OPIATE FOR THE MASSES Rocks The Active Rock World
As their new single burns up the Active Rock airwaves across the
country, the leaders of the new hard rock revolution, OPIATE FOR THE
MASSES, continue to impress as a slew of press accolades continue to
flow in. Revolver magazine states “OFTM is the specter of industrial
metal. A band to watch” and Outburn states “With Manifesto the group
sees their musical vision come to fruition. OFTM is ready to take on the
world.” If you are not a believer feel free to check out

now to stream a few new
tracks, which will be available for a limited time only.
Ron Underwood (vocals) recently completed a trek of in studio acoustic
performances throughout some major radio markets. Underwood proves what
an accomplished and versatile performer he truly is taking on the tasks
of playing these songs all on his own. The results speak volumes, so
click the link below to check out his performance on KQXR in Boise,
which features acoustic versions of “Dead Underground” and “Burn You
Down.”
