5th Way Recorded at Royal Oak's Rustbelt Studios, Fifth Way's 'No Boundaries' features 11 blazing tracks of melodic guitar rock. The disc 'is an attempt to bring back rock to its purest form with fierce lead vocals, potent guitar riffs, fueled by a full throttle rhythm section,' explains Fifth Way lead guitarist Zak Stelmaszek.
'We all came of age in the 90s, listening to Pearl Jam, Nirvana, Alice in Chains and Soundgarden, and while you can definitely hear those influences, we've managed to create our own - very current - sound.' And Fifth Way's sound is one rock fans are responding to. Detroit's WRIF has already started spinning 'No Boundaries' first single 'Stomping Ground,' a forceful rock anthem that is at home alongside any Nickelback or Disturbed hit.
The new CD will be available for sale for the first time at the Magic Bag celebration. Honing their performance skills as openers for Saliva, Alter Bridge, and Bret Michaels, Fifth Way brings an arena-worthy live show to every stage they grace. With pumped up exuberance, shredding, riff-heavy guitars, and knock-em down grooves, the band exudes an energy and excitement that more then satisfies even notoriously discerning Detroit audiences. For the five members of Fifth Way ' who live and embrace 'a way of life expressed through music, 'the Fifth Way' is the only way to rock!
Dirty Americans They're a gritty, down and dirty Michigan rock band, I think they're one of the best bands we've produced in Michigan, ever!' - Gary Graff, writer for Rolling Stone, Billboard, the Detroit Free Press, and the Oakland Press, citing Alice Cooper and Iggy and the Stooges, 'You can mention them in the same breath as all those historic rock bands'
Ashes of Soma Ashes of Soma is a rock band. That's obvious. Who is Ashes of Soma you say? We enjoy music, and we enjoy writing music... sometimes.
We've been together for three years and since our first song 'Loaded', we've strived to write our best song, which as someone once said, is not written yet. We like to argue with each other. Not about anything other than music though it seems, or loading the trailer. We are religious about rehearsal, and have been since our creation. Joel's hair is real. We like to know if you have our album, what songs do you like to hear live?
Joel writes novels in his spare time(for real). Randy is in school for architecture. Paul enjoys long walks on beaches. Preney moves fast and lives in a pineapple under the sea. Randy is also a master of chicken strips and french fries and does not have his own Myspace account. We always try to improve our live show and are perfectionists about that.
Generally if one of us screws up at a show, we like to discuss it, and reconfirm that one of us made a mistake for hours after the show. We're 4 brothers looking to play music for whoever will listen. Our first band ever was called Daytrip which was with Mike on guitar and Randy on bass.
Joel's first band was called Bleek which was in direct competition with Daytrip. Pauls first band was Knematic with Randy on bass and Mike on guitar. Each of us need a coffee and bagel in the morning. Our van is full of Tim Horton cups and bags. We also like to argue about cleaning the van. Our top albums that are rotating through our CD changer at this point are Dark New Day, 36 Crazyfists, and Days of the New (Green or Red), Rage Against the Machine(woodstock '99), STP (live). We're from Windsor, Ontario, and proud of it. We exist to create, we create to exist, we continue to follow that road that always seems to be uphill. We should be able to make it up. What's after that? Who knows...
Todd Malec raised on the mean streets of Essexville, Todd Malec, AKA Malechai, has been polishing his craft in, 'My Parents' Basement,' Studio. The upcoming release of his, much anticipated, debut album will be distributed, at no cost, to everybody. Music is for entertainment, not profit. With this in mind, donations are welcome, if not encouraged.
