  • MICHAEL SCHENKER GROUP Announces US Dates For World Tour 2022

     

    Few rock guitarists on this planet have had such a lasting influence on so many renowned musicians as MICHAEL SCHENKER. With his outstandingly fluid style, inexhaustible wealth of ideas, and instinctive feel for hooks and melodies, MICHAEL SCHENKER is a living legend who, despite his longstanding and distinguished history, still impresses with his unflagging energy and drive. The blond stringsman from Sarstedt, Germany (near Hanover) began his international career in the early 1970s with the Scorpions, achieved worldwide fame after joining British rock group U.F.O., and then seamlessly continued his exceptional global success story under his own name, as well as with acts such as MICHAEL SCHENKER GROUP (otherwise known as MSG), Temple Of Rock, and MICHAEL SCHENKER Fest. SCHENKER and his career, which has spanned more than five decades, are absolute exceptions in the otherwise short-lived music industry.

     

    To celebrate his latest MSG album, Universal, scheduled for release on May 27th through Atomic Fire Records, as well as his 50th anniversary of recording, MSG will embark upon an extended US tour this Fall. The trek will run from September 27th through November 6th. See all confirmed dates below.

  • PRONG at Palladium Times Square 3/18/22

    Groovy Hard rock really closed to an old school mid tempo thrash metal vibe it was what we experience this past Friday night when veterans Prong came onto the Palladium stage.

     

    This was our second time shooting the band and the major difference was the lineup change on the drummer spot. The former went to a Lamb of god and the current came from a local band Sunlord. 

     

    Over all i thought they they were tight and always pushing together towards the heaviness of their music but they need more lights because we need to take better pictures of Tommy Victor jumping around. Read more

  • HED (PE) at The Gramercy Theatre 3/21/22

    ‘25+ years it took us to finally be in front of Hed PE, a band from Huntington, CA that plays  a mixture of Reggae and Hardcore + more. 

     

    It was awesome.

     

    The combination of styles makes a night full of groove and violence gives you the option to rest up if you are in the mosh pit. 

     

    If you are looking for new ways to enjoy metal music, you should definitely check this band out as they have a vast catalog available out there which is everywhere. 

     

    Hope to see them comeback around in another tour sometime soon because they were inspiriting.‘

  • CVLTVS BLACK at Palladium Times Square 3/18/22

    “We caught this band opening the event for Prong and Overkill the other night at Palladium Times Square.

     

    It was kinda dark at all times so between the photo pit people and the strobe lights i couldn’t appreciate much their custom apparel that made a lot difficult to photograph them but i can tell a bit about their music which was great. 

     

    They were brought their sounds with a lot of influences of Slipknot and such bands but i could definitely hear more elements that made the music standout from above their influences.

     

    It was the first time in front of the band so i hope i have a new chance because now i will know where to point my camera.
