We recently done an interview with Scream Blue Murders vocalist Aaron Bloomer.

Check them out here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GjtZ3ykLUpM

1. How did you come up with the name 'Scream Blue Murder'?

Scream Blue Murder is when you scream in protest. Or in Australia we found it means orgasm haha.

2. What's the most unusual experience you've had at a gig?

The most unusual experience is we went to a fans house in Iowa after the show. They said it was only down the road but it ended up being 2 hours away in a cornfield! We got to hold their guns and explore the barn that looked like something out of the saw films. Nice guys though!

3. What was the best music video to film?

I think so far for the cinematic reasons we are survivors but for the most fun I’d say restart rewind reset because for the whole thing I was drunk as f*ck!!! 

4. You've recently signed to "Stay Sick", what does that mean for you all?

The stay sick boys have been awesome! They’ve been helping us develop as a band and have supported us throughout our time with them 

5. You've supported 'Cabin Boy Jumped Ship' who are performing at Download this year, how far do you think they've come since you supported them?

I think they supported us but hey ho. They’re doing very well for themselves! Keep up the good work boys! 

6. How do you think Spotify helps musicians?

Spotify is great for music because they have the chance to get their music out there on a world wide scale! But I’m old school. I still love CD’s! 

7.What are the downsides of Spotify for musicians?

I think I answered that partially in the last question. No one really buys music anymore it’s all about streaming. 

8. What's the pros and cons of touring?

Pros of touring - partying everyday, meeting new friends, bands and fans! Playing your music live for everyone to see and seeing the sights of the world. It’s an amazing feeling. Cons? Erm, I don’t think there are any! Personally I love being on tour and escaping everyone shit going on your life and having the best time ever! 

9. What's your tips for growing?

Tips for growing - take viagra 

10.What can we expect from 'Screaming Blue Murder' in the future?

You can expect new music coming this year and a bunch of tours. We’re here to hit every country possible over the next 2 years. We’re on a mission to reach the top!

Female Drummers in The Rock and Metal Music Industry

Image
Drumming is something a lot of people are getting into. Males and females but there's not that many female drummers in rock and metal bands. There are however a lot of female drummers on YouTube posting covers such as Meytal Cohen and Kristina Schiano who really show what they can do. I interviewed a few female drummers about what it's like being a female drummer in the rock and metal music industry. Laura Cornall Who or what got you into drumming? When I first saw school of rock when I was 13 I knew I wanted to be involved in music but got into playing guitar instead of drums because my parents encouraged that more. Then I saw Jen Ledger smash it on the kit with Skillet at Download Festival I knew that's what I wanted to do so I came home and bought a kit! Do you there's enough female drummers in the rock and metal industry? Probaly not! Do you think females are put off from wanting to learn the drums? If so, why? I honestly don't know, maybe it

Altered Sky at Download Festival 2018

Download Festival is the biggest rock festival in the UK with thousands of people attending it each year to see some of their favourite bands perform on the stages. Big and small bands are given the opportunity to perform at the festival each year. This year one of the smaller bands that are making it happen at Download this year were Glasgow rockers, Altered Sky who were excited to perform to a crowd of 3000 people with new and old fans in the crowd, waiting for their performance. Not many bands get an opportunity to perform at a massive festival like this so the band jumped at the opportunity. Altered Sky currently have an album out called ‘Without Wonderland’ and have been working on their second album which they said to be “darker and heavier” so we’ll wait for that and see if it sounds like how they promised! Lauren Em told us about Altered Sky’s performance at Download Festival at the Takeover stage and here’s what she said. “Altered Sky at Download fest

LGBT musicians in the rock and metal music industry

We've decided to write this requested article about LGBT musicians in the rock and metal industry featuring interviews with LGBT musicians. NOTE: We are sorry that half of the article looks different to the rest of it (white boarder around the black font writing) there's not much that we can do about it but we're glad that it's still readable. The rock and metal music scene are the most supportive when it comes to LGBT+ as many musicians and fans are LGBT+ One of which is Lynn Gunn, who sings for the band PVRIS and is also gay. She's a huge LGBT+ inspiration as well as a music inspiration with fans calling her "the gay icon" and "gay god". Many of PVRIS's fans are LGBT+ and all feel very excepted. There was a time at a PVRIS meet and greet when a fan came out to her mum as gay by holding a sign saying she was gay and Lynn asked if she was sure she wanted to come out this way and she did. She held the sign while getting a picture with the
