MACBETH - news


MACBETH In pre production for the new album.

Italian gothic metallers MACBETH have confirmed that the band is currently in pre-production for its fifth full-length.
Commented the group: "We know. It has been a while since our last update and that is not without reason. This year has been a pretty busy and tumultuous one for band members. We've been hard at work writing material for the next album since last winter, but unfortunately we have been forced to take a break during this spring and summer as Max needed to recover from a serious shoulder injury exacerbated by playing guitar. Luckily Max's shoulder is fully healed and he's working on new stuff right now. Among other things (on September the 4th), Fabrizio and Morena got married after being together almost ten years! Currently in pre-production phase the band is working on vocal lines and lyrics for almost 10 brand new songs. All we can say is that we feel it's some of the best stuff we have ever written. The new studio album is as yet untitled and still without a release date. More details about studios will follow as soon as everything is confirmed. Stay tuned for updates!"

NIGHTWISH start the recording of their upcoming album



NIGHTWISH have officially started recording the follow-up to 2007's "Dark Passion Play". Drummer Jukka Nevalainen writes on the band's official web site, "After spending an intensive summer camp on Finnish countryside and putting a final touch to [a pre-production/demo recording of all the songs that will be featured on the CD], we started recording the drums for our next album. We gathered together [on Thursday, October 14] and set up the drums and all the recording devices. [Friday, October 15] was mostly spent just perfecting the sounds. Just like with our last album we got some back-up from Mr. Kai Hahto (SWALLOW THE SUN and WINTERSUN), who is known to be able to conjure godly sounds by tuning the drums. The legendary duet of Mikko Karmila and TeeCee Kinnunen are taking care of the engineering again. [Friday night] ended with a complete take of the first song, so the recording session has now officially started!"

Xe-NONE signs deal with CHAOTIC NOIZ



Russian Industrial Dance Metal band Xe-NONE have signed a record deal with CHAOTIC NOIZ (division of Russian major label SOYUZ) to release their second album.

Lexy Dance (vocal) says: "Signing a deal to release our second full-length "Dancefloration" with CHAOTIC NOIZ is a big step for Xe-NONE. We're happy that the label put trust in our band and we're more than sure it's the beginning of a beautiful friendship! We entered a new level, which made us take our material and its realization more seriously. That's why, we've been running out of schedule a bit. Nevertheless, I can say that the preliminary mixes we have already recorded prove that our new album is gonna kick ass! It sounds much more powerful than what we did before. I think that this is the very record where we have finally found that necessary balance between dance and extreme parts of our music. Yes, we did change in some sense, but it's still Xe-NONE. Our new album will be another crazy and wild trip to the music territories that only few have try to tread in sound mind and memory!"

The album is planned to be out in January 2011 as a part of the label's thematic release series entitled «Cyber Revolution». More information to come! Stay tuned!

Currently, Xe-NONE looking for label to release the album in Europe and America.

TARJA: Second 'Until My Last Breath' Video Released

The second video for "Until My Last Breath", a brand new song from Tarja Turunen, can be viewed below. Tarja says, "We filmed it with my talented friends from Same eYes company in Kuusankoski and Kouvola in Finland."

She adds, "The most important thing was to get Mr. Arvi Lind as our guest for the video. Arvi is one of the most-known news anchors from Finland.

"It was fun to search old photos and check some filmed material for the video.

"I am happy with the final result. My friends did great!

"The whole idea for the video was born as the idea for the song itself: the happenings around Michael Jackson's death."



One way or another, they're gonna getcha: Female-fronted bands, fans and artists getting ready to take over the Portage Theater in Chicago, IL.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Chicago, Illinois, United States of America September 8, 2010 -

Hard rock, long hair, ripped jeans and disgruntled battle cries aren't only attributed to male musicians. Dame-Nation is quickly proving to the music world that there are quite a few talented female rockers out there.

Dame-Nation's first event was last winter in Chicago, IL and was touted as a "female driven mega-show". It featured celebrity rock host Ambre Lake (from VH1's Bret Michaels Rock of Love 2), Jessica Robinson (a finalist from Rockstar INXS) with HighGlossBlack, Jodi Kell and Petra Sith with Losing Scarlet, Hannah Ford with her Hannah Ford Band, Kimm Ladd with F.H.O.D., Kryssie Ridolfi with Deadmanswake, Tracey Sage with SAGE4, Brooke Bartlett with Whiskey Blonde and Pain-Kurst Girls Gia and Olivia; all-in-all eleven edgy performers with roots in Chicago who came together to put on an eight hour hard rock concert event.

