Experimental Rock Recepter and a bit of painful punk from Arm the Angels!
A trip to Montreal trips out with Recepter, while San Diegos punks out with some angst ridden Angels.
Out of Montreal, Canada, you can find an experimental rock group called Recepter. Their electronica/rock mix is powerful and driving. The plaintative, soul-searing vocals of Zo (formerly with Pulse ultra) tear at your soul, while the dark lyrics and eerie melodies of the music take you into different, yet seductive realms. There is just enough electronica to keep the sound distinct and just enough rock to keep it pounding in your veins. Give these musicians a listen and you'll likely find yourself hooked--an addiction without end.
You can find their MySpace offerings at http://www.myspace.com/receptermusic.
If experimental rock isn't your cup of caffeine, or you aren't near Montreal, perhaps you'll like the rocking, popping punk of Arm the Angels. Out of San Diego, California, this pop punk band is running around San Diego, Del Mar, Hollywood and even Las Vegas, spreading their 'therapy for kids' punk message. Describing their influences as a mix of Guns n' Roses and Foo Fighters and being described in turn by others as influenced by punk groups A.F.I. and Rancid, this solid punk band has opened for bands like the Goo Goo Dolls, Counting Crows, Journey and Def Leppard. Solid tunes that hook you, bleed you and then toss you out into the street keep their fan base strong and their own influence growing. Feel like some dark and painful angst trips? Give these guys a try.

More next week.
Have a great weekend, long (Memorial Day in the USA) or short!
