I posted a recommendation for Faithsedge’s latest album “The Answer of Insanity” back in August, just before its release through Scarlet Records on 1st September. This is the second release from the band that features Giancarlo Floridia on vocals, Fabrizio Grossi on bass, Alex De Rosso on guitar and Tony Morra on drums. Giancarlo was good enough to answer a few questions for us and tell us more about the band and the new album.

One of the first “NI Rocks recommends” that I posted back in September 2012 was for the debut album from Audio Porn entitled “Jezebel’s Kiss”. The follow up entitled “Midnight Confessions” was released through J/K records on 17th September. The previous album contained a mix of heavier tracks and slower tunes, but the new album steps things up a gear with a heavier edge throughout. What hasn’t changed is a penchant for rather raunchy album covers and lyrics that are a bit less than politically correct! Sounds like a winning combination to me!

Swedish band Adrenaline Rush released their self-titled debut album through Frontiers Records on 22nd August (http://www.rockradioni.co.uk/back-stage/music-reviews/1625-ni-rocks-recommends-qadrenaline-rushq-by-adrenaline-rush.html ). The band consists of Tave Wanning on vocals, Ludvig Turner and Alexander Hagman on guitars, Soufia Ma’Aoui on bass and Marcus Johansson on drums. Erik Martensson from W.E.T. has been heavily involved in the album from the outset.
Tave certainly has the image for leading a band and she has the vocals to match, having been involved in the music business since she was 8 years old. I spoke to Tave via Skype on 15th September and recorded a short interview which was broadcast on the Friday NI Rocks Show on 19th September. The show also features 3 tracks from the Adrenaline Rush album – and a couple by some of her favourite artists.
This show is now available from our MixCloud site -
The interview has been transcribed and posted below.
