DC's blues rock duo The Grey Area (who repped DC at SxSW this year) are gonna make big noise this Friday, 4/20 at the Red Palace with tracks from their debut EP 508 , featuring doses of Inspector Gadget and twangy Kiss-like licks. Check out the video for "Ourselves" below, also found on the EP. And sharing the stage with them is Brooklyn's indie rock band Midnight Spin who were NYC Deli's Best Emerging Artist of 2009! Therefore a night of full on rock noise will ensue! 4/20 @ Red Palace, Doors @ [...]

A friend of mine has been in my ear for months about this dude Rome Cee. I also have a bunch of tracks in my inbox from this dude. PLUS hes a local Baltimore artist. Why is this the first time he's been on SXO you ask? Because sometimes I'm lame. Doesn't happen often, but it does happen. To right my wrongs, here's the latest EP from Rome featuring a variety of guests and producers spanning from MD to the UK. Now I'm off to go play with my son who has been [...]
![Rome Cee – Grey Area(EP) [Music]](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4070421_lg.jpg)
Rome Cee releases a solid EP titled, Grey Area. The album has 13 tracks and features a wide variety of guest and producers spanning from Baltimore City to the United Kingdom. Rome Cee's project has a great feel to it with tracks like, Makes Me High and Moment To Shine. Lyrically, this EP is good. The lyrics aren't dumbed down for anyone. Also, it seems Rome Cee knows what lane he wants to be in and you can feel that in his flow. He doesn't overdue it with every metaphor in the book and he doesn't give that [...]
(Hitler learns he's not on Grey Area's setlist...I found this while looking for Grey Area on youtube. I love the internet.)Yesterday was completely ridiculous. After heading to the Philly's piazza to watch a free Newfound Glory show (I don't think I've ever seen so many fights break out), then Philly's shit show "Makeout Club", I headed over to the Fire to catch melodic hardcore legends Grey
Like a gang-bang porn, sometimes 4 artists come together to create something incredibly beautiful. When I heard that Black Numbers was releasing a 4 way split between Grey Area, The Reveling, The Copyrights, and Luther, the word anticipation would be an understatement. Shit, I would have picked this up for the two Grey Area tracks alone even if the rest of the songs were flatulence as

Just had an enjoyable first run with this new 4-Way split release featuring The Copyrights, Grey Area, The Reveling and Luther. The release follows up The Copyrights' 2011 album, North Sentinel Island , on Red Scare. This is also the follow up to Grey Area's split 73 with Go Rydell, Luther's Siblings & Sevens 123 and The Reveling's Tributaries album. listen: The Copyrights: "The New Frontier" Grey Area: "Lucky" Luther: [...]

Grey Area / Go Rydell Split (Black Numbers) Another release that takes me right back to my late teens/early twenties, when nothing got me pumped like catchy singalong hardcore. H2O, Kid Dynamite - bands with breakdowns and choruses that had fifty to a hundred kids pointing fingers and screaming themselves hoarse on every ...

Yama 3 track demo This band remind me of the sadly defunct Gas Giant . There is a metallic edge to their psyched sound which really reinforce the weight of the riffs on offer. Yama is the hindu god of death - not surprisingly this gives you an idea of what to expect Given that this is a demo, the production is very satisfying. I would imagine this band make a monumental noise live. I'd pay to see that. Free Download: [...]

[20:20 Vision] If you wrote off Simon Baker as just another big-room tech-house producer after his 2007 single "Plastik" became a smash hit, you probably weren't listening close enough. It's true, the tune thrived on an ever-expanding arpeggio primed for substantial PAs. But its bewitching organ breakdown and the sheer variety of drum timbres on offer suggested he wasn't just a populist. Combining the high with the low has been a near [...]

Simon Baker - Grea Area (Album Version) Download audio file (Grey-Area-Album-Version.mp3) The latest release off Simon Baker 's acclaimed "Traces" album is a house music gem. "Grey Area" incorporates some soulful vibes and classic Frankie Knuckles style sound . The original version has lounge vibe but, has enough elements to maintain a good danceability factor. Its jazzy piano breakdown works well in making the song feel vintage yet, modern amongst all the electronic orchestration. The remixes [...]

DC's The Grey Area spent the entire week with us last week leading up to tomorrow night's Jammin Java show, and we thought what the heck - let's give one of you the opportunity to see the band— on them and us. We're going to make it easy on you too because the show is— tomorrow night! Let us know that you want to be there tomorrow and why in the comments to this post and the [...]

They've spent the week with us, they've debuted their new video with us—now it's up to you to check them out when they headline Vienna, VA's Jammin Java next this coming Tuesday night, July 19. The Grey Area look ahead today... After years of playing in large bands with too many instruments, we've both arrived at a musical turning point. Strip rock of its pretense. Get back to basics. Find a riff, find a rhythm, create a melody, and run with it. That [...]

Washington, DC's The Grey Area are on one of those career highs at the moment. Jason and TJ, guitarist and drummer respectively, debuted their new video with us in June and headline Vienna, VA's Jammin Java next Tuesday night, July 19. Jason's rummages through his folks' records today... Records were a big part of my childhood. My parents have a huge record collection, and they always worked late. After school, me and my sisters would come home, set up our homework in the living room, and put on [...]

Washington, DC's The Grey Area are on one of those career highs at the moment. Jason and TJ, guitarist and drummer respectively, debuted their new video with us in June and headline Vienna, VA's Jammin Java next Tuesday night, July 19. Today, TJ takes us back to where it all began. Music for me started at Emanuel Temple Pentacostal Church in Rochester, NY, where I was raised. I spent every Sunday surrounded by talented musicians, especially the gospel drummers. That's where I first learned to rock out—praise and worship [...]

Washington, DC's The Grey Area are on one of those career highs at the moment. Jason and TJ, guitarist and drummer respectively, debuted their new video with us in June and headline Vienna, VA's Jammin Java next Tuesday night, July 19. We're charting their trajectory this week and today we pose that age old question... There's not a band today not influenced by either the The Beatles or The Rolling Stones. Citing Sgt. Pepper or Exile on Main Street as a favorite [...]
