As some of you might know, RED TAPE PARADE were working on their third full length album when their singer Wauz got diagnosed with cancer in December 2012. After he passed away on April 15th 2013, they decided to publish one of the few complete demo songs they have made, which is also the last song RED TAPE PARADE played live last saturday, May 11, during their 'To Wauz! To Life!' farewell show.

"We will hopefully find the time to go into the studio this summer, complete another song and then release it as a 7". But for now we wanted to share this version with all of you. To Wauz. To Life. We were Red Tape Parade."

"I know some magic works"

After LIGHT YOUR ANCHOR released their first single "FALL & STAND", we are really looking forward to the release of their debut "HOPESICK", which will be out June 14, and we do hope you are as excited as we are! This album literally teems with pure energy and vitality! It's anthemic, fast pitched, ultra heavy and saccharine melodic at the same time. Aljoscha Sieg (Pitchback Studios) endowed "Hopesick" with a massive sound, shaping this aspiring new hardcore band's unique vision of tough yet tuneful music.

The proof of our excitement can be found in our store which has been complemented with some fresh pre-order packages, available in different sizes and colors. So head over to our store, pick your "fashion" and be the first to hear what LIGHT YOUR ANCHOR is all about...

Wauz, singer of Red Tape Parade, lost his fight against the cancer that was diagnosed in December 2012. He was a truly inspring musician and one of the nicest persons I've ever met. My thoughts and deepest condolence are with his family, bandmates and friends. R.I.P., Wauz.

MARATHONMANN has a brand new video up and running, for the title track of their new full length "Holzschwert", which is out on Century Media now! Make sure to have a look at it, it's definitely worth it...

2013 has been quite a ride so far for Let it Burn Records! Today we carve in stone that we are willing and able to continue this positive energy and flow with a really exciting new signing announcement: LIGHT YOUR ANCHOR from Hamburg (Germany) are joining the Let it Burn Family and what else could we say except for WELCOME!

We've been following this band for quite a while now and saw them rising to being one of the hottest new Hardcore Bands these days. With their unique and kick-ass mixture of heavy hardcore and melodic punk music they stick out of the crowd and attract a broad audience from hardcore-kids over metal-heads to punks!

Backed up by a very strong team LIGHT YOUR ANCHOR are currently putting finishing touches on their upcoming debut album on Let it Burn Records to be released this summer.

Check out LIGHT YOUR ANCHOR now with their brand new video for the digital single "Fall & Stand" out now on Acuity.Music.
