Serianna just wrapped up in the studio for their new album “Define Me” with producer Josh Schroeder, who is responsible for new albums from For Today and The Color Morale. The new music is as heavy as ever and incredibly emotional as their fans have come to expect, much like their latest single “Deadweight” released this past October. The 13 song album “Define Me” will be released on August 13, 2013 on Bullet Tooth through Ingrooves/Fontana.  Serianna kicks off a US tour with In Dying Arms on August 6. All dates below.

The first music video for “Exist To Outlive” premieres on VEVO today!  Guitarist and songwriter Kris Meyer-Ruef checked in about the video, “Working with Sam Link on this video was great, he’s always done amazing work for us. This is a fresh face and a fresh start for us and we couldn’t wait to share our new music and our new energy with everyone!”

Kris Meyer-Ruef commented on the new album, “The Inheritors record was almost 3 years in the making by the time we had the pleasure of releasing it on Bullet Tooth. It seems only natural that at least 4 years since the birth of that record, Serianna is due for serious growth. Over the past year, we have gone through a major line up change and thought hard about the future of our band. It was pretty apparent  to any fan of our band before that we were heavily rooted in metal core, influenced by the bands that could riff the tightest and fastest. We operated like a well oiled machine, tight and uniform. But that was just the problem: we operated like a machine. This new record has given us all the opportunity to pour our hearts into our music in a way that we felt was impossible before. Every one of us has a voice, and you will hear that through every song on this record. We went heavier, groovier, darker and more honest. I know deep down that kids are still looking for something real to fall in love with. We genuinely believe these songs are just that.”

Singer and lyricist Chris Nutting also commented, “I’m so excited for the world to hear this album because every song has a catchy hook that will get stuck in your head. That has always been a huge selling point for me with the music that I listen to, and I feel that it is such an important element to have in song writing. We wanted to write an album that would not only be fun to listen to, but also be a great experience to see live. You can bounce up and down to just about every song on the record. Each one of us played a role in writing lyrics, pulling influence from past experiences. You’ll be able to relate to these lyrics in one way or another. I couldn’t be more proud of how this album came together.”

Serianna recently released their new music video for their new single “Lose Yourself“!  The song, originally by Eminem, premiered recently at AltPress.com and is available for download at iTunesAmazonSpotify, and everywhere else music is available. The music video was filmed while the guys were on tour by director and close friend Sam Link (Sleeping With Sirens, Decoder). The video is streaming NOW on YouTube.
 
The debut album “Inheritors” from Serianna (Madison, WI) is available everywhere NOW!  Fans can listen to the songs “Fragments” and “Guilty Spark” at their Facebook page, and watch a live music video for “Virtues” directed by Sam Link (Sleeping With Sirens, Decoder) from the recent Motel 6 “Rock Yourself To Sleep” Tour.  Their songs “Fragments” and “Inheritors” are also available NOW on Rock Band for Xbox 360.  The band has recently been on tour with Alesana, A Skylit Drive, Sleeping With Sirens, Affiance, Memphis May Fire, Attila, and more!  Dates with In Dying Arms

Death Ray Vision
Fall Tour w/ Special Guests Sworn Enemy & Acaro
“We Ain’t Leavin’ Till You’re Bleedin'”
Debut 12 Song Album out September 10, 2013 featuring Brian Fair from Shadows Fall on Vocals
Produced by Dean Baltulonis (Sick Of It All, Agnostic Front)
Death Ray Vision currently has the #1 Metal Song on Music Choice!
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Current members of Killswitch Engage and Shadows Fall and ex members of Overcast and Cannae have combined forces in the project Death Ray Vision and their debut 12 song album “We Ain’t Leavin’ Till You’re Bleedin’” will be released on Bullet Tooth on September 10, 2013.  Kicking off on September 13 the band will play select East Coast dates with Sworn Enemy and Acaro on the “Raging Semi-Tour”. The first date to be announced is September 14 at The Palladium in Worcester, MA. More dates to be announced!
 
These veterans of the Boston metal scene play a raw brand of metallic hardcore that recaptures the energy of their old school hardcore roots infused with all they have learned and experienced as musicians over the past decade. Produced by legendary hardcore guru Dean Baltulonis who has helmed albums for Sick Of It All, Agnostic Front, Madball and Most Precious Blood, these new songs are short blasts of energy and intensity built on thrash metal rhythms and chugging guitar riffs. 
 
