Endtime Signals channels all the anxiety, fear, and confusion of the world into 12 captivating, empowering tracks.
Endtime Signals is catharsis and darkness, determination, and approbation. The reinvigorated lineup - Joakim Strandberg Nilsson (drums), and Christian Jansson (bass) join Mikael Stanne (vocals), Martin Brändström (keyboards), Johan Reinholdz (guitars) - signifies a new era is upon Dark Tranquillity. Featuring an eye-catching cover by Sundin and a “lived-in” production by Brändström (Rogue Music) and engineering by Alexander Backlund (Fascination Street Studios), as well as a high-octane mix and master by Jens Bogren (Ihsahn, At The Gates), the album parlays all of Dark Tranquillity’s innovatory songcraft into an unparalleled wide-angled experience.

Degreed have shared the stage with greats like Europe, Turbonegro, Millencolin among others and they have been touring and gaining fans all over the world. Throughout their career, they ve worked with notable producers such as Erik Lidbom and Grammy Award winning singer/songwriter Bill Champlin (former singer of Chicago, songwriter for Earth, Wind and Fire etc.) In 2014 the band opened for Dan Reed Network in Sweden followed by a European tour with Machinae Supremacy. In 2016 the band teamed up with Greenwall Management and Gain/Sony Music to reach new heights in their career and it s a new, more powerful Degreed than ever before ready to take on the world. Degreed just recently released the new single Shakedown and the new self- titled album "Degreed".

orway's COME TASTE THE BAND (CTTB for sake of ease) is of course named after that legendary DEEP PURPLE album of the same name. Makes sense, seeing as they were originally a DP tribute band. From the beginning of "Not That Kind of Man" it is obvious where their main influence lays. The transitions, solos, song cord progression are so Purple MIII it fooled my nephew. Not to say it's bad, quite the opposite; it's actually well written and performed, just not ground breaking or terribly original…

Country / Honky Tonk / Hillbilly / Rockabilly

It’s rather ironic that a lot of the current European artists are outdoing their American counterparts when it comes to reproducing a sincere country sound. A fine example of this transition is The Country Side of Harmonica Sam and their current album ‘Open Letter To The Blues’, because it doesn’t come much more authentic than this when replicating country music from the late 50s and early 60s. With the countries of origin for this new long player stemming from Sweden, this latest guise for Harmonica Sam (real name Samuel Andersson) is one that fits splendidly as the honky tonk sound of the aforementioned periods in history is resuscitated and delivered inch perfectly as if it never went away!

29-year-old singer and pianist Ida Sand didn't feel rushed to start a solo career: Born into a musical family – her father was an opera singer, her mother a church musician – she studied music in Stockholm and then worked with a large number of Swedish musicians, honing her skills. One of these musicians was Nils Landgren, who gave Sand ample opportunity to show her talent on the latest release of his Funk Unit, Licence to Funk, and now that she has finally recorded an album under her own name, Landgren is on board as a producer and also guests on a number of songs.
