Music Video Monday - System Syn's Good Night

Welcome back to a new Music video Monday. Sorry I have not been posting regularly, 'Im still adjusting to the changes going on. Work, and being away from the family, is hard getting used to, but I'll get there...

For this weeks Music Video, I am posting System Syn's newly released Good Night. the song is off their upcoming album "All Seasons Pass" which will be due out on October 11th.

Clint has stated, when this video hits 2000 views, he will release another song from the album. I am on a mission to help hit the 2000 mark. "Good Night" is a very addictive song. Very peaceful, yet moving at the same time. If this is what the album has in store, I'm going to love "All Seasons Pass." 

This fall System Syn will be touring with God Module and Imperative Reaction on the Triptych tour! The tour comes to end on Halloween weekend at Das Bunker in L.A. Unfortunately the club can only book 2 bands a night, so System Syn will not be performing. We can still catch Clint perform double duty with both Imperative Reaction and God Module. 

All CD and single information can be found at www.SystemSyn.com

Ticket info for the Tour, including VIP tickets and the Das Bunker show in LA can be found here: http://www.superfecta.com/Triptych/

TripTych Tour featuring Imperative Reaction / God Module / System Syn

This summer the industrial / ebm / dark noise fans will rejoice in the new album releases from Imperative Reaction (Imperative Reaction 09/2011), God Module (Seance 09/2011), and System Syn (All Seasons Pass 10/2011)!

Each band has been leaking samples and singles from the album. I have yet to hear a song that I didn't instantly consider a hit! I am usually not a fan of remixes, but there are some damn good ones being released. Imperative Reaction has released 4 versions of their first single, Surface. (I am listening to them as I write this blog) 


If you find all of these bands on Facebook, you can click on their bandpage tab and preview some of the tracks, or even watch the Surface music video.On their Facebook page, you can also find the links to purchase the albums. All three bands are releasing their CDs with special limited edition box sets. God Module is releasing Seance with a specially created Ouija boards. All three bands have also loaded the limited edition boxes with lots of special add-ons. Posters, buttons, stickers,  postcards, books, wristbands, and special limited box set only T-shirts!

When a band releases a CD, I  can only think of one thing.... When will they tour??? I have never seen System Syn or Imperative Reaction perform, and now I can finally get that chance! The Triptych tour was just announced, and all three bands are on the bill. This tour will end its US rounds in LA, at the wonderful Das Bunker, on Halloween weekend!! Although System Syn will not be performing on this date, I can't imagine a better way to start the best holiday of the year :-D

Clint Carney and I April 2011 at Das Bunker

Both Adam and Clint have messaged me on Facebook, and confirmed performing with each group.

Music Video Monday - Imperative Reaction Video Revealed!

Welcome to the newest feature of the blog... Music Video Mondays. On Mondays, I will showcase a different music video. From all genres of music. Generally posting my favorite from the past, and maybe some new ones as they come along....

Well the wait is finally over...Imperative Reaction has unveiled their first music video! Surface is the first single from their yet to be released self titled album. The band got together with Chad Michael Ward and shot the video in Los Angeles, this past March.

To View the video, you must "Like" the Band's Facebook page. There you can watch the video, and play a selection of other songs and remixes by the band.

I love the simplicity of the video, yet not homemade looking.... (if that makes sense)

I recommend all non industrial fans to check out this video...The beats are catchy, the synth lines move you, and the bands energy can be felt through the music. This band comes together well. I personally can not wait till I can see this band live!

Imperative Reaction - New Single "Surface"

The long wait is finally over... Imperative Reaction have finished their new album! Since 2008, the band has played a some shows, but mostly has spent the past year, rebirthing the band. Self titled, here is what Ted Phelps had to say about the new album...

"I decided that this album would be a new beginning for Imperative Reaction,” says Ted Phelps of the band’s upcoming self-titled release. Showcasing an evolved sound that combines the band’s explosive live show with the precise, electronic anthems Imperative Reaction has built its name on; Imperative Reaction is both as much a summation as it is a huge step forward for a band never content to rest on past successes. In Phelps' words: “It is our defining album.”

Jasyn Bangert(of God Module) said this about the album on his FB page the other day....
Goddamn!! This new Imperative Reaction CD is really gooooooood!! Don't worry you guys will be able to hear it in a couple months muhahahahaha>:)
quoted from FB page


Their first video, Surface, will be unveiled Monday, June 13th. Like their Facebook page to view the Chad Michael Ward production. Surface will be available to buy on July 112th.

Fans are not only awaiting the arrival of the new CD, but the touring that may come along with it. So far, Imperative Reaction have confirmed a slot on the 2011 Gothic Cruise. Along side other industrial acts as System Syn and God Module, they plan to put on a great show. I have heard great reviews of their live performance, and hope to be able to attend a local show in the near future.
