Sophmore release from San Diego's barnburning rock outfit
Fresh off taking "Best Rock" honors at the San Diego Music Awards for the second straight year, So-Cal's biggest buzz-band Dirty Sweet is poised for greatness. Their 2007 debut record, Of Monarchs and Beggars, had U.K.'s NME Magazine warning, "(they) are getting ready to go Mega with their skuzzy, ass-shaking rawk'n'roll." Music lovers worldwide agreed. For two years, fans in the U.K. and the rest of Europe have welcomed the Dirty Sweet storm with packed houses. Long before that, they were kicking down doors in major cities all over the U.S. After five years of pounding rock and roll pavement, including performances at Bonnaroo and Lolapalooza, Dirty Sweet has answered the call with a sonic insurgence of their own, American Spiritual. Their forthcoming album, Spiritual is a revolutionary barn burner that melts the mold of genrefied rock music.

Haggard - Eppur Si Muove CD
German band Haggard deliver a sonic and historical heavy metal masterpiece that tells the story of Galileo Galilei.
On Eppur Si Muove (Italian for "and it (Planet Earth) does move"), metal act Haggard concentrate on the historic figure of Galileo Galilei, inviting their audience on a journey into the past. Following a sabbatical of three years, Haggard returned to transform their ideas into a vibrant, even more vivid epic. Their linguistic authenticity is reinforced by the use of Italian, German, Latin, and English lyrics. The sonic picture is refined by an expanded instrumentation including a grand piano and the compositions are even more straightforward, pithy and driving without losing their familiar playfulness. Galileo's story of dreams, faith, belief, hope, humiliation and heresy takes on a breathtaking musical life of its own. Full of power and fragility, emotiveness and sensitivity, brute force and tenderness, and last but not least full of independence. Like Galileo, Haggard have always believed in themselves, following their own aspirations and ideals.
