February 23, 2022 The French hybrid-alternative-rock band Nothing But Real releases their new single “Behind The Door” off of their upcoming album
Nothing But Real is a french hybrid alternative rock band from Paris, drawing eclectic influences of alternative rock, fusion, stoner, film music, pop and electro.
The second single “Behind The Door”, out of their upcoming album, is being released today. The music video will follow and will be out on March 3, 2022.
Mixed and mastered by Y. François, this new song is about admiration for another and the toxic relationship that results from it.
“We all had someone we admired. A charismatic, ambitious, and dangerous personality. While we know he is toxic, he manipulates us, he is evil, we do not care. We want to be his shadow.
So we hope to follow in his footsteps behind this door…” – Nothing But Real
Recorded at Studio Cream with Yohann François (Théo Tams, Greg Nori..), the new album “Lost in the World” will be released on March 25, 2022.
The sound of the quartet comes to life through mysterious virtual characters.
Self-described as “a double-headed hybrid animal carried by a powerful and light alternative rock“, the band takes its audience into a unique and visual world inspired by manga, comic books, films, video games and mythology.
« The album was created through an extended period of time : The song “Lost in the World“ for example, was composed in 2007 to pay tribute to my grandfather to whom I did not have time to say goodbye… “Here I am“ was composed in 2008, and “Behind the Door“ in 2013. After this long process, it feels so good to have succeeded in giving birth to these songs. » — Tom / Nothing But Real
ABOUT THE BAND :
Nothing But Real is composed of Hanta (Lead vocals), Tom (Guitar, Backing vocals), Eghan (Drums) and Victor (Bass). The band released two singles in 2019 (“Don’t you know“ and “Noisy Mind“) and their first eponymous album in 2020, all well received by the press in France.
“Defining their music as “alternative” is pretty simple in the end: it totally defies the status quo by reinventing itself track after track. Nothing is left to chance either musically or visually.“ —BGP Music Live
Iconic Classics of 90's Rock
The 90s were a decade of rebirth. After the booming economy of the 80s went south, the materialism and capitalism of that decade quickly went in the rearview. The conservatism of the Raegan era ushered a sea change to the liberal Clinton years. In music, the glamour and glitz of synth-pop was stripped down to the raw, dark guitar-based sound of indie and grunge.
It’s hard to pigeonhole anything about the 90s. There were lots of contrapuntal things happening at the same time in politics, culture, fashion, and the arts. There were some undeniably classic rock songs throughout it all, however. Here are five that are each iconic for different reasons.
