DeFox Records and Heart Of steel Records are really proud to announce the digital reissue of LYIN RAMPANT's amazing debut album, titled "Up and Cumin" released originally in vinyl version in 1987 and reissued in CD by DeFox Records label in 2008.

It all started back in 1981 when Stewartie Adams joined his first Pro band, London based rockers Tytan.
The original incarnation of the band comprised of Dave Dufort, Kevin Riddles, vocalist Kal Swann and guitarists Steve Gibbs and Stewartie Adams. Dufort had, previous to ANGEL WITCH, amassed quite a history in the Rock world with bands stretching back into the early 60's including THE VOICE, THE SCENERY, MIKE OLDFIELD and KEVIN AYERS.
The drummer was also involved in NW0BHMers the E.F. BAND.
Despite a fanfare of press Adams left within months and later turned up fronting LYIN' RAMPANT.
He was replaced by ex-A II Z man Gary Owens.
TYTAN received substantial major record company interest, but opted to sign with indie Kamaflage Records and laid down plans to release the 'Blind Men And Fools' single during 1982 in advance of a proposed album.
Unfortunately, despite the album being recorded albeit without Stewartie Adams or Gary Owens who also quit the group in 1982, Kamaflage Records went under before it could be released.
It would not be before 1985 when the album, aptly titled 'Rough Justice', finally emerged through the Metal Masters label.
Glasgow born guitarist and vocalist Stewartie Adams came back home to Scotland in 1982 and got together with old friends Cami Morlotti,Stewart Campbell and DD Gray to form a band called FALKEN.
After a few months he then teamed up with ex HEAVY PETTIN guitarist Eddie Trainer, drummer Tam Creamer (Tam Cramer) vocalist Gordon Johnston and Cami Morlotti again, later to be replaced by Edinburgh born bass player Georgie Pringle, after the band named Escape had to be changed to form LYIN' RAMPANT, Stewartie took over the vocals when Gordon had to leave the band in 1986, they later added keyboard player Paul Stephens also from Edinburgh, There debut and only album UP and Cumin was released in 1987 by independent label Prism Records,The band eventually split in 1991 due to the unfortunate demise of Prism records and a number of line up changes.
And now in the new millennium, the Lyin Rampant and their music will be available for Rock fans in every device and every country in the world!

NEROCROMO MUSIC and Heart Of Steel Records are proud to present "Who we really are" the fourth album of rockers ARMONIGHT.
Armonight are back with an excellent Hard Rock sound influenced by the 70's and 80's classic anthems, the band are founded in Vicenza, Italy in 2007 by Fjord and Lara.
The Release contains 12 songs in vein of the spirit of Aerosmith, Heart, Joan Jett and will be available on digital market in 2015, July 20th on every worldwide webstores, iTunes, Amazon, Spotify, Deezer, Google Music, Nokia, Emusic...
Armonight was born during summer 2007 from the cooperation of the guitar players Fjord and Lara.
After various line-up changes, the band stabilizes with Sy at the voice (in 2009), Frens at the bass guitar and Hokuto at the keys (both in 2010).
The drums are played by various shift-players.
Armonight’s first two albums, “Suffering and Passion” (2010) and “Tales from the Heart” (2012) are distinguished by a melancholic sound, full of keys and orchestral traits which, with the female vocals, make them to be compared to bands like Nightwish and Within Temptation. But with the third album, “Recover” (2013) Armonight show they want to keep their distance from the gothic current: the keys are drastically limited to make room for more rock guitar riffs.
With this last chapter ends a trilogy, from which three official videos are taken: “With your Knife” and “Dancing with Ghosts” from “Tales from the Heart”, and “Night of Illusions” from “Recover”.
During these eight years Armonight conquer the love and support of a huge crew of fans, even thanks to the tours around Europe and to the worldwide distribution of their albums.
2015 gives birth to the fourth work in studio of the band, “Who we really are”. The album (as the title itself says) shows the band in its inner nature. The genre is a bluesy hard rock, very different from everything that has been published before.
A new musical era begins, and to be part of it the only think you need to do is to follow Armonight live.

