Just a quick update to let you know that I have shelved
World United Music indefinitely. If I’m able to bring some serious attention to
this project in the future, I will certainly return more determined to make a
difference because that’s what World United Music has always been about. For
the time being, I will be working at World United News where the information
demand requires my full attention. I leave music fans with a ton of great music
and hope it has helped some of the artists I’ve supported over the past six
years. ~ Stewart Brennan

No Operator is a five-piece Rock/Metal band from Vancouver
Island. Their sound blends heavy, intricate riffs with melodic vocals, and an
extreme commitment to writing great original music. No Operator pride
themselves in being a true rock band: doing both electric and acoustic
performances; using no backing tracks, samples, or metronome; and using 100%
real instruments in the studio. After three years of steady gigging; sharing
the stage with the likes of Protest the Hero and Incura; No Operator released
their debut album "Weather and War" in August 2012. In 2013, No
Operator performed 29 times, expanded their line-up to a five-piece, recorded
singles "State Your Allegiance" and "Sitka", were featured
on Shaw TV, won a "Stelly Award" for Album of the Year, and received

to come.

Van Eps has been
a mainstay in the Seattle rock scene for the last 5 years. Their sound can best
be described as a “classic feel with a modern edge”, drawing influence from the
Foo Fighters, ACDC, Led Zeppelin, and Jet, to name a few. Recently, with the
help of producer Scott Olson (former guitarist for Heart and producer for Alice
in Chains and the Deftones) and Jamie Chamberlin (video producer for Duff
McKagen of Guns N’ Roses, ZZ Top, Sammy Hagar, Slash, and more) they released
their first music video/single titled “Go Ahead”. They’re now back in the
studio completing their second single, “Save Yourself”, which will be

they’ve made along the way. Come out to a show and see for yourself what Van
Eps is all about!
The Scarlet Hollow
Sound is...
Powerful, light, dark, ethereal, heavy, melodic music with an emphasis on the
rock in
progressive rock. They perform and produce high quality music with thought provoking
lyrics and sonic sophistication. Scarlet Hollows music is made with a high
level of musicianship, yet nothing seems sterile and polished so much that all
the raw energy and emotion is squeezed out of it. They blend diverse influences
to make music that is not geared towards pop music trends and fashion
statements. Scarlet Hollow's music combines hauntingly beautiful and textural
sections of music, with very heavy, dark, and powerful sections, often shifting
undetectably between odd time signatures yet never losing site of the songs
intent and message.
Traveling effortlessly between progressive rock and metal,
Scarlet Hollow will take you on an emotional ride with dark heavy guitar riffs,
soaring leads, beautiful atmospheres, adventurous arrangements, haunting vocal
melodies, and a powerhouse rhythm section.

There is a noticeable and distinct difference in
styles between each generation of music. The 60’s were all about freedom, love
and tolerance. The 80’s bought us electronic cheese with a dash of hair metal
while the ‘noughties’ heralded the dance generation. However, much like
fashion, there is no longer a definite standard of music. Now more than ever,
there is something for everyone. So how will we define our generation of music?
We will be defined by the boundaries we explore,
the walls we break down and the beginning of the musical revolution. We will be
defined by our individuality, our diversity. But most of all, we will be
defined by our ability to adapt to the ever changing seas of flavour, while
keeping a sturdy grip on our roots. We will be defined by bands like ‘Howling
Dollhouse’.
The Present:
‘Howling Dollhouse’ is a five piece rock outfit who
are just about to release their second full length studio album. Produced by
David Carr (Antiskeptic, Sadhana) at Rangemaster Studios in South East
Melbourne, the bands next offering promises to be one of the best albums
released in 2012, and a key ingredient in the definition of this generation’s
musical journey. ‘Howling Dollhouse’ are all seasoned performers with musical
interests as varied as the songs they create. Yet even in with their assorted
tastes, they hold true to their strengths and find ways to push the boundaries
of their genre. ‘Howling Dollhouse’ consists of Azazel on the skins, BenJammin’
on the 6-string, Lee on the low 5-strings, Andy on keys and Trick on the vox.
Five guys with the passion and the drive necessary to secure a spot in the
soundtrack of the twenty-teens. Five guys who are prepared to take on the
world, so the world better be God damned ready.
The Past:
‘Howling Dollhouse’ started their journey under the
moniker ‘Into the Night’ in March, 2005. In 2007 they released their first
6-track EP titled ‘The Art of Honesty’, which served to classify the bands
overall style. However, by the time the band released their first self-titled
album in 2009, their sound was significantly different. The addition of Andy on
keys opened the band up to a new realm of possibilities and by now the band was
starting to feel far more comfortable with their place in the musical world.
Mixed by Sylvia Massy (Tool, Red Hot Chili Peppers, R.E.M, Cog) and Rich
Veltrop (System of a Down, Tom Petty) at Radiostar Studios in California and
mastered at Crystal Mastering in Victoria, their self-titled album was the
culmination of years of persistence and an unwavering thirst to release great
independent music. The band has spent the past several years playing in top
class venues such as ‘The Hi-Fi Bar’, ‘The Gershwin Room’ at the Esplanade,
‘Ruby’s’, ‘The Middle’ and ‘The Evelyn’, while sharing the stage with such high
class acts like ‘Ten Thousand’, ‘Dead Letter Circus’, ‘A Sound Mind’ and
‘Thousand Needles in Red’ to name just a few. Yet, even with the enthusiastic
response their album received, it was clear the band still needed to temper
their song writing and concentrate on making their music more accessible to a
wider audience. And in 2011, the band decided that to tie in with their new
outlook, new album and unified style, it was time to upgrade the band’s image.
After lengthy deliberation the band decided to abandon their long standing
title ‘Into the Night’ and adopt the new name ‘Howling Dollhouse’.
The Future:
As a band, the members of ‘Howling Dollhouse’
suffer under no illusions that to be successful in this industry takes more
than mere musical prowess, and having a watertight business strategy is just as
important as the product. They have spent the past many years not only learning
about themselves as musicians, but also tuning their marketing and networking
skills. They have the product, they have the skills, they have the drive. All
of these elements converge to communicate one clear message;
Howling Dollhouse will one day be classed as
Australian musical icons, they will be one of the defining bands of this
generation. It’s not a matter of ‘if’; it’s simply a matter of ‘when’.
