10 Tracks of finest Hard Rock!

One could really hardly talk about the austrian music scene and not mention the uprising rockers of Red Machete. Going strong and making people want to dance since the beginning, the boys have now released their full length debut ''Bright Lights'' and are ready to take over the hearts.

Red Machete is a rock solid power-trio consisting of guitar virtuoso and vocalist Marco Hadzic (23), the powerhouse drummer Klaus Fischer (25) and the always grooving Christoph Hanna (20).

Having all enjoyed their fair share of bands like Queen, Kiss and Led Zeppelin they developed a unique style combining the old vintage seventies sound with modern elements, but still being 100% Rock!

Stylewise the three lads jumped right out of a ''Rolling Stone Magazine'' from 1973, making their concerts a real experience.

An electric show, with curly hair, bootcut jeans and leather boots, where no one can stand still and can’t resist to clap or sing along. “No matter if it’s a 30min show or 1,5h, no matter if it’s a small pub or open air festival. In the end everyone has a smile on his face.”, says drummer Klaus Fischer.

In 2013 Red Machete already released the five track EP ''Electric Power'' which sold out quickly.

The summer of 2016 saw the birth of the debut album ''Bright Lights'', recorded at Studio Nord Bremen (Fury In The Slaughterhouse, Stoppok), mixed by Sascha Paeth (Avantasia, Edguy) and mastered by Michael Rodenberg (Avantasia, Kamelot) this piece is really worthy to stand next to any big name in your record collection.

It features 10 brand new songs of finest Hard Rock, all written and produced by the band: Tons of kick ass riffs, catchy hooks and even some cheesy melodies will expect you, all bursting with energy that only live recording can achieve, as

Marco explains: ''It was very important for us to bring the energy that we have on stage into the studio, because that's what the people love about us: the raw energy and power! We had to record it barefoot and in standing position! As an exception only the drum parts were recorded in sitting position. ;-)”

The lyrics also match the band’s attitude. It’s not about winning a nobel price but they encourage you to stay true to yourself, keep it up and to make the one or other member of the opposite sex – well ... – excited.

Hard work on the debut album and a little bit of luck earned the band access to first bigger shows they’ll never forget in their lifetime.

They opened for Deep Purple, The Sweet, Mother’s Finest, Ten Years After and Jethro Tull’s Ian Anderson in 2016, did their first ever European Tour through Germany, Czech Republic, Hungary and Austria and got themselves in the record stores so that everybody in the world can have some fun with “Bright Lights”.

You can get “Bright Lights” as a CD version, a limited edition vinyl version and the digital version.

For the future the boys are ready and prepared for more to come and work on new material as well as they manage themselves to the next level which is to get on the road with more of their idols. As the Red Machete like to say: “There’s always one more thing to gain!”

So if you like honest Rock And Roll straight from the heart, give those three hungry boys a try and check them out live, in stores or via social media!
