Details:
Highcyde is a high-energy alternative rock band surging in popularity. For Highcyde it''s all about driving rock guitar sounds, powerful beats and lyrics almost anyone could relate to.
Named one of the best Bay Area alt-rock bands by the Oakland Tribune, Highcyde produces a tightly integrated, commanding rock sound that signals hints of Nickelback, 3 Doors Down, Creed, Papa Roach and Staind.
Highcyde recently released its first full-length album titled "My Story Now" -- a much-anticipated follow up to the band''s 2004 self-titled EP that secured the "Best Guitars in Rock" and "Best Beat in Rock" awards on https://www.tradebit.com, and raised the eyebrows of independent reviewers who praised the music as "very radio-friendly" and having "cool powerful electric guitar licks." With the new album, Highcyde has stayed-the-course with a straight-ahead powerful rock sound, yet poured more fuel on its fiery sound with heavier guitar tones and lyrics meant to symbolize never looking back at the past, or even looking too far ahead into the future, but living "in the now." The album was recorded for anyone who has ever had their motives and loyalty questioned and wanted to stand-up to the World and say, "this is my story now, don''t ever doubt me!"
The Internet music review Web site Podsiphon, whose analysts scour the Internet for the best new MP3s, has commented, "Highcyde haven''t been around long, but they have so much energy you can''t help but turn it up. The tough thing for a band like this is to stand out from all the other noise, but these guys do it with smart lyrics, pounding sounds and songs you find yourself sticking into your favorite playlists." Podsiphon says: "Watch these guys, they''ll be on a label within a year or two."
Highcyde is actively touring to promote the new album "My Story Now" at venues throughout the Bay Area and across California, and has performed in front of a loyal and rapidly growing fan-base at concerts in San Francisco, San Jose, Hollywood, San Diego and Fresno. The band is also climbing the charts on Internet radio, and its single "Change" consistently holds a top-10 spot on various Internet radio stations.
