CORY MARKS
CORY MARKS was thrilled to announce his second full-length album, SORRY FOR NOTHING will be released on October 11. The album offers an unapologetic double-barreled blast of 13 songs, equally divided between MARKS’ breakthrough blend of arena-rock and roots country alongside kindred spirits such as Eric Church, Zach Bryan, Hardy, and Brantley Gilbert.
MARKS released the album’s no-apologies track (Make My) Country Rock, It notably includes features from Sully Erna of multi-platinum hard rock group GODSMACK, legendary guitarist Mick Mars (Mötley Crüe), and multi-platinum selling and award-winning country artist Travis Tritt. (Make My) Country Rock–produced by Andrew Baylis (Jelly Roll, Brantley Gilbert) – rallies together fans of both country and rock alike with the opening line “I’ve been known to piss some people off / From the Sunset Strip to small town honky tonks / I’ve been behind both kinds of bars”, while its chorus proudly proclaims: “Ain’t ever gonna stop/ I’m gonna make my country rock.”
THE FUNERAL PORTRAIT
Theatrical emo rock group THE FUNERAL PORTRAIT delivers massive riffs and a driving chorus while evoking a sense of fear on their new track Suffocate City featuring guest vocals from Spencer Charnas of horror-themed active rock outfit Ice Nine Kills. Suffocate City is the second sample of new music from THE FUNERAL PORTRAIT’s upcoming new album due via Better Noise Music later this year. It follows the band’s latest track You’re So Ugly When You Cry – an upbeat anthemic pop-punk song which features Bert McCracken of 2x RIAA Platinum-certified iconic group The Used.
“‘Suffocate City’ speaks to our listeners’ sense of fear,” says vocalist LEE JENNINGS. “The fear of being stuck in a dead-end job, a dead-end relationship, or a dead-end financial situation. The fear of ‘never getting out’ is a ubiquitous experience that anyone can connect and relate to.”
SPENCER CHARNAS comments, “Thrilled to team up with our good friends The Funeral Portrait on their track “Suffocate City”. We had a killer time working with them on the song and the accompanying music video. Check it out now.”
