'Eyes Of The Insane' Video Posted Online

SLAYER's video for the song "Eyes of the Insane" has been posted online exclusively at MP3.com.
Directed by Iranian filmmaker Tony Petrossian (SLIPKNOT), "Eyes of the Insane" is a first-person narrative about the horrors leading up to the final moments of a solder at war. The entire video is a single, long and tight close-up of the soldier's eye with images clearly reflected within his pupil and iris and perfectly choreographed with the rhythm of the music. Reflected are disconcerting images of para trooping into enemy territory, gunfire, helicopters and tanks, explosions, poignant flashbacks of his wife and child and home, and the images of his death. Two endings were filmed — one where the soldier dies from his combat injuries, and the other where he commits suicide.

Agankast performed at the UKs biggest new Festival Bloodstock

Agankast performed at the UKs biggest new Festival Bloodstock in September to a great reaction from the crowd.. with excellent reviews appearing on the BBCs own website surprisingly. Agankast are now in the process of securing some Festival dates in Europe in 2007, which is one step further to their goal of getting out into the balkans for some dates. The band have also begun the early recording stages of their third self promotional CD album. It is set to be a "Double album CD", and expected to be entitled "Walking with Angels" .... this New Double CD continues the prolific songwriting onslaught that accompanys Agankast, with already two albums written and released and an albums worth of free material available online.... Agankast again prove that the difference between a signed band and an unsigned one is very confusing. Read more... |

'Deeper Down' Video Posted Online

MY DYING BRIDE's video for the song "Deeper Down" has been posted online at YouTube.com. According to director Charlie Granberg, the clip is "about a guy that is so filled with grief and self-pity that he sees the world as totally black, even though you get a hint in the beginning of the video that it's summer and all. Then his visions and view of the world takes over. And it just gets darker and darker from there. Is he about to commit suicide or just taking a swim? That's up for you to decide. I have tried working on a subconcious level with a lot of symbolism and metaphors, but still trying to make it somewhat documentary-like and believable."

QUIET RIOT's BANALI, DUBROW Talk About New Album
2006-09-18 - View or add comments : (0)

Wayne "Doobie" Dubay of Glam-Metal.com recently conducted an interview with QUIET RIOT members Kevin DuBrow and Frankie Banali. A couple of excerpts from the chat follow:
Glam-Metal.com: Kevin, I'm excited to hear that QUIET RIOT has a brand new studio album coming out, titled "Rehab". Mind telling us a little about the album and what people can expect from it?
Kevin: It's a departure from previous QUIET RIOT albums. The songs are composed differently, and recorded differently. It's similar to our QUIET RIOT albums in two ways: it's got my vocal sound, which is like it or not, distinctive, and Frankie Banali might be only one of maybe five drummers around who's identifiable with his drum sound. You've got John Bonham, Ginger Baker, Cozy Powell, Frankie Banali, and maybe Keith Moon as guys who are distinctive by their drum sounds, besides their playing. Songwriting-wise, we dug into our '70s roots, and some of the guitar texture are more modern sounding. Not modern sounding like you may think, but more bluesy, I think.
Glam-Metal.com: How happy are you with the new release, and is there anything you'd like to say about the new record Frankie?
Frankie: I'm very happy with the fact that it's getting released, and that it's getting released worldwide. Beyond that, I think it's a great record, I think the songs are great, I think it's a very different QUIET RIOT record, but we'll let the listening public decide what they think.
Kevin: It's all about the songs. The big emphasis was on the song writing, and other times for one reason or another, we went in a direction that was applicable to all four people that were playing in the group. On this one, Frankie and I were able to go in whatever direction we wanted to, and not having to cater to any personal style other than what we wanted to do.

METALLICA drummer Lars Ulrich joined Ian Gillan on stage during the DEEP PURPLE frontman's solo gig Monday night (September 11) at Slim's in San Francisco. According to one eyewitness report at the Metclub.com forum, "Ian invited Lars to the stage and said Lars kept him drinking untill 4:00 a.m. in the morning the night before... Lars sat behind the drums and they played 'Smoke On The Water' just before the encore. It was a great treat! We all know what kind of an impact DEEP PURPLE had in Lars' life. I feel very lucky to witness him playing a DEEP PURPLE song with Ian Gillan. And I think Lars did a great job. Well done, Lars!"
Gillan's current five-week North American run is in support of "Gillan's Inn", which he released to celebrate 40 years in the music business. He will wrap things up September 21 in Medina, Minnesota.

Former DEATH/CYNIC Drummer Remembers CHUCK SCHULDINER

ChAoS MuSiC FoRuM recently conducted an interview with former CYNIC/DEATH and current AEON SPOKE drummer Sean Reinert. A couple of excerpts from the question-and-answer session follow:
Chaos-Forum: You appeared on DEATH's "Human" album. Why did Chuck choose you? Did you know him previously? How was it to work with Chuck and Steve DiGiorgio and Paul Masvidal?
Reinert: "Yes, DEATH's 'Human' was my first 'real' recording date.
"I think Chuck chose me because of the stuff he had heard on the CYNIC demos. We had been friends for a few years at that time. Paul and Chuck had spoken on the phone a lot and we used to make road trips up to Altamonte Springs (where Chuck lived) to watch DEATH rehearse and hang out. I remember taking a bus trip up to Gainesville with my friend Brian Bender to go see DEATH and HELLWITCH play. I was 14 and he was 15. So I had known Chuck for a few years by that time.
"Working with Steve and Paul was great fun. I had obviously been working with Paul in CYNIC so it was fun to work with him in different project.

"Just a little update on what I've been up to lately. I know it's been some time since the last one!

It was quite a long tour as most of you know and we were fortunate enough not only to play in front of many familiar faces, but to brand new audiences around the world as well. Read more... |
