• Nevermore’s Jeff Loomis On New Album Progress: “The Demos Are Now Starting To Flow”

    Nevermore guitarist Jeff Loomis has offered a new update on the band’s upcoming album. According to him, “the demos are now starting to flow a little bit.”

    Loomis told Moshpit Passion the following:

    “I’ve got a late start on [working on new music], actually, because we spent so much time getting the band together that it’s almost like — I don’t wanna say that [drummer] Van [Williams] and I got burnt out or anything, but it was… Van really wanted to get back on tour again. He was, like, ‘I wanna get back out and play again, man. I wanna play in front of people.’ So it’s kind of been backwards as we’ve approached this. But the demos are now starting to flow a little bit.

    I’ve got about six ideas going, some in the very infantile stages, some kind of complete. I think with [singer] Berzan [Önen] being able to now come over to the United States, starting in November, it’s gonna be huge because when you’re writing something, man, in today’s age, you can easily send demos back and forth via the Internet and stuff like that. But I ultimately love to work in person with people. You can really feel it and get more energy out of each other that way. So, I don’t know — in a sense, I’m just kind of waiting for that, I guess. But we wanna really utilize the six months that we have completely to make the best album of our lives. And that’s coming up between October and March, basically. That’s what our plans are. We have kind of a structure worked out of what we’re gonna do, a plan.”

  • Stitched Up Heart Share Music Video For “Dead To Me” Featuring Geena Fontanella

    Stitched Up Heart have premiered a new video for their song “Dead To Me.” The track, which features Geena Fontanella, is from the band’s latest album “Medusa.” The group commented:

    “‘Dead To Me’ is a cynical, self-destructive banger featuring Geena Fontanella. The song explores the experience of feeling so numb that no one can hurt you more than you’ve already hurt yourself. No matter how desperately you chase serotonin, there’s always a parasitic ghost lurking within, dragging you back down. When you’ve already given up hope, there’s nothing left to fear.”