We have talked with the young british pop sensation WILL SID SMITH.
Will is a singer/songwriter from Tunbridge Wells in England who plays guitar and keyboards nad his EP titled “We Are Living” contains 6 songs in vein of Brit Pop, Rock and Indie. The digital release is now available on every worldwide webstores, iTunes, Amazon, Spotify, Deezer, Google Music, Nokia, Emusic..
Hi Will, let's talk about "We Are Living", your debut EP.
1. You are a very young artist, as you started your career?
I am still young but it seems like I've already done a lot. I started writing songs and playing live gigs when I was 14. At first just open mic nights then the gigs got bigger later on. I always dreamed of going on tour when I was a young teenager so I started to play wherever I could, hoping one day I'd be able to.
2. What is the genre of your sound?
I usually describe it as acoustic pop rock to people who haven't heard it but it can also be described as melodic pop since melody is very important to me. Some songs could also be described as alternative pop or acoustic pop-punk, I don't want to be fixed into one genre. If people like melody and lyrics, they'll like my songs I guess
3. What is the source of inspiration for the lyrics?
The lyrics in my songs are usually drawn from my own experiences. They can be about love, friends, family, school, growing up, even moving house. Any experience that makes you feel something is worth writing about.
5. What are the reasons by which you decide to sign a deal with Nerocromo Music and Brit Beat Records?
They gave me the freedom to choose which songs to record, which many artists don't get. They also allowed me to record and produce the tracks myself. Both of these things are important to me and when they add their ability to market and promote the songs I couldn't refuse!
6. Are you working with the soundtrack of a movie? tell us something about this!
Yes! The movie is a short musical drama called DMUS and it is about a group of young, aspiring performers wanting to pursue their dreams. It features two songs from my first EP "29", Urban Country and Tonight. My recording of Urban Country plays over the end credits but Tonight is the theme song of the movie. The cast performed their own version of Tonight over my original music. To see them singing it in the movie was something I never thought would happen so it was a great experience.
7. Your album, now in the digital market, will be promoted in international media, what are your expectations?
I hope to gain much wider international exposure, more followers and supporters of my music and hopefully that will lead to more opportunities in the future as well. I expect only positive things to come from this release.
8. To promote the record are you planning a live tour?
I would love to do that, it would be a lot of fun. Unfortunately, I don't really have the funding to do it right now. Also right now I need to focus on my studies at University but hopefully touring won't be too far away.
9. Have you played in some important festivals in the past?
I've played a lot of small festivals in England but none of the famous ones yet. I will be playing at Helstonbury Festival in Cornwall in September though.
10. I would like to have your own point of view about the poor sales of the CD's, it's caused by the internet? technological development?
Definitely. Most people can get the internet on their phones and store music there or on their ipod or computer so why buy physical CD's? I also think the fact that everything can be found on YouTube or Spotify and streamed for free is harmful to the industry.
11. So how was the approach in the recording of "We Are Living" ?
Each song has an acoustic element, either guitar or piano, so I began by recording these instruments in my studio at University. After that I recorded the lead vocals. The facilities and equipment where I study are incredibly high-end and professional with the added bouns of being free for me to use!
Once these were done it was simply a matter of many hours of additional composition and mixing. Although it was a lot of hard work I had so much fun doing it! It was important for me to make each song fairly different from one another in terms of style. It will be interesting to find out what styles listeners prefer. I am in a place now where experimentation is rewarded so I want to take as much advantage as possible. I hope I always get this much creative freedom in the future.
Thanks for your really interesting questions. Peace!
Thanks to you Will, we wish you a great success in the music business!!

