Dave - 

Bursting out of Paris, France, Halflives "Empty Rooms" CD fills the room with sound that leaves you bouncing to beat wherever you may be. The 3-piece band consists of Linda Battalani, Oscar Scantamburlo, and Fede Bernardi. A little rock, a little pop, a little alternative, all energy. Linda's vocals jump through the speakers joined with infectious rhythms to give you enough earworms to sing along to all week long.
The 8 song album leads off with "Lone Wolf", a song reminiscent of early Paramore. After a few seconds the drum beats are sure to pull you in with the catchy tones and crunchy guitars.
The rest of the record continues to rock you with the pulse pounding rock beats of "Burn" and "Mayday". Slowing down a little bit for the enchanting tune "Echo", it continues to be a superb musical journey.          Now, I can continue to talk about how great every song is but you just have to listen for yourself. OK, one more peek at "Echo".

"Empty Rooms" was released in 2017 so I am a little late to the party. But from their videography, this is definitely a band to watch for and keep a close eye on. As evidenced by their song "Victim" from the brand new 5 song EP "V", they are sure to change up the sound a little bit as they grow. 
​A couple of off-the-wall covers they have rebranded are My Chemical Romance's "Welcome to the Black Parade" & 30 Seconds to Mars "This is War". Heavily relying on piano to put their own spin on them, they have really impressed me. As a fan of both original bands, I was hesitant to listen but they definitely have my stamp of approval, which isn't easy to get when you cover songs that I already love.

Please check out the store and support the band if you dig what you are hearing.

Melanie Here - I'm not sure HOW I haven't heard them before but I LOVE them! The video for Victim (as I'm sure none of you will be surprised) really calls to my darker side. Thanks for sharing Dave!!!
