New Jersey art pop heroes ELK CITY present whimsical single 'Tried to Move On’

September 1, 2023

"Elk City’s cool and elegant sound draws on 1980s “dream pop” and bits of 1960s folk-rock" ~ The New York Times

"This music is sophisticated – vivacious, harmonious and memorable due to many factors, not least of all is the remarkable vocal timbre and convincing delivery of vocalist Renée LoBue, recalling Eddie Brickell at times and Jefferson Airplane’s Grace Slick at others" ~ Music-News.com

"Formidable... animated, brazen and effervescent. LoBue’s commanding vocals are the icing on the cake... highly infectious" ~ The Spill Magazine

New Jersey art-rock collective Elk City present 'Tried To Move On', the second taste of 'Undertow', the band's seventh album to date. This follows the voluminous consciousness-building lead track 'Strong (You're Not Alone)', a swirling neo-psychedelic folk song baked in cult obsessiveness.

Founded by Renée LoBue and Ray Ketchem, Elk City is brilliantly rounded out by Luna’s Sean Eden, Richard Baluyut (Versus) and Chris Robertson (Psychedelic Furs side project Feed, Punch Havana).

Ketchem, a renowned producer (Guided By Voices, Luna, Gramercy Arms)recorded, mixed and mastered the 'Undertow' album, which will be released via Montclair, NJ-based Magic Door Record Label, co-founded several years ago by Guided by Voices' Kevin March, Ketchem and artist Renée LoBue.

“'Tried to Move On' finds the band following our pop tendencies. The song is perfect for the end of summer, while the weather is still inviting outside. Close and intimate during the verses and chorus, the song opens up in the middle with a triumphant instrumental section," explains Ray Ketchem.

"In the production, I used small, close sounds to create the rhythm track. I recorded the sound of various metal objects, such as music and microphone stands, and then manipulated the audio. The songs feature one of my favorite lyrics, “the hours turn into weeks, turn into years”.

Renée LoBue adds, "A boomerang of a breezy pop song that slides into your DMs to say, "Hi, you're living in denial." Wearing pastels and beaming. Bursting with... Joy? Anger? It’s “All Gucci” as the kids say, until the chorus barrels through, morphing into a different song that's not on the guest list. You're left in a whirlpool of self-created confusion. But I do like whirlpools because they remind me of jacuzzis and any correlation between our band and jacuzzis satisfies me to pieces. People put up with hunks of BS because fooling themselves is easier than walking an unknown path. Walk your unknown path. But keep your jacuzzi."

Like their sixth album 'Above the Water', this record is inspired by the band’s love of documentaries like 'The Source Family' and 'Wild, Wild Country' - films that explore the allure of cults and extreme alternative lifestyles.

From the opening title track, 'Undertow' sucks you into a different kind of record with peculiar pop constructs built of rare materials, found only in the wilds behind Magic Door Recording Studio in Montclair, which legendary studio designer George Augspurger helped transform into a freeform studio where vintage microphones, modern studio gear, and bespoke sound tuning elevate and inspire.

This is where Elk City has meticulously built this record and this band a whole other way. Even after seven albums, Elk City are still deliberately hard to define, still seekers, unafraid to shed this life and lead the listener on a journey to new sounds and feelings... Welcome to Elk City.

As of August 30, 'Tried To Move On' will be available across fine digital outlets, including Apple Music, Spotify and Bandcamp, where the full 'Undertow' album (out September 22) is already available for pre-order.

New Jersey indie outfit ELK CITY returns with powerful single 'Strong (You're Not Alone)', heralding new 'Undertow' album

"Softly beaten drums and tremolo guitar guide us into the song... allows the song to ebb and flow around the gentle charm of acoustic instruments and the grit of the electric" ~ Joyzine

New Jersey psychedelic art-rock collective Elk City announces that they will release their seventh album 'Undertow' on September 22. Ahead of that, they present the voluminous consciousness-building lead track 'Strong (You're Not Alone)' , a swirling neo-psychedelic folk song baked in cult obsessiveness.

