Edge Of Paradise was formed by Margarita Monet and Dave Bates in 2011. Few months after formation, the band released their debut album 'Mask' that featured rhythm section of bassist Tony Franklin (Blue Murder, The Firm) and drummer Gregg Bissonette (David Lee Roth Band). 'Mask' came at #6 most added on national CMJ radio, right behind Machine Head and solidified existence of Edge Of Paradise. An album chockfull of industrial-tinged metal coupled with soaring vocal hooks, was greatly received by critics and fans worldwide.Legendary Rock Interviews stated "Once in a while a new band comes along that not only has a unique sound of its’ own but draws upon all the things we love about metal or rock to begin with. Edge of Paradise are one of the best independent bands to come out of L.A. in some time."After the release of 'Mask' and a number of regional shows, The group immediately began writing to showcase the bands maturity and define the direction that was pre-empted by “Mask”.Developing their sound that would define Edge Of Paradise. Later in 2012, Edge Of Paradise started to expand, playing shows throughout the West Coast states as well as landing a few shows in HI.By 2013, the band was working with legendary Michael Wagener on the mix of the songs and recording with grammy winning producer Bob Kulick (Kiss, Motorhead), 'Perfect Shade Of Black' was the result. The EP was made available via physical release, before the worldwide full-length album release in early 2014. The EP received rave reviews, painting a vivid picture of the bands staggering growth, and if public perception is any indicator, the lyric video for one of the songs "Breakaway" quickly reached 200,000 views with the debut on AOL's Noisecreep."PureGrainAudio stated "An album recorded with Bob Kulick and Brett Chassen and mixed by Michael Wagener brings with it certain expectations. Let me be the first to say that Perfect Shade Of Black meets and exceeds all of said expectations..." RushOnRock.com said; "Monet really lets rip on title track Perfect Shade Of Black – opening up her powerful pipes to reveal a vocal range her peers on the female-fronted metal scene can only dream of... it’s obvious why this band’s big news on the retro-obsessed LA scene right now."2013 served as a heavy touring year for the band, Edge Of Paradise toured West Coast and East Coast, as well as hitting some states in midwest. And after playing in over 15 states the band is gearing up for their release of the second studio album, 'Immortal Waltz' produced by the legendary Michael Wagener.With a solid line up Margarita Monet-Vocals, Dave Bates-guitars, Nick Ericson-bass, John Chominsky-drums the band is looking forward to jumping into the future, full speed ahead!
Album:
Last year I was turned onto, and immediately became a fan of, the metallic hard rock act Edge Of Paradise when I reviewed their 4-song EP, Perfect Shade Of Black. I can honestly say that I have revisited that EP many times and couldn't wait to get my hands on some new material from the California-based quartet. That wait is finally over!Immortal Waltz builds upon that powerful and extremely unique sound the band has cultivated over the years. Frontwoman Margarita Monet has perfected her craft and her unbelievably strong, dynamic voice conveys a wide spectrum of human emotions that take the listener on a roller coaster ride they won't soon forget.Musically-speaking the songs are tightly woven with killer riffs, intricate guitar work and fret board wizardry delivered via the hands of Dave Bates. Bass and drums round everything out, providing a solid backbone and the driving force that propels listeners along.As if all of this talent wasn't enough, the group has once again enlisted the services of legendary producer/mixer Michael Wagener and the results are phenomenal. This is one of the best sounding records I have heard in a long time; it is huge, with layer upon layer of melody and instrumentation. You owe it to yourself to check this one out, it is a pleasure to listen to on every level.
