Algorhythms & Anthems: Facebook's Underrated Rock Gems 

Then Again is a real nod to early - EARLY! - ToB and the influence Dire Straits had on the band in their our years.

Another song built on a Kevin England guitar riff that perfectly exemplifies the guitarist's 'Knopfler-esque' finger-picking style, the song that would become 'Then Again' was originally born in 1990 and recorded as a demo to 4-track tape the following year. It was performed live throughout 1993 (after Darren Bardoe joined the band in 1992); but, after Bardoe's departure later in '93, the song was as-good-as dropped. The song was completely re-arranged in 1995 (after Russell Parish replaced Bardoe at the very end of 1993); but, again, by the time Bardoe returned, replacing Parrish in 1996, the song had been dropped. However, after ToB's reformation (with Bardoe) in 2015, the song was brought back from the dead by the band's original charismatic front-man. Bardoe completely re-arranged the song (actually making the original Dire Straits influence more obvious!) and added a superb brand new lyric which alludes to the band's reunion and his own place within that, whilst also touching on his rash departure from the band in 1993.

The Bardoe arrangement of this old ToB song was always good enough for release; but, in Keiron Metcalfe's mind, a shortened edit was required. So, with the edit being approved by his bandmates, the full length version will be available in physical form (CD and/or vinyl) in the future.

It was hoped that Darren Bardoe would make (yet another!) comeback in order to sing on this song; but, alas, all things considered, it was not possible to make that plan happen. Consequently, Keiron Metcalfe has attempted to do Darren's re-arrangement justice, both vocally and with his production and mix.

First true part of my black music month dump, just had it posted on here super early on accident lol. Wanted to make another dancery mix with Megan and an Azealia used beat and this was the perfect one. This is “Sweetest Pie” by Megan Thee Stallion and Dua Lipa and “Van Vogue” by Machinedrum but made popular by Azealia Banks. Hope y’all enjoy this and the rest of the dump lol

The newest ToB song and recording (built off a short demo of Kevin England's from early 2021), Hiding also boasts what is undoubtedly the band's darkest lyric, alluding to feelings of pointlessness, hopelessness, irrelevance and insignificance that can come when one gets older and realises that 'life got in the way' and time slipped by without the hopes and ambitions of younger years coming to pass.

To varying extents, the sentiment expressed in Hiding is something of a recurring theme in Keiron Metcalfe's lyrics. However, whereas older songs might balance the negative aspects of the sentiment with a determined resolve to keep pushing on and/or the sense of there still being time, there is no such 'light at the end of the tunnel' with Hiding, only cold realisation and honest acceptance.

Minneapolis-based craft pop/alternative rock quartet Southern Resident Killer Whales has always been prepared to “take a song wherever it wants to go.” Never has this philosophy been more evident than in their new, genre-bending EP, Wave Forms. 

(Southern Resident Killer Whales) “...makes an indelible mark...balancing quirky humor, clever slice-of-life observations, and raw emotion" (89.3 The Current).

From the intimate testimonial of “With Love, Always” to the catchy 80s-style pop anthem “Dreamsong,” to the 90s alt-rock reminiscent “Fall Essay,” each song is evidence of the craft and freedom with which the band develops their music, and results in a collection of songs each with an identity all its own.

“…fresh, smart, yet deeply personal and emotional words capturing life’s significant moments and its lessons taught.” (Rift Magazine)

Southern Resident Killer Whales are a staple of Minneapolis area craft breweries and festivals, where their music - catchy, cool, and eclectic - is right at home. in support of a vibrant and energetic scene.

You hold my hand you grip so tight
You’re like some kind of cryptonite
As the days turns to night
You’re in my arms this is paradise
I see my world in your eyes
My gift to you is my life
You pick me up take my hand
You turn me in to a better man. 

Love conquers all
Love conquers all
Love conquers all


You hold my hand you grip so tight

A wilderness stare into your eyes

It’s just you and I in a beautiful world

The Stax Story

I Ain't Particular

Founded in 1987, the four original members of ToB have crafted a style of guitar-based, classic-sounding Rock which is truly their own, formed over the last 30 years from a wide and varied range of influences, including Dire Straits, Bruce Springsteen, Gary Moore, Spin Doctors, Pearl Jam, Bad Company, Simple Minds, Jeff Lynne, Train, Matchbox Twenty, Eric Clapton, AC/DC, The Eagles, Pink Floyd and many, many more.

With guitarist, Kevin England, being hugely influenced by the likes of Knopfler, Clapton, Gilmore and Moore, it is his own bluesy and country style that gives the band it's classic, Roots Rock sound. But a style of composing which has simplified over the years (and which is hugely influenced by Keiron Metcalfe's pursuit of catchy and memorable choruses and hooks) gives the band a definite tilt towards the 'POP' side of things. The result, therefore, is solid Rock songs which can range from melodic and moody to foot-tapping and sing-along to rollicking and raucous, but which are sprinkled with a smattering of populism which, as is the case with ALL good Pop songs, provides the listener with a comforting, deja-vu-like sense of familiarity. And that curious sense of knowing and understanding is well and truly supplemented by the wispy, universally reflective lyrics of Darren Bardoe or Keiron Metcalfe's own slightly more pointed words.

ToB's songs are ALL original, all unique; but there is a special, indescribable and unfathomable secret recipe instinctively mixed into the ingredients of each song which reminds the listener of something they can't quite put their finger on...... You THINK you've heard it before - but you haven't. You THINK it sounds like something/someone else - but you don't know who or what it is.
