Community Metal legend PrinceWhateverer astonishes the audience once again with a brand new track off the upcoming album Reinvent (that is going to be amazing), and it is certainly not failing to hit hard. Gathering the help of friends such as NRGPony (who was already featured in the awesome Taking Flight) and our beloved and ever-so-dazzling VA and singer Wubcake, So Long doesn’t fail to express the deep theme of Moondancer’s feelings as depicted in Amending Fences in a powerful rock spirit while bringing all the sick guitar riffs, heavy drums, delightful vocals all around, and emotional lyrics that you could expect from a PrinceWhateverer production of this genre. I missed the order of the physical deluxe edition of the album that was limited to 100 copies, but you can pre-order Reinvent on its Bandcamp page. The album will be dropping September 7! Yoohoo!
Rock
Crusader! – Soaring | Alt Rock
It’s been a long time coming, but Crusader! has finally reached 1,000 subscribers on YouTube, and what a well-deserved milestone it is too! Have a classic Crusader-sounding song, some pop-punk / alt rock with a hint of harmonica.
StallionSlaughter – Giggle at the Ghostly (covering Daniel Ingram) | Metal
Light and upbeat song? Check. Low tuned guitar? Check. Heavy a f breakdown? Of course! This cover of Giggle at the Ghostly may be pretty short (then again, the original is only like a minute long) but brilliantly produces as per usual with Stallionslaughter’s songs, and this one also features his family on backing vocals! The more the merrier, eh?
Acouste Wholenote – Letting Go | Alt Rock
Acouste Wholenote remains one of my favourite singer/songwriters currently active in the fandom. He has a real knack for writing lyrics and his music has a nice little 90s / 00s alt rock influence that always sits well in my books. Anyway, this song focuses on Spike’s ongoing obsession with fashion hors, and adds another song into Acouste’s repertoire (did someone say album? o.o)
Secret Metal – Faster Than A Lightning | Metal
In case you were in need of something to completely blow you away, Secret Metal has a new speed metal(? halp I don’t know metal subgenres) song! Even though I’m not heavily invested into the metal scene, I know an amazingly produced song when I hear one. Huge props to Secret Metal for this one!
Reverbrony – Evening Whispers | Soft Rock
In a change of pace from his usual bi-weekly metal songs, Reverbrony has an acoustic-sounding soft rock song for us… Well, at least it starts that way, and has a twist towards the end, and I’ll give you 3 guesses what genre it turns into 😉
Outside the Day – All I Want is Love | Synth-Rock
More music based on the most recent episode, this time an actual original song from Outside the Day. While the song starts off with a fairly normal-sounding instrumental part, the vocals are definitely the most notable thing about this song. Not really the most appealing, but definitely something experimental that we can appreciate. Perhaps it could be refined in the future, then you’d having something with a very unique selling point!
Luck Rock – Starlight’s Anthem | Rock
This much original and beautiful Rock piece from Luck Rock acts as a wonderful tribute to Starlight Glimmer, and delights with soft and heartfelt vocals, as well as divine melodies performed on guitar and keyboards. A mighty anthem for Starlight indeed, glimmering in the night and in our hearts!
StealingShad3Z – Lost in the Milky Way | Pop-Punk
Some good old teenage angst for you today, with another track from StealingShad3Z’s upcoming album, Marks of Monarchs. Bonus points if you can guess the fanfic this was inspired by (even we don’t know!)
StealingShad3Z – Reforming | Alt Rock
While perhaps not as well-rounded as some of his other pieces, this new song from StealingShad3Z marks the first in a series of songs leading up to a full album release! And I can always do with more Sunset Shimmer-bae music…