“Its a swift 30-minute kick to the nuts. No fucking around and 
right to the point.” – Brian Fair (Shadows Fall / DRV Vocalist)
 
 
You say you like circle pits? You say you like Punk and Hardcore? You say you hate your parents? Well this is the band for you! Pissed off and abrasive, Death Ray Vision is dedicated to that old skool passion and aggression you still crave. If you’re a fan of Cro-Mags, Leeway, Suicidal Tendencies or Bad Brains, then look no further. Without fail, Death Ray Vision delivers uppercuts straight to your gullet, then repeatedly peppers your forehead with sledgehammer fists. That’s right, the beatings are swift and pummeling on this record, with 2 minute anthems of ruckus chaos, party jams. The perfect soundtrack to set the city a blaze, or discreetly create a mosh pit in your bedroom. Fans can hear a sample of the new song “Barfly” on the Bullet Tooth Summer 2013 Video Update!
 
“Break out your boom box and get ready to shred that mini ramp kids … The Energizer Bunny 
has nothing on Death Ray Vision.” – Mike D (Killswitch Engage / DRV Bassist)
 
 
Death Ray Vision “We Ain’t Leavin’ Till You’re Bleedin’” Track List:
 
01. We Ain’t Leavin’ Till You’re Bleedin’
02. Over My Dead Body
03. Barfly
04. Condemned When You Were Born
05. Fuck Compromise
06. Live Fast… Never Die
07. Break Every Chain
08. This Is Progress
09. Choke
10. Your Shallow Grave
11. False Prophet
12. A Forest (Of Kegs)
 
 
Their debut 5 song EP “Get Lost Or Get Dead” was released on Bullet Tooth in 7″ Vinyl, Digipack CD, and digital download formats on May 14, 2013.  Buy the Digipack CD, 7″ Vinyl, and Tee Shirts at MerchNow, download at iTunesAmazon, or Emusic, and stream at Spotify and Rdio. The first song “Shattered Frames” can be streamed at YouTube
 
According to vocalist Brian Fair, “When Mike and I first met, we went to see Leeway and Breakdown play in Boston.  My love for raw, metallic hardcore began that day and the energy and insanity in that club is something that has stayed with me forever.”
 
After breaking their silence onstage at local Boston hardcore shows, Death Ray Vision entered Mad Oak Studio in MA with producer Benny Grotto to record their debut EP “Get Lost Or Get Dead”.  The recording, which the band self released, captured the raw energy and emotion of the band combined with a modern production, seamlessly bridging the gap between the past and future.  The sessions were the creative spark that inspired the band to continue writing and see how far they could push their sound.
 
“We started the band to have fun, there is really no other reason to do Death Ray Vision,” states bassist Mike D.  “Apparently we were having so much fun when we started writing for the 1st EP that we just kept writing and writing. All of a sudden, we had a crap load of tunes.”    
 
While gathering material for a full length release, Death Ray Vision caught the attention of Bullet Tooth, a label that has a staff with very similar backgrounds and history in the heavy music scene as the band.  Having a label that embraces the same DIY ethic as the band was a necessity. Joining forces with Bullet Tooth was the perfect way for Death Ray Vision to reach a wider audience without having to sacrifice the independent spirit of the band.
 
Josh Grabelle and Bullet Tooth have the capacity to get our record out to more people then we can reach on our own,” explains Mike D. “It also doesn’t hurt that he is an old friend and is really excited about DRV. What more could you want?”
 
Grabelle is as enthusiastic about the signing as the band is. He’s known the members for years, almost signing Killswitch Engage in 2000. “I’m a huge fan of Shadows Fall, Killswitch Engage, and Overcast,” he said. “I first met Brian Fair in 1995 at an Overcast show in Erie, PA. I’ve been friends with Mike D for years as well.  Mike D told me he had started a new band and I already knew it was gonna be awesome, and it was! I was honored they thought of me and Bullet Tooth and I know we will knock it out of the park together.” The exclusive signing announcement and DRV interview is located at MetalInsider.com.
 
Death Ray Vision recalls the insanity of the old hardcore days while remaining focused on destroying the future and is currently the #1 Metal Band on Music Choice!

