Covendetta
There is a band in the Utah music scene known as Covendetta, originally meaning “with revenge” or “having the same revenge” . Starting off they went through multiple line up changes excluding the keyboard/vocalist James Belliston. The members of the band consist of:
James Belliston – Vocals/Keys
Justin Stanford – Vocals
Ren Rigby – Guitar
Chris Lyons – Guitar
Darin Ferguson – Bass
Jimmy White – Drums
The sound of Covendetta is Christian Electronic Hardcore. If you are trying to figure out what that sounds like, close your eyes and imagine sitting in church, and hearing the angels of heaven beating down on your ears with perfect melodies, and riffs.
Covendetta has a show pretty much every weekend all over Utah and Idaho. They have graced Washington and Oregon with their presence when they toured in March. They have just finished their EP ‘Sound Raves & Techno Vision’, and will be having a CD release party on July 10th at In the Venue in Salt Lake city, Utah.
If you are ready for an Electro-orgasm you can get your tickets for the show featuring:
Sea Swallowed Us Whole, LikeAMonster, Forgotten Ambience, Faith For The Fallen, Breaux, For Tomorrow We Die, and Borasca
What you get with the show is a free copy of their EP, and an ear-tantalizing rock show. You will not be disappointed.

Skullcandy is No Bueno
Gather ’round, let’s have a conversation about the woes of crappy products, and the bad customer service of said products.
I found this great blog that really puts into words how big companies don’t give a flying rat’s ass about you, or me, and they will sell whatever crap they have in stock, and ignore any customer feedback, good or bad. Before I share this blog with you, let me say first of all that this is not the first time I have heard of this issue from Skullcandy, and subsequently I will not buy their products as they don’t seem to care about having customers anyway.
The blog I’m referencing is: The Good Ol’ Days
In this post, she talks about her brand new Skullcandy ear buds shocking her ears. Literally electrocuting her ears. I could not believe it when I heard of this happening. What kind of company puts out a product that is hazardous in this way? In this post this chick says that she even contacted Skullcandy’s customer service and they completely ignored her email. If there was a product malfunction, that would definitely be something I would want to look into, rather than ignoring it all together.
Skullcandy is like the ostrich of the business world; burying their head in the sand and pretending like it’s not really happening. Good one, Skullcandy. Way to own up to your mistakes.
I’m here to spread the word; we as consumers shouldn’t have to keep these types of companies in business. There are headphones from different brands that we can buy that will not cause us to lose brain cells, and that will listen to our feedback should we provide it.
So suck it, Skullcandy.
