I really enjoyed the Melodic Hard Rock that I found on the Otherwise major label debut “True Love Never Dies” and I have to tell you that they are great on the live stage. That fact makes me happy to share this press release that I received the other day about their upcoming Headlining tour with Like A Storm and Islander. Check it out below the poster and then look over those dates to see if they are heading your way. I’ll return at the close with some additional thoughts.
The Press Release:
Peace comes through struggle. It’s a reward that’s earned rather than simply given. It’s the product of tireless work and an unbreakable spirit against all odds and opposition. OTHERWISE are no strangers to that struggle, rising up to become rock ‘n’ roll contenders in the face of a tumultuous musical climate and a series of personal hardships. The Las Vegas hard alternative rock quintet-Adrian Patrick [vocals], Ryan Patrick [guitar/vocals], Corky Gainsford [drums/vocals], Vassilios Metropoulos [bass], & Andrew Pugh [guitar/vocals]-catalog the next chapter of this journey on their second full-length album, PEACE AT ALL COSTS via Century Media Records.
Lead single “Darker Side Of The Moon” quickly debuts on the U.S. active rock charts. The guys have just confirmed a headline tour. Check out the dates…

PiercingMetal Thoughts: So I’ve mentioned my having seen Otherwise in concert but I didn’t say anything about Like A Storm who I’ve seen a few times as well and that makes me think this is a great pairing. I don’t know much about Islander yet but if I can get myself over to the Studio show at Webster Hall I will resolve that musical mystery. I’m going to guess that most of these shows are at smaller venues which is great for those fans that want to get right up close to the action. The guys in Otherwise are pretty cool as well which I can say for positive since I have met them at shows just like this one and that means you can as well. How awesome is that? So let me know what you think of this tour and if you will be checking it out down in those comments below. See you next time.