MOXY are:
Earl Johnson – Lead Guitar
Nick Walsh – Lead Vocals (Slik Toxik, Famous Underground)
Alexis Von Kraven – Drums (Exorcism, Mothers Green)
Rob Robbins – Guitar, Background Vocals (Steel Lily, Rhett Forrester)
Oscar Anesetti – Bass, Background Vocals (Rabid Hole)
When MOXY first exploded onto the scene in 1974 with their hit song ‘Can’t You See I’m a Star’ they were destined to become part of the alumni of heavy hitting Canadians making a mark in the U.S.A. The promising sound of the single received heavy radio support from CHUM (AM) in Toronto and led to the band’s signing of a contract with Polydor Records of Canada in December 1974. The Polydor Records contract was mainly due to the popularity and reputation of lead vocalist Buzz Shearman.
After a few years of touring, MOXY went from a bar band to headline concert attraction in Canada. MOXY II was recorded in the band’s hometown of Toronto at Sound Stage studio with famed Aerosmith producer Jack Douglas.
Just a year after the first album for Canadian fans, but three short months after the reissued copy of MOXY I was released in the U.S. MOXY II received international press coverage for the band. Most reviews predicted success for the band and comparisons were made to Aerosmith, Rush and Deep Purple. MOXY II was also highly acclaimed on its release by Geoff Barton of the UK music publication Sounds (magazine), who made the album available to its readers for the special price of only £1.50. Geoff Barton would later refer to MOXY as the Canadian Led Zeppelin.
MOXY saw success touring the U.S. with the likes of such artists as Boston, Styx, AC/DC, Black Sabbath and Rainbow. In March 1980, Buzz was a candidate to replace the deceased Bon Scott in AC/DC but because his recurring vocal cord problems would not allow him to tour extensively, AC/DC band members ultimately decided on ex-Geordie singer Brian Johnson. In 1982, Buzz, Earl and Bill helped fellow Canadian singer/songwriter Lee Aaron on her debut album called “The Lee Aaron Project”. By 1983, Buzz was working a day job at Shaw Industries, just barely holding MOXY together while shopping around for a new record deal. Then tragedy struck when Buzz died in a motorcycle accident, on June 16, 1983, at the age of 33, just north of Toronto.
FAST FORWARD!!!!!!! After writing and recording new material over the years with different versions of MOXY, the time had come to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the legacy and do it right! So a new band was assembled for just an occasion. So along with founding member Earl Johnson an international cast of musicians were brought on board, including Juno award winning vocalist Nick Walsh all materials are newly recorded.
MOXY are an institution and this package will be eagerly received by fans old and new.

Our correspondent from San Diego, Lucas H. Gordon met the legendary guitarist Craig Goldy, most notably of the band Dio, to submit an interview.
Craig Goldy Talked about Ronnie James Dio, New Solo Project and the experience with Uk legend Budgie.
You can watch the video ( from Lucas H.Gordon Youtube Channel) below and read the subtitle for Latin fans of Ronnie James Dio.
Goldy was born in San Diego, California, before Dio, he played in the bands Vengeance, Rough Cutt, and Giuffria.
He replaced Jake E. Lee in Rough Cutt and was himself replaced by Amir Derakh.
While with Rough Cutt, Goldy played on demos produced by Ronnie James Dio.
Goldy performed on the fantastic Dio album Dream Evil, but this first stint with the band was short lived and he left due to unknown reasons.
In 2000, Goldy returned to Dio and helped record Magica, but shortly thereafter left again due to family commitments.
However, Goldy was back in the Dio fold for what turned out to be the band's final studio album, Master of the Moon, in 2004.
Goldy temporarily left the group for the third time in 2005, after suffering a hand injury on tour through Russia.
He was again replaced by Doug Aldrich for the duration of the tour.
Goldy and Warren DeMartini(Ratt) are currently the only members left of the original Dio Disciples line-up.

