15 Reasons

15 Reasons is a Brussels based power rock-metal band that draws inspiration from modern hard-rock-metal outfits such as Stone Sour without hiding their undeniable roots feeding off bands like Metallica & Alice in Chains. While the band has been around for a few years with Valéry Granson (guitars) and Fred Reasons (drums) at the helm, 15 Reasons has finally tapped into its full potential with the addition of Nicholas Brynin (bass & Vocals) in 2012. Between the three of them they have played some of the most prestigious venues and festivals in Belgium such as Durbuy Rock Festival, Francofolies, Fête de la Musique, Orangerie Botanique, VK and a memorable support spot for Channel Zero at the Biebob. They also had a chance to play the massive Sziget Festival in Budapest in 2012. Things are moving fast for the new line-up as 15 Reasons is on the brink of releasing its third album, appropriately entitled 'The Art of Commitment' on 31 January 2014. The album will be released via Graviton Music Services (ex. Road Runner), home to some heavy hitters like Channel Zero, Cayne and Last Day Here. Uncompromising, determined and focused are but a few words that could be used to describe their latest effort. The album showcases a wide range of emotions from power rock to grunge, metal and even hardcore. The songs are tied together by crafty songwriting and musicianship combined with heart-felt lyrics carrying a personal message. Unlike the past 2 albums, this album has been a true creative collaboration between the members of the band with Val bringing in the riffs, Fred handling the lyrics and Nicho creating the vocal melodies. Half the songs were road tested live before recording with the other half enjoying on-the-spot creation in the studio resulting in a mature yet spontaneous set of songs. Lead guitarist Val delivers some monstrous seven string riffs and can shred with the best of them. Drummer Fred is a hard-hitter who lays down heavy grooves that support the thunderous bass lines, creating a monster low end. Nicho brings back to life the term ‘power vocalist’ and he stays true to form with an emotionally-charged, breathtaking performance from start to finish. There is no possible way that 15 Reasons can be accused of being one-dimensional with their latest effort. Moreover, it is an archetypal album that defies what new bands in the hard rock and alternative metal scene are doing at the moment. 15 Reasons has received regular airplay on Belgium’s rock channels, reaching number one on the Dynatop music chart with the last effort, Second Coming. They have been reviewed extensively in the Belgian and Dutch media and their music is available via i-tunes, Fnac, Amazon, Free Record Shop and most e-music shops.
