I Will, I Swear, Honest

I Will, I Swear is a group that comes to us from Belgium.  The track we have for you to listen to is the song “Sleep”.  I love the piano being the key instrument.  Then about one and a half minutes in bells come in as the back ground music, this is the part of the song I love.  Then at about two minutes in an instrumental interlude comes in with the rest of the band leading into a crescendo, then back to the piano.  The singers voice is very pleasant to listen to, she has a nice tone to her voice. Very nice, I really like this song.  Be sure to check out Wild Honey Pie’s site http://www.thewildhoneypie.com/ for more Indy music news.

Little Miss Sunshine

Calab Hawley is a Harlem based artist, who has released three albums.  “Little Miss Sunshine” is from his upcoming fourth album.  This song is inspired by his eight year old niece being bullied.  The song has a good message about being who you are and not somebody else.  It kind of feels like a late ’60’s to early ’70’s style of music.  So if you are into that time period you will like this song.  Give it a listen, I think you will enjoy it.  Be sure to check out Wild Honey Pie’s website http://www.thewildhoneypie.com/ for more Indy music news.

Resident Evil Universal Attraction

This summer Universal Studios Japan is going for the first horror survival attraction in an amusement park with a Resident Evil attraction.  What a blend horror and amusement.  Anyway, the attraction will be called “Biohazard The Real”.  The people going through the attraction will have a model gun to use against the zombies and one of the characters to take out will be a 6 1/2 foot tall Tyrant, made by Shinichi Wakasa.  This sounds so cool, but I don’t think we will be getting anything like this in the U.S.

News From Metropolis America

Indie Electro Rockers Metropolis America Tell The Real Story of Young America with     New Single “A Burden Of Our Youth”

Releasing Three New Singles and Videos Between Memorial Day and Labor Day

Hopefully we will get updates on these three singles from The MuseBox when they are available.  I will also try to keep an eye out for them myself.  Until then here is Metropolis America’s website were you can listen to their current singles.  I like the sound, nice clean rock sound and the instruments don’t over power their voices, which as you know for me is a pet peeve.  Check them out, if you didn’t already know about them, you might find that this group is right for you and want to download their music, which by the way is available on their site at no charge.  Very nice guys, well played.