NEROCROMO MUSIC is proud to presents the melodic Brit Pop project GLASS TARGETS.
Glass Targets is a pop rock project that was set up by UK based songwriter Paul Hewitt. Glass Targets debut EP is titled ‘Memories of Youth’ and features 6 melodic pop songs with strong hooks and a highly commercial sound. The recording was produced by Darren Monson from Apple Beam studios in the UK and features guest vocals from Romany and David.
Paul is a songwriter from the London area who writes songs primarily in a pop rock style. He is equally accomplished at writing both lyrics and music.
Paul grew up in Blackpool in the North West of England and first became seriously interested in music in the late 1980’s after being given a copy of Appetite for Destruction by Guns ‘N’ Roses on cassette tape. In 1990 Paul attended his first live concert aged 10, which was Guns ‘N’ Roses Use Your Illusion tour at Wembley Stadium. This was the performance that inspired Paul to take up the guitar.
Throughout the 90s Paul expanded his musical influences to cover a wide range of 90’s rock including Nirvana, Pixies, REM, Smashing Pumpkins, Rage Against the Machine and Idlewild. Paul began writing songs of his own and played guitar in various local rock bands at small venues around the North West of England.
In the 2000’s Paul ‘retired’ from the local band scene but continued to write guitar based rock songs and began recording them on a basic home recording set up. Looking to add some further depth to his songwriting, Paul taught himself some studio basics and began using drum machines and synthesizers in his music.
In 2013 Paul decided to shift his focus from guitar based rock music to writing more commercial pop rock style songs.
After recording a number of songs using a basic home recording setup, he approached Darren Monson of Apple Beam studios in the UK to produce the songs to a standard that would be ready for release.
Line-up:
Paul Hewit, guitar, synthesizers
Romany, vocals
David, vocals.

The rumours have been doing the rounds for months, now it's official at last: 23 February 2015 will see the European release (Germany: 20 February 2015 / USA: 3 March 2015) of the latest studio recording by British rock legend UFO, their 22nd to date.
The album will be called A Conspiracy Of Stars, and the band consisting of Phil Mogg (vocals), Paul Raymond (keyboards, guitar), Vinnie Moore (guitar), Andy Parker (drums) and Rob De Luca (bass) have recorded almost a dozen fantastic new songs, produced and mixed in the Kentish town of Deal by Chris Tsangarides, renowned for his work with acts such as Judas Priest, Thin Lizzy and Gary Moore. A Conspiracy Of Stars will be available as a Digipak (including poster and bonus track), jewel case, vinyl double LP and for download.
More or less simultaneously with the release, UFO are scheduled to go on tour in February and March 2015, playing Germany, Poland, the Czech Republic, Lithuania and Switzerland, and more, followed by a tour of Britain and Ireland in April and May.
The band is already looking forward to the reactions to their latest release: "A Conspiracy Of Stars is another successful combination of those typical UFO elements with fresh, contemporary ideas. We're confident that not only our longstanding supporters will get their money's worth, but that younger rock fans will also enjoy the album. We look forward to seeing you on tour!"
UFO's New Album A CONSPIRACY OF STARS is out on:
18th February in Scandinavia and Japan
20th February in Germany
23rd February in the UK and the rest of Europe
3rd March in the USA and Canada
The European leg of the tour will start in Germany on 20th February.

The album's cover artwork has been painted by Italian artist Roberto Toderico, known for his artistic calibration's with numerous Rock and Metal acts.
The "Tygers Sessions: The First Wave" CD will be released on February 28, 2015, and will include thick booklet with lyrics, liner notes, and lot of previously unseen pictures. Commented TYGERS OF PAN TANG founding member and guitarist, Robb Weir, "I am very proud of the band's history as well as the current lineup. We should never forget the TYGERS history and hope this shows we will always recognise the early days of the band. There are a lot of bands that want to modernise their sound or image and forget what made them great in the beginning… I am not one of them". "We are very pleased with the end result, in particular with the recorded sound achieved, it really does capture the early '80s NWOBHM spirit and feel we were looking for.
To achieve that raw, almost 'live' vibe to the sound, we even replicated the microphone positioning that was used on the original recording" he adds.