The media knew a hot story when it saw one; published articles appeared in The Chicago Tribune Triblocal, The Chicago Sun-Times, The Daily Southtown/Star, CLTV's entertainment segment as well as webzine and small-run editorials. The event was advertised on radio, in music magazines and on every social networking site imaginable.

The creative concepts, PR, talent acquisitions, event production and promotions are organized and carried out by Eric Sanchez of Rock Mobster Entertainment. Eric states, "our focus right now is to give as much attention to these female based bands and see how far they can go in their careers. They're amazing! They possess admirable stage presence and deserve to be on the same stage as current "pop-summer fest" bands. The Chicago music scene has a lot of great talent and unfortunately it either comes down to luck, who you know, how much you're willing to invest or who helps you along the way". Sanchez continues, "I would like to learn as much about this industry as I can, establish myself, make some great partnerships and be some sort of helping hand for these driven bands".







The next event, the second in 2010, is titled Dame-Nation Redux 2010 and will take place on October 16, 2010 at the Portage Theater in Chicago, IL. The event features a similar in your face line-up but with more of a metal edge. The host for this "mega-show" will be the infamous Metal Sanaz. Metal Sanaz has made a name for herself on the West Coast as a music celebrity. She has worked, hosted, toured and interviewed with almost every iconic rock star in the business today. She is also known for supporting up-and-coming artists throughout the country.

While Metal Sanaz will serve as the "Mistress of Ceremonies" there will be six hard rock bands ready to make an impression on the Chicagoland metal-heads and turn them on to something new, no pun intended. Margaret Young will lead the charge with the headlining A.D.D. (Analog Digital Disorder). A.D.D. is a Chicagoland success by being signed to two record labels, one here in the U.S (DZA) and another in the U.K. (FemmeMetal Records), has music distribution in Best Buy stores and has toured with huge rock acts like Korn, Chevelle, Drowning Pool, Powerman 5000 and more.

The other artists include Michele Caruso with the popular Circle of Fate, Kryssie Ridolfi with Deadmanswake, Kimm Ladd with F.H.O.D., Linda Lars with Wicked Soul and Lisa LoGrasso with Beneath the Stares. All Chicago based bands have a solid local and semi-national following. Bands like Deadmanswake and Circle of Fate have even stirred the hardcore passions of those in other countries like New Zealand, Germany, Australia, and England.

This affordable rock extravaganza ($12 pre-sale) is for those that love music, thrive on the power and passion of hard rock and love being part of something revolutionary and spectacular. Dame-Nation Redux will prove to be another must-attend event!

In addition to the high voltage energy surrounding the event, many rock style supporters have shown their support by either donating, purchasing advertising or being part of the event to add to the aura of the over-the-top presentation that Dame-Nation has become known for. Daisy Rock Girls Guitars will be giving away a guitar while Femme Metal Records has financed a portion of the production; both are listed as official sponsors of Dame-Nation Redux 2010!

If you're within driving, flying or riding distance of Chicago, Illinois on October 16th 2010, make sure you attend this female-driven showcase!

FOREVER SLAVE - About first teasers from their new album

The band FOREVER SLAVE have announced they will upload their first teaser from their upcoming album in September. Her singer told about this album in her personal FACEBOOK some weeks ago:

"This new album is magic. We are including new elements. I use different colors and shades. We are very happy with the songs and the inspiration flow all the time. On the other hand we aren't in a hurry and we change and change thing till Sergio and me are 99% satisfied.That's why, perhaps this will be the best album of Forever Slave, but that last thing must decide our fans"

Recently the band launched an official discussion forum for the fans.

FEMALE METAL AWARDS: and The band of Summer is ...

And the winner is ...Coronatus (Germany) with 370 votes. Our team will contact them very soon to start working with them.

CORONATUS stands for Double-Female-Fronted-Metal from Germany. The unprecedented combination of the exceptional singer Carmen R. Lorch (formerly Schäfer) with the operatic vocals (also a guest musician at ILLUMINATE and BRAINSTORM, etc.) and rock voice Lisa Lasch sets new standards in their genre. The ingenious interplay between the two singers is the basis for both powerful and catchy as well as soulful metal compositions, on which the beautiful duets of the two ladies are able to put a unique finishing touch. The lyrics in English, German and Latin all contribute to the diversity that appeals to very different music tastes.


