Under wraps, but that doesn't mean you can't listen to it until Xmas. It's the gift that keeps on giving the whole year round. And it sounds much sweeter than the jelly of the month club. Open your ears and you have opened another musical present. The newest and freshest Chicagoland and Illinois metal, punk, alternative and progressive rock and power pop.
Progressive Metal is a form with many definitions. Two of which are showcased here. Northwest side of Chicago four piece band Acracy doesn't play and sing it like the dominant unclean intense style of bands. With the well enunciated high pitched falsetto vocals of singer Al Rybka, they have drawn fans of different variations of the genre. Al joins me to talk about how Acracy stands out from others, as they co headline two upcoming gigs, December 15th at Reggie's Rock Club , and December 17th with Fierce Atmospheres and Hellbound Sons at Brauerhouse in Lombard.
Withering Soul combines intense, unclean vocals with extended instrumental guitar power chords and soloing. They will unleash their metal fury as a co-headlining band for Macabre's Holiday of Horror, December 18th at Reggie's I talk with singer Krystopher and the other three members, as they wow listeners with the awesome sonic rhythms of their fourth. album, Last Contact.
Breaking through musical ethnic barriers, Road's End proved that foreign and native Chicago American musicians and singers can blend well together. I interviewed them and witnessed the excellent power metal sound, five years ago this week at Wire in Berwyn. A Rockback to that.
Along with that, you're stringing up the perfect local Chicago area and Illinois rock soundtrack loud enough to strip sharp pine needles off even the tallest evergreen tree, including:
Acracy-Liberation (Control Denied)
Acracy-Book Of Faces
Hellbound Sons-Re-Take Control
Withering Soul-Ascent To Madness
Withering Soul-Carrion Reflection
Macabre-Your Window Is Open
Knoxious-DFC
Shitizen-Nada
