May 31st, 2007	PROGPOWER SCANDINAVIA: More Details Revealed The organizers of the ProgPower Europe festival have added another edition to the ProgPower festival concept: ProgPower Scandinavia. The inaugural installment of the festival will take place on November 9-10, 2007 at The Rock in Copenhagen, Denmark and will feature performances by ANDROMEDA, CIRCUS MAXIMUS, THRESHOLD and MERCENARY. Commented the organizers in a statement: "We think it is really nice to see the ProgPower concept is growing. Since we started the festival in Europe back in 1999, there are now editions in the USA, U.K. and Scandinavia. And who knows what's next!" PROGPOWER USA Sold Out; Surprise Headline Set Announced The organizers of the ProgPower USA festival have announced a surprise headline set for this year's sold-out edition of the internationally renowned festival. Saturday night (October 6) will now finish with an all-star cover set featuring vocalists from both the showcase and the festival. Each vocalist will be given the opportunity to perform 1-2 cover songs of their choice with the music being provided by the members of PAGAN'S MIND. Additional guests will join them throughout the set. "The fans have made this festival a success and it's time to give something back to them," said ProgPower USA promoter Glenn Harveston. "I wanted to announce this after the sell-out as a reward instead of in advance as an incentive. It's going to be one hell of a party on stage." As a result of the additional performance, there has been a major change in the schedule and door times. "I had to shake things up quite a bit to make this work," Harveston explained. "However, the fans can relax knowing that not one band will have a single minute cut from their previously announced set lengths." The new schedule and door times can be found at the festival web site. ProgPower USA VIII will once again return to Atlanta's Center Stage Oct. 5-6, 2007.

The double vinyl comes with the following list of mixes, including two exclusive mixes and an additional three tracks not on the CD, as follows: Underdog (ZOMBIE GIRL REMIX) The Grudge (GOTHMINISTER MIX) Twist the Knife (The Gibbering Mix by IMPLANT) Broken Skin feat.

CD still can’t stand up to the pure artistic space that is open to you on an LP. “The creativity that was explored with the vinyl format (especially in the ‘70s) was pure magic and that died when CD came along. I think to some extent you can be creative with a CD too but it’s nowhere close. I try to get vinyl versions of everything we do, although sometimes that just doesn’t happen. We’re doing it now, and it is something I will be fighting for with every release we do in the future. “As well, to be as creative as possible in an environment that reflects that, vinyl records are a great medium to showcase cool ideas.” “Some Kind of Heroin” is released on April 16 in Europe. www.mortiis.com www.myspace.com/mortiis1 http://vampirefreaks.com/u/papajuju DARK FUNERAL NORTH AMERICAN TOUR 2007 More dates announced....

HAMMERFALL have announced a new bass player: Fredrik Larsson, original member of the band, has re-entered the realms of the Swedish steel gods and will replace Magnus Rosen from now on! "I am very happy and excited to be back! I have known the guys for more than ten years and we have kept in touch all the time, so it is not as if I come in a complete stranger. We played a few songs together last weekend, and it felt like 1997 was just a couple of weeks ago", says Fredrik about coming back into the fold. Oscar comments: "Fredrik brings structure to the rhythm section and I think you will definitely hear and feel the difference when we play live". "He plays with a pick, for one, and has a great groove and timing, all of which will make HAMMERFALL sound better than we ever have before", Anders remarks, and Stefan chimes in: "We are all very psyched about this and can't wait to get on the road again." "Fredrik recorded 'Glory To The Brave' with us, so he's definitely a part of the family. It's great to have him back!" adds Joacim. Check out the revitalized HAMMERFALL at their gigs at Rock Hard festival, Bang Your Head festival, Masters Of Rock and more open air shows during this summer! More dates to be announced very soon. GOTTHARD video shoot for "the call" finished! Last week the video for GOTTHARD´s first online single "The Call" – taken from the new album "Domino Effect" (release on April 27th) – has been shot in Nuernberg/Germany. Directed by Martin Mueller from RCN-TV the clip has been shot in the famous Grand Hotel. There, the beautiful Richard-Wagner-Saloon as well as the Honeymoon Suite have been the locations for the shooting of the extraordinary clip. "As the song itself is a very traditional ballad we wanted the clip to be everything else than traditional", bass player Marc Lynn explained to the newspaper “Nuernberger Zeitung”, which reported about the video shoot. "For example, we will have one scene, in which Steve Lee, our singer, sits in a restaurant with a girl and the waitress serves him a cut out heart." So we can look forward...

