Join us on the Pennsylvania Rock Show as we welcome Eden on Fire, an original symphonic power metal band hailing from Erie, PA. Formed in 2021 during the global pandemic, the band emerged from the creative vision of talented vocalist and keyboardist Amy Gould. Utilizing her home studio, Amy began crafting captivating and powerful songs that would lay the groundwork for Eden on Fire’s unique sound.

With a deep-rooted passion for ’80s hair metal and inspired by iconic artists like Metallica, Beyond the Black, and Pat Benatar, Amy sought to assemble a group of like-minded musicians who shared her artistic vision. This collaboration has led to the creation of their debut album, Unresolved, which showcases their distinct blend of symphonic elements and powerful metal riffs.

In this episode, we will dive into the making of Unresolved, exploring the inspirations behind their music and the challenges they faced during their formation. Eden on Fire will also discuss their upcoming CD release party, where fans can experience their electrifying live performance firsthand.

The Cynimatics will be joining Bill on Episode 744 of the Pennsylvania Rock Show.

Cynimatics is a band from Pittsburgh PA that combines the unlikely genres of 3rd wave ska and late 2000s neon era pop punk. Equal parts “Turn The Radio Off” by Reel Big Fish, and “Nothing Personal” by All Time Low if you will. The band performed regionally in Pennsylvania and the surrounding areas from 2013-2020 opening for some notable pop punk acts of the time such as Yellowcard, Carousel Kings, and Freshman 15 - as well as nationally touring bands on more of the ska side of things like Survay Says, The Supervillains, and Ballyhoo! Always trying to bridge the gap between the two mostly unrelated genres, the band made many connections in the scene and is still releasing music to this day. Their most recent album “Truancy, Anti-Poetry, and Other Stories” produced by Paul Menotiades (Punchline, The Composure) is out now and available on all streaming services
