Killinoise is a Metal / Trash / Punk Band out of Peoria, Illinois.

They strive to set themselves apart from the other local bands out there, because in our minds too much of the same is bad for everyone,
We have played over 50 gigs in the central Illinois area. never playing in the same place too much. We don’t like having our music played out in the same area and are always playing in front of new people every show.

All in all, Killinoise is the future of rock, withholding certain qualities that for the most part is lost in music today.We play from our hearts instead of playing what everyone else thinks is popular I.E. Drop C is very popular right now in our area, and we will not touch that shit. We play in Drop D.

In 1997 two Crazy Old School Punkers found in god the gift of music. These two rebels to society brought a new unheard sound reminisce to early New Born Aggression. After many names come and gone. All by unveiling themselves unto the masses, the band known as KillinoisE was born. Now with Joker, Toker, 1303, Cavematt, and Markus Arallieas. These five Killas have sought out to change the world and destroy Peoria’s Local scene and hope it’s rebirth will bring new faces and not factions of old being reborn and forced down the throats of those who don’t know any better -

The Following Announcement are pop punk starlets with an eye for intensity. They are pop punk delights, the most daring, charismatic and colourful trio to stand up to and attempt to match the dizzying heights of blink-182. Are you ready to Think High To Rise?

BIOGRAPHY
They may have formed just under three years ago but Bristol’s The Following Announcement has squeezed more into three years than some manage to do in their lifetimes. Tours in the US, shows at some of the finest venues in the UK and support slots to make you drool, the Bristol trio have done it all and now with 2009 excitement stomping its way in, the band are out to make sure that theirs is a name that slides off every music fan’s tongue with ease. Delivering their energetic brand of pop punk and entertainment, the band released their debut album back in 2007 entitled “The Art Of Conversation” that made it in the top 50 of the UK and Australian mp3.com charts. . After spending the end of 2007 and early 2008 sampling tunes and supporting the likes of No Use For A Name and David Jordan they headed back into the studio for their second album “In Secret Places”, Marking their first outing on Crash Records, the album was released in November 2008 and was marked as “A Potential Classic”. The Following Announcement gained a lot of critical acclaim, and with the release of the new album came the “Roll Up” tour spanning over two months in winter 2008. Heading into 2009 the band gained support slots with The Atari’s, Fandangle and ska legends [Spunge] to kick off the year. With a new E.P due out in July and a massive UK, France and Germany tour in the works it’s not hard to see why TFA should be the one English band this year on everyone’s stereo.

About Fly Avenue

We are two former teenage friends, originally from Puerto Rico, who happened to coincidentally meet up in Amsterdam, The Netherlands in 2008. Ram, the guitarist, has over 15 years of experience and played 8 years with international hard rock recording artist “Slimy Nuggetz” and previously expanded his musical vocabulary by playing for 3 years with Jazz-Funk Fusion trio “Supra Orbital Groove” as well as gaining vocal experience with Delft, Netherlands based band “Dear Watson”. Jose, the drummer, has over 8 years of experience playing with different acts in his home country as well as being a founding member and drummer of “Dear Watson” which respectively came in 2nd place during their preliminary performance of the national “Discoverme Live” musical competitions in Amsterdam.

We started this project a while ago but have had difficulties finding other musicians in the Amsterdam area. For this reason we recorded 3 songs with the help of our friend Frank (Student at SAE). The first 2 songs have been uploaded here already with the purpose of showing other musicians what our style and influences are in order to attract similar like-minded artists who want to achieve success in the music industry.

We are currently looking for a bassist and a singer to start playing live performances (Ram did the singing on this demo and a friend from the conservatory of Amsterdam, Berni aka “Capitan Chorizo”; aka “Don Chorizone”, played the bass). If you have any interest in playing with us drop us a private message to set up an audition.

At the moment there are 8 songs written, 5 of which are in need of lyrics and bass lines (creative input is welcomed in the band). Also, if you just like our music let us know as well; it’s always nice to hear it. Cheers! P.S. The final song in the demo is coming soon!

Our Story

Most bands of today seem boring and depressing, as if their puppies were run over. Johnny 9 and the Racers is different; playing live shows filled with enough energy to convert the saddest of concert goers into fans. By word of mouth and constant self-promotion, one of the hardest working bands in Connecticut has managed to get air play on college and corporate radio. In summer of 2006, the band also pushed their way into the national “Bodog Battle of the Bands.” Because of the overwhelmingly good response by voters on the Bodog website, the band was invited to play the semifinals in New York City. With all the shows and attention they have been receiving in the passed few months, many are blown away to find out the band is achieving all this themselves.

They have developed a strong following of dedicated fans by mixing the upbeat ska rhythms of The Specials and the pop/punk edge of The Descendents with catchy pop hooks in the vein of Elvis Costello. The band released their Easier Said Than Done EP which sold over 100 copies in its first week from show and mail order sales alone, as well as scoring a substantial amount of radio play on dozens of East Coast college radio stations. The music/interactive web CD titled Underground Sounds soon followed in 2006. The CD’s limited pressing quickly sold out after just two shows.

Johnny 9 and the Racers has played with numerous local and nationally touring acts all around the state. Fans of all musical tastes are won over by the band’s charisma and energy on stage, so much so in fact that they were voted by TopsInAmerica.com as one of the “Top 10 bands to see Live in Connecticut.” There’s not a night that you won’t see the band giving their absolute all for an audience of any size.

In 2006, the band stepped into the studio to record their first full length album titled Open Up Your Ears. The eight hour days of nonstop work produced 8 songs of high energy ska/rock/pop. In regards to the new CD, CTSka.com stated, “Johnny 9 and the Racers’ newest release, Open Up Your Ears, is sure to turn plenty of heads as it has already turned mine. With excellent musicality, professional recording quality, and an energy exclusively J9, I can’t see them not making a huge splash with this 8-track creation.” The album is selling exceptionally well, after only a few months the album is already on its second pressing. Songs from the album have been played on corporate radio (a hard task for a young band that manages and promotes themselves) and the college stations can’t seem to get enough of it.

Johnny 9 and the Racers are currently finishing up the mixing and mastering of their newest full length cd recorded in January 2008. Within the next few months Johnny 9 and the Racers will be working with artist George Sellas, who had done previous artwork on “Open Up Your Ears”. A CD Release Show date will also be announced!

Influences:

What doesn’t influence us… but a few are Descendents, Toots and the Maytals, Reel Big Fish, The Specials, Rx Bandits, Mighty Mighty Bosstones, and The Wiggles.

Their profound dedication has proven efficance and professionalism does come with practice and experience. They have demonstrated this by playing literally hundreds of shows and putting in countless hours of habitual playing. Each member is charismatic and accept the responsibilities that come hand in hand with having a determined, focused, and capable role within the band. All understanding the tasks they must complete in order to have a sucessful future as a touring and hard working band. Having had the pleasure of sharing the stage with acts such as: The Bled, Bayside, Name Taken, Lorene Drive, Dead Poetic, Emanual and We Are The Fury to name a few - there’s bound to be something for everyone. Strong, rhythmic guitar exchanged with the melodic, charging lead display’s technique that gets notice! The Calefaction’s clean, original percussion and high-spirited bass add complexity that is described best during a live performance. Finally, the vocals in this band are mind blowing. Demonstrating the true meaning of range and percission, mixed with an exciting emotional portrayal. At this time The Calefaction is focusing on writing their earthshattering Concept album as they are making some changes to the line up. But not to worry because time and time again, these guy’s come together like a well oiled machine. The Calefaction, ready to rock! Please Help The Calefaction Go On Tour!
