THE TEMPERANCE MOVEMENT ‘Battle Lines’

Every track on The Temperance Movement’s album ‘White Bear’ is a keeper, and this is a particularly good one. I loved hearing it live when the band played in Vancouver recently, and I love listening to the studio version as well.

MASSIVE WAGONS ‘Tokyo’

This is an excellent new track from Massive Wagons, taken from the band’s new album ‘Welcome To The World’. It’s set for release on April 29th!   To quote the band’s bio:

“Its quite simple really, 5 purveyors of hard and heavy rock and roll! No fanciful tales, no from the ashes bullshit, absolutely no gutter to glory cobblers, its as plain as the spots on your nose, proper pals who play proper music for real rock fans.”

Massive Wagons is part of Off Yer Rocka’s  ‘On The Road’ tour, with Trucker Diablo, SKAM, Screaming Eagles, Chase The Ace, and Thirteen Stars. Read more about the tour here.   Massive Wagons Website / Facebook / Twitter
