Philadelphia Alternative/Rock band 1FM have a new EP, Burning Bridges, which will be released on May 19th (it's currently available for pre-order through iTunes). The trio (Tim Laigaie, Nick Passio, and Joe Altomari) are veteran musicians who came together after 2011 to do what they love - creating great music. Not beholden to labels, stifling contracts, or pressure from managers and others, 1FM have knocked out a lot of great songs, and have chosen the best of those to be on their upcoming album.
From the band:
"We are so proud to share what we have made. This is what is inside of us. We hope everyone will see what we see. With some help from out other friends and family, we cannot wait to continue making and releasing music. Tell your friends, because this is only the beginning of...whatever the next chapter is."
Having spent a few years show hopping in the Philly area, and spending my fair share of time in the Trocadero, I can say that 1FM has a sound that the music scene has needed for a long time - and they are definitely a band to keep an eye on, because I will put money down that you'll be hearing them in the near future.
If you want to find out more about 1FM, you can check out their official site, or get the latest news about upcoming shows, videos, and more directly from 1FM on Facebook or Twitter.
1FM's upcoming EP, Burning Bridges, will be released on May 19th, and you can pre-order it on iTunes - which you should do...like NOW!

It's not often that something completely new comes across my radar - and less frequently than that do I have a chance to review it. Tengger Cavalry recently announced their new album, Blood Sacrifice Shaman, and it will be available May 18th via Metal Hell Records.
Tengger Cavalry infuse heavy metal with traditional Mongolian folk and primal Shamanistic tradition, including chanting and the Shaman bell.
A symphony of diverse ethnic musicality and exploration, Blood Sacrifice Shaman is the next step in the evolution of the first Mongolian metal band. This is the album which takes the band full circle, as it includes as a bonus track Tengger Cavalry's very first song, recorded in 2009, representing the original hybrid philosophy behind the band.
The brainchild of composer, guitarist and vocalist Nature Ganganbaigal, Tengger Cavalry are now in their fifth year, having previously released an album per year. A band who have opened for Turisas as well as playing Beijing and New York's Strawberry Music Festival, Tengger Cavalry are a truly unique and exciting prospect in the world of international metal.
For the latest news from Tengger Cavlry, you can follow the band on Facebook as well as Twitter.
Now, I want you to get in a car, get on a horse, get on a bike, run through the woods - it doesn't matter. I just want you to go forward, as fast as you will allow yourself to go. When you are done listening I want you to stop and feel your pulse, take in the world around you and where you have been. Then I want you to listen to the tracks again and again until you want nothing but rest. I love this music and what my imagination paints while listening to it.
Educational background provided by the band:
Tengger
is the name of the sky god of Mongolian grassland. Created
in 2009 by the bandleader Nature
Ganganbaigal in China, Tengger
Cavalry blends overtone throat singing, Mongolian
horse-head fiddle and other nomadic music tradition
of North-Asia with heavy metal music, creating an unique
music genre – Mongolian folk metal.
After
the release of four studio albums in Europe and United States,
Tengger Cavalry has become known as one of the most unique,
innovative and exciting metal bands in Asia.
Sometimes I get in the mood for Rock n' Roll. Not nu-metal, not punk, not shoegaze - but something with solid guitars, a driving beat, and vocals that make me want to get in a fast car, roll down the windows, crank the volume, and take off to who knows where. The kind of rock I would consider timeless.
Queen City Heist's new song, Tangerine Dream, has all of that - taking cues from soul and funk - and mixing them together to make a sound I've not heard since I picked up a Little Caesar (don't look that up - you'll put a date on it, and some of my tats are older than you).
If that song doesn't get you pumped, you're probably dead. I actually had to stop listening to the song to write this, because it's impossible to listen to Queen City Heist without being filled with kinetic energy to do something - fight, dance, drive really fast, have lots of loud sex, clean the house (you're a wild one), anything! It's impossible to stay still!
Want more? Of course you do! The first taste is always free!
You can follow Queen City heist on Facebook, Instagram, and keep up with the latest news over on the official Queen City Heist site and Twitter. Queen City Heist's Tangerine Dream is available on iTunes, which you should all be downloading and listening to (don't make me come over there) right now!
New York pop/hip-hop artist Seldom Seen is back with a new single, Up In The Lights.
Heard on the radio and in dance clubs all over the world, Seldom Seen skyrocketed with hits like 2007's Stilettos, Sweat Tonight (Shake It Baby) - which gained him a sponsorship from Germany's K1X fitness clothing line, and Bring It On, which was the featured track for the game Narc on the XBox. You may have also caught Seldom Seen's It Might Be Worth It on Blue Mountain State on Spike TV.
Seldom Seen combines infectious beats with witty lyrics that combine universal themes while being culturally relevant and holding up a funhouse mirror to society. It's impossible not to dance to this, and the tune will stay with you and make you want it to keep going.
Seldom Seen's Up In The Lights is available on iTunes, and if you're not already hearing it in clubs and on the radio, tell them to start playing it. You can follow Seldom Seen on Twitter for the latest news and show dates, and check out even more songs and videos on his YouTube channel.
For those familiar with Sonic Radiation, you know he's been putting out new and innovative electronic music since 2003. The Dallas-based artist never forgets his roots - drawing from classic industrial groups like Front Line Assembly and Front 242, and being able to use that to forge new territory, seeing where the state of the genre is now, and what it could (and should) be.
Sonic Radiation's music can be found on Amazon and iTunes, and having heard the new track, Ionized, I can say that I'm a convert. This is the type of music I want to be played at clubs, and this particular track has many intricate layers - the type of music I would listen to for dancing, contemplating the sky at night, or even as a background soundtrack for playing Tempest 2000.
If you want to learn more about Sonic Radiation, and listen to more of his music or see some of the awesome videos, you should head on over to the official Sonic Radiation site, now, and prepare to nuke your mind.
