Speaking about his contributions as producer on 'Blame', and performing "Black Swan" live, Orlando shares:

"It was an absolute pleasure working with Who on Earth on their debut album 'BLAME' as producer, engineer, mixing/mastering AND guest guitarist. Jumping onstage to close out the record release show with Black Swan was an absolute blast. I look forward to having these guys back down at Sonic Stomp Studios for their next record. Great guys, great tunes. Who on Earth, you gotta check it out...you just gotta!"

WHO ON EARTH Release Music Video for New Single "The Price"

WHO ON EARTH continue to live by their "Rock's Not Dead" creed, and are back with a new music video for “The Price”! The latest single from the New Jersey rockers (off their debut album, 'Blame') is a hard-driving song, replete with its tasty intro and foot-stomping verses, ultimately setting the table for the powerful chorus delivered by the booming vocals of lead singer Coosh. The track breaks into a musical interlude of thundering war drums, flare-launching guitar shrills, and a solo that narrates the pain of paying the price for “sins of the past.”

Bassist Pete Rizzi explains, “The Price is a reminder that our actions have consequences, and the past has a way of catching up with us. You can run but you can’t hide.  We can sit idly by or put things off, but eventually, we have to face the music - whether that’s individually or as a society. Who will step up and do something before it’s too late?”

Coosh adds, “This is a no-holds-bar song that immediately grabs you by the shirt and screams in your face 'YOU’VE GOT TO LISTEN TO ME!' Haha. You can whistle past the graveyard for only so long before reality introduces itself, the consequences of our actions, or inaction…the bill comes due!”

WHO ON EARTH Partner with Metal Insider for Early Album Stream of 'Blame'

New Jersey hard rock quartet WHO ON EARTH have partnered with Metal Insider for an early stream of their debut album, 'Blame', which will see a worldwide release tomorrow. Fans can check out the full LP on Metal Insider via the link found here.

The band comments: "The wait is over, and 'Blame' is finally here! A triumphant return to the fist-pumping, guitar-screaming, chorus-shouting music of years ago, revitalized with a modern sound that trumpets the return of melodic power groove that's been lost along the way. This album didn't take weeks, months, or years to make - it took decades, and the timing couldn't be better."

To celebrate the release of 'Blame', Who On Earth is thrilled to announce two upcoming shows in November.

The band will play at The Delancey in NYC next Friday (11/4), and on November 26 they will have their official Record Release Party at Starland Ballroom in Sayreville, NJ - opening for classic hard rockers Zebra!

11/4 - New York, NY @ The Delancey *DETAILS*

IMMERSER Releases Official Music Video for "Blame"

Hard Rock solo project IMMERSER (John Logan Parsons III*) has released the official music video for his newest single, "Blame." Blending heavy guitar rhythms with a driving percussion, "Blame" showcases the multitalented artist's heavy rock and alternative influences while spotlighting gothic-punk instrumentation and vocal performance.

“'Blame' is the product of channeling all the angst and grunge of the 90s. It’s a reminder of a time when we could say what we wanted, do what we wanted, think what we wanted. An era when authentic art and music were at the forefront. Be whatever you are as long as it’s real. With this song I’m calling for a resurgence of authenticity!“ - John Logan Parsons III

“Immerser has a refreshing way of building layers of mystery and meaning into rock songs that feel uniquely their own. You’d be hard pressed to listen to one of their songs and not have it change you somehow.” - Kane Churko (Producer)

“Immerser is a unique artist with a worthy message and creative vision”. - Aaron Nordstrom (Gemini Syndrome)

Immerser is a dynamic, hard rock, solo project featuring the powerful music of John Logan Parsons III. The goal of the Immerser project is to bring meaning to a melody. As an artist John L Parsons III isn’t afraid to explore the deepest parts of the subconscious. Immerser songs deal with some of life’s darkest places, yet there is always an energetic undercurrent of optimism, spirituality, and love running throughout. The result is a passionate mix of alternative, pop, grunge, and metal. Immerser is music that a listener can connect with and find deeper meaning in. With the recent enlistment of world renowned producer Kane Churko who has worked with some of today’s biggest artists including - In This Moment, Gemini Syndrome and Violent Idols, Immerser is certainly a musical force to be reckoned with. Immerse yourself and transmute!

