album ‘Beyond The Green Realm’!

LUNA KILLS Announce New Album “DEATHMATCH”

Posted on December 4, 2024December 8, 2024 by Brien Mitchum

Read Time:2 Minute, 44 Second

LUNA KILLS ANNOUNCE DEBUT ALBUM DEATHMATCH

BAND SHARES VIDEO FOR NEW SINGLE “SUGAR RUSH”

Rising Finnish alt-metal force LUNA KILLS are making waves with the announcement of theird ebut album DEATHMATCH, set for a worldwide release on April 4 via SharpTone Records. DEATHMATCH is a powerful collision of vulnerability and aggression that captures the chaos and conflict within the mind with unflinching honesty. The album’s raw and electrifying tracks delve into the complexities of mental health and the longing for escapism.

Following the success of their crushing debut single “slay ur enemies,” LUNA KILLS are keeping the momentum alive with the release of their second single, “sugar rush.” The electrifying track balances ferocious riffs with haunting melodies, capturing the exhilarating highs and devastating lows of chasing fleeting thrills.

The band explains, “‘sugar rush’ captures the drive to pursue happiness in the face of persistent self-doubt. Centered around the struggle to find happiness despite a constant sense of never measuring up, the song delves into the pressures of a world that demands overachievement and monetization of everything, ultimately draining the joy from passions that once gave life meaning.”

Reflecting on the song’s creation, the band adds, “At the time, before we started writing ‘sugar rush,’ we had been working on other songs for a long period of time and we felt really exhausted and after multiple failed attempts of trying to force ourselves to focus, we felt that we needed to reset our brain and mindset. ‘sugar rush’ became a powerful outlet for all that we were going through, a way to channel exhaustion and frustration with the pressures of perfectionism and constant productivity. The creative process itself almost became a form of catharsis, a reset, allowing us to confront those feelings directly and then transform them into something meaningful.”

LUNA KILLS have also revealed an exciting lineup of tour dates and festival appearances, starting with select shows in Finland and culminating in an album release show on April 5, 2025, at On The Rocks in Helsinki. They’ll hit the stage both as headliners and in support of notable acts such as Blind Channel and Warmen, bringing their ferocious live energy to fans across Europe.

DEATHMATCH TRACK LISTING:
“love u”
“LEECH”
“SADIST”
“sugar rush”
“slay ur enemies“
“hallucinate”
“WAVES”
“get mad”
“burn the world with me”
“fever dream”

ABOUT LUNA KILLS:
LUNA KILLS are, without a doubt, one of the most refreshing modern metal act in the scene, combining alternative and nu-metal vibes with electronics inspired by game soundtracks. Their frontwoman Lotta, with her jazz singing background and incredible fry scream vocals, brings the audience to their knees — unless they are speeding around in moshpits, as often witnessed in their fiery live shows. Even as newcomers, LUNA KILLS have already opened the door to their beloved gaming world as their music is featured in the hit mobile app Beatstar. The band, first formed in 2019, has now taken their first steps on European stages, gained the attention of multiple rock radios in their native Finland and are moving forward towards their first full-length album with SharpTone Records.

LUNA KILLS ARE:
Lotta Ruutiainen — Vocals

MELON KALI’Flagship’

Posted on November 29, 2024December 14, 2024 by Brien Mitchum

Read Time:2 Minute, 3 Second

MELON KALI 'Flagship’

Ahead of the release of their upcoming, energetic new single ‘Flagship’ the band uncover how it
came together “We did a writer’s camp with the band, and normally we jam together and record that
so we can work that out later. This time, we wanted to try something else. Everybody came up with a
word and Vivian made the lyrics out of that with melody in a separate room. Then we came back
together again and she sang the chorus of ‘Flagship’, and the rest followed. The band immediately

had a vibe and idea which fitted perfectly for the song.”

On the important meaning behind the track, Melon Kali explain how ‘Flagship’ is “about an
outstanding woman in the club. She inspires all the other people in the room to dance but nobody
dares to come near her. She is the one everyone is looking up to. This song is a nod to female

empowerment, we treat all women like flagships.”

Melon Kali are a Dutch group, featuring singer Vivian Tarmidi and producer/bassist Marc Sokpolie.
They had been making songs in a self-wrought style on the fringes of R&B and Boogie Funk, which

they wanted to hear more of, but it didn't seem to exist yet. Their first single ‘Insane’ was released in

2016 and it was immediately picked up by multiple Spotify playlists.

Their first album ‘888 Fears’ came out in 2023, which is when they played their first live show in
Amsterdam. Since then, the group has grown to a power quintet, with Stan de Kwaadsteniet on keys,
Davy Henket on drums and Lévy Simon on guitar. The band is heavily influenced by the likes of
Stevie Wonder, Prince, Sly Stone, but also Victoria Monét, Cleo Sol, Anderson. Paak & The Free

Nationals and The Internet.

Songs spring to life in the group’s extended writer camps, where all the members experiment in the
Boogie Funk laboratory. Following ‘Flagship’, in the new year Melon Kali will unleash a fresh new
album called ‘Lilac & Lime Green’. Filled with carefully sourced R&B, soul, funk, and emotion, the
first singles from this new effort, ‘If You Only Knew’ and ‘Flower Fields’ have been well received.
Their new single ‘Flagship’ will leave its listener instantly wanting more from the band, and on
January 29th 2025, Melon Kali will appease that request with the release of ‘Lilac & Lime Green’!

