We Are Proud To Announce The Signing of US Rockers NeverWake

NeverWake signs a multi-album deal with US label Melodic Revolution Records

NeverWake covers a lot of ground between Rock and Metal and have been described as blend of “Bullet for my Valentine” and “Trivium”.  The bands sophomore album “SleepWalker” is an epic album crafted at Innovation Studios with producer and engineer Mike Ofca and mastered under legendary engineer Ted Jensen at Sterling Sound.

Their style is a sinew of melodic vocals and dark guitar harmonies overtop a heavily distorted foundation. Through breakdowns and shredding leads underneath an eerie “Burtonesque” theme, they strive to unite the genres they cover.  “SleepWalker” is an amplification of NeverWake’s haunting sound, immersing the listener into a sea of instrumental complexity, including faster riffs, technical drum patterns and harmonized melodic vocality.

But there’s a twist…
This is the first step into NeverWake’s semi-conceptual series of albums. Unlike most concept albums, the music can be felt and understood regardless of knowing the underlying story. Each song on “Sleepwalker” is open for individual interpretation and stands on its own, but also has a fitting place within the script. This gives listeners a chance to enjoy the music with or without knowing the developed themes. Walk with us as the story comes to life. NeverWake has started working on their yet untitled upcoming release, in this series. NeverWake came to our attention via Dino Giovannone and Joe Macre at Atomic Cowboy Productions and Management; we feel this band is the perfect fit for Melodic Revolution Records as our goal has always been to take in great untapped hard working talent and work hand in hand to reach the next level. NeverWake has the potential of becoming the next big international act and touring band with their brand of rock-n-roll and strong musical skills.

In a Statement from the Band:
“We would like to thank Melodic Revolution Records for taking interest and believing in NeverWake. We also would like to thank Atomic Cowboy Productions for picking us up and making this connection possible. Most importantly we want to thank our family friends and fans. We promise to bring great things to all people affiliated with NeverWake. Let’s make more awesome music!”

Transport Aerian To Release LOVE.BLOOD.LIVE

We are thrilled to announce the upcoming release by Transport Aerian is a new nine track live album called “LOVE.BLOOD.LIVE”

Transport Aerian to release its 4th album on April 22nd 2014, and the 2nd one for Melodic Revolution Records. LOVE.BLOOD.LIVE features Hamlet on Vocals, guitars, keyboards, bass, sampling, and programming as well as the addition of Stefan Boeykens on Guitars, guitar loops. This live collaboration really seems to add some brilliant textures to the fabric of the live album, which is the follow up to Bleeding released in 2013 and reissued as 24 Bit-Remaster an March 2014.

Track List:
Love, Inspire, Fog Vision, Float, Nightsky, Winter, Minor Moody, Triangle Town and Radio Void.

According to the band:
Transport Aerian had an opportunity to perform a number of live shows supporting the album Bleeding, which was released in 2013 and recently reissued in High-Definition deluxe version on Melodic Revolution Records. We are aware, however, that there are plenty of music lovers all around the world who are unable to come and see us live, as Transport Aerian have never been a ‘local’ type of band due to its musical and spiritual nature.

This brought the idea to make live recordings of the program which we are playing during our shows now, so that those who enjoy Transport Aerian but can’t attend the shows would be able to hear it, feel it and enjoy it, too. LOVE.BLOOD.LIVE, set consists of the core songs from the most recent album Bleeding, alongside with some Stefan’s instrumental compositions based on real-time guitar looping and a bit of material from project’s album Blessed (2009).
