ASCENDOR RELEASE THEIR FIRST MUSIC VIDEO

They're Gozitan, they're metal and they rock...very hard! Ascendor has, in the space of the seven or so years since the band was formed, established itself among the leading thrash metal acts on the local scene. Up until yesterday, their catalogue consisted of two albums, 2013's Becoming and 2015's Drive My Demons Away; both records brimming with pummeling riffage that reflected their thrash roots as much as it did a number of other influences, among them progressive and deat

OMG! IRA LOSCO RELEASES NEW SINGLE!

OMG is the latest single from Ira Losco, the 4th single lifted off her eagerly-anticipated new album, which is scheduled for released later this year. The upbeat number, which features local Youtube hiphop sensation Shyli, is a pop tune about heartbreak and revenge and follows hot on the heels of last March's We Are The Soldiers, contrasting sharply with the latter's relatively deeper tone. Peppered with infectious pop and a whole lot of sass, the new single has all the makin

THE CROWNS RELEASE SMOKE AND MIRRORS

The Crowns' mark on 2016 came by way of their two radio singles, namely Mary Jane and Dreams, both of which had been written the previous year. The band is now back with a brand new single that also heralds some changes in the band's camp. To begin with the song clearly suggests that there has been some delving into new sounds and experimenting with styles. Titled Smoke and Mirrors, the song is a more groove-based number compared to past singles; its soulful melody line and i

RICHARD EDWARDS' YOU REMIXED BY TOBY

He's a familiar face on the local music circuit, both as a solo artist or as part of the band Firelight, whose song Coming Home was Malta's entry at the 2014 Eurovision Song Contest in Denmark. Further to releasing his summer 2016 single Burning, last November Richard Edwards also released the acoustic ballad You, which made the final 16 in the 2017 edition of the Malta Eurovision Song Contest. The song didn't win, but it received so much positive feedback it has now been re-

YEP! THE SHH ARE BACK!

Adopting a curious name like The Shh was in itself already a masterstroke by marketing standards on Alison Galea and Ian Schranz's part, so the simple fact that they write wonderful songs with infectious pop hooks that sink in so quickly is a bonus, really. They established themselves on the local scene and attracted a foreign fanbase as far away as Japan seemingly without too much effort, which says a lot about how powerful their songs' reach and appeal is. The result of a s

IRA LOSCO SOLDIERS ON

In three days' time, Ira Losco will be back on the Eurovision stage, not, as was the case last year, to compete but as a guest artist. In the 8 months that have passed since her second attempt at bringing the Eurovision title to Malta, she has had a son, which obviously meant she took a step back from the limelight. Clearly however, she was juggling motherhood with music all the same, as she returns with a brand new single that will be performed for the first time in public t
