VOLUME IV to release new album on Ripple Music in March 2014!


Atlanta’s Volume IV feat. Joe Carpenter of Nihilist have just announced the release of their brandnew album "Long In The Tooth" via Ripple Music, which will be coming out in the US on March 11st and is scheduled to hit the European stores on March 14th of 2014!

With equal parts elegant beauty and steamrolling aggression, Volume IV serve up a piece of ear candy for the ages with "Long In The Tooth". This first release with Ripple Music is a concise thirty-six minute thrill ride of swampy metal heroics, featuring heavy grooves, classic stoner riffs, and an overall impending sense of doom. These boys bring back the old school attitude of musical sensibility, working hard to master your instrument, and taking pride in creating a wide pallet of musical styles: Thunderous drumming locked tight within the pocket, bass guitar providing a dense foundation for the thick guitar and gritty yet melodic vocals that lay on top. In a world where every thing is mechanized, click tracked and auto tuned, Volume IV does it the only way, the honest way, straight from the gut, which is what we need to make music human again and separate the men from the boys.
Individually the members of Volume IV have shared the stage with legendary acts such as Motorhead, Iron Maiden, Danzig, Mastodon, Corrosion Of Conformity and Down just to name a few.Led by singer/guitarist Joe Carpenter and filled out by bassist Blake Parris and drummer Troy King, Volume IV is set to stun the music world with one of the most anticipate releases of the year! 

For Fans of Black Sabbath, Corrosion of Conformity, Orange Goblin, Monster Magnet, Down, Pentagram!

SUNNATA premiere brandnew track + reveal album release date !
--  New record coming out March 2014! --


Founded in 2008 as formerly Satellite Beaver, Warsaw doomsters Sunnata have just revealed a brandnew track from their upcoming full length album "Climbing The Colossus", which will be finally coming out on March 24th 2014!

As Satellite Beaver, the band released three EPs and played some of the biggest central and eastern-european stoner festivals, including Desertfest Berlin, Days Of The Ceremony (PL) or Robustfest (UA), and shared the stages with acts such as Sungrazer, Karma To Burn or Suma. After changing their bandname in the beginning of 2014 and moving into a heavier direction, Sunnata have just premiered a first single called "Asteroid",  which you can check out for free on their Bandcamp now and get an exclusive first taste of their upcoming, hotly anticipated album: 



"Many things have changed since our start in 2008. After three short-length releases and numerous shows we all (finally) agreed to make a step closer to become premium pop-stars. However, the new band name doesn’t imply any line-up or make-up changes. It simply suits our approach to the music, which has become way heavier and trippy in comparison to what we played back in 2008. So here it is. SUNNATA is a soundscape, where noise crossfades clearness –where walls of fuzz, delay and reverb confront the monolith of absolute silence."  explains the band. "We´re excited to finally unveil a first taste of our new sound!"

"Climbing The Colossus" - The new album by Sunnata will be coming out March 24th 2014 - For fans of finest doom, sludge, stoner rock, fuzz trips & heavy riffs!


Tracklist:
1. Orcan
2. Asteroid
3. Seven

A Heavy Rock Legend is back:
LEAF HOUND TO RELEASE "LIVE IN JAPAN" ALBUM IN JANUARY 2014!
Leaf Hound’s “Growers Of Mushroom” album, originally released on Decca in 1971, has over the years become a bona fide worldwide cult classic of the hard rock genre, discovered by each new generation of rock fans. It has been cited as a hugely important album in the evolution of both the Heavy Metal and Stoner Rock genres, much like the first Black Sabbath album. Classic Rock Magazine has raved that “Growers of Mushrooms” is one of the most influential pieces of music on the stoner rock, and the album has gained a reputation as being one of the true lost gems of the early British hard rock scene. Original Decca vinyl copies are one of the most rare collectable rock albums out there with prices soaring above £4,000!

More than 40 years later after the release of that legendary ‘Growers Of Mushroom’ record, after numerous club gigs with acts such as Nazareth, Mountain, Orange Goblin or Witchcraft and festival appearances live at Roadburn, Sweden Rock or Desertfest in London, Leaf Hound are finally back! It was during a sweltering hot Japanese summer of 2012, heavy rock legends Leaf Hound were invited to make their first ever appearance in Tokyo, Japan. These shows were recorded and filmed for a limited release in Japan as a live album and DVD package by Captain Trip records in 2013. Leaf Hound have now teamed up with American label Ripple Music, who will be releasing the Leaf HoundLive In JapanVinyl album and DVD/CD set worldwide in January 2014!



The tracklist of "Live in Japan" will include following legendary Leaf Hound songs such as:

Barricades
Freelance Fiend
Work My Body
Stop, Look And Listen
With A Minute To Go
One Hundred And Five Degrees
Evil

"Live In Japan" by Leaf Hound is set to hit the UK & North American stores on January 13rd, and will be coming out in Europe on January 14th 2014 via Ripple Music / Planetworks Enterprises.

Ripple Music Signs Platinum PR to Spearhead Press and Promotions in Europe & UK!



With its growing roster of internationally-hailed bands, Ripple Music has signed European press relations specialist, Platinum PR to handle its growing demand for European publicity and tour support. 


Ripple Music has been making a big splash in Europe and the U.K.  The California-based heavy rock label has already been recognized as one of the world's leading labels for 70s-tinged retro-heavy rock, and has garnered accolades and appreciation by rock fans for their quality of music and love of both vinyl and CD formats. The recent recipient of a nomination for Independent Record Label of the year in the prestigious TBFM 2013 Industry Awards, several Ripple artists have been making a huge splash in the European scene, touring regularly and playing all the major festivals. Bands like Mos Generator, Ape Machine, Stone Axe are no stranger to European shores, and other Ripple artists, like Trucker Diablo and Grifter are U.K. based and frequent performers on the U.K. and European Festival circuits. Add to that list, the smash success of Texan trio, Mothership, who’ll be hitting Europe this spring, and the need for a full-time press agent in Europe was apparent.

We’re thrilled to have the opportunity to work with Mona and Platinum PR," says Ripple Music´s CEO Todd Severin. "The high quality of the bands that choose to work with her speaks for itself, but most importantly - as a rocker herself - Mona really understand the needs of the heavy music community.  She’s the best choice for us to spread the Ripple brand of heavy rock around the world.”

Engineered and mixed by Jason Groves, 'The End Of Time' will be finally coming out August 30th 2013 via CD Baby, Amazon + iTunes!

The heavy, do-it-yourself, Hamburg based metal band A Million Miles are proud to announce their recent signing with German label Abandon Records for their long awaited debut album 'What's Left Behind' scheduled to hit stores on April 5th, 2013 via New Music Distribution!

After 4 years of heavily touring the metal underground of Europe, A Million Miles signed a publishing deal with Enorm Music, the publishing company of Wacken / ICS in early 2012 and entered the Hammer Studios Hamburg ( Gammy Ray ) with Eike Freese of Dark Age to record their first full-length album.

"It's been a long hard road for us as a band and we're excited about this chapter of A Million Miles with our new album which we've poured our hearts and souls into making. After having played these songs for the last few years on tour, we are looking forward to sharing them on record with all our friends and fans of our band who, like us, have been anxiously awaiting our release. Finding the right home and producer was important for us and it was worth the wait. We're pleased to have signed with Abandon and working with Eike Freese in the studio was an inspiring experience for all of us. He captured the natural beauty & understood our sound, it allowed us to be ourselves and much like we are on stage without over production." said lead vocalist Mona Miluski.