We can't forget the bands which you haave vote too and you love them too:

Blood Parade (Argentina) with 178 votes
Hamadria (Peru) with 163 votes
Empyrica (Spain) with 144 votes

There were a lot good bands in this competition which we bet on them but they didn't got enough recognition, at least this time.

WINTER'S EVE - Debut Album "Shards"



Another awesome female-fronted band has appeared in the UK Scene. London based symphonic gothic metal band Winter's Eve are ready to conquer the world with their recently released debut album "Shards".

Apart from being influenced by bands such as Within Temptation, Nightwish and Evanescence, they also add some progressive touches to their music while keeping the brutality of metal and the beauty and subtlety of gothic music. Their members are: Lena (vocals), Axeman Jim (guitars and live vocals), Pranay (live lead guitars), Storm (bass) and Klepsy (drums and also vocals on the album).

Their album "Shards" contains 10 songs that reveal their ecletic talents and influences and represent a breath of fresh air in the Gothic Metal music scene. Their mixture of gutural and beautiful -yet powerful- vocals added to exotic melodies and pulsating rhythms are sure to please even the most demanding ears. A definite recommendation to all female-fronted metal fans.

More information about them can be found at: www.myspace.com/thewinterseve and www.winterseve.co.uk

Simone Simons worried about her look (VIDEO)

Simone Simons has uploaded a video titled: "Girls just want to have fun" (how the title of an old rock/soul song). The resume of this video is: two girls buying make-up at Sephora's shop. Drinking juice all the time and eating vegetarian food. Ufff it's very funny!




The last month Simone has posed for several photographers as a model, and people have started saying that she is more worry for her image (look and beauty) than her singing.

If you compare Simone with Tarja, their behaviour and professionalism (with fans, medias,...) Who come off badly in the shareout? I hope you let your opinion.

NIGHTWISH Warn Of Fake Facebook Profiles


Finnish symphonic metallers NIGHTWISH have issued the following warning:

"If you are a Facebook friend with Tuomas, Emppu, Jukka, Anette or Marco, you should know that all those "Tuomas Holopainen", "Emppu Vuorinen", "Jukka Nevalainen", "Anette Olzon" or "Marco Hietala" profiles are FAKE!

We are not talking about fan sites, they are OK, but there are lot of profiles made by person who is acting like he (or she) really is, for example, Tuomas. This is not acceptable. We suggest you to write something not-so-nice to their Facebook-wall if you already are a friend of those fake NW members and you thought that they really are from Nightwish.

If somebody from Nightwish band decides to start their own Facebook (or whatever...) profile, we will inform you about it. Just in case."

WE ARE THE FALLEN Performs IRON MAIDEN's 'Flight Of Icarus' (video)


Fan-filmed video footage of WE ARE THE FALLEN — the group formed by EVANESCENCE co-founder Ben Moody (guitar) and other former members (John LeCompt on guitar and Rocky Gray on drums) along with "American Idol" powerhouse vocalist Carly Smithson and bassist Marty O'Brien (DISTURBED, KELLY CLARKSON, STATIC-X, METHODS OF MAYHEM,TOMMY LEE) — performing a cover version of the IRON MAIDEN classic "Flight Of Icarus" on June 11, 2010 at Melkweg in Amsterdam, Holland can be viewed below.



In a recent interview with Static Multimedia, WE ARE THE FALLEN bassist Marty O'Brien explained how the band decided to perform the MAIDEN track during its concerts. "If anyone thinks that [Carly] ame down and we tried to turn this 'American Idol' girl into a 'rock girl,' it's completely wrong," he said. "The first day she came down to hang out with us, she was wearing an IRON MAIDEN shirt! What's funny is, we do an IRON MAIDEN song in our set live, we do 'Flight Of Icarus'. We also did a cover of MADONNA's 'Like A Prayer'. It was originally going to be on the album, but it'll probably be like a bonus track or be released on a soundtrack or something. But the funny thing this, you'd think she (Carly), being an 'American Idol' girl, would have recommended the MADONNA song and that we were the rock guys and that we wanted to play the 'Flight Of Icarus'. But ever since she came down, she'd been saying how she wants to cover 'Flight Of Icarus', and the MADONNA idea was Ben's idea."
