The Duel Has Begun! Taking On Shaolin Temple of BooM

Being a proud owner of all the Shaolin Temple of BooM music, it is easy to say, their latest album, titled Duel, is most likely the greatest work from them to date.
Ranging from mellow to full on energetic power rock and lyrics that connect with an eternal message, this album is straight from the heart, to the heart. Duel also includes a more symphonic backing, that helps convey the music in such a way, as to make it truly epic and unforgettable.
Third track on Duel, is the song Transference and all we can say is, 'wow'! This song is definitely a hit at The Cryb, as five of five of us, voted this song the best progressive rock tune, we have ever recieved. That being said, all the songs are fantastic and all the hard work that went into this release, is clearly heard and felt in all of Davids compositions.
It's a rare thing to really enjoy every track on one release, but that is the case with Duel. This entire album is quite good and well worth the purchase, so be sure and get your copy, because you won't want to miss having this one in your favorite rock collection.

Here are some latest words, from David Alvarez of Shaolin Temple of BooM:


Hello my fellow BooMFighters,
It has been a tumultuous roller coaster ride these last 2 months, but I suppose that is the beauty of doing everything I do from self managing to self releasing my own music. There are several things in play right now that will break SToB's music into the mainstream as I have signed several contracts and have more on the horizon that will shock a lot of long time fans of Shaolin Temple of BooM. All of this done while still remaining an entirely independent, self-produced, self-managed, self- released artist.... all will be told in due time.... but definitely prepare for major radio play across the nation as well as hearing SToB on TV, major movies and video games in the very near future

Till then check out this video I just uploaded that has some behind the scenes action on me recording the album "Duel"
