Seattle band The Trouble Starts will be releasing their
upcoming album, “East” on August 13 through Hello Tower Media. This is the
first album by the band without front man Daniel G Harmann’s name at the
beginning of it. As the Seattle area is the birthplace of grunge music, The
Trouble Starts incorporates some of that raw, powerful guitar energy into their
new album, beginning with “Glaciers.” The song has been picking up some spins
on the local rock station (KEXP) and has a polished, garage rock sound like
Radiohead, without all the experimentation. The Trouble Starts has a great
straight-up rock sound with a hint of British punk as heard in “I Am Black
Waves.” The rawness of their instrumentation gives the song “Kendrick” and
early U2 sound, before the album closes with the big guitars of “Golden Silver.”

Australian rock band, Emperors recently released their new
album, “Stay Frosty” back in April through the Gun Fever record label. The band
is riding on a high following an opening slot on the Big Day Out concert and a
feature in Rolling Stone magazine. The also picked up the honor of iTunes “Single
of the Week” and “Rock Song of the Year” for the lead track off the new album, “Be
Ready When I Say Go.” The song as all the right ingredients for a rock radio
hit, pounding drums, big guitars and powerful, Dave Grohl-like vocals. Emperors
have a very polished grunge sound as heard in “I’m Not Dead” with the right
balance of raw rocking guitars and a strong, memorable chorus. Their music heads more into pop territory
with “Plastic Guns,” before giving off a Weezer-vibe on “Witch.” They attack
the song “Drug Mule” with grunge-like fury before closing the album with a
return to the beginning with “Fight Me Back,” which follows the winning formula
for another hit single.
