AMNESIS ( BAND OF THE WEEK )

                                 AMNESIS

With an all out barrage of votes by their fans, Amnesis narrowly held off a back and forth war that lasted a solid week. Their fans are persistent and knew that loosing BAND OF THE WEEK was not an option for their band. Amnesis is a five piece outfit out of NC that delivers a satisfying metal solution to the question,Where is metal headed? By the sound of their music it is definitely in the right direction.They have 4 songs you can check out on their BAND PROFILE and although there music and singing is heavy as hell, it still to the point where it's very well received. I love everything about this band their The Energy,The Vocals and the way they seem to connect with their fans. They are also putting together an album right now and at this time I am not sure when it will be finished, but once you check these guys out I am certain you will be following this band and should see the updates on AMNESIS facebook page. I wish the band the best of luck in the future,especially with the new album and I will continue to update everyone on the happenings of the band at THE PIT UNSIGNED!!!!!!!!!!!!

BAND OF THE WEEK ( A COURSE OF ACTION )

                                     A COURSE OF ACTION

Without a doubt one of the best pure Rock Bands you will ever hear and if you have listened to this band one time, you are most likely still listening to their addictive Rock sound to this day. It does not surprise me at all that A COURSE OF ACTION is The Band Of The Week. Along with their Killer songs, the band also has some of the most devoted fans I have seen.They support them in every thing they do and the band always keeps them informed and involved. It is like every fan they have, is truly a member of their own family.

                                   ONE STEP FROM DOWN

The Band contributes their sound to bands like Alice In Chains , Alterbridge , Chevelle , Sevendust and TOOL, BUT , the band I hear the most in their music would have to be EVE TO ADAM out of New York. A Course Of Action's music is smooth and nothing out powers anything else in the band which makes it so easy to listen to. If you have never had the chance to listen to this band do yourself a favor and give them a listen. Let the band know what you think and I guarantee you will  not only hear some of the best music you ever listen to but find some of the best people you could have ever met.

                      SYKOPATH CONDOR

   Sykopath Condor is an Unsigned Hard Rock Band out of the United Kingdom. The band formed in 2010 and started playing gigs in late 2011.

After hearing the song, one time, I felt honored to be able to lay down a review for this up and coming band. I can only Imagine that the rest of the album will bring this band to the fore front of the Hard Rock music scene around the London area and across the World. The new album will be out in early 2013.

Track Review:

1. FIRE & BLOOD: With an abundance of good bands coming together all over the world, there has to be a band with a prolific sound to make you want to hear their track over and over. Fire & Blood has that sound and belongs in a category of incredible songs that need to be consumed by Hard Rock fans around the globe. As the guitar and drums open up the track it sets the stage for what feels like the ascent to the sky as you ride the Sykopathic Condor. If you were like me you have already began to feel the music of this song and ready for your flight. The vocals are outstanding starting with some very calm cleans and bringing in enough screams to give it that Hard Rock to Metal feel throughout the song. It ends with some masterful drumming from Ashley and brings a close to what felt like a journey over a fire charred land with blood spread everywhere.The song is a work of art, along with its lyrics and I will continue to spread the word about this band.

DIRTY LITTLE REBEL EP Review ( Tend To Offend )

Every once in awhile, a band comes along that totally takes what everybody else is doing and just throws that shit out the window. The first time I listened to DIRTY LITTLE REBELS I was amazed at what I was hearing and could only think Wow, where has a band with this incredible sound been for the last 20 years. It was like the Rock bands I had listened to in the 80's and Early 90's had reincarnated with a fresh feel that just seemed right. The Rock/Punk style is embedded in their DNA and it runs deep. You cannot just start playing this style of music and think you can pull it off. It has to brew in your soul and in this case three Rock Driven Souls out of Cambridge in the United Kingdom. DIRTY LITTLE REBEL was created by Rebel Rogers and Dizzy D in early 2012, although when you listen to their new EP their sound tells you different. The well polished sound of the trio has a matured sound that bands normally dial into after about 2 to 3 albums. The third member goes by J to complete this masterful lineup. With all good Punk Rockers you have to have an Attitude that is just freaking cool, these boys have mastered their genre. As you listen to this band there are a couple of songs that have heavy punk influences, but I'm not going to lie to you, this band reminds me a lot of Motley Crue in certain songs and bands that played the Sunset Strip in the 80's.Maybe even a little like the Murderdolls on some songs.

ALBUM REVIEW
This is an album that is infectious, the more you listen to it, the more you bang your head, pretend your drumming in the air and slay on an air guitar as if you were part of the band.The album is very good and the band sounds tight when they are playing . Tend To Offend is a solid EP and the quality of the songs are well recorded. This album takes you back when music was rebellious, but also fun to listen to.

1. Sleaze Driven Army: As soon as this song comes on you realize right off the jump, you are fixing to hear a style of music you have not heard in a long time. It will take you back, I promise you and if you were like me, you will get a big smile on your face. This is a strong song to start the album with and it sets the tone for what is about to come. Love how the guitar starts the song, then drums and after that a throwback voice that fits perfect to the style of the band.
2. Susie:This is by far the best song on the EP. With many impressive tracks to choose from, this was the one that I could not stop listening to over and over. It is Kick@ss from the opening lick and keeps you rocking throughout the last note.
3. Devil Show: After a barrage of what seem like rock anthems you start hearing some of that Punk and Sleaze style a little more in this outstanding song. Impressive guitar work and stellar vocals help prove this is going to be a band with a strong following in the near future.
4. Reckless Love:This has to be the most Punk influenced song on the whole album. I posted a link to the video below this review.When you watch the video and listen to the song you shake your head in amazement at the mature sound that is coming from this young band.The sound and Punk attitude has to be their way of life, because it sounds so GENUINE.
5. Too Hard To Resist:Should have been named To Good To Resist.With some High Screams and Killer guitar work,the old school Rock sound helps complete an Ep that will be destined for greatness in the near future.There will be many good reviews and massive amounts of fans gained by the pure Rock sound of DIRTY LITTLE REBELS.

                             Reckless Love
