SOUND AND FURY Tour News

Toronto Canada's Sound and Fury is undeniably all about the rock, as heard throughout their self-titled debut full-length album, 'Sound and Fury,' due June 24th via Rebel Youth Records/MRI-RED Distribution.
And the group’s live show is just as in-your-face – a point which will surely be proven when the group hits the road in the U.S. with Less Than Jake in July, and in Canada with Airbourne the following month.

Lead singer Luke Metcalf exclaims, “Less Than Jake are a great band and we're really, really excited – these shows should be high voltage!
We're totally psyched to appear on the same stage as Airbourne and stand up for the wildest, wickedest, most kick ass thing ever created by humans – rock n’ roll. This is going to be a fucking rampage!”

Sound and Fury (which also includes guitarists Daz and Griffin, bassist John Kerns, and drummer Chris Avalos) is all about power chords, no-bullshit rock 'n roll, and total sonic assault, as evidenced by the lead-off turbo-charged single and video from ‘Sound and Fury,’ “18.” To view the video for “18″ online, go to http://www.soundandfury.com/rebelyouth/videos.htm.
The Sammy Ray Welch-directed video shoot for “18” recently took place in an abandoned police station in Toronto, and featured lighting design input from A.J. Pen, who is known for his work with Linkin Park.
“It was a blast!” blares out vocalist Luke Metcalf. “We shot it in an abandoned cop shop and got totally wasted.”

“We are all huge fans of 1970's rock and punk. AC/DC were at their peak between ‘76-‘80, same with The Ramones, The Sex Pistols and The Misfits, and of course Zeppelin and Sabbath were at their best earlier in the decade.”

This music was ferocious! Dangerous! That's what we're all about, creating no-bullshit rock n' roll to get down and dirty and party your ass off to!”

In addition to perfectly capturing their raw power on album, the group has been gaining fans by the truckload by also opening up for Canada’s leading pop-punk band, Sum 41, throughout the great white north (as well as the U.K.).

The group plays stripped down straight up rock n’ roll and was praised by PunkTV.ca for “combining iconoclastic AC/DC thunder, Misfits brooding, the raw impetuousness of the Pistols and the charismatic anthemic song styling's of the Ramones.

Metcalf promises that Sound and Fury will never attempt to “save the world” with their music. But rather, will continue to party and rock as hard as humanly possible.

“We don't take ourselves that seriously. This is about going out and getting crazy, for kids who want to go out and have a good time. I wanna party with the kids who live for rock n roll – no bullshit, down 'n dirty, ferocious rock 'n roll. People who really sincerely live for that music and don't give a shit about anything else. Basically I write about myself; who I am, what I've experienced. I write about what its like to be a wild wolf living in a culture of sheep.”

That said, the forthcoming Sound and Fury-Airbourne pairing is bound to be one wicked rock n’ roll party! Check the Tour Dates Section for a list of dates and venues.
