ASCENDING ANTHEMIC ROCK QUINTET SET LOOSE NEW SINGLE & REVEAL DEBUT ALBUM PLANS!

Fast rising modern rockers, DEAD REYNOLDS, are poised to climb even further with the release of their ultra-hooky new single, Bright Lights, out now

Check out Bright lights https://youtu.be/HESGPSkc0aE . This killer cut has been taken from the band’s hugely anticipated debut album, Breathe With Strangers, which arrives on Friday 20th August via Fort Records.

 

Ever since their explosion onto the scene at the end of 2018, DEAD REYNOLDS have gone from strength to strength. To date, the energetic fivesome have assembled an army of dedicated followers and earned the respect and praise from a plethora of tastemakers. The band have racked up widespread support for their recorded work, including last year’s sophomore EP, Frontier, which received buoyant accolades from Powerplay Magazine and Louder/Classic Rock Magazine. The release also gained extensive recognition from the likes of Maximum Volume Music, Moshville, Real Gone, Devils Gate Music, and The Punk Site, to name just a few. As well as obtaining broad acclaim for their previous EPs, the band have also notched up airtime with Kerrang! TV and Scuzz TV. DEAD REYNOLDS have also been repeatedly pioneered by Kerrang Radio’s Johnny Doom, with Johnny consistently championing the band’s singles and releases. Not only have DEAD REYNOLDS been regularly playlisted by Kerrang Radio, but the Brit anthemic rockers have also picked up worldwide radio airplay across fifteen countries, and have been played by more than two hundred radio stations. Sharing stages with everyone from Deaf Havana, Mallory Knox, and Mark Morriss (The Bluetones), as well as their own headline shows, has certainly increased their profile. The band’s Spotify streaming numbers also demonstrate their notable growth (Dead Reynolds’ last EP, Frontier, is up to 100k plays and counting).

 

DEAD REYNOLDS are now set to break out to the masses. The band will release their debut album, Breathe With Strangers, in August. The Brit modern rock crew are also primed to drop their massively captivating new single, Bright Lights. The track is an infectious piece of contagious alt-rock laced with thoughtful breakdowns, a huge refrain, and a modern tilt which demonstrates that the five-piece are unafraid to twist and reshape their sound.

Further singles and video releases are planned throughout the Spring and Summer, so watch out. DEAD REYNOLDS are destined to be one of the bands to breakthrough in 2021.

my thoughts

Bright Lights

Only one way to start the review for this track, for me bright lights is epic, it feels like its already arena written, great melody and hooks in the, guitars with a real drive and punch and I love the tones, most of all the sense this track picks up the intensity and pace really high octane energy coming off this track

Our next single this week is Toby Jepson

 

Toby Jepson found fame as the frontman/Singer/songwriter for British Rock Band Little Angels who achieved significant success in the UK, Europe and Japan Between 1989 and 1995. Today we know Toby for being a part of the incredible band Wayward sons

 

'Unwind' is the lead single taken from Wayward Sons and former Little Angels frontman Toby Jepson's forthcoming compilation album 'Viewfinder'.

 

Originally featured on his 2001 'Refresh' EP and remastered for the retrospective release 'Viewfinder' by Simon Francis (Toby and the Whole Truth 'Ignorance Is Bliss'); 'Unwind' is an up tempo contemporary rock song that's perfectly suited to lift moods and still remains fresh to the ears 20 years on.

 

Toby reflects on the making of 'Unwind' and 'Viewfinder' album in a new series of story videos, which further reveal what happened to the British singer/song writer between Little Angels splitting up and the formation of Wayward Sons:

My thoughts

Toby Jepson Unwind

Another high octane track to carry on the show with, Unwind as I have said is high octane lots of energy and thing I have picked out straight away that I love is this pop punk feel, it feels like a classic new found glory and by no means is this meat as insult to toby or new found glory.

Its catchy plenty of hooks and packed with melody, a really catchy fun track to go into the weekend with

Thank you to Rob - Stampede Press

 

Just a couple of Questions

Does anyone feel the time is approaching say in 2 months to start thinking about attending shows?

Would you be happy to wear a mask during a show?

Would you guy if a requirement is to have a private covid test?
