The new band 84 Days was founded by Randy Bradbury, the bassist for the legendary punk band Pennywise. What intrigued me about 84 Days is th

The Swedish heavy metal band Sabaton is back with a thunderous new album “Legends.” “Legends” is an 11-song masterpiece of an album that consists of melodic guitar riffs, choirs that are haunting yet beautiful, epic ballad choruses, and fantastic storytelling through the lyrics.
