Das kommenden ANNIHILATOR Album "Metal" kann ab sofort, also schon vor VÖ am kommenden Freitag, in Form neunzigsekündiger Snippets probegehört werden. Zu den Songs geht es hier.
Den Song "This Is Absolution" von KILLSWITCH ENGAGE gibt es nach einer kurzen Registrierung hier online. Gitarrist Adam D. wird außerdem bei der im Juni beginnenden Vans Warped definitiv mit dabei sein. Die von ihm initiierte Spendenaktion "Jerky Across The World" war außerdem nach seinen eigenen Angaben ein voller Erfolg:
"It is time for me to rejoin the Killswitch family this summer for the Warped Tour. Yes, I am looking forward to several months filled with dirty fairgrounds, deli meat, beer farts, and endless six packs underneath the summer sun. Muchas gracias to Pat [Lachman, of Damageplan, who stepped in for Dutkiewicz] for filling in on this last tour. Also, thanks to all of those who participated in the ´Jerky Across The World´ campaign. What started as a cruel joke to flood our A&R representative´s office with jerky turned out to be a sweet outpouring of love from KsE fans. You are all too kind, my sincere thanks goes out to all of you (especially Japan.gotta love that octopus and squid jerky)! Long live dried meat products and see you all on Warped!"
Die Progger DREAM THEATER haben jetzt auch das Cover Artwork zu ihrem voraussichtlich am 01.06.2007 erscheinenden Album "Systematic Chaos" enthüllt - zu sehen rechts neben dieser News.
ON BROKEN WINGS haben sich zu einer Pause entschlossen, um an ihren anderen Projekten arbeiten zu können.
"We have decided to take an indefinite hiatus to work on all the other bands/things we have going on in our lives. We did a lot of tours, played a lot of shows, met a lot of good people, and grew up a lot. We all have new bands, some of us more than 1, some of us more than 2 or 3, haha. We will be playing a few farewell shows, so be on the lookout for updates. Our farewell to the West Coast show will be at the Earth Crisis reunion in Ventura, CA on May 5th. This means CA, Vegas, Arizona... move it."
EIGHTEEN VISIONS haben bekanntgegeben, dass sich die Band auflösen wird. Zwei Shows werden im April noch gespielt, dann ist Schluss.
"After several years of touring and quite a few album releases we have decided that it is time to go our seperate ways. We have been a band for a very long time and feel good about everything we were able to accomplish. At this point in our lives and our careers we feel its time to move on to something fresh and new. Whether it be music, touring or just being at home to live and enjoy life. We would like to thank all of our fans, friends and families for all of the great support over the years. We would also like to thank all of the bands we have shared the stage with and everyone who has ever worked with the band, opened a door or reached out a hand. We will be playing our final two shows in April. One in San Diego and one in Orange County. Come rock with us one more time."
