Hollywood, CA – November 7, 2012 – USC Alum and singer/songwriter Hunter Scott MacLeod, the front-man to the metal pop rock band Death Valley Martyrs, new single “Fight On” has been downloaded over 200,000 times on iTunes and other web music sites, making it one of this year’s hottest new sports anthems. An industry professional for over 15-years as a studio musician and film screenwriter, MacLeod, wrote and arranged “Fight On,” as a homage to his alma mater – the University of Southern California. A fan of its football team, MacLeod penned this original song in his signature style of hard rock with huge guitars and drums and powerful vocals. Although written for his alma mater, “Fight On” is really a song for the underdog in all walks of life and is meant to inspire people to not accept a lower standard and to always push for greatness. “’As an ardent USC football fan, I was heartbroken when USC received sanctions against the program and had its scholarships limited, so that and the struggles we have had since, made me want to create something that identified with the school and maybe inspire the players and fans alike to get excited for the future. So I took that feeling and wrote this song to emotionally ‘charge up’ the team and its fans to ‘fight on,’” said MacLeod on what inspired him to write the anthem. “I write and sell songs for all genre types – pop, rock and country – and I’ve always wanted to create a song that would inspire fans. I’m pleased with the results of ‘Fight On’ and have heard first hand from fans of USC how much they love it. A Florida fan even told me recently that he wished his school had a song like this, which was great to hear,” commented MacLeod.
