Rocklahoma

May is upon us my friends that means it's time for rock festivals! These festivals are some of the largest events in America, the crowds at these concerts are enormous and so full of energy that I can't even describe the feeling. The concert I'd like to focus in this post is one of the largest 3 day music festivals in the entire nation, that's right I'm talking about...

Going into their 8th year of this event they are hitting it in full stride with about 50 bands performing over Memorial weekend, the estimated attendance over the recent years have been near 100,000 people insane right? This is a great road trip for people who want to get out over the holiday, it's definitely worth the money spent whether it's just one day or the entire weekend! Below are some the household bands that will be performing throughout the weekend.

New Albums!

Let the countdown to summer begin! Since its almost that time of year it provides bands a sense of urgency to put out new albums to promote for their upcoming tours, this is known as concert season!

It's critical for bands to put out a quality group of songs during this time so they can generate the maximum amount of revenue for their events. So I wanted to share with my viewers some of the most anticipated releases that are coming out right before concert season officially kicks off!

April 14th

I've posted about Halestorm in the past and the time has finally arrive after 3 long years for a new album! They produced four great singles to introduce the record Mayhem, I am the Fire, Amen, and Apocalyptic. The link below is to their album, I recommend tracks 3,10,13,14 plus any of the singles. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qm7DsxqYEjc

May 12

It's been a few years since Hinder was last on the rock scene.

 Over the past couple years the landscape of the band has changed to a certain degree because the lead singer Austin Winkler had to leave the band due to health issues and entered himself into rehab while the band carried on. Now the band is moving in a new direction with a new lead vocalist Marshal Dutton but using the same familiar sound us rockers love from the band. Definitely check out the album next month! Click the link to listen to their new single.

June 23

This is one of the most anticipated albums of the summer for me! Breaking Benjamin has produced an album since 2009, so they're motivated to put themselves back on the map with all the other great rock bands. Many people can relate to their music

because of the time and thought that goes into their lyrics,

they've done a great job in the past using different 

the tempos in their songs so some are harder rock than others. Dark Before Dawn should be well worth the wait! Click on the link below to preview their new album with their new single  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BDzE3lY9CII