Recorded, mixed and mastered by renowned producer Ray Ketchem (Guided By Voices, Luna, Gramercy Arms), 'Undertow' will be released via Montclair, NJ-based Magic Door Record Label, co-founded by Guided by Voices' Kevin Marchwith Ketchem and artist Renée LoBue.

Like their latest 'Above the Water' LP, this record is inspired by the band’s love of documentaries like 'The Source Family' and 'Wild, Wild Country' - films that explore the allure of cults and extreme alternative lifestyles.

It sure is tempting to join a cult. To drop whatever it is we do over and over and just plain start over, with a fresh sense of community and identity and a new way to love and live and be in this world a whole other way. Cult-life can’t be any crazier than how we’re doing it now, in this backwards, modern world in which we find ourselves. So… it could be time to X out of this celestial Zoom, peel off the athleisure wear and slap on a space tunic that says, ‘Hey, I’ve found something else, and this is my new family now and they can give me inner peace and Heaven on Earth in exchange for letting go of everything I thought I was and society expects me to be’.

Let’s do it.

This is the pull of 'Undertow', sucking you into a different kind of record from the opening title track. Peculiar pop constructs built of rare materials, found only in the wilds behind Magic Door Recording Studio in Montclair, NJ. which legendary studio designer George Augspurger helped transform from a cavernous warehouse into a freeform studio where vintage microphones, modern studio gear, and bespoke sound tuning elevate and inspire.

This is where Elk City’s founding members, Renée LoBue and Ray Ketchem, along with Luna’s Sean Eden, Richard Baluyut (Versus) and Chris Robertson (Psychedelic Furs side project Feed, Punch Havana) have meticulously built this record and this band a whole other way. Even after seven albums, Elk City are still deliberately hard to define, still seekers, unafraid to shed this life and lead the listener on a journey to new sounds and feelings... Welcome to Elk City.

“'Strong (You’re Not Alone)' just may be the highest of heights we’ve reached as songwriting collaborators. A ‘non-single’ single, unapologetically present in its dream catcher-waving vibe. The least pop of pop songs on our upcoming Undertow LP, yet here it is, served up first: Sprawling, moody, nonsensical, captivating, and much like Rob Zombie sang: More Human than Human. Baby steps in believing in oneself. “Ooh, you never know what you’re made of till you climb the top.” Let this one guide you, heal you, inspire you, strengthen you. Hacky sacks optional. Also: It’s way cheaper than therapy," says Renee LoBue.

Ray Ketchem adds, “Strong (You’re Not Alone)” is an example, where we let the song forge our path. We observe, listen and follow where it leads, but we relinquish control in order to open the channels within ourselves".

As of July 19, 'Strong (You're Not Alone)' will be available across fine digital outlets, including Apple Music, Spotify and Bandcamp. , where the full 'Undertow' album (out September 22) may also be pre-ordered.

BLACK WAIL Announce 'Born on Fire' EP - Out April 23

March 28, 2021

New Jersey rock quintet BLACK WAIL is primed to release their latest studio offering. The band has announced their new EP, 'Born on Fire', which will see an April 23, 2021release via Rhyme & Reason. The new EP is the band's fourth studio effort since forming in 2014, and is preceded by their late-2017 offering 'Chromium Homes'. Fans eager to get a taste of the upcoming record can check out the lead single, "See Conspiracy", which is out now on digital and streaming platforms found here: https://orcd.co/seeconspiracy.

Speaking on the new single, the band offers a direct and to-the-point summation, stating: "'See Conspiracy' is a song about people who believe crazy conspiracy theories and wind up doing crazy things because of it."

