Best known as the “long-haired rocker” from the original season of MTV’s groundbreaking reality show The Real World, Andre enjoyed a decade of success with indie Rock band Reigndance (heavily featured in the original MTV series), before relocating to Los Angeles and launching a series of his own projects. The latest, his current eponymous Rock incarnation, released their debut EP in 2020, with a full-length album to follow in 2021. Despite being labelled” the ultimate embodiment of Gen X Slackerdom…” by The New York Times, Comeau has forged a 30+ year career in music, on his own terms.

“Clean Break" will be the first release on Comeau’s French Osados imprint, in conjunction with THC: MUSIC (Chuck Mosley, American Head Charge, Black Light Burns), the longtime label hub of A&R/Marketing vet Thom Hazaert, who originally brought Andre to his EMP LABEL GROUPcollaboration with Megadeth’s David Ellefson, to release Comeau’s 2020 Wrong Within EP.

Premiering in early March on the newly launched Paramount+ streaming platform, Real World Homecoming: New York has been one of the most talked about new shows in recent memory, garnering massive press and critical praise from the biggest media outlets including Time, Rolling Stone, People, The New York Times, Yahoo, Variety, Entertainment Weekly, and many more.

Says Comeau, “It was interesting to step back into that place and to do it again. Just like the first time, I went in as an artist. It was great to reconnect with everyone and be part of these important conversations. Obviously, the show features a lot of my new music, including “Clean Break”, which was also a tremendous boost.

Returning to the same iconic NYC loft in 2020, Comeau once again appears the cool voice of reason, navigating a storm of racially charged tensions among the roommates, with one episode ending with author and activist Kevin Powell referencing Andre’s upcoming single, stating the world’s need for a “Clean Break”.

Comeau and Hazaert have also launched a multiple episode livestream series, “Thom and Andre Get Real”, providing running commentary on the show, with discussion of music and related social issues, viewable at the links below.

This is the official music video for the the song "Animals" by mysterious rock/metal band Supreme Unbeing.Make sure to subscribe to don't miss out on the que...

Labelling their songs as messages, each “message” brings observations of modern-day society from vocalist/prophet Zac Red. Following up the success of the band’s first message, “You’ll Never Make It”, which has received almost 2 million views, the second message “Animals”dwells on the basic question if there is any difference between man and animal, and how the conclusion to that question may change our perception of reality. The video, created by the legendary Balazs Grof, gives your second look at the animated visages of the mysterious band members, Zac Red, D. Vine, Unknown, and Al Mytee, plus some special cameos including Megadeth bassist David Ellefson, and his EMP LABEL GROUP/Ellefson cohort Thom Hazaert.

Referred to by REVOLVER Magazine as a “Metal Gorillaz”, SUPREME UNBEING is a mysterious rock/metal band led by vocalist/prophet Zac Red who acts as the physical form of our collective consciousness, the ambient quantum entanglement of our most personal thoughts. After observing the world for some 30 years, Zac Red has set out on a quest with fellow prophets D. Vine, Unknown and Al Mytee to shed some light over our present existence through the medium of heavy riffs, astounding solos, and philosophically intriguing lyrics.

"Animals" was released to Active Rock Radio, where it debuted at #4 on the Billboard Active Rock Indicator most added, and #3 on the FOUNDATIONS secondary market most added.

SUPREME UNBEING signed earlier this year with Megadeth’s David Ellefson’s EMP LABEL GROUP when a strange cassette tape arrived at the desk of EMP LABEL GROUP’S Thom Hazaert.

“I’m still not sure who the Hell they are, but people seem to like them.”

Ellefson continues to disavow any knowledge.

Full album digital downloads are available for review, and the band is available for email/audio only interviews.

Supreme Unbeing's debut full-length LP Enter Reality hit digital outlets on 10/10/2020 (October 10th 2020).

Portland’s The Loyal Order have released their self-titled debut album via EMP Label Group/Von Artists/Bühner Media

Official Music Video for the song "Hellfire" by The Loyal Order Written by: Buehner/Cook Directed by: Rob Daiker Official Webpage: https://www.theloyalorder....

featuring cover art from Melody Myers (Ellefson, Escape The Fate, Altitudes and Attitudes) available now on all digital outlets. The band has released a video for their second single “Hellfire”, released simultaneously with the album July 17th, which became Foundations #1 Greatest Gainer (with Metallica at #2). In week 2 it gained entrance into Billboard’s TOP 40 Mainstream Rock Indicator Chart and Foundation’s Top 50 in week 2 and continues to climb. The video currently sits at over 350,000 views.

TLO released their debut single "READY FOR DEAD" in 2019, with a video that has now received over a million views. With the expertise of Thom Hazaert (EMP Label Group) at the helm, “Ready For Dead” found a home in the Billboard Mainstream Rock Indicator Chart rising for over 10 weeks peaking just outside the top 20, and at #12 on Foundation’s Top 50.

The Loyal Order hatched as a studio project several years ago when vocalist Jeff Buehner was approached to write a theme song for a regional outdoor hunting show. He reached out to guitarist Brandon Cook (Black ‘N Blue) for a heavy riff, and the result was a song called SUPERHUMAN produced by Portland’s Kevin Hahn. It aired regionally in the Pacific NW for two seasons. From this, the songwriting partnership between Buehner and Cook began to flow. They soon approached Producer Rob Daiker at The Commune in Portland, Oregon, who has crafted major label releases with Slowrush, The Dan Reed Network, and Royal Bliss.

