Swept Up

Check out this awesome Argentinian duo! These two guys have harnessed some great vibes from 80s/90s British Punk and mixed it with their own brand of Americana to create a truly unique sound. 

Why not hop on a magic carpet ride with these guys for a little while and check out their second and latest LP 'Barking Dogs and Motorcars?

Here's Swept Up, Episode 3, featuring Toronto-based hard rock band, One In The Chamber!

This band is certainly a necessity for those who love their Alice In Chains, Chris Cornell, Avenged Sevenfold, and Stone Temple Pilots. 

These guys take the best qualities of all these bands to make one hell of a rockin' sound. As I've said in a previous publication: "Imagine if Motley Crue and Alice In Chains hooked up and had a metal baby that wasn’t as much of an asshole and wasn’t strung out on heroin. That is what you get here with One In The Chamber"
