  • GIRISH AND THE CHRONICLES Announce New Album “Disintegrate” & Shares Official Video For Title Track

    Today, Girish and The Chronicles are thrilled to announce the release of their new studio album, Disintegrate, out on November 20th via Frontiers Music Srl.

    Following the recent release of the latest single “Generation Coward,” the band now shares the title track, along with an official video, available below.

    The band comments: “Disintegrate is about things falling apart, whether it’s relationships, dreams, or just life in general, and trying to keep going when they do. We don’t want to talk too much about what the songs are all about. We’d rather let everyone take their own meaning from them.”

    As the title track, “Disintegrate” sits at the heart of the album and offers a glimpse into a different side of Girish and The Chronicles.

    Over the last few years, Girish and The Chronicles have evolved from one of India’s best-kept hard rock secrets into a truly international force. Fueled by extensive European touring and a widely acclaimed appearance on the hit American television show “America’s Got Talent,” the band has experienced remarkable growth, expanding its audience far beyond its homeland and earning recognition among rock fans across the globe.

    Now, with their highly anticipated new album for Frontiers Music Srl, Girish and The Chronicles take another step forward. While staying true to the melodic hard rock and classic heavy metal foundations that have always shaped their sound, the band has also explored some new territory on ‘Disintegrate.’

    The band comments: “With this album, we just wanted to play around with the sound a bit. It’s heavier, groovier, and darker in places, with some alternative elements coming through, but it still feels like GATC. We didn’t want to overthink it. We just went with what sounded good.

    They continue: “There are definitely some different sides of us on this record, both musically and lyrically, and we just want our old and new fans to hear it for themselves.”

    At the heart of it all is frontman Girish Pradhan, whose unmistakable voice continues to set the band apart. Possessing a rare combination of power, range, grit, and emotion, Girish channels the spirit of the great rock singers of the past while maintaining a personality and charisma that are entirely his own.

    This new release captures a band continuing to grow while staying true to the spirit, passion, and songwriting that have defined Girish and The Chronicles from day one.

    Disintegrate is the sound of Girish and The Chronicles moving forward while remaining true to who they are.

    Disintegrate is available to pre-order here.

    Girish and The Chronicles are:

    Girish Pradhan / Vocals and Rhythm Guitars
    Yogesh Pradhan / Bass, Keyboards, and Production
    Suraz Sun / Lead Guitars
    Nagen Nags / Drums

  • Beabadoobee – “Memories”

    Beabadoobee was already a big star before this year — she wouldn’t be booked in arenas and amphitheaters otherwise — but the singles from next month’s Pylon have suggested a leveling up. After whetting our appetites with the swooning non-album teaser “All I Did Was Dream Of You,” Beatrice Laus gave us the raucous pop-rocker “Sun Has Set” and the sumptuous trip-hop slow jam “Switchblade.” Now comes “Memories,” a dreamy rocker that manages to move with brisk momentum despite its many layers of beauty. “The smell of rain on the pavement/ It’s 3 a.m. and I thought of you,” she sings, before pleading, “Just stay a little while.”

  • Former SYMPHONY X Bassist Releases Eponymous Debut Album “THOMAS MILLER’S LAZARUS EFFECT”

    Sensory Records presents the compelling eponymous debut from Thomas Miller’s Lazarus Effect, the new venture from the former founding Symphony X bassist.

    Thomas Miller started his music career in central New Jersey and played in numerous cover and original bands influenced by progressive bands from the 1970s and 1980s. In 1986, he met Michael Romeo, a local progressive and classically influenced guitarist, with whom he then recorded and played in several bands. In 1994, they formed Symphony X and recruited the rest of the band members to complete the lineup and sign with Japanese record label Zero Records.

    After international critical acclaim for their albums Symphony X, Damnation Game, The Divine Wings Of Tragedy, Twilight In Olympus, and A Prelude To The New Millenium, they did various tour dates in Japan, Europe, and NYC. Shortly afterwards, due to personal issues, Thomas stepped away from the band.

    Continually writing and recording on various projects and honing his writing skills, Miller collaborated on a recording project with vocalist Hollywood How Portney in 2017, and after interactions with fans over the years and realizing his chemistry with How, he decided to start writing for a new project, which would become Thomas Miller’s Lazarus Effect. Two former Symphony X bandmates, guitarist Michael Romeo and keyboardist Michael Pinnella, would also lend their talents to the project, and Eric Rachel – producer of Symphony X’s first six albums as well as Black Sabbath, The Black Dahlia Murder and countless others – was enlisted to mix and master the album, which is completed with art and design by Rodrigo Gudiña.

    The result is an epic, forty-nine-minute progressive metal opus, inspired by majestic themes and various musical overtones. Fans of Symphony X, Dream Theater, Circus Maximus, Redemption, Kamelot, and other grand progressive metal acts should immediately check out Thomas Miller’s Lazarus Effect.

    The lead single from Thomas Miller’s Lazarus Effect arrives through the album’s sixth track, “When Darkness Falls,” about which the project’s mastermind states, “I wrote ‘When Darkness Falls’ as more of a straight-ahead, in-your-face metal song for the album with a classical shadow due to its harmonic minor content. The song came together within about an hour, and the lyrics and harmonies worked perfectly for How’s vocals.”

    Sensory Records will release Thomas Miller’s Lazarus Effect on CD, LP, and digital platforms on October 30th. Pre-orders are available on Bandcamp.