While New Jersey quintet Black Wail’s latest EP, 'Born on Fire' (Rhyme & Reason), isn’t a concept record, there are some threads running between its songs that you’d be forgiven for thinking were a direct response to the past year. The lead single, “See Conspiracy” was written before the Qanon movement reached mass acceptance, and long before its believers wound up in Congress. Singer/guitarist Michael Tarlazzi points back to the election of our last President as the genesis. “When he got elected, I was dumbfounded that that could even possibly happen,” he says. “I thought it was a joke, because I figured everyone knew that the guy was a clown. Then he’s spouting all these theories about ‘fake news’ and that there’s a liberal plot to get everybody. Meanwhile, there are real-life events happening, like school shootings with assault rifles that kids easily got because they’re so easily available in America and any attempt at regulation becomes ‘they’re taking our guns away.'”

Black Wail formed in Jersey City in early 2014 when Tarlazzi, then best known as a drummer or guitarist, decided to front his own band to draw on his influences of metal, punk, psych, stoner, and classic rock; playing guitar as well as handling vocals for the first time. After recruiting Susan Lutin on bass and Bram Teitelman on keys, the lineup solidified with the addition of guitarist Ed Charreun and drummer Felipe Torres, who also play in the sludge/noise trio Twin God. Born on Fire, the quintet’s fourth EP, follows 2017’s Chromium Homes, and was recorded by Grammy-winning producer John Seymour (Bouncing Souls), who co-produced the EP with the band.

Michael Tarlazzi - Guitar, Vocals

Susan Lutin - Bass

SYDNEY SHERWOOD Releases Official Lyric Video for "Creep"

January 13, 2021

Sophomore EP, Headspace, Out February 27th, 2021

"Creep" by Sydney Sherwood available NOW on all major music platforms!Follow Sydney: https://www.instagram.com/sydsherwoodmusic/?utm_source=ig_embed&hl=enhtt...

New Jersey based Singer / Songwriter SYDNEY SHERWOOD has released the official lyric video for "Creep," which was created by Jared Dylan of Red 13 Studios, and is the first single off of her upcoming, sophomore EP, Headspace. Produced and co-written by Brian Craddock, guitarist of Daughtry and owner of The Cat Room Recording Studio in Nashville, Tennessee, Headspace is due to release on February 27, 2021.

"Being someone that has struggled with anxiety, when it came to writing 'Creep,' I really wanted to give an inside look on what anxiety feels like, the emotions you experience while in a panic attack, and the idea that the same mind that thinks of the beauty of life is also the one that thinks negative thoughts which can really drag you down. I found in my experience that some people didn’t understand what it was like to have anxiety and would just tell me to “be positive” or “just don’t think about it” and I wished they understood or could feel what was going on inside. My main goal with this song was to illustrate the war that goes on in your head when you have anxiety as well as how you can either choose to let fear overcome you or you can overcome that fear. - SYDNEY SHERWOOD

"Sydney is rock's answer to pop's P!NK or country's Carrie Underwood, she exudes all the power and confidence and sings with no-nonsense authority, all while remaining firmly situated in heavy alternative rock. Sydney Sherwood cannot be merely compared to female singers of her generation and writes and performs with a conviction that fans of 3 Doors Down or Daughtry would instantly recognize." - Joe Makoviecki (Singer, songwriter of Jackson Pines)

Sydney Sherwood is an 18-year-old singer/songwriter from New Jersey. Sydney began singing and playing guitar at the age of 10 as a way to express her emotions as she was separated from her family during her brother’s years of cancer treatment.

On March 3, 2019, Sydney released her first EP, Beauty from Ashes. Her release show was held at TheStone Pony in Asbury Park, New Jersey. In 2019, Sydney also received a golden ticket to Hollywood from American Idol celebrity judges; Katy Perry, Luke Bryan, and Lionel Richie.

Sydney’s goal is to touch the lives of others through the music that she writes, as she takes inspiration directly from her life experiences and hardships.