Rounding out the lineup is Justin Gibson on guitar, Patrick Young (Black ‘N Blue) on bass, and Kyle Baltus (36 Crazyfists, Light the Torch) on the drums. All prominent Pacific NW rock players that have made names for themselves locally and nationally.

The Loyal Order’s debut show was with Puddle of Mudd to a sold out audience at The Bossa Nova Ballroom in 2019, and. Buehner and Cook have been featured in publications such as Sleazerock, The Decibel Report, Metal Talk, KNAC, The Hard Heavy and Hair Show, Bionic Buzz and others.

“If there is any justice in the music world (which we fear there is none) but if there is, this should be HUGE and fingers crossed they make it over here to treat us to seeing these superb songs performed live on a big stage where they belong! A corker of a debut album, it’s big, it’s meaty and there is real substance here. All in all this is the best thing I’ve heard this year, serious album of the year contender, and I’m so excited I’ll be making everyone listen to it, on repeat, forever.” 
~Tina C from MMH The Home of Rock Radio UK

.......the album kicks off is surprisingly forthright style with a mid-paced LA style rocker Ready for Dead with a strong likeness to Velvet Revolver or a polite Brides Of Destruction vibe. Jeff Buehner has a great voice and is tunefully on point throughout with a bit of a roughed-up edge in places. He opens up, soars and shines on tracks like the standout Colorblind propped up with some very complimentary backing vocals. There’s a nod to Alice In Chains, Soundgarden and Creed in tracks like Half Life and The River and a very Buckcherry Fuck Or Fight, plus another standout in the raunch and roll of the Blackstone Cherry-esque Superhuman.

Former Reigndance vocalist Andre Comeau,will release his new solo EP WRONG WITHIN, Friday, June 6/19

"Son of a Gun" by Andre Comeau. From the EP Wrong Within, available on all digital outlets 3/24 from EMP LABEL GROUP. Video: Melody Myers - Designed By Melody

Former Reigndance vocalist Andre Comeau, also known for his appearance as the “rocker guy” on the original first season of MTV’s groundbreaking reality series “The Real World", will release his new solo EP WRONG WITHIN, Friday, June 6/19 on all digital outlets via THC MUSIC/EMP LABEL GROUP. WRONG WITHIN is 5 songs of straightforward, southern-tinged Hard-Rock, written and spear-headed by guitarist/vocalist Comeau.

On Wrong Within, Comeau returns to his musical roots, fronting a heavy rock band with veteran session musician Darren Elpant on drums. Toeing the line between classic and cutting edge, Comeau proves that guitar-rock can still be vital, original, and relevant in 2020.

From Folk-Balladeer to Hard Rocker, to reluctant reality star, Andre Comeau has done it all. Born in 70’s-era Detroit to a family of touring musicians, Andre grew up steeped in all genres of music. Possessed with an instinctual sense of melody and dynamics, Andre has music in his blood. And blood in his music.

His band Reigndance---which also featured Dean Fertita (Queens of the Stone Age, The Dead Weather) ignited, but quickly outgrew the burgeoning Detroit music scene of the early 90’s. Shortly after relocating to New York, Andre was chosen to be a cast member of the inaugural season of MTV’s seminal reality show ‘The Real World’. The show was an instant success, and Andre,The Real World’s token “Rock Guy”, and Reigndance were afforded massive exposure. After three records and extensive touring, the band found themselves at a creative crossroads. They disbanded in 1997.

Says Comeau, “Reigndance was really a great band, and we took it up the mountain. And I’m extremely proud of everything we did. And we’ve all continued to be successful in our individual pursuits after. The Real World thing, for a long time, was something I disconnected with, and at the time, it was really its own thing. For a long time, I didn’t even talk about it.

But as the World has evolved into the reality based, unscripted, instantly-gratified place it is now, it’s easier to look back and see the importance of The Real World, and what we were all a part of. There were times it definitely felt like a counter-active force, but in hindsight, it truly was incredible to be a part of what would become the ground zero of the almost complete evolution and transformation of entertainment as we know it.”

Comeau relocated to Los Angeles in search of fresh stimuli and new musical landscapes. The 2000s found Andre returning to the folk music of his youth with River Rouge. They released a handful of well received albums and became a highlight of the Los Angeles club scene, but disbanded in 2016.

In 2019, Comeau connected with Hard Rock staple EMP LABEL GROUP, head up by Megadeth bassist David Ellefson, and his running partner Thom Hazaert, and triumphantly returns to his hard rock roots with the Wrong Within EP---a straight-no-chaser collection of ballsy Rock songs

Says Hazaert, “I have always been a fan of Andre’s music, which, of course, I discovered through The Real World. Reigndance was a great Rock band, and, from a distance, I have perpetually kept up with his musical endeavors over the years. While we had discussed briefly working together during the early 2000’s, which ultimately never came to fruition as he transitioned away from Rock for a season, i’m extremely excited that it has come together now the way it has. Andre has always been an extremely gifted songwriter, and a true entertainer.”