The Paramedic (Bullet Tooth) and One Year Later (CI Records) will be heading out on tour this June, presented by Artery Global. The tour kicks off June 13th in Illinois. “We couldn’t be more excited to be hitting the road with One Year Later. We’re looking forward to making new friends and fans and seeing some familiar faces along the way!”, said The Paramedic vocalist Mike Luciano.
The Paramedic just released their Bullet Tooth debut album “Smoke & Mirrors”! The metalcore album is lighting the internet on fire with polarizing talk from fans and hit #8 on the iTunes Metal Chart. Their new music video for “Eddie Would Be Proud” is streaming now at YouTube.  Intensity, emotion and raw power are three ways to describe Dayton, OH’s The Paramedic. But to pigeon hole the band with just three words would simply be an injustice to this group. Formed in late 2010 by friends Jake Nolan (Guitar), Travis Adkins (Bass), Tony Hovater (Drums), Sean Salasny (Guitar) and Mike Luciano (Lead Vocals); The Paramedic is poised to spearhead the next generation of dynamic metalcore bands, thanks in part to Luciano’s diverse R&B background. The band delivers a unique mix blending the insanity of Asking Alexandria, the electro-sensibilities of Attack Attack, and the soulfulness of Jonny Craig.
 
Living the dream is a philosophy that Mike Luciano and the guys thrive to live out on a daily basis and will have nothing stand in their way. Against his parents’ wishes, Luciano dropped out of college to pursue his dream of making it in the world of music. This intense internal struggle has made Luciano’s lyrics a personal one-of-a-kind statement that range from raising awareness towards rape to standing up for what you believe in. Judging by the nearly 300,000 views of their cover of Lil’ Wayne’s “6 Foot 7 Foot” on YouTube and their 50,000+ fans on Facebook, all of the hard work and life altering decisions have been worth it.
 
In early 2012, the bands’ dream finally came together when New Jersey based record label, Bullet Tooth, signed The Paramedic to a deal. Joining other acts such as AffianceSerianna, Death Ray Vision and more, the band is sure to reach new audiences that they only ever dreamed about. “It’s been our dream to not only be signed to a label, but also to a label that we know and trust and with Bullet Tooth, we know we are getting just that” said vocalist Mike Luciano
 
The band was recently on The Rock Yourself To Sleep Tour with Dance Gavin Dance, and has been on the road consistently with Design The Skyline, With Life In Mind, and many more.
 
“Gracing God with the angels on his highs,  Mike’s screaming talents far 
outweigh many of the vocalists in the scene today.” – A Year In Reviews

Cleveland’s AFFIANCE will tour the US with Killswitch Engage, As I Lay Dying, and Miss May I from May 30 to July 8! This will be the first time Affiance has hit most of these cities since their new album “The Campaign” was released. All dates below!
The new Affiance album “The Campaign” has had a successful first few weeks! Some great sales numbers have charted them at #7 Heatseekers, #7 Top New Artist, #37 Top Hard Albums, and #53 Top Indie Albums. Singer Dennis Tvrdik commented, “We are absolutely stoked that we charted on Billboard! Our fans are insanely supportive and believe in us not only as a band but as people. Thank you to everyone who bought The Campaign. We are forever grateful!”
Affiance will hit the UK for the first time this May with Dance Gavin Dance and Closure In Moscow! The tour will kick off May 7 and run through May 19 and the band couldn’t be more excited to finally play for all their UK fans.  See all dates below.
 
Dennis Tvrdik commented on the new album (Produced by Carson Slovak at Atrium Audio who has recently finished records for August Burns RedTexas In July), The Campaign is multiple levels above No Secret Revealed in every area. The vocals, the drums, the guitars, the recording quality, the song structure, the variety… We couldn’t be happier or more confident with a sophomore album. It almost feels like we skipped a release between the two albums! There is not a doubt in my mind that this will be a game changer for us and will open many doors to opportunities otherwise closed off from us.” 
 
The band has recently been featured in Hails And Horns Magazine and Outburn Magazine and more, and recently appeared AS A CARTOON (yes, a cartoon) in a new interview with South Africa’s MK Ondergrond! The interview appeared on national SA television but can be seen on YouTube along with recent interviews with In Flames and The Used.  Singer Dennis Tvrdik talks about their hometown of Cleveland, the metal and hardcore scenes, touring, music videos, and more. 

Affiance have recently wrapped up US tours with Memphis May Fire, Close Your Eyes, Serianna, Modern Day Escape, The Color Morale, Stray From The Path, Vanna, This Or The Apocalypse and Deception Of A Ghost.
