Two Roads To Mexico, with a sound reminiscent of early Hot Water Music or a more melodic Small Brown Bike, the boys of Two Roads To Mexico continue to incorporate the use of raspy vocals, odd time changes, carrying melodies and huge breakdowns to transition each of their songs from start to finish.
With 2 years of shows and the new release of their second EP in February of 09’, Two Roads To Mexico has made a name for themselves as one of the up and coming bands in Michigan. Steve Rhoades’ sharp vocals tear from the back of his drum set only to meet up with lead guitarist Scott Rhoades’ in the front creating a dynamic of back and forth melodies. An added delight of uniquely structured heavy hitting bass lines from Dustin McDonald and second guitar playing of Mike Hampton wrap it all up into one giant sound.
Where their past project of Dropjaw left off, Two Roads To Mexico picked right up with more emphasis on the rock/punk aspect of their music and not the hardcore approach, former members Steve and Scott Rhoades have shared many great venues with influential bands such as The Suicide Machines, Heads Will Roll, and Thunderbirds Are Now. Two Roads To Mexico is continuing on with that same dedication to writing creative and unique new songs, putting on energetic live performances, and loving the music they make and the friends they meet along the way. Already Two Roads To Mexico has a number of amazing shows behind them with friends like Bloodlined Calligraphy, The Dollyrots, Downtown Brown, Your Best Friend, Far From Finished, Wildcatting, Belikos, and Mahoney, SikSik Nation, and Jehovas Witness Protection Program. Their new self-titled EP recorded with Jim Roll is a good look into the sound of things to come from Two Roads To Mexico and we hope you enjoy it.
Thanks for your friendship and supporting my music!
Alphanaut is a one-man electronica project by musician Mark Alan, which lifted off after a decade away from song writing. During the time between Fall of 2007 and Summer of 2008 the creative process began again and two dozen songs formed. Five of these pieces have just been completed in studio for Alphanaut's debut EP "The Lunar Age". http://www.planetalphanaut.com
Thank you for adding “Grapes from Thornbushes”! And welcome to the underground London rock scene, where life is a grim, zero-sum battle for status and attention. The book has a go at describing it and hopefully does it well. The first chapter is in our blog.