TOTO (L-R) - David Paich (keyboards, vocals) Joseph Williams (lead vocals)
Steve Lukather (guitar, vocals, keyboards) Steve Porcaro (keyboards, synthesizers, vocals)

The new album is a realized vision three plus decades in the making exhibiting world-class musicianship, masterful arrangements, topical lyrical commentary, and melodies that the collective genius of Lukather, Paich, Porcaro, Williams and their assembled band-mates bring to life. TOTO XIV is the band’s first album of new material since 2006’s Falling In Between. However, the band personally considers the new album to be the true follow-up to TOTO IV, which made the band global superstars.
Keyboardist Steve Porcaro reveals, "This is opposite of going through the motions. We are treating this like it is Toto V, our follow-up to TOTO IV. We just want to be the best version of ourselves that we can be. Be true to ourselves and make the best music we can. Entertain people which is what we were put on this Earth for." Keyboardist David Paich reflects, "I think of TOTO as a unit and a band that carries a responsibility when it goes out there in to the public consciousness. There is so much negativity and darkness that I think you have to be as Quincy Jones puts it, 'beams of light that blast through the darkness'."
As they began the process of a return the studio, all of the principle long-term members brought their A-game to the table. Guitarist Steve "Luke" Lukather offers, "When you put us in a room, and everybody brings in their pieces, the next thing you know it all fits together. Everybody's performances are top notch. We are really bringing our best out, forcing ourselves to make personal best choices, what's best for the music. I'm really excited to hear what people think." Singer Joseph Williams adds, "We are talking about a band where everybody is a writer, and everybody is a lead singer, and everybody is a player. All involved brought this trio to the table where it could just live on its own."
Founding bassist David Hungate returns to the fold, about whom Luke simply offers, "No one plays like David Hungate." Drums were performed by Keith Carlock who's commitments to Steely Dan prohibit him from participating in the 2015 World Tour. Shannon Forest will be behind the kit, who was a part of the band's 2014 North American run. Luke offers, "Shannon is a world class drummer and we are honored to have him back with us."
The sessions were co-produced by CJ Vanston, who Paich looks upon as, "everything a producer is supposed to be and more - a musician’s producer." Vanston states, "There have never been better musicians on the planet, especially in a band together. This is an amazing record and I am completely thrilled to be a part of it. This is a dream job for me."
Porcaro offers an additional thought stating, "I think the band is hit upon a very healthy creative tension for this project. I'm very excited about it." For Williams he reflects, "Just imagine being able to stand on stage in front of enormous crowd of people, and you are playing great music with the best musicians in the world, and you look around, and they are some of your best friends in the world. It's the best feeling any person could have." For Porcaro he shares, "It is kind of hard to find words of what it means to have a smile on your face to go to work every day and we have the fans to thank for that - so thank you."
The band will hit the ground running with an extensive European headline arena tour with appearances at key festivals. The itinerary begins in Glasgow on May 21, and takes Toto through the UK, France, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Denmark, Sweden, Norway, Germany, Switzerland, Austria, Poland, Hungary, Romania, Bulgaria, Serbia, Italy, and Belgium. Ticket sales came out of the box with strength, with some appearances selling out within days of on-sale. A North American tour will follow in the summer of 2015. The band is also in the planning stages for their return to Asia later this year.
The last couple of years have been active, with a seven show sold-out tour of Asia that took them through Nagoya, Osaka, Tokyo, Sendai and Sapporo in April, 2014. Also that month, the 35th Anniversary Tour - Live In Poland title was released, debuting at #1 in territories across the globe. Last August and September, the band hit the road travelling across North America as co-headliners with Michael McDonald, which when it was all said and done was their most comprehensive tour on the continent in years.
Historically, few ensembles in the history of recorded music have individually or collectively had a larger imprint on pop culture than the members of TOTO. As individuals, the band members’ imprint can be heard on an astonishing 5000 albums that together amass a sales history of a HALF A BILLION albums. Amongst these recordings, NARAS applauded the performances with 225 Grammy nominations. TOTO sold 35 million albums, and today continue to be a worldwide arena draw staging standing room only events across the globe. They are pop culture, and are one of the few 70s bands that have endured the changing trends and styles, and 35 plus years in to a career enjoy a multi-generational fan base. It is not an exaggeration to estimate that 95% of the world's population has heard a performance by a member of TOTO.
Toto also continues to raise awareness for ALS, for their brother and friend, Mike Porcaro, who has been diagnosed with ALS, Lou Gehrig's Disease. The band commits energies towards fundraising for Police and Fire Departments of California and the Fallen Heroes Initiative (http://www.fallenheroes.org/), and help the United Nations in their humanitarian endeavors through music.
