(WATCH) Jersey Rock Video of the Week: The Azures “Hollow Eyed & High” LIVE

Author Jersey Rock

Rocking The Stone Pony in Asbury Park on December 1!

Last week’s Jersey Rock Band of the Week, The Azures will bring their powerful Pyschedelic presence to the Stone Pony in Asbury Park this Friday December 1.  It will not doubt be a captivating evening that could very well be full of surprises.  Speaking of the upcoming performance, The Azures stated:

“Expect the unexpected December 1st. It’ll be The Azures like you’ve never seen them before.” 

December 1 will be more than just another show for The Azures as they will be celebrating the release of their debut self-titled album.  “The Azures” hit all streaming platforms on November 27.  The Azures released a comprehensive statement on the upcoming LP:

” The album is our first full length self titled LP and is an ode to the roots of our inspirations, as well as a collective expedition into each band member’s unique creativity. The genre of the album is psychedelic blues rock in nature but contains progressive elements as well as bare bones delta blues. From gritty and tantalizing riffs to intricate polyrhythms and abstract drones, this album demonstrates a combination of vintage and modern psychedelic sounds. The music is complimented by strange yet ethereal lyrics intertwined with obscure poetic prose throughout the album. Overall this album showcases the raw beginnings of The Azures. “

And you can experience all of that in-person at The Stone Pony on December 1st.  The Azures will co-headline Asbury Park’s legendary Rock club with Grayson.  The stacked bill includes Valentines Day, Heathmonger, Over the Counter, and Starikova Band. Doors are at 6:30 pm.  Tickets are just $15 in advance and $18 at the door.  Find them at stoneponyonline.com or message The Azures to get in the door!  The group is very excited for the show.  They said:

We are completely and utterly honored to be able to celebrate the release of our first album at the legendary Stone Pony with some of the best bands in New Jersey. “

Best Thin Crust Pizza In New Jersey According To Pizza Lovers Across The State

I follow a whole slew of pages that focus on specific foods, pizza, burgers, subs…etc. I really like following the guys who created the “Jersey Pizza Joints” page..

These guys are hardcore. There are rare dust ups and occasional disagreements, but overall, the page is filled with passionate pizza lovers who want you to try their favorite places. Some of these people eat pizza several times a week.

I became somewhat of a fan of thin crust pizza a few months after moving to the Garden State over 25 years ago. Vic’s in Bradley Beach, and Pete & Elda’s in Neptune City were the restaurants chosen by my co-workers to initiate me into the thin crust pizza club.

WOW!! Pizza with a crunch! I thought that was kind of neat. The thin crust initiation was rather eye opening. I look back and think I was kind of sheltered and set in my ways when it came to pizza.
Recently, I have noticed quite a few people online in various parts of the state, asking for recommendations on where they can find the best thin crust pizza in New Jersey.

Matt Denton, one of the members of the “Jersey Pizza Joints” page, was the most recent to ask these questions:

Where is the best place in Jersey to get the following:
1. The best traditional thin crust pizza.
2. Where the crust cracks when you fold it in half.
3. And orange cheese grease runs down your arm when you pick up and hold the folded slice to eat it.
4. No fancy wood fired brick ovens, just the traditional neighborhood steel pizzeria oven.
Please provide location in addition to name.
Thanks!

Now it’s time to reveal the answers to Matt and Raymond’s questions.