WHO ON EARTH Release New Single & Video for "On The Brink"

New Jersey hard rock quintet WHO ON EARTH are back with another hard-hitting single and video from their forthcoming debut album, 'Blame', due out this fall. The new track, titled "On The Brink", delivers a potent combination of earth moving vocals, guitar virtuosity, powerful bass, and thunderous drums that have seemingly been lost in the modern-day shuffle!

Speaking about the lyrical themes behind "On The Brink", bassist Pete Rizzi says:

“It is sung from the perspective of anybody who is in the middle to lower class. It’s the 99% of the population who are constantly bombarded with fake news, manipulated media, misleading advertising, and inflation. Trying to make ends meet is becoming more difficult and depressing. We do the best we can, despite all of these factors working against us, while reminding ourselves that friends and family are what matter the most.”

Inspired by the NWOBH and classic rock acts of the past, Who On Earth is comprised of Coosh (vocals), Pete Rizzi (bass), Joe D' Aqui (drums), Steve Eagle (guitar), and Rob Damms (guitar), with the band slated to release their debut LP, 'Blame', later this year. The album was produced, engineered, mixed, and mastered by guitar virtuoso Mike Orlando (Adrenaline Mob) at his Sonic Stomp Studio in NY. Orlando also contributed his incredible skills as a guest guitarist on the record.

For more WHO ON EARTH, the band is playing at Orange Loop Rock Festival in Atlantic City, NJ (June 11). For more details, visit orangelooprockfest.com.

About WHO ON EARTH

Somebody needed to pick up the torch for hard rock and heavy metal with real grit and gusto and without a gimmick. Enter Who On Earth. The New Jersey quintet— Coosh [vocals], Pete Rizzi [bass], Joe D’Aqui [drums], Steve Eagle [guitar], and Rob Dams [guitar]—deliver a one-two punch of hard-hitting hooks and airtight instrumentation bolted down by pummeling grooves and piercing riffs. With virtuoso guitarist and producer Mike Orlando [Adrenaline Mob, Noturnall] in their corner, the musicians pay homage to rock’s past as they usher in its future on their independent full-length debut, Blame.

It all gestated from a question…

“We wanted to fill in the blank of ‘Who On Earth is going to bring back good rock and metal?’,” explains Pete. “We grew up on the new wave of British heavy metal and classic rock. We went through grunge and other great genres of metal. We wanted to resurrect the melodies, hooks, and guitar solos. We went back to our roots, yet upgraded everything with modern production.”

The group made their bones through countless gigs across the Tristate area in every dive bar and concert hall with a stage. Along the way, Coosh and Pete tore up venues as part of MadHaus, performing marathon covers. In 2021, the longtime friends chose to forego covers, hunker down, and compose an original album. Pete invited Joe D’Aqui—the ever-versatile drummer of his thrash band PIERCED—to join the fold. In order to bring the record to life, the band hit the studio with none other than Mike Orlando. Over the course of the next year, the guys endured numerous COVID delays as they recorded with Orlando behind the board as producer, engineer, and “stunt” guitarist. Nodding to everyone from Black Sabbath, Iron Maiden, and Metallica to Rush, Alice In Chains, and Tool, they placed storytelling in the spotlight.

“Most of our songs are complete stories from start to finish,” notes Coosh. “We’re talking about our lives.”

In the end, Who On Earth fills a void for rock ‘n’ roll.

“We just tried to write good songs,” Pete leaves off. “We’ve gone back to what we grew up on. It’s still valuable and relevant. It can’t die.”
