ON
Make Me
Indiestructable Records
 
Between Toronto and New York City, ON bring a brand new take on the rock music scene with their latest single Make Me. Released last week and now already making its way around the world, the track takes their influences such as PJ Harvey, Nirvana, and Sonic Youth to new realms of creative territory. With Steve Fall on the guitar, Dan Cornelius on the drums, and Lucy DiSanto rocking the bass and the microphone, members of Acid Test, Danko Jones, and Deliuss bring ON to life with a super-group style of experience and fandom that focusses on great music and memorable live events. Written when touring Mexico in the 90s, Make Me is resurrected for the studio with expert attention from Martin Bisi, who’s previously worked for Sonic Youth, Swans, Brian Eno, Iggy Pop and lots of other equally as prolific acts. I can’t make you listen to it, but I think you should.
 
A sneaky rise of amplitude brings an already fired up riff into earshot. A grunge style guitar chord progression rips against the snap of the snare drum as the music kicks into action. A rising vocal pushes the buttons as rhythmic and stylish riffs punch the air and stomp the floor with melody and energy. There is a heaviness to the mix as distortion crumbles the notes into one another like a biscuit topping, and rock drums keep the pulse raging as the verses revolve around the progressive spiral of upliftment. Fire and brimstone rumbles within this hard-hitting and feminine-fused nu-grunge that doesn’t care if you like it or not.

Break You
Indiestructable Records
 
Acid Test’s Lucy Di Santo joins Steve Fall and Dan Cornelius with the rock trio ON. A seriously exciting tour is kicking off on Valentine’s Day that will give their fans a dose of everything new and some classic material. This latest single is going to be a crowd favourite and it’s taking the band to an even bigger audience. A new album is due to be recorded in the early summer with involvement from the epic Martin Bisi, who’s worked with Brian Eno, Sonic Youth, Iggy Pop, and Herbie Hancock (links to eBay) plus many more. Their eponymous LP has been making waves the world over, carrying on the flame from the Acid Test days. Break You is another powerful push from the band, getting the tour rolling and their music in everyone’s heads.
 
A quick and ferocious guitar riff begins the music with a thumping of drums and bass. A bend in the chord brings the verse to the front as Lucy Di Santo opens with her synonymous voice. Punky and attitude laden vocals push the boundaries further with the punchy lyrics. A chorus enters, the music shifts into a harmonising flux. A grunge sensation leans in with the evolution of melody with the words and guitar shifting in unison towards their own perspective. With the tempered rage of distortion that fizzes at the edges of tone and the persistent drive of rhythm that pins it together, a fantastic groove and primal energy encompasses the song.

Underdog
Indiestructable Records
Toronto


From Canada, the three-piece indie alt-rockers ON bring Underdog. A supergroup of talent, the trio have enjoyed huge success with 90s music being members of Acid Test, Danko Jones, and Rocket Science. From the self-titled album, ON, Underdog offers a song of hope and change as the times pass by so strangely. A video filmed by Lindi Gordon and edited by Michael Gucciardi brings the song to visual life which only works to further embellish the groove even deeper. Comprised of Lucy Di Santo on the bass and vocals, Steve Fall on guitar, and Dan Cornelius on the drums, this single and the album due in September was mixed and mastered by Darius Szczepaniak. He has previously worked with Sum 41, Moxy Fruvious, Black Crowes, Bare Naked Ladies (always write the band when googling for this group folks), and Big Sugar. Let's put the Underdog in pole position and see what happens.


The TV signal ends as a rock guitar and punk vocal bring out the riffs. A progressive entrance rips into drums and bass with punchy beats smashing the verbs into order. Fiery energy and a ferocious edge bring rock and roll to the highest level as elements of grunge and metal adapt to the fun-filled elevation of sound. A barrage of vocal harmony signifies a break in the norm, if there ever was such a thing, before the gears grasp once more and the acceleration principle reasserts itself. Thrashing guitar breaks with an anarchic backbone become filled out by meaty and sensual passages of pure emotion.
