EP Out Now
YOUNG CULTURE
Announces Upcoming Tour with
Homesafe, Kayak Jones, Keep Flying
New EP (This Is) Heaven Out Now
"Magnan's urgent delivery, coupled with his emotionally-loaded
voice makes "21 Days" reminiscent of the pop-punk greats of the early-to-mid
2000s such as New Found Glory and Sum 41." - Billboard
"Young Culture will no doubt usher in a new wave of
thoughtful, intricate pop in 2019." - New Noise Magazine
Albany, NY - September 13, 2019 - Pop rock band Young Culture has announced that they will be hitting the road this fall with Homesafe, Kayak Jones, and Keep Flying. The full US run kicks off on October 23rd in Milwaukee and concludes on December 7th in Lansing. For a full list of upcoming shows, please see below or visit: www.facebook.com/youngcultureNY.
Earlier this year, Young Culture celebrated an incredibly successful first week following the release of their new EP, (This Is) Heaven, available now via Equal Vision Records. (This Is) Heaven, the band's label debut, secured the #22 spot on the New Artist chart, as well as #53 Indie. The EP has been heralded by Billboard, New Noise Magazine, Indie Mixtape, idobi Radio, and more. Fans can stream (This Is) Heaven via Spotify and Apple Music, or purchase it online at youngculture.merchnow.com.
It's not often that a rock or punk band will make a hip-hop style mixtape just to clear their creative cobwebs. But that's exactly what Albany-based four-piece Young Culture did. Formed by school friends Alex Magnan (vocals) and Gabe Pietrafesa (guitar), who have been playing together for a number of years, Young Culture put out their debut mini-album, You, in the summer of 2016. It was followed up with a five-track EP called Blue. The former had a song, "Bedroom Floor" that featured Derek DiScanio from State Champs - a fellow Albany band - on backing vocals. The latter was co-produced by him and Seth Henderson, who's worked with the likes of Real Friends, Knuckle Puck and Sleep On It.
Young Culture - completed now by guitarist Troy Burchett and drummer Nick Cavin - toured those songs and began to build up a solid following, which remains strong today. But instead of working on new material for the band, the pair, fuelled by an inherent restless creativity, began to experiment, Pietrafesa sending Magnan different beats to write lyrics over just to keep their inspiration and creative juices flowing.
That influence is very much evident in songs like "Drift," co-produced by Derek DiScanio (State Champs) and Sam Guiana (Like Pacific, Coldfront). "Drift" not only redefined who Young Culture is as a band, but also reshaped the perimeters of pop-punk - although it should be noted that they're very wary of being confined to just that genre. As they should be, because there are many more layers to this band.
2018 ushered in a brand new phase of Young Culture's existence, evident in the their latest single "21 Days" as well as the rest of new EP (This Is) Heaven. They might now be just 20 years old, but both Pietrafesa and Magnan's attitude and songwriting ability display a maturity way beyond their years. And while this isn't an entirely new beginning, it certainly marks the start of something that's thoroughly unique, electrifying and engaging.
Young Culture released (This Is) Heaven on January 18th, 2019 via Equal Vision Records. To purchase, please visit: youngculture.merchnow.com.

THE RAVEN AGE
GLOBALLY RELEASE SOPHOMORE RECORD
CONSPIRACY
AVAILABLE TO STREAM TODAY AT
ON TOUR WITH IRON MAIDEN
TICKETS ON SALE NOW FOR
LEGACY OF THE BEAST TOUR
SEPTEMBER 13, 2019 - English melodic metal band The Raven Age have globally released their sophomore album Conspiracy today through Explorer1 Music. Complete with a brand new track "Fleur De Lis", the second chapter of this band's story takes on a fantasy world through 13 tracks. They are as brilliantly catchy as they are deviously heavy, delicately balancing classic and modern metal influences with an alt-rock twist. Fans can stream Conspiracy, complete with the new track today at http://hyperurl.co/qszww1.
From epic opener "Bloom Of The Poison Seed" right through to grand finale "Grave Of The Fireflies," the latest opus traps lightning in a bottle and laces cinematic flavors within concrete heaviness in a way very few have done before - dragging the listener deeper and deeper inside their dark dystopian reality. Truth be told, this is a band that are every bit as explosive as a blockbuster movie.
The band has been taking North America by storm while on the road with Iron Maiden for the Legacy Of The Beast Tour this fall. Delivering a live performance that combines both masterful musical skills alongside an electrifying stage presence, The Raven Age are leaving a lasting impression on fans across the US and Canada while looking forward to visiting South America, then finishing year off with a European tour supporting Alter Bridge and Shinedown.
