Energizer

Currently still only available to pre-order, the new EP by Brooklyn, New York independent solo rock star, Frank Palangi already has fans and critics raving over a month before its official release on the 5th of June, and the buzz is growing almost exponentially as the date draws closer. It’s one of those albums you listen to and forget is an independent release. But that’s not to say it’s “popified” in any way at all, in fact it’s quite the opposite - it’s packed with meaningful songs you can do a lot more than dance to. In addition to offering the professional sound one would expect from the world’s top recording studios, the sensational self-produced album features instrumentation that will have you digging up your Jimi Hendrix CDs once it's over, and lyrics that will make you feel alive (again). This humble 5 track EP is not needy or arrogant, doesn’t aim to please, and it doesn’t promise to pleasure you in ways you've never been before, but by the time you are done listening to it you’ll find yourself desperately in search for a guitar to smash and a live bat to bite the head off of.

"Live It Up"
Rock


The song that plays in your head when you are about to get back on your horse for the gazillionth time

Passionately loud, furious, determined, powerful, positive and motivational, you won't hear songs like this playing on the average mixed genre radio station nowadays, at least not during peak listening hours - you'll have to go underground to find anything this heavy on the ears. Featured on Brooklyn, New York's top independent solo rock artist, Frank Palangi's "Set Me Free" EP, "Live It Up" is a song that will whisk you back to the days when rock 'n' roll music was about sticking it to the man and rocking out like it's your last day on earth. But before you go reaching for your acid and cocaine, and breaking out the good liquor, before frantically rushing up to your attic to find a live bat to bite the head off, remember to support real rock musicians and keep the genre alive by downloading it (not streaming). As with many of the records on the critically acclaimed six track EP that is still one the few things getting the East Coast's die-hard rock fans out of bed every morning, you can tell how much work went into it. It's one of those songs you'd break a sweat just rocking out to and if you turn it too loud you can be sure your neighbours WILL call the police - they wouldn't dare come over.

Comforting and reassuring

Featured on Brooklyn, New York independent solo rock sensation, Frank Palangi's self-titled EP, "Frank Palangi", this pensive, deeply moving, insightful and hard hitting record is one that has stuck with fans and stood the test of time since its release back in 2011.

Painfully passionate.

A musical journey back in time to Brooklyn, New York indie rock star, Frank Palangi's debut single. This record was officially released back in 2012 and is still getting a lot of airplay today. It showcases Frank's gritty, passionate sound in all its glory and burns slow intermittently as if exploring all the possibilities from every angle. Six years on, Frank has released several chart-topping independent hits, played almost every self-respecting live music venue and concert hall in New York and is without doubt one of the most highly regarded independent rock artists in the region as his climb to rock superstardom continues.

"Purple Haze"
Rock/Indie


What a rush!


This is one of those tracks that will get you on your feet and have your blood racing instantaneously whether you like it or not, wherever it is playing, no matter what you are doing. If you are a psychedelic fan or have ever been, it will also have your eyes rolled so far back into your head you'll think you are on that stuff (again). It's one of those ingenious recordings no one could or will really ever wrap their heads around. One of those tracks that is good in so many ways it's just so hard to put a finger on it and say, "this is what makes it great" or "that is what makes it so amazing". It's also one of those tracks that got so popular you may never have needed to know the title to find it or hear it - it was and still is that amazing. Many would say it couldn't have been better in any way and they wouldn't have changed a thing.

Well, Brooklyn, New York independent rock artist, Frank Palangi has found a way to make the popular song by Jimi Hendrix his own and add a breath of fresh air to it.

"The Terminator"
Rock/Indie


Originally written by Brad Fiedel, an American film and television music composer known for his synthesizer-heavy style, it's a theme song that is only fit for the biggest of big ominous moments, the beginning of a great quest, or a long awaited victory - it's the sound of every trial and tribulation that ever meant something, for times when troubles are finally put to rest after coming back several times, and, for times when your favorite people or places are almost taken away. Anyone who watched "The Terminator" probably listened to the theme song more than any theme song created at the time. For those who weren't born early enough to catch the first installment of what could only be described as the greatest action movie of the 90s, starring Arnold Schwarzenegger (you probably wouldn't have known that either), here's the theme song that made trying to understand the words coming out of Arnold's mouth while simultaneously trying to comprehend how anyone could have so many big muscles all worth while - with a twist of course.

In his latest single, Brooklyn, New York independent rock star, Frank Palangi recreated the theme song - Frank Palangi style.
