Graham Moseley Brown 
- from Boston, Massachusetts
http://www.grahammoseleybrown.com
"Without trying to sound too artsy or whimsical, the thing that I'm most proud of regarding 'To The Brink' is that it's real. It's honest," explains Brown. "I think it's really easy to get in the studio and start changing something you wrote in the bathroom or in your kitchen in earnest, and start molding it into what you think people want to hear. Here's a sincere effort that you are proud of and want to share, but trying to dress it as something more accessible or
relevant is what immediately strips it of what made it worth writing or listening to it in the first place".
Seven Story Fall  - from Wayne, MI
With 3 ep's put out digitally and hundreds sold around shows this band is not new to the music scene and have been featured in many newspapers,magazines and on many sites. some noted few were ; newspapers and magazines:AP magazine, detroit free press, schoolcraft college newspaper,the music shelf magazine, wayne memorial newspaper. seven story fall hit the studio with 5 songs produced by Erik Ron (good charlotte,panic at the disco, hit the lights, saosin) hoping to release a new ep, but within a couple months signed to TATE MUSIC GROUP and was given the option to release an ep with the 5 previously recorded songs or record 7 more at tate's studio and release a full length. now with only hunter left he is determined to make this full length a success . 7SF is looking to create a huge buzz everywhere from newspapers and magazines to exclusive interviews and live shows this year with their first full length on a label. quote from seven story fall "we are finally at a point where things are only progressing, and with the release of this new album and music video we hope to make an impression this time around".

The Strange Heat  - Conshohocken, PAhttp://www.strangeheat.com
"A very talented quintet, The Strange Heat refuses to be pigeonholed into a specific genre. Expanding, exploring and flexing their musical muscles is what they strive for as they create their music. The group has a nice blend of established talented musicians and new, young talented musicians, the future is very bright for this group." - Your Local Note



The Escape  - Norristown, PAhttp://theescape.net

“The first two tracks tell you what to expect for most of what is to come. The songs divide into two teams: the “happy and hopThe Escape keeps your pulse up throughout. As one of the more upbeat songs, “The Will To Survive” is great start. If I had been inside a car when I heard it, I would have taken the top down and raised my fist in triumph. Lyrically, New Direction is decent. TSimilarly, the instrumentals maintain an adrenaline pumping beat, thought at times it can get a bit predictable. Especially to fans of Fallout Boy or Panic! at the Disco. Again, though, there are more interesting bits sprinkled here and there. Particularly in the guitar work in the fourth track, “Pull It Together"”

MorningFUZZ
 - from Brooklyn/Long Island
*** Catch them early They Will be a Dobbs on Sat July 27th**
 
In an era of “digital” music, Morning Fuzz seeks to stay true to meaning of Rock and Roll by using Fussa’s powerful songwriting, expansive vocal ranges and captivating guitar riffs that are authentic and pure.
"Morning Fuzz is fun, bouncy guitar pop, happily shading in the intersections of the Venn diagram where mainstream pop and alternative music meet." - Reviewage.net

 


Out of the Beardspace  - from Cherry Hill NJ
“This is quirky, offbeat stuff, filled with twisting time signatures, intriguing jazzy bits, noodling solo passages, gorgeous and quite poppy vocal harmonies, and some occasional metallic bursts, all from a bunch of young guys who met at the Cherry Hill, New Jersey chapter of the School of Rock. Whether it's the straight Canterbury styled prog of the "Train Ride Samba" suite (National Health meets Gryphon anyone?), the grungy prog of "Grungadelic" , or the ripping prog-fusion of "Jasmine", complete with some scorching Zappa/Petrucci styled guitar solos, there's intriguing music at just about ever corner. "Back to Now" channels vintage Genesis as well as early Spock's Beard, while the booming bass, sizzling guitar, jazzy sax, and soaring vocal harmonies of "Twenty-Seven" are a can't miss for any prog fan. Peter Pardo - Sea of Tranquility


 

Burden My Surrender  - from Wellsboro, PA
The group's sound is an energetic blend of pop and rock twisted with the aggressiveness of metal and the attitude of punk. It spotlights unyielding female vocals, tight melodic guitars, booming bass and hard-hitting percussion. In July 2012 the group was once again selected as Ernie Ball Battle of the Bands winner, performing at Warped Tour in Scranton, PA. The recognition after winning both years has giving the band the opportunity to play with National acts such as; A Skylit Drive, There for Tomorrow, Terrible Things, Transit, Motionless in White, Born of Osiris, iwrestledabearonce, Egypt Central, Art of Dying, Candlelight Red, Fozzy, Enter Shikari, letlive, and Falling in Reverse.

 

John the Conqueror  - from Philadelphia, PA.
“It’s all smokestacks, greasy ball bearings, mudslides, and corn liquor swilled from mason jars; raggedly scorching guitar riffs, a thunderous rhythm section, and howled vocals. ‘Say What You Want’ rockets me off my rear every time​"
- Brian Green - Happening Magazine (UK)
“I was asked a short while ago for my top ten albums of the year. This one is in there somewhere. And let me tell you, it has been a good year for music!​
- Dave Goodwin - Penny Black Music (UK)
“This band is two-thirds Mississippi and one-third Philly, and on this album (reviewed a couple of months ago by John the Founder) you'll hear a perfect mix of delta blues soul and grit. I got a chance to see them in Raleigh in November, and it was easily one of the best shows I saw in oh-12. As if Pierre Moore's distorted blues guitar and soulful voice weren't enough to convince you, the influences shown by their choice of live covers mark them as fully authentic. Don't miss them if they hit your town."

Satellites Fall - from New England
“Satellites Fall has released the blueprint for things to come. An exceptionally produced example of what happens when a group of serious and professional minded guys follow their hearts into the recording studio. Five tracks that sound a bit like a cage match between Radiohead, Coldplay and the Foo Fighters in which the quirkiness of Radiohead and the pop sensibilities of Coldplay come out on top" - George Dow - The Deli Magazine - New England




 
Devise- from NJ/PA

From the ashes of two of Philadelphia's most popular hard rock bands "The Element" and "Noosphere" comes DEVISE. Brought together by fate and an undying passion for Rock 'n' Roll. With a debut EP produced by MORGAN ROSE (Sevendust/Call Me No One) and recorded/mixed at Architekt Studio's by Mike Ferretti, the band is ready to take their show to the people.
“-All the songs are great, but they have that one song that when i play it everyone freaks out....it's a hit- Paraphrased from our producer and mentor Morgan Rose being interviewed at the Carolina Rebellion 2013 " - Matt Bishop - Blabbermouth.net



 



Billy Roach & Political Theatre - from PA
Moody.Ambitious.Relevant. Words to describe songs from Billy Roach & Political Theatre's debut album "Biology, Chemicals, and The Intangible". Formerly of the alt/rock band Overlook, Billy enters a new creative realm; writing,recording, and mixing this album joined by brother Tim Roach on Drums and Dave Filiaggi on Bass. Its an album to arrive with "perfect timing", addressing modern day societal and human issues lyrically, accompanied by atmospheric, timeless melodies. 2010's "Smoke and Mirrors" was featured internationally in televised segments of "CNN Heroes", featured in major media outlets such as Radio 104.5 and 88.5 WXPN, and landed the band opening slots for several diverse national acts including Civil Twilight, New Politics, Seven Mary Three among others. Slated for a fall 2013 release, "Biology, Chemicals, and The Intangible" will absolutely strike a nerve within you and make you FEEL something.
