Libricide Releases New Single "Last Time"

Libricide releases a taste of some long-awaited new music with their grungy but catchy, guitar driven breakup power ballad. The track indicates a significant evolution in not only their songwriting approach and delivery, but production quality as well.

Though not originally intended to be a single, lead singer and guitarist Harun Gadol states,

“We’d been sitting on this track for a little bit; it was a product of some great sessions we had with producer John Ferrara over at Portrait Recording Studios. But with everything that’s happened, larger and even mid-sized studios have obviously had to shut down. And though we are still heavily writing for our follow-up, we didn’t know when we’d be able to get back there.”

And why not! With the majority of people being forced to remain indoors media consumption has been at an all time high. They had also released a fun behind-the-scenes teaser video of their sessions which can be seen here.

The group are still producing and writing plenty in their own ways (and have even launched Libricide Studios, a fully-functional production facility conglomerate to serve as HQ for larger and more diverse projects) and plan to have more awesome new music and content coming this year.

LIBRICIDE SLAYS DINGBATZ W/ BUMBLEFOOT (Ex-GNR, ASIA, SONS OF APOLLO)

LIBRICIDE takes the stage for yet another epic evening with guitar virtuosos, this time with the genre-bending Bumblefoot (ex-Guns N’ Roses, Asia & Sons of Apollo) for his Storyteller Show Friday, January 3rd, 2020 at Dingbatz in Clifton, NJ.

Quick line checks and unpatched monitors didn’t keep the group from delivering one of their most crowd-pleasing performances to date, with a sing-along breaking out during their cover of Ozzy Osbourne’s “Mama I’m Coming Home”, and a devout “worship” segment from the local School of Rockers in the audience for Dylan Stark’s “Eruption” rendition (of Van Halen fame). Many friends made and a substantial email list signup proved the night to be another great success.

Setlist: Critical Mass, Vasoline (Stone Temple Pilots), Encumbrance Removed, Mama I’m Coming Home (Ozzy Osbourne), Shavings Carver, Eruption (Van Halen), Cult of Personality (Living Colour)

Other Acts: Bumblefoot, Charm City Devils, Orbynot, Mindrazer, Strive, Radium

LIBRICIDE SHREDS THE CHANCE THEATER W/ LEGENDARY YNGWIE MALMSTEEN

LIBRICIDE shares the stage with Swedish neo-classical guitar virtuoso and heavy metal/rock legend Yngwie J. Malmsteen on Saturday, December 7th, 2019 at The Chance Theater in Poughkeepsie, NY.

After a lengthy sound check for the Malmsteen team, Libricide gets what might be their shortest “sound check” in their professional history, FIVE minutes before doors open for the night. Despite this, they were able to tune their levels quickly with the in-house staff and delivered a high-energy, riveting performance chock-full of a healthy blend of originals and covers that got the entire theater on their feet for the rest of the evening.

Other Acts: Yngwie Malmsteen, Last Pharaoh, Dyspell

Setlist: Critical Mass, Tornado of Souls (Megadeth), No Accident, Mama I’m Comin’ Home (Ozzy Osbourne), Shavings Carver, Eruption (Van Halen), Cult of Personality (Living Colour)

Rousing "This Is America" Cover Shows All The Craziness That Was 2018 & Beyond

An Open Letter to #ChildishGambino,

Your creative ingenuity inspired us to use our unique sound to put a different lens on #ThisIsAmerica.

From #Trump and #MakeAmericaGreatAgain to #BlackLivesMatter, #BlueLivesMatter and everything in between, this country has been through so much over the past few years. Society has seen some of it’s biggest advances in #tech with #Tesla, #Amazon, and #BostonDynamics, the beauty of the #RoyalWedding, the atrocities of the #MeToo and #FamiliesBelongTogether movements along with some of the worst #SchoolShootings in history.

In the constantly divisive juxtapositions of #richvspoor, #leftvsright, or #blackvswhite plaguing #massmedia today, it’s important to not lose sight of the things that matter most, (especially this time of year)- our shared, #commonhumanity above anything else.

So thank you #DonaldGlover/#ChildishGambino for bringing awareness through your work; for speaking out, challenging norms and providing a platform for artists and musicians to #befree and think outside the box.
