Demon Boy (the Band) Review


Demon Boy (The Band)
Review
Written by Heaven Liegh Eldeen
1410 AM KMYC’s The Dirt with Lori Schulz & Heaven Eldeen


“Taking the world by storm both musically and visually comes a band that is out to conquer the media. Hailing from New York, comes Demon Boy and his minions. This enigma of the industry is taking the world by storm in many ways.”

I took the above quote from Demon Boy’s website and I must say it’s the understatement of the decade. Combining great music and an incredible performance, Demon Boy grabs the audience and transports them into their world where you can let loose listening to alluring, fluid lyrics, hypnotic guitar/bass riffs, and drums that set your heart to their beat. With influences such as Alice Cooper, Rob Zombie and a hint of Gwar, you can’t beat Demon Boy!

Sitting down to write this review I find myself short in words on how to properly explain the incredible phenomena that is the band Demon Boy. I could go on and on but it would never do Demon Boy justice. If I have to narrow it all down into one sentence, it would be “DEMON BOY ROCKS \,,/\,,/!”
You simply have to experience the band for yourself.

Though The Dirt’s rating system only goes up to 5 Stars, Lori Schulz and I give Demon Boy 10 Stars!

The Devil's Bidding Review by 1410 AM KMYC's The Dirt Lori Schulz & Heaven Eldeen


The Devil’s Bidding
By Leslie D. Soule
Review
Written by Heaven Liegh Eldeen
1410 AM KMYC’s The Dirt with Lori Schulz & Heaven Eldeen
 

When Tom Harper loses his soul mate to suicide, he’s left feeling worthless. Even more worthless is his soul. Desperate for money, Tom puts it up for sale on an auction website. Who would bid on such an auction? None other than the Devil himself.
Leslie D. Soule’s The Devil’s Bidding is a great quick read with an extraordinary concept filled with strong emotions, humorous quips and a main character you can’t help but to relate to and fall in love with.
The only two down sides to this phenomenal eBook, is simply how short it is and font issues. With Leslie D. Soule superb writing, it had been easy to look past the different lettering but we would have liked the novel to continue on. All in all, The Devil’s Bidding gets four stars from us at 1410 AM KMYC’s The Dirt!

Blurb:
       How much is your soul worth to you? If you're Tom Harper, not a lot. Still reeling from the loss of his soul mate, he thinks a soul is worth nothing without someone to share it with. Grieving, broke and tired, he offers it up for sale. But with a few clicks of a mouse, he realizes that it is worth more than he ever knew and that some things are worth more than all the money in heaven... or Hell.

Excerpt:
Fear rose within him as the thought occurred to him that perhaps he had been wrong about there being no danger in what he had done. He had never been a very religious person before, and had only gone to church when he was little, when his parents had forced him to go. In his heart, he longed to understand religious devotion in some intimate way, to feel a divine glory surge through him and pull on the threads of his heart, but he had never been able to. He desperately wanted to believe in heaven and hell, and that maybe there’d be a possibility that he and Brenda could be reunited somehow, in the afterlife, if he completed enough penance in his lifetime to redeem them both.

Rifling around in his desk drawers, urgency tightened his throat, making it difficult to swallow. He found the rosary his mother had given him long ago, its silver crucifix a cool, reassuring weight in his hand. Larger silver beads were spaced in between smaller, black obsidian beads that rattled slightly as he placed it over his head like a necklace, crucifix resting squarely over his heart. Wearing the crucifix felt a bit silly to him, like relying on magic, but any form of divine protection would be better than nothing, just in case. Any port in a storm, he reasoned.

10 more thing you may not have known about me

Ten more things you may have not known about me.

1.) When laying in bed, I'm scared of the dark. Walking down the street, I feel safer at night. Yep. I'm that off kilter.

2.) My favorite poet is Robert Service. Yes I read poetry.

3.) Growing up I really wanted to be an opera singer but my voice is more for jazz/blues.

4.) My first kiss at age eleven was ruined by my sister spying on me. She ran and told my mom. I didn't get in trouble but was teased incisively for months by every member of my family. I would have rather got into trouble.

5.) My first kiss is on my friends list.

6.) Etta's best friend in The Human Side is my best friend in real life. Love you Mosh!

7.) I still hold the record for most fights in one school year at my Jr. High.

8.) I can bend my thumbs behind the first knuckle of my forefingers.

9.) Approximately once a week, I have the same dream I've had since I was twelve. I have it mostly on Thursdays.

10.) My utopia is the shooting range. Not only is it fun but everyone gets along perfectly and is incredibly friendly. Of course, you wouldn't want to be a jerk or pick a fight at a shooting range. Everyone's armed.