TSS Share “DEAD!” (Feat. CVLTE) Video

Posted on November 23, 2024November 24, 2024 by Brien Mitchum

Read Time:2 Minute, 24 Second

TSS Share "DEAD!" (Feat. CVLTE) Video

FRENCH METAL BAND TSS (FORMERLY THE SUNDAY SADNESS) SHARE VIDEO FOR “DEAD!”(FEAT. CVLTE)

FEARLESS RECORDS recently welcomed French metal alchemists TSS (formerly The Sunday Sadness) to the label’s global roster.

The band has steadily built a reputation with its innovative blend of emo, metalcore, alternative rock, and synthwave. They’ve recently added elements of phonk and neo-metal to their sonic blend. The band was founded in 2016 by Kirby, who sought to combine his emo and metalcore roots into a fresh new sound. The band quickly solidified its lineup with John on guitar and vocals, and Hugo on Drums.

TSS bring the synths and the riffs on their new song “DEAD,” featuring Japanese group CVLTE. The song gets an added dose of heat from the layered vocals and lyrics which are partially sung in the band’s native French language. All of these elements make for a truly cross-cultural metalcore anthem that cycles through multiple moods and tempos, as well as different genres, like pop and nu metal, in the space of a few minutes. The guitars have infinite girth, while the catchy chorus “I’m addicted to the pain” will wrap around your cerebral cortex and stay there. The quiet-loud dynamics and the industrial crunch that defines the closing breakdown are as explosive as it gets. TSS will take you to plenty of musical spaces and places on “DEAD.”

“Our new single, ‘DEAD!,’ marks a turning point for us,” the band states. “After years of mutually admiring each other’s work and wanting to evolve the emo scene on our respective continents, we’ve finally joined forces with the Japanese band CVLTE. Since 2019, we’ve been exchanging, sharing our inspirations and visions for the future of the genre.”

TSS further say, “‘DEAD!’ is the fruit of this unique collaboration: a song that blurs boundaries, fusing our influences and musical identities to redefine what alternative rock music can be today. This collaboration goes beyond music; it represents the union of two worlds passionate about alternative genre, fueled by two different cultures.”

Regarding the accompanying video, the band says, “Shooting the video here in Europe, with [singer] Aviel by our side, was a powerful experience, symbolizing the culmination of several years of connection and creation. The result of this teamwork is DEAD! A powerfull hit radio song about toxic relationships, that mixes trap, metalcore, and cloud rap. In addition to the music, we have forged a strong friend relationship with CVLTE. This collaboration is just the beginning of long series of other featuring between the two bands.”

It follows “Killing Me,” their debut single for their new label. The visual is inspired by The Matrix and ’00s-era horror films, and it will transport you to the glory days of aughts art.

Freemoor Shares Soulful Rock Song “Affliction”

Posted on November 23, 2024November 23, 2024 by Brien Mitchum

Read Time:2 Minute, 9 Second

Freemoor Shares Soulful Rock Song "Affliction"

as Vegas based Rock artist Freemoor is sharing his soulful new song “Affliction”. The track was produced by noted session guitarist and producer Adrian Andres (Cirque Du Soleil, Maeve) at Mouse Trap Studios in Toronto, Canada. Freemoor will be debuting the song live in Los Angeles at the Viper Room on Tuesday, 11/19.

“Affliction” is an homage to the unfortunate demise of creative people who have succumbed to their demons, and left this world at a young age and far too soon. It combines a powerful, soulful vibe with an edgy rock sound – it’s a mix of Bad Company meets Lenny Kravitz, with a dose of Gary Clark Jr. The song has an earworm, driving rhythm with bombastic guitars throughout, buoyed by bluesy, intensely soulful vocals.

Freemoor says “There are so many legendary stories regarding the unfortunate demise of many divinely talented people who have graced this earth – only to succumb to their demons and leave far too soon. “Affliction” is a tribute to these unique individuals – but also acknowledges everyday people who deal with and suffer from various maladies of the mind and soul. From Amy Winehouse to Marilyn Monroe, to more recently Liam Payne – many true and untrue stories are told about these people. They are blamed for things they were not wholly their fault and not recognized for their disease and are unjustly maligned”.

About Freemoor:

Freemoor is an Las Vegas based Rock artist who has an eclectic, soulful vibe. The talented bassist and drummer has influences ranging from Prince to Queen, Lenny Kravitz and Seal, to David Bowie and Chris Cornell. His music is a nod to the past while being thoroughly modern. He leads you through a thoughtful journey and fills you with three minutes of various emotions while giving the listener an electric charge. His tag line is “Free to do moor” – he encourages people to be their best authentic selves. Follow your own path and be comfortable with yourself, no matter who you are. That message shines through in his music.

Freemoor has previously released several singles, including “Shine” (2024); Jump N (2020); Confess (2019); Alive (2019) and a cover of the classic Cream Song “Sunshine Of Your Love”. He is in the process of finishing up his debut album, which is slated to be released in the spring of 2025. Tour dates are being booked to coincide with the album release.