Today, everyone knows the setlist, everyone knows the special effects.
everyone knows the show....
Being on stage and staring out at a room full of cell phones gives us a front row seat into the absurdity of it all. Put the phone down, sing along and have a great time. People will believe you were there!"

vinyl aisle of their favorite mom and pop record store, Melody Records.

names in rock music, including The Goo Goo Dolls, Lifehouse, Bowling For Soup, and Bon Jovi and is currently one of the main songwriters for the History
channels hit television show, American Pickers.

Stiller's movie Zoolander.

Danny and Mylars drummer, Chris O'Hara, can also be seen in episodes of HBO's popular hit series, The Sopranos.

EYE OF THE DESTROYER - 'The Wolf You Feed' is OUT NOW

October 11, 2020

www.HIGHPOTENCYPRODUCTIONS.COM

Band Releases Lyric Video for "Reversed" - WATCH HERE

Joe Randazza Lists "Ten Sickest Breakdowns" for Loudwire

New Jersey death metal outfit EYE OF THE DESTROYER have released their new studio EP, 'The Wolf You Feed' TODAY via the group's High Potency imprint. The record serves as the follow up to their highly acclaimed 2019 effort 'Baptized In Pain'.

Led by multi-instrumentalist Joe Randazza, who performs all of the instrumentals and vocals for 'The Wolf You Feed', Eye of the Destroyer is a relentlessly aggressive project that aims to bring the scathing animus and unshakable resolve of the hardcore genre into the dire times faced by the millennial generation. Fans can purchase 'The Wolf You Feed' (CD + Download) at highpotencyproductions.com

Eye of the Destroyer mastermind Joe Randazza recently spoke with the folks at Loudwire to share his own personal list of the "10 Sickest Breakdowns in Hardcore + Metal", which included offerings from bands like Slipknot, God Forbid, Hatebreed and more. Fans can check out the piece at the link found here.

"The Wolf You Feed" is Eye of the Destroyer’s darkest album to date. The record comes on the heels of the critically acclaimed "Baptized in Pain". Eye of the Destroyer’s new EP comes into its own with an evolved writing style that utilizes elements of the band’s New Jersey hardcore roots, controlled chaos, and raw emotion.

The album provides crucial commentary on the plights that millennials face from childhood trauma to archaic political dogma. Joe Randazza dug deep into the trenches of his subconscious to write and produce this album that rips the band-aid off the festering wounds that plague a whole generation. Shadow work in musical form, this album is a reminder that taking your power back requires a deep and uncomfortable inspection of the dark recesses of your mind.

This album was written and produced by local New Jersey scene legend Joe Randazza and almost failed to make it to press. Joe wrote the album in a really bad place while battling addiction and loss. The release of this album was fueled by bass player Dan Kaufman’s unrelenting belief in the spiritual awakening "The Wolf You Feed" delivers. It was recorded at the Soap Factory in Roselle Park, New Jersey and mixed and mastered by Keegan Okazaki from Nocturnal Audio based out of Toronto Canada.

Eye of the Destroyer is:

Joe Randazza - Vocals, Guitar, Bass & Drums

Dan Kaufman - Bass

THE ATOMIC BITCHWAX Release New Album "Scorpio" Today

September 2, 2020

New Jersey-based rock n' roll trio THE ATOMIC BITCHWAX have announced their new studio album, 'Scorpio', which will see an August 28th release via Tee Pee Re...

Free-wheeling stoner psych rock for couch-locked headbangers

-Loudwire-

How many others are taking a 70-year-old art form and fostering virginal excitement with it? Not many!

-Decibel-

As one might expect, it is a blurry whirlwind of punches and kicks, drawing on another time-tested aspect of the band’s overarching modus. They kill. In dizzying fashion.

