Urbansnake – the undergound kings of New York City metal

Ettno Roc Records:

 Sirius DJ and Writer Appoints Next Rock Monster

 Urbansnake – the undergound kings of New York City metal – has just released its long-awaited follow-up to 2008's acclaimed album, “Whiteknuckle,” much of which has become the soundtrack for the Argentinian mini-series “Bhiper Dumas” by filmmaker, Javier Correa, and for the original version of iPhone video game, Vector Tanks. The band's latest offering, “Who Says Goodnight,” has rekindled the attention of UC Radio host, Mike Yusi, co-host of the classic Sirius Radio show, Pacific Coast Hellway. Yusi recently wrote: Growing up in and around the West Coast music scene in the 80s and 90s, it’s in my blood to think that the second wave of heavy rock bands naturally comes from the Left Coast. Bands like Van Halen, Megadeth, and, of course, Metallica. Then I heard New-York-based Urbansnake. Until Urbansnake, there was nobody out there, that I had come across, that could throw down a challenge to cornerstone bands like these and walk away intact. Urbansnake is honest, in your face, balls to the wall, no bulls**t rock.




The first time I played “Postal” on Sirius Satellite and my companion online show, UC Radio, listener reaction was overwhelming. I had to give in and admit that there was a challenger to the West Coast Metal sound, and that this beast from the East was not only doing it right, but that they were doing it right on every song. See, Urbansnake is not a band looking for that one killer single and instant success. This is a band in the old school, “cram them in a studio and let them fight it out until they’re done” mold. This is a band whose drive is coming from tortured amps, not an engineer sitting behind a board twisting knobs. This is a band that gets it’s point across with anger and angst driven, powerful lyrics and vocals, and a rhythm section that is rock solid. And when you’ve got a band as talented and as driven as Urbansnake behind the wheel, it all comes together and forms a perfect storm, taking down anything that gets in its way.
