Looking forward to this release.

We are thrilled to be releasing our first album with Kscope this Summer and feel very proud of the record. After the last tour with Steven Wilson finished, we had a handful of tracks ready to work on and as we moved through our various separate projects we agreed to work on Trifecta. What does Trifecta sound like? Fission! It’s like Fusion but less efficient and more dangerous!

From Kscope: "Trifecta features 3 of the contemporary music scene’s most lauded and revered musicians – bassist and songwriter Nick Beggs, keyboardist extraordinaire Adam Holzman and completing the line-up, Craig Blundell – one of the world’s most celebrated drummers. Having performed together as part of Steven Wilson’s band, the three would jam together after soundchecks, forming what they referred to as “jazz club” and from these sessions the fledgling ideas for Trifecta were nurtured."

Congratulations The Cold Stares on crossing the 5.000.000 stream threshold. If you haven't heard it yet? Play link below!

Announcement...
Hard to believe it’s been over a year since we put out a full album. “Ways” in many “ways” opened a lot of doors for us. Over 5 million streams, so thank you to everyone that had rocked it. Today I’m very happy to announce that our first single “Hard Times” from the upcoming HEAVY SHOES album will be released March 25th, just three weeks away. This album has been so long in the making, such a long and winding road to finish, can’t tell you how excited we are to finally start to release it. I will be posting a pre-save link and clip hopefully within the next week, and we will be doing some very cool giveaways attached to the pre-release. Stay tuned, I think this one has been worth the wait, and we have some tricks up our sleeves....

Porcupine Tree’s In Absentia: the 21st century masterpiece that changed the face of prog metal

A Classic.... But why take my word on it?

In Absentia was a game-changer for Steven Wilson and Porcupine Tree. But it would ultimately mark the beginning of the end for modern prog’s most influential band

Citing musical influences such as Mahavishnu Orchestra, King Crimson, Porcupine Tree, Jeff Beck, Allan Holdsworth, and Wes Montgomery, Jane has played with many luminaries in the worlds of jazz and rock and formed her band JANE GETTER PREMONITION to present her sophisticated compositions on record and on stage.

Assembling musicians Adam Holzman (Miles Davis, Steven Wilson), Alex Skolnick (Testament), Chad Wackerman (Frank Zappa), plus Mark Egan (Pat Metheny), Gene Lake (David Sanborn), Stu Hamm (Joe Satriani), special guests Vernon Reid and singers Randy McStine and Chanda Rule, the album Anomalia is the stunning result of a series of magical recording sessions and is her finest work to date.

Adorned with a striking cover image by artist Lasse Hoile, Anomalia is a fine work by a fine and truly progressive musician and her band."

Congratulations Jeremy Edge featured in Powerplay Rock and Metal Magazine. Recorded and mixed by Mike Ferretti. See video link below

"'Firedancer' has a melody and cheeky riff that allows you to approach and enjoy, but stay away from the 'Hot Lava', even though the groove is fit for a Dan Patlansky or two, with Crobot's Brandon Yeagley shimmying along on vox, and listen to that grunge touched, organ simmering, 'Outlive Yesterday', Brett Hestla's gruff tones fitting well, Edge's flowing guitar solo a thing of beauty..."