-The Obelisk-

Incredible guitar work on this album, creating a magnetizing soundscape through this record

-A&P Reacts-

###

New Jersey-based rock n' roll trio THE ATOMIC BITCHWAX have released their new studio album, 'Scorpio', today via Tee Pee Records. The group, which originally formed in the mid-90s, consists of lead vocalist/bassist Chris Kosnik, drummer Bob Pantella, and guitarist Garrett Sweeny, all of whom are past or present members of the band Monster Magnet. Scorpio is the follow up to the group's 2017 full-length 'Force Field', and their eighth studio LP overall spanning more than two decades.

Order 'Scorpio' HERE.

The scourge and scorch of New Jersey returns, and their sting is deadly as ever. Garden State riff rock stalwarts The Atomic Bitchwax proudly present their eighth full-length, Scorpio.

In a busy three years since NJ’s most powerful power trio issued 2017’s Force Field, they’ve toured the US and Europe multiple times over, taken part in fests far and wide, and blown past the 20th anniversary of their self-titled debut album.

Scorpio acknowledges the two-decades milestone in its opening revamp of the first song the band ever wrote with vocals, “Hope You Die,” the crash-in of which will be immediately familiar to anyone who’s seen them live. A generation later, it still gets the message across.

From then on, it’s all-go on nine fresh-made burners, founding bassist/vocalist Chris Kosnik, guitarist Garrett Sweeny, and drummer Bob Pantella toying with tempo subtly to lace songs like “Betting Man” and “Easy Action” and “Energy” with signature-style memorable hooks amid instrumentals “Ninja,” “Crash” and “Instant Death,” the head-spinning turns of which push ahead in the aggressive stance The Bitchwax began to present in 2015’s Gravitron while still remaining imbued with new character and the loyalty to classic heavy rock that underlies all their work.

Tracked in Jan. 2020 at Sound Spa in Edison, NJ, with Stephen DeAcutis engineering, Scorpio is a righteous next stage of the momentum The Atomic Bitchwax have been building through hard touring and release after release of gauntlet-throwing-down rock and roll. This is a band that never stops moving, and only ever moves forward.

Just in time for Mother's Day, MAMADRAMA has released their new single "MILF"

May 8, 2020

MILF (Moms In Leather Forever) is the first single released by the mom-only band MAMADRAMA.

MAMADRAMA is a mom-only band made up of five moms who rock by night, and roll (with 11 kids) by day. What’s more punk than a kickass mom band?! When not rocking out, they are small business owners, entrepreneurs, and a Kindergarten teacher.

"We met at Lakehouse Music Academy in Asbury Park, NJ, where our kids took music lessons. We dreamed of something more than the endless mom grind: piles of laundry and miles of errands. Those flashbacks of freedom and concerts before stretch marks inspired us motivated mamas to meet up once a week and form a mom band. We realized what the band meant for us - we didn’t want to lose sight of who we are and who we once were. Another chapter is just beginning after kids and you can have (and want) more. The energy is fierce and the jokes are feisty but the beating heart of MAMADRAMA is living out a dream that is never too late!" says the band.

They add, "We wanted to put an anthem out there for other moms feeling the same way too and that is the inspiration behind MILF (Moms In Leather Forever). Lyrics echo that sentiment and include: “tired of mediocrity” and “no more dull and dead-end life, no more tired and empty wife, no more laundry, no more chores, I can’t take it anymore…M-I-L-F…Moms In Leather Forever!”

With the start of the quarantine we have seen how much more moms have had to take on and feel that we need to unite and salute all moms now more than ever!

“It’s pretty surreal to have a song coming out right now - and it’s our first original! MILF (Moms In Leather Forever) was written in what feels like a very different time and yet so many of the emotions behind it perfectly apply to where we are today: Feelings of wanting to escape the daily routines and repetitions of motherhood that sometimes feel never-ending. We hope this song will be a fun, inspiring motivation to moms everywhere giving them permission to ROCK OUT!” says vocalist Beth Herbruck.

MAMADRAMA is set to release their first single titled, "MILF", on May 8, 2020 to kick off Mother’s Day weekend.
