Ruby the Hatchet is a vibrant quintet from Philadelphia formed in 2007 who liken themselves to artists such as Black Sabbath and Fleetwood Mac. An excellent blend of psychedelic rock, hard rock and pop. They’ve managed to craft a unique, heavy yet soothing sound that envelopes listeners in a realm of their creation. Their psychedelic influences from the early ’80s are formative, albeit blended in a style that is truly their own.
Known for their powerhouse performances, Ruby the Hatchet’s music is dominated by soulful, haunting vocals, hard-hitting riffs, and an overall eerie ambiance. Representative songs include ‘Planetary Space Child’, ‘Vast Acid’, and ‘Tomorrow Never Comes’. These songs embody their penchant for intricate songwriting, subtle synthesis of retro and modern sonics, and their capacity to articulate a robust and intense musical experience.
Royal Thunder, hailing from Atlanta, is a four-piece rock band that was formed in 2007. Their music is a majestic fusion of grunge, progressive, and heavy rock, strongly resembling acts like Alice in Chains, Pink Floyd, and The Mars Volta.
Their sound leans on thick, distorted, sludgy guitars and the remarkably gripping voice of their female lead singer, Mlny Parsonz. Her vocals run through enchantingly soft melodies to raucous, gravelly roars, displaying a impressive emotional range. Songs like ‘April Showers’, ‘Time Machine’, and ‘Blue’ demonstrate the band’s prowess in constructing multilayered, dynamically complex song structures while keeping the listener emotionally engaged. Royal Thunder’s music proves a deep, resonating experience that explores the breadth and depth of human sentiment.
