Nobody Believes Me – Diabology

Thrash Metal

Diabology is a teenage thrash metal band from Los Angeles, CA. Members Jesse Bergen (guitar and vocals), Jack Kleinman (guitar), Joseph Mazisyuk (bass), and Matthew Morales (drums), met up on the rock school circuit. They were united by a love of metal and a desire to break out of the rock school mold to start working on original material. Defying the many subgenres of metal, they choose to simply call their music thrash, a tribute to the old school sounds of the late eighties, with a young and refreshing voice. They’ve recently released their debut album ‘Nobody Believes Me’ as a new years gift to their fans.

We listened to a favourite track ‘Defiling innocents’. This track pulls no punches. Starting with blistering tremolo picked riff, Diabology grabs you’re attention quickly before you’re struck by the full brunt of the band. Diabology then breaks up the rhythms and timing to give the listener respite from the relentless riffage. The track slows down midway to unleash some big drum fills and a soulful guitar solo which shows off some real talent. Defiling innocents is a brutal sludge of modern metal and the epic hooks of classic metal thrown in a blender together

If you’re in Los Angeles make sure to catch Diabology in Battle of the Bands for Wacken Open Air on February 15th at the Viper Room!

with u- Marcus Felix

Indie Rock

Marcus Felix is the Whittier based son-of-an-80s-DJ who’s just released his debut single with u, and it is  g r o o v y. The use of lazy synth and nonchalant vocals evoke a feeling of sleepy nostalgia, which makes sense for a tune written about “day to day life” in high school. The tasteful use of kit drives the song, making it an easy roadtrip listen. Reminiscent of Mac Demarco, with u is well produced and its sound is fresh.

Felix’s lyrics are charmingly colloquial. Listening to his single is like sharing a beer in the back of a car while your mate tells you about his new girl. Overall the song is just as endearingly blazé as his social media presence, but that doesn’t stop us from eagerly anticipating his new track Out of Time to be released on February 7th. 

Keep an eye out for the new single on Spotify, instagram and twitter.
