MARS RED SKY reveal artwork and video for new album "Stranded In Arcadia"

French stoner rock legends MARS RED SKY just unveiled the artwork of their new album "Stranded In Arcadia" (out this spring on Listenable Records), as well as its first official video "Arcadia".

After a critically acclaimed first album "Mars Red Sky" (2011) and hundreds of gigs across Europe and America, France's emblematic stoner rock trio MARS RED SKY is now taking its music to a brand new level with their long-awaited second full-length "Stranded In Arcadia". Heavier than ever, the band (formed by Julien Pras, Jimmy Kinast and Mathieu Gazeau) will take you further into its very own world of fuzz and psychedelia, a journey to a wondrous imaginary place called Arcadia...

MARS RED SKY comments: "The story about our new record is actually some sort of happy accident. While we were supposed to record at Harper Hug’s Thunder Underground Studio in Palm Springs between our South and North American tours, an issue with US customs forced us to stay in Rio de Janeiro. Our Brazilian booker Felipe Toscano introduced us to Gabriel "Bill" Zander, who instantly invited us to record at his Superfuzz studio. We locked ourselves in during four days and recorded the eight tracks of "Stranded In Arcadia". We felt like we were stuck, like stranded in a wonderful place with a lot of amazing people. The title of the record sums up this paradox: a trial that finally led us to a great experience and the making of a record which would have probably been much more different, if things happened like planned."

Jimmy Kinast adds: "The atmosphere was so spontaneous and chilled-out in the studio that we even ended jamming on the end of this track called "The Light Behind" until there was no tape left… The song "Beyond The Light" was born.

Regarding the evolution of our sound, there’s no doubt that when our drummer Matgaz joined the band, he brought a heavier and more metal touch. This feeling is pretty palpable on such tracks as "Beyond The Light", for example. Now we can’t wait to go on the road and perform our new record live!"

The band and label are currently offering MARS RED SKY's brand new limited edition 7" EP featuring the songs "Arcadia" (live at Desertfest London 2013) and "Hovering Satellites" for preorder at shop.listenable.net and www.marsredsky.bigcartel.com.

MARS RED SKY's new album "Stranded in Arcadia" is set for release on April 28th in Europe and June 10th in North America on Listenable records.

AQUA NEBULA OSCILLATOR: New occult psychedelic rock album on Tee Pee Records in November

AQUA NEBULA OSCILLATOR
"Spiritus Mundi"
Tee Pee / Alive
VÖ/Release: 08.11.2013

Das neueste Highlight auf dem US-Label TEE PEE RECORDS kommt von AQUA NEBULA OSCILLATOR, die einige von Euch vielleicht als Support von The Cults 2009er "Love"-Tour kennen.

Der trippige Occult-Psych-Rock (Man entschuldige die langsam zum Klischee verkommene Schublade, aber die Band spielt diese Musik schon seit 13 Jahren!) wurde von UFOs, Aliens, Parallel-Dimensionen, Voodoo, Ethnic Trance und weiteren Dingen des täglichen Lebens inspiriert. Packt noch Maler wie Dali und Bosch, Literaten wie Lovecraft, Ducasse und Artaud sowie diverse Horror- und Kult-Filme oben drauf, und Ihr habt ein stimmiges Gesamtkunstwerk.

"Spiritus Mundi" zeigt ANO um einiges düsterer als in der Vergangenheit.

WHEELFALL: Studio live sessions video episode 3 - "Howling" from Interzone album

Prepare to worship at the altar of the HEAVY RIFF. We are very pleased to be able to present the third episode of the WHEELFALL’s “Live Studio Sessions”. Only live music is real, no tricks, no cheatings, only the band by itself. Only the truth. This episode featured “Howling”, second track on the first Wheelfall album "Interzone".


   

Previous episodes: Ep #2, Ep #1

Formed in 2009 in Nancy, France, the original WHEELFALL lineup included Fabien W. Furter on guitar and vocals, Niko El Moche on bass, Cactus Flo on guitar and Quentin Vega on drums with their first recorded appearance being on 2010’s “From the Blazing Sky at Dusk” Ep, DIY self-released EP which made a splash in the stoner/desert rock international scene. Right after, in mid-2010, the band replaced Quentin with drummer Niko Elbow Giraud, who used to attend the loud, pounding and noisy WHEELFALL gigs.
In 2012, the new line-up cranked out the highly-celebrated “Interzone” LP, quickly followed by a split EP the month after and keep touring, managing to severely deafen metal fanatics. These three early releases defined the basis of the WHEELFALL’s style – a loud, massive and sick metal/stoner/doom mixing of thundering guitars, roaring bass, huge and heavy drums, deep gritty vocals, which each tune seeming slower than the one before it. Giving as much importance to its music than its lyrical themes, each WHEELFALL’s song is part of one and only pessimistic and speculative fiction exploring the reaction of individuals and society confronted to issues caused by its technological evolution, which trap ruthlessly the listener in the band’s world. The band is never stuck into one musical genre and its motto could be "Move forward or die like a dinosaur", so don't expect anything from the band but only what they want to do. Hymns like “Holy Sky”, “It comes from the Mist” or the 22 minutes behemoth “Interzone” are perfect examples of how wide the WHEELFALL’s musical spectrum is, and the band became instantaneously one of the driving forces of the stoner rock/metal French scene.
In 2013-2014, WHEELFALL will be steamrolling their way across France and Europe. We hope for their own sake that the Europeans are familiar with the concept of earplugs.
