We chat to authentic, bad-ass rockers Jet Black Camaro about their debut album and more. These guys are ones to watch LW peeps, trust us on this! They've got that raw, grainy, dirty, soulful sound that's characteristic of Southern rock, only these guys are from SA and they're doing it better.

Female-fronted rock 'n roll bands are hard to come by in SA, let alone one that can hold their own with the big boys in the industry. Well, Candi Black have proved they have the talented edge, the raw live energy and stamina to go the distance. They've enjoyed success with their first single "Shotgun Lover" which has aired on many local and campus radio stations. Their follow up, "Blackfire" is also eliciting the right amount of attention from fans. Their performances at this year's Thornfest,Season's Wither and Angels of Rock solidified what many in Pretoria already know - Candi Black are the Next Big Thing! We chatted to the guys about their forthcoming EP, music video and weird and wonderful Facebook fans.

It’s raw, it’s hardcore, it’s Not My Dog. The hard rock and metal outfit from the nineties is back and delivering in-your-face performances nationwide. They’ve rocked Ramfest and killed it at Seasons Wither. Now, they’ll be returning to sacred ground at Oppi and releasing their brand new self-titled album at the festival. 2011 – the year of the rabbit? Nah, f&*k it – it’s the year of the dog, man!
