Katrin The Thrill




Here We have Greek Dark Indie band.
Katrin the Thrill, from Athens Greece.
Well this is interesting cause this is the land you could be familiar with. When hords of tourists invade islands,
make sure to be among them. Dark sound could be something that Greek alternative culture leanning to recently, and
Katrin is not an exception.They have edge of PJ Harvey, But with very much Greek Gothic Approach, Guitars Sonic driven Harsh and psychedelic,
Earth Is Calling Us, come up as strongest number on This EP, With a lead that could have some roots in "4 Horsemen" legend.
Her Story is emotional, but with dark punch, and driving New Wave hooks with rolling monotonic bass to keep you, flowing in the river of
Post Punk Revenge.
So Music fans Check This Cool Band Love Them on Facebook, And go check their gigs it's worth it.

Pause MC




Pause MC

is LA-Venice local and multifaceted artist. He's real name is Daniel Kushnir.
"Pause" recently  has won Hip-Hop Song of the Year for his song "Caroline". It's Songoftheyear.com's international songwriting contest.
"There Must be some kind of way out of here", is kick off start for Pause MC, taking this Dylan or if you like Hendrix ( He covered it), Hook to whole new world.
While East Coast hip hop has been characterized for by multi-syllabic rhymes and know for its emphasis on lyrical dexterity, Pause is channeling the spirit of the '90s North California rap in which e grew up. Meaning huge brassy beats, funky low-end, and a tuneful, conscious-style flow
Also he did mixed this style with psych inputs and repeating chorus.That brought Pause MC into new world of Hip Hip with ambiance.
His Album PACIFIC ROSE also features some famous collaborators from LA underground scene.Double K from People Under the Stairs, who helped in polishing this album to be ready for major marketing and distribution channels.

It's nicely produced and cool Positive Hip Hop album , that you can play and repeat to everyone.

Silence Donegood - Granola Kids


Silence DoneGood - Granola Kids
Do We Need New Noize Pop Revoloution!?
Yeah, No, Maybe, It is not here yet! But...
This guys are on the way to something. Despite the fact that sound is Low Quality, probably recorded using Granp-a's old Radio.
What really strikes is Melody and Lyrics that trying to make you thinking! Even You think that you gonna be stuck with Emo all your life, and there's no exit.
Silence Dogodood Will show you In their Fuzzy Pop way, that there's a light at the end of tunnel and slide you to the other side, where everything makes more sense.They sing about broken society calling Kurt Cobain to come and rescue them.
This song have traces and it could be reminiscence of some Manchester Bands of heroic era of New Wave Brit Pop
And Don't forget they coming from Detroit is whole different scene. So, folks let’s support this and give some encouragement to Silence Donegood come out with full album one day. Yeah and to do some live gigs that's where they gonna craft their skills.

Countless Thousands - We're Just Really Excited To Be Here



Countless Thousands,Is band from Garden Grove, CA,With Danger Van Gorder guitar and vocals, Davey Munch on bass, and Jon David on 
drums.
I got a chance to listen to their new album "We're Just Really Excited To Be Here".
Band is playing regionally and somewhat Nationally promoting their new album.
This band belong to Modern Punk- Emo scene but with a sight difference that their music is flavored with, Strong Rock-Funky hooks,
So meaning that can apply to different sort of audiencess, it's really plus point for marketing and getting fans in the venues.
While you enjoy Pumpimg guitar riffs that would storm your favorite Indie Club, be also ready for some Radiohead psych breaks  (A Pirate's Shanty).
Well, for all  indie acoustic fans,  Acoustic side is also covered, more like Incubus walking to Offspring , but missing big Sing-a-long chorus, I guess if it's made for that at all.
I guess Strongest bet this band is basically Rockin Funk-Punk hooks, that can drive any crowd from any Dive bar to Arena Setting.
You can check Countless Thousands on Facebook

and also buy their music there.
