  Words by Anselm Anderson Phoenix, Az powerhouses Jane 'n' The Jungle have struck luck with their latest single " Lucky 7", due out on October 2nd. The trio consists of Jordan White on vocals, Brian Dellis ( Guitars) and " Big B" on bass. They combine the nineties Alt-rock with a feel-good vibe and engaging lyrics to lift people's spirits during these tumultuous times.

The College graduates have been making waves with their first full-length record Concrete Jungle. " Lucky 7" will be their follow-up single to the hugely successful " Animal, produced by Grammy - award-winning producer Chuck Azarian, who also produces this track.

London’s very own grunge rockers’ Superfecta will release their first new track in two years via their music platform www. Aurovine.com   this Friday (Sept 18). “Breathe in” was written by lead singer Rob Negrini, as part of a trilogy of recordings for Superfecta beginning here. New bassist Joe Head is introduced for the first time for this evolution in sound for them. Breathe In marks a turn in direction to a more aggressive, darker sound I have never heard before. There is no holding back with the opening riff, an edgy and potent threat of distorted guitar. Each passage builds in tempo and intensity with similarities to Alice In Chains during their Dirt” era.  Matt Vella pounds the drums throughout each chord struck like an army general, as Negrini croons over solid basslines. Negrini delivers once more with vocals full of emotion and sincerity on a track I think is about turning one’s life around. The band sounds like they are enjoying themselves without leaning too far from their m

( Click here to read "The Path" review)  https://anselmanderson.blogspot.com/2020/03/band-of-week-blame-sacred-path-ep.html The Exiled  carries on from where The Path  left off. This hard-hitting track comes with a clear message-  a voice for the downtrodden! It seems to be a patent for Blame The Sacred to deliver meaty riffs that would knock you over with a proverbial punch. Thunderous drums, an intense intro and sonic vocals help define the true meaning behind what the band want to convey. Vocalist Danny Porter continues to evolve as a trusted singer with adaptability to dig deeper into his arsenal to mix melodies and growls to sound like a man visiting his own demons. The Violence is

Arising Sons emerge onto the music scene with " Love is Coming Down", their first single from the as-yet-untitled debut album, due out later this summer. The Grand Rapids-based rock band hope to deliver a positive message about Jesus in their pursuit to write catchy songs for fervent new fans. This particular track looks at the story of Zacchaeus, as the lead singer and guitarist Brett Mezey explain, "   You have never heard a song about Zacchaeus like this before. “Love Is Coming Down” is a song inspired by the story of Zacchaeus who climbed a tree to see Jesus as he was walking by.
