To see power trio Antique Scream on stage inevitably recalls images of Nirvana, with singer/guitarist/bassist Chris Rutledge shredding away passionately at his guitar, face always half obscured by a mop of blond hair, chin always covered in beard stubble. But musically, there are very few similarities, aside from the fact that Rutledge is a solid songwriter and a dexterous guitar player -- he focuses on infectious guitar hooks that recall ..60s psychedelic and garage grooves rather than...

The Haunted Windchimes hail from Pueblo and have become a favorite of many in the Pikes Peak region. Bill Forman of the Colorado Springs Independent writes, "Their reverence for the likes of Leadbelly and Robert Johnson, artists long dead before any of them were born, is one thing; their ability to play in that tradition with such soulfulness and conviction is virtually unheard of for a group whose oldest member, Inaiah [Lujan], just turned 25."
Joining the Windchimes are...

With aggressive drums, rumbling standup bass, speed driven guitars and snarling vocals, the dead were resurrected with the aggression of hardcore and the violence of horror to bring you the Royal Dead sound. Their army is growing daily and has already impacted the Psychobilly scene with a cold hard fist to the face.
