Credits Is there a bigger musical event this year than the release of the Metallica album? Could be, but I can’t think of any other thing. They’ve got reclaiming, reconquering, and recreating to do – and that’s no easy job, even for them. After the disappointing not-so-impressive St. Anger, true fans are expecting a return to the roots; we’re waiting for the amazing music we know they can do. The amount of attention directed towards…
That’s right boys and girls, the British trio is working on something (we hope will be) just as good, if not better than ‘Black Holes and Revelations’. Back in their study in Italy, drummer Dominic Howard took the time to talk a bit about their work. “About a week ago we just started on some new stuff and actually started playing some new tracks and writing some new songs. So we are just getting the…
Anathema pleased us all again when they announced that they have finished the “Hindsight” album – it’s already been sent to the record company by the masters. As you may (and should have) heard, “Hindsight” is a semi acoustic album of classic Anathema tracks, and includes one new song. They made this public (or at least I read it) at metalstorm.ee. Also, their new album, “Horizons”, is well underway. What surprised me was that they…
What’s this? Dave Grohl just wrote to Metallica? That’s right, former Nirvana drummer and current Foo Fighters frontman Dave Grohl has released an “open letter” to Metallica. Call me an idiot, but there’s only one reason he’d do this – he’s afraid it’s going to suck. OK, maybe suck is a harsh word… he’s afraid the album they’re going to release will not rise to it’s potential (aren’t we all?). Anyway, great letter, and I…
That’s right ladies and gents, Pearl Jam has commenced recording another studio effort, which will actually be their ninth studio album. For this purpose they’re working with producer Brendan O’Brien, guitarist Mike McCready told Seattle radio station KISW last Thursday (May 1). Despite the fact that just “four or five” songs are complete so far, McCready said that the band hopes they will be able to release this album in 2008. Aside from Pearl Jam,…
AC/DC are the kind of band that’s so great you can never get enough of them. Actually they’re not a kind of band, they’re their own kind of band! So good news for all of you who love their fantastic music: they’ve finished recording and are currently mixing the effort for a late 2008 release. Brian Johnson released this piece of information Tuesday, April 22. Johnson has apparently left the studio in Vancouver, British Columbia,…
Oh boy, here we go again. I must have heard this 10 times at least, every time from a reliable source or something… This album is getting more and more like UFOs and the moon landing in 1969 – every time you hear about it it sounds less and less true. Especially since their guitarist left to rejoin NIN (no, not Slash…), and the rumors that this album is actually going to be bluegrass ….
Well I dunno about you, but I’m eagerly awaiting their new album; it’s among the top 3 in my most expected list this year. But aside from their studio work, they’re doing so much other things that keep them close to the fans and in the spot light.A really uncommon thing they’re doing is the fact that they’re going to attend some college shows; this is really great and I know some people are thrilled….
As some of you know, Bryan Adams is set to return with ’11’, an album which consists of 11 songs (go figure). The bad thing is that it didn’t came out in 11 November, but the good thing is that it’s going to be released sooner than 2011. But it was finished since August, so why didn’t we get it? Well frankly, because the record labels are nowhere near dead as some sugges; they are…
Well we’ve been awaiting for them to make their move for quite a while, but the wait has not been in vain. According to Daily Star, Arctic Monkeys are going to release their third album this year. This would be their third album in just three years, quite a remarkable performance.Alex Turner and co. are believed to be busy recording in their London studio the follow-up to ‘Favourite Worst Nightmare’, which would complete their hattrick….
