Soft Cyanide is the solo effort of singer/songwriter Devin Barrus. Known for his heavyweight rock vocal style in Former Tides, the singer set out to write, record, and release his own music in a pop based market.

Influenced by such bands as Keane, PVRIS, Anberlin, Depeche Mode, Copeland, Paramore, The 1975, Soft Cyanide blends electronic sampling, synthesizers, infectious pop melodies and clean guitar leads to create a personal sound.

Soft Cyanide should have debuted last November 18 with an independently released EP but, following the overwhelming response to the songs showcased so far, Devin decided to put out this EP in a much more effective and marketable strategy to reach further than just his fanbase.

I will keep you updated on this matter, meanwhile stream the 4 singles available on SoundCloud or Spotify and check the videos released so far clicking on the image.

San Diego rockers Angels & Airwaves have released their much anticipated music video for "Surrender", the lead single off their latest album "Love Part Two". Watch it now by clicking on the image. "Surrender" was shot in Los Angeles at the old Herald Examiner Building, and at the La Mirage dry lakebed outside of Barstow. Set amongst opposing scenes of passionate youth rioting and dancing in the streets, the video, as lead singer Tom DeLonge explains it, "is based on young revolution. The idea that young people are speaking their minds... and that young people across the Globe will still find a way to celebrate even when they're living their worst day."

The band enlisted director William Eubank to create the video, shot in LA. Eubank is previously known for teaming up with the band to create their critically acclaimed, independent feature film "Love" that was released in conjunction with the Angels & Airwaves double album "Love Part One and Two".
