The Lack of Song Quality in Today’s Rock Acts

Gene Simmons continues to claim that rock is dead. The ongoing dialogue by Simmons and others on this topic fascinates me, because the lack of song quality in today's rock acts rarely, if ever, enters the          conversation in this debate. In an article in Metal Injection by Greg Kennelty, Kennelty takes on Simmons' point of view on the life or death matter, and while I don't believe that fans killed the genre due to streaming, a Simmons opinion, some subscribers to Metal Injection offered their reason for the lack of dominance in the genre. While I respect some of [...]

Is Rock Dead? No. And It Never Was.

Question. Is rock dead? No, rock is not dead. It never was and it probably never will be. Saying that rock is dead is a cop-out. I am responding to an article titled, “We Asked a Top A&R Executive If Rock Is Really Dead,” by Digital Music News. Is rock dead? The topic is a good one, but the people who are tasked to answer this question come up short. And while there are some responses that help to answer this question, the answers don’t suffice. I’ll spare the people who don’t like to read long blog entries and give them their immediate [...]

Lorenzo Tour Dates Announced – Hitting Midwest and East Coast Beginning in May

Lorenzo will be heading out on the road in May in support of their latest album, Ignition. The tour, which hits the Midwest and East Coast in May and June, brings the band back to the more conventional style of touring, rather than playing spots dates like they did last year with Fuel.  Marko, lead singer and guitarist of Lorenzo, is undoubtedly happy going out on tour for an extended period of time."It's been too long since we've been out for a string of dates," says Marko.  "What's exciting is that we're going to a bunch of places that we have never played.

Lorenzo’s “Ignition” Out Now and Draws Sparks at Radio

Lorenzo's long-awaited new album, "Ignition," is out, and as expected, gaining traction at radio. It's very early in the game for "Ignition," but fans and radio alike are reacting enthusiastically to the new disc.  Spearheaded by the group's first single and video, "Not Ready to Say I'm Sorry Yet," Lorenzo has picked up airplay heavily in the midwest and east, including Canada.  Spins have been steadily increasing and there is no reason why the momentum won't continue into the western region.Led by singer/guitarist, Marko, the band has been redefined over the last year with the likes of Stuart McConnell (guitar), Aaron Farrier (drums) [...]
