A Killer's Confession, the band led by vocalist Waylon Reavis, is back with their much-anticipated sophomore album, The Indifference Of Good Men.

The new record was produced by Sahaj Ticotin (Starset, Sevendust, MEYTAL) in Los Angeles, CA. It was released last Friday, October 18, via Wake Up! Music Group, and features the most recent band's single Numb.

With The Indifference Of Good Men, A Killer's Confession has constructed one of the most high octane, adrenaline fueled, gut wrenching albums of the year.

The Indifference Of Good Men is equal parts beauty and tragedy and takes the listener on a journey to the edge of insanity and back.

Formed in 2016 in Cleveland, OH, A Killer's Confession is led by vocalist Waylon Reavis and consists of Morgan Bauer (drums), JP Cross (bass), and Mark Alexander (guitar) and Brock Star (lead guitar).

The genesis of September Mourning started in a dark New York basement, where a young girl discovered her father's old comic book collection and quickly became enraptured by the stories, especially the characters and arcs in the Batman series.

"'The Killing Joke' is still my favorite comic book" says band leader and creative driving force Emily Lazar (AKA September). The stories and characters helped turn Lazar into a life-long artist across several mediums –including ballet, story-telling, visual art, and music. She has combined those various talents into a living and breathing, graphic-novel-come-to-life with her band of Reapers in September Mourning. With the release of their new single and video Unholy, they continue to forge ahead with their aural and visual extravaganza.

Unholy was produced by Sahaj Ticotin (Motley Crue The Dirt Soundtrack, Starset, Sevendust, MEYTAL) and Nick Scott (Asking Alexandria, Bless the Fall, I See Stars), with mixing by Chris Lord-Alge (Linkin Park, Gren Day, Of Mice and Men). The song's scorching guitar riffs and sing-song chorus breakdowns tell a tale of a love so strong that it is fatally addicting. Unholy raises the band's artistry to a new level and will make for an anthemic addition to an already compelling live show. The band is currently on tour with Flaw before seguing to the Smile Empty Soul tour in late August.

As Strange As Angels -the passion project of former Murder FM front man Norman Matthew- have released a new single and video Miracle as a follow up to their Top 40 Active Rock track Mirror Mirror (from last April's EP of the same name).

The song was co-written and produced by Sahaj Ticotin (Ra, Motley Cure, Starset, Sevendust, Meytal).

Norman says of Miracle: "Coming off the success of Mirror Mirror, the bar has been set and the pressure is high for the forthcoming single and video Miracle. Up to this point, Mirror Mirror was by far, the biggest evolution for me musically, lyrically, melodically and spiritually. I connected my soul to the song in ways I never thought I could. Miracle as a song, has a heavy and dark elegance to it. Video director Michael Carter and I wanted to bring the story and vibe of the song to life. Miracle taps into my own feelings of love -of searching for and waiting on my Miracle partner to arrive.

Miracle is an Alternative Rock anthem with a soul, addictive and emotional like everything Mr. Ticotin is involved in.

MEYTAL is an American rock band, formed in Los Angeles, CA in 2013. It was founded by YouTube sensation – Israeli drummer Meytal Cohen.

The release of the band's debut album Alchemy in 2015 established MEYTAL as one of the most exciting forces in heavy music today, when upon its release, the album peaked at No. 1 on the Billboard Top Heatseekers Chart, No. 5 on the Hard Rock Albums Chart, and No. 7 on the Independent Albums Chart.

The new, second MEYTAL album The Witness, (released last Friday, April 5, marks the beginning of a new journey for the band, one that began last year when the band parted ways with singer Eric Emery, following a full US tour alongside heavy rock giants Queensryche.

Taking over vocal duties for the new album is Sahaj Ticotin, vocalist/guitarist/producer of the rock band Ra, who also produced the album: "At the end of a long-ass and most frustrating singer search, I found that the right person was there all along! The one person who was most involved in this project, who wrote the songs with me and produced Alchemy, Sahaj Ticotin. There's definitely a spiritual connection there and I'm insanely lucky to have him sing on The Witness".

Just as Alchemy, The Witness was funded by the band's fans: "Being able to create records completely independently through fan support is an incredible experience. I truly believe this is the most authentic, most empowering way to create music. I feel incredibly blessed to have been able to forge my own path with the support of my fans from the very first YouTube video to my own original albums."

The Witness is an awesome alternative rock/metal record from start to finish: full of great ideas and excellent musicianship as it is, I'm sure will rank high on many end-of-year playlists. Stream/buy it now clicking on the image.

Dallas, Texas based As Strange As Angels is former Murder FM front man Norman Matthew's passion project. He has released a new single Mirror Mirror, and it's already been added to Spotify's Rock Hard and Loudwire's Weekly Wire playlist. The single is also the title track from the forthcoming debut EP, which drops on April 26.

After Murder FM went on hiatus in 2016, Norman focused on raising his son after a divorce rocked his personal life.  While juggling the work of running his music school, The Sound Foundation, and his fatherly duties, he found the turmoil that he was going through was beginning to come out in the music that he was writing.  "For the first time, rather than speaking to the song, I let the song speak to me. I had never written lyrics that were a parallel of my life. Then I realized, I have a voice, and I need to be a voice for the voiceless."  

The result of that reflection is the new 4 song EP Mirror Mirror, which Norman has aptly dubbed "heart rock": From the heart, for the heart, by the heart. Say what you feel, and feel what you say.

The title track was co-written and produced by former RA front man Sahaj Ticotin (Starset, Sevendust, Meytal). The other 3 tracks - Love and Death (which features CJ Pierce Of Drowning Pool on guitar), Days Go Bye, and Right Beside You were produced by Norman and Mick Kenney (Motionless In White).  The recording features a heavy and melodic sound that is instantly familiar and yet unique - and is unlike most of the other music that is currently out in the Rock world.

In related news, the deluxe version of Ra's last studio album, Critical Mass, got pushed back to January 13 to permit Sahaj to finish working on the debut album for Meytal Cohen, featuring Eric Emery from Concordia on vocals, Travis Montgomery of Threat Signal on guitar and a guest solo from Doc Coyle of God Forbid. Sahaj co-wrote, produced, engineered and mixed the album, and also played guitar, bass, did backup vocals for Eric and a feature on one song called Behind These Walls.

Critical Mass was originally released in October 2013 and the deluxe edition will feature 3 unreleased songs from the album sessions and the more recent I'm Not An Angel.

"I'm Not An Angel" is an excellent new song from alternative rockers Ra, that will be included in the upcoming Deluxe Edition of the Californian outfit's latest full-length studio album "Critical Mass," originally released in October 2013.
A little background on "I'm Not An Angel", straight from the mouth of band leader Sahaj Ticotin:
"After finishing Critical Mass we had 3 more unreleased songs with everyone playing on them but I had noticed that everything on the album was pretty hyped and heavy and that we didn't really do a ballad or so. When the idea of doing the deluxe version of Crit Mass came up I thought it would be good if it had one so I wrote "I'm Not An Angel" which is kinda the follow up for "On My Side". This song, like "Taken" is about death but from the perspective of the person who died. Not really sure why it came out of me but it feels real. The rest of the songs will be released with the deluxe album but since it got pushed back I wanted to get this out now. I hope you like it. Please share if you do."