May 30th, 2007	ONCE DEAD SIGNS WITH OPEN GRAVE RECORDS Formed as a re-incarnation of the notorious thrash metal outfit “Vengeance Rising”, L.A.’s Once Dead boasts a refreshing dose of old school thrash metal, combined with a triple guitar assault and a lineup of seasoned musical veterans. All of the members have impressive musical resumes, with high profile acts under their belts such as Deliverance, Fasedown, Hirax, Sircle of Silence, The Blamed and The Crucified. The band was formed when Vengeance Rising members Larry Farkas and Doug Thieme along with bass player Roger Dale and drummer Glen Mancaruso did a gig at the “Summer Madness” event in August of 2004 at Chain Reaction in Anaheim, California . Appearing as guest vocalist would be none other than Scott Waters of Ultimatum. Under the threat of legal action from the absent Roger Martinez, the band quickly changed their name to “Once Dead”. A DVD of this show would be recorded, and would have sustained interest, which would lead the band to a spot on the Cornerstone festival in 2005. During this time, various personnel changes were to occur, with ex-Vengeance Rising and Hirax member Glenn Rogers joining the group in January 2006, and Scott Waters leaving the front man position, to be replaced by Devin Shaeffer of Fasedown. The lineup was to be completed by ex Hirax member Angelo Espino, and Jim Chaffin on drums. Once Dead is currently in the studio putting the finishing touches on their debut album, “Visions of Hell” which is due out the summer of 2007 on Open Grave Records. In other Once Dead news: Glenn Rogers leaves Hirax to act as full time Once Dead member Statement from Glenn Rogers: Today I have to announce that I'm no longer with the band Hirax. I loved my time in the band, and I'm sorry it came to an end. Due to some personal reasons it is no longer possible for the band, and my self to work together. I do wish them luck, and I'll leave it at that. As of now I have committed my time, and energy to the band Once Dead. I have been personal friends with them for many years, and I'm looking forward to finishing the new cd with them. For the fans, and friends of Hirax I want to thank you for all the support over the years. I hope that you will carry that support over to my new band Once Dead, and give us a chance. I look forward to seeing you on the road...

Chthonic’s past American performances have been limited to special appearances at metal festivals, where the group first began making a name for themselves stateside a few years back. “It took us 10 years to be on the stage of Ozzfest and it’s one of the biggest opportunities of our career,” said bassist Doris. “Based on the experience of our numerous tours in Asia, we have faith that metalheads in the U.S. are going to be blown away by this Typhoon of Oriental Extreme Metal.” In its 12th year, Ozzfest has made the bold move to become “FreeFest,” an event entirely free for fans. Tens of thousands of fans are expected to attend. Called “the Black Sabbath of Asia” by the Taipei Times for its impact on heavy music, Chthonic has furthered its Western reputation with the release of its latest – and fourth in all – release, “Seediq Bale.” Using the weepy sounds of the “er-hu,” a traditional Eastern two-string violin that dates back to the Tang Dynasty of the 618-907, Chthonic adds a unique element to its symphonic style of black metal. Chthonic has stirred up controversy in the past with its strong Taiwanese pro-independence stance, which has been the focus of much of the band’s past material. In keeping with its culturally-inspired concepts, “Seediq Bale” reaches further back into Taiwanese history to the legend of the Seediq and its struggle with Japan over land and religion. Hailing from a country with a little-known metal scene, Chthonic has gained national attention in its native land where it was awarded “Best Rock Group” at the 14th Annual Golden Melody Awards, the Eastern Asian equivalent of a Grammy. The award was presented to the band by none other than the country’s President Chen Shui-bian. “Music is more powerful, more moving than politicians,” the President said before Chthonic joined him on stage. The group capped off that momentous year by playing the annual New Year’s Eve live, nationally broadcasted concert in front of President’s Hall and with the release of the band’s Mandarin theme for the 21st Century Fox Taiwan release of “Freddy vs. Jason.” Chthonic’s previous albums, “Where the Ancestors’ Souls Gathered,” “9th Empyrean,” and “Relentless Recurrence,” have been recorded in both Mandarin and English.

