“SQQQUUUUUUUUUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!”

That’s what I heard when Motionless In White took the stage. I turned around and it was literally a wall of girls with all eyes focused on the band and every girl screaming their love for MIW. It didn’t stop for over ten minutes. These girls were swooning the entire time. Eyeliner was running down their faces in joy as they watched the band perform.

The band’s new album Graveyard Shift is now available and features the Single “Loud”. Click on any photo below to open the gallery and scroll below the photos to watch the music video for “Loud”.

Nothing More arguably had the best performance at the two day festival. Opening with “Christ Copyright” and then playing new music from their upcoming album which they said would be released in September, Nothing More demanded everyone’s attention with their fierce sound and impressive stage display. On top of that, they brought out their engineering skills with the new Scorpion Tail which left jaws on the ground at Metropolitan Park.

Nothing More will be touring through the US for the rest of May and then heading to Europe this summer. Tour dates can be found on their Facebook page: Nothing More’s Official Facebook.

New music from Nothing More will be released from the upcoming album in the following weeks. Click on any photo below to open the gallery and scroll below the photos to watch the music video for their song “Jenny” from their self-titled debut.

Chevelle closed out the Metropolitan Stage on day two at Welcome To Rockville. As I walked into the photo pit I can’t begin to tell you just how many people were there crammed against the barricade wearing Chevelle t-shirts. The band opened with “Take Out The Gunman” and a swarm of crowd surfers all dumped into the photo pit over the next few minutes.

The band just announced a headlining tour that will be travelling through the US this summer. Tour dates can be found at their website getmorechevelle.com. Click any photo to open the gallery and scroll below the photos to see the live video for “Take Out The Gunman”.

In This Moment are embarking on the second half of their “Half God Half Devil” tour and featuring new music from their upcoming album hopefully due later this year. One of the upcoming songs is “River Of Fire” which definitely has the wild delivery that shows up Maria Brink’s range in singing as well as a strong beat. We will be posting more information on the album when available. Upcoming tour dates can be found on their website www.inthismomentofficial.com.

That being said, most people that have ever seen In This Moment live know what a spectacle it is. Different outfits for every song. Smoke cannons and murderous dancers. Randy Weitzel being dragged around by Maria. It’s something to behold. Click any photo below to see the gallery and scroll below the photos to see their most recent music video for “The Fighter”.