Lizzy Borden album cover Photo shoot Lizzy Borden has shot the cover of the as yet un-named new recording due out the end of summer. Lizzy is working with special effects wizard and make-up artist Ralis Kahn (www.ralisfx.com) Although no details have been revealed, Ralis has designed the set and the look of the band based on the characters in the storyline of the new recording. Famed "Metal" photographer Alex Solca took well over a 1,000 shots in a two-day marathon, involving extras as well as the band (Lizzy, Joey Scott, Marten Andersson and Ira Black). At the end of the two-day shoot the set was literally set a blaze! with flames shooting 30 feet into the air! And all captured on film. "Because a lot of music is going straight to itunes, we thought we would pay special attention to both the cover and the back cover and fill the inside of the CD booklet with tons of fun shots from this specialized photo shoot. As we all know, very soon there will no longer be an actual CD to have a cool booklet for. Everything will go straight from the studio to your ipod, so we thought we would really do this one up right!" commented Lizzy Fifteen hours worth of video footage was also filmed during the two day shoot. Stay tuned to www.Lizzyborden.com for the "Making of" as well as the cover to be posted soon. In other news: Lizzy Borden has enlisted the "metal guitar" services of Jack Frost. Jack is coming on board to play the New England metal festival (April 28) with us as the second guitarist with Ira black.

May 20th, 2007	LION'S SHARE Signs With AFM RECORDS After four successful albums and several tours with bands like MANOWAR, DIO, MOTÖRHEAD, SAXON, U.D.O., ICED EARTH and NEVERMORE, Swedish heavy metal masters LION'S SHARE are back with their long-awaited comeback masterpiece, "Emotional Coma", due out on June 15 in Europe through AFM Records.

According to a press release, "Emotional Coma" is "the heaviest and most powerful LION'S SHARE record to date" and it features guest appearances by Bruce Kulick (KISS), Glen Drover (MEGADETH) and Mats Levén (THERION, YNGWIE MALMSTEEN). Commented Markus Wosgien, A&R of AFM Records: "The new record is heavy metal at its finest. It shows the band from another side, less progressive, more straight and metal.

Ring of Stupidity (bonus track for Japan and digipak) www.lionsshare.org www.myspace.com/lionsshare http://www.afm-records.de/en/news/news-134.html AS LIGHT DIES News As Light Dies is an eclectic and experimental band that mixes styles as black, doom, death metal, folk, contemporaneous music and progressive rock. "A Step Through the Reflection" is a very ambitious recording, exploring new paths in their music, turning it much more extreme and twisted, trying new sounds and atmospheres. About 70 minutes of music with influences that may remind to bands as Ved Buens Ende, Orphanage, Borknagar, Opeth, Arcturus, Cynic, Pink Floyd and Anathema. The final result is a peculiar, avantgarde and technical style, that combines both, melodic and agressive, creating ambients that takes the audience to strange, fabulous, fantastic and macabre oniric landscapes.

Still, the sold-out Schleyerhalle crowd was unprepared for what bassist Joey DeMaio would announce as he stepped to the front of the stage. On July 7, 2007, Manowar will headline the Magic Circle Festival in the heart of Germany, Bad Arolsen. The crowd was thrown into a further frenzy when the bassist announced that festival tickets will cost only 10 Euros. "It is a way to thank the true fans for their undying loyalty during the last two years of unfortunate delays of touring and record releases," explained DeMaio. The band's Schleyerhalle performance was part of the sold-out Demons, Dragons & Warriors Tour 2007. The tour, which also features Manowar's Magic Circle Music roster mates Rhapsody of Fire and HolyHell, is in support of Manowar's 10th studio album, Gods of War, the latest installment in the band's legacy of classics. Germany, Greece, Hungary and Finland are just a few of the countries where the album remains in the top-20. Look forward to the approaching Magic Circle Festival, DeMaio declared, "This is the unique beginning of something designed for the loyal fans of true metal."

ARCH ENEMY drummer Daniel Erlandsson checks in with an update on the recording process: “Greetings all Arch Enemies! As you might know we are currently recording our new album in Studio Fredman/Sweden. It's been a very smooth ride so far, working with engineers Fredrik and Patrik has been fantastic - these guys are pros! Anyway, all the drum tracks are now completed. We recorded a total of 11 new ARCH ENEMY tracks plus some other extras that I'm sure you will hear about at a later point. The new songs are very fresh at this moment. The new material is very varied, some songs are faster and more extreme than before while some songs are very heavy and melodic - but they all have the ARCH ENEMY imprint in capital letters! I have no doubt that these songs will please those who like to bang their heads to the sound of pure fucking metal! Check out the pictures from the studio! /Daniel” Furthermore, ARCH ENEMY has been confirmed to headline this year’s Up From The Ground Festival in Gemuenden, Germany (see www.uftg.de for detailed info), taking place August 24-25, 2007.
