The Seattle-based quintet NEVERMORE are currently wrapping up the songwriting process for their highly anticipated new album, set for a summer release. In February, the group will head to Backstage Studios in England to begin recording with legendary producer Andy Sneap (ARCH ENEMY, OPETH). This will mark the group’s first recording with guitarist Steve Smyth (ex-TESTAMENT). The band will proceed to debut some new material on a short European tour in March. In other news, due to overwhelming demand, the group’s critically acclaimed 2003 album, Enemies of Reality, is currently being remixed by Sneap and will be repackaged with altered cover artwork, two promotional video clips (the title track and 'I, Voyager') and a live video of the title track performed at Germany’s Wacken Open Air festival this past summer. The remixed Enemies of Reality will replace the existing version of the album in stores beginning in March. Fans who have already purchased the record and want to hear the new edition can special order it from the CenturyMedia.com web shop, where the CD itself will be sold individually (i.e., without jewel case and artwork) for $5, including shipping. The disc will be mailed in a CD sleeve; a link to a special website containing the downloadable revised artwork will be included in order confirmation e-mails. Frontman Warrel Dane further describes his excitement over the album being remastered, “We're glad that we can all finally hear Enemies of Reality the way it should have sounded in the first place. Andy's mixes sound brutal, and the infamous blanket of mud is gone. We're hard at work getting ready for the studio. The new material is shaping up to be some of our best work yet. We’re psyched to get in the studio with Andy and tear it up again.”

Candlemass posted the following update: “Hello again fans of Doom!! Things are now happening fast in the C-mass camp! Messiah, Leif, Lars, Jan and Mappe are in the studio right now to record a motherfucker of a record, the first one in 15 years!! Last time the classic line-up was in the studio together was for the Tales Of Creation album, and from what I have heard so far, this one will be even better. This is classic Candlemass doing what they do best: Epic, Doom, Metal!!! If you are curious how it goes.... check out the studio report with Leifs personal notes and pictures. You find it on the main page.”

Nadajmo se da ce se brzo u potpunosti oporaviti, i da ce poceti snimanje dugo ocekivanog albuma PARADOX-a.

Vjerujem da ce Andy Sneap sve srediti kako treba,znajuci da je on jedan od najboljih producenata.

Producer Andy Sneap (MACHINE HEAD, ARCH ENEMY, SKINLAB, MASTERPLAN) is remixing NEVERMORE's "Enemies of Reality" album for re-release via the Century Media label in early 2005. "Enemies of Reality" (2003) was originally recorded in Seattle with producer Kelly Gray (QUEENSRŸCHE, SLAVE TO THE SYSTEM, DOKKEN) and was widely criticized for its muddy, inferior production compared to that of its predecessor, 2000's "Dead Heart in a Dead World", which was produced by Sneap. NEVERMORE are expected to enter the studio with Sneap in February 2005 to begin recording their follow-up to "Enemies Of Reality", tentatively due late summer/early fall via Century Media.

Novi album "8 Deadly Sins" je odlican,i apsolutno ga preporucujem svakome ko je volio njihove ranije radove.Ovaj bend je definitivno jedan od onih na koje se ne zasluzeno obraca mala paznja.Svako ko voli agresivni power na ivici sa thrash Metalom,jednostavno mora voljeti ove Dance. P.S. Molim moderatora da napise pravilno naziv benda u naslovu ove teme. Sve najbolje !!!

Once again Zak Stevens, Jon Oliva and Chris Caffery have joined forces in writing this remarkable CD. Also contributing 2 songs is new song writing partner Bernd Aufferman.

FEEL THE HEAT! - CATCH THE FEVER !!!

"Evil Star" je odlican,i nije ni cudo sto je u mnogim casopisima po izlasku proglasen albumom mjeseca.Svima koji vole "Black Wings" sigurno ce se dopasti i ovaj album.Za fanove SLAYER-a valja reci da su uradili obradu njihove pjesme "Die By The Sword",i ona dolazi kao bonustrack.Sve u svemu,ovaj bend zasluzuje veliku paznju svakog ko voli pravi heavy Metal.

Odlicnu produkciju na novom albumu uradio je,ko bi drugi do - ANDY SNEAP!

"Tempo Of The Damned" je odlican album,i siguran sam da ce se svim ljubiteljima thrash-a dopasti.Come back je apsolutno vrijedio,jer su napravili album pun energije,cistih rifova,dobrih solaza,a i produkcija je na nivou.Inace vidim da se mnogima ne dopada glas Souza-e,ali meni je on ok,i dosta podsjeca na Elsworth-a iz OVERKILL-a.

Eh,samo da dodju u februaru u BG,jer bi to bilo nesto fenomenalno!Nadam se da je "Blondie" dobila neku provjerenu informaciju,jer vjerujem da ne bi sirila dezinformacije,posto znamo koliko voli MEGADETH.

Novi album "Hellfire Club" je odlican,i nekako melodijama mi je najblizi ipak neprevazidjenom "Mandrake"-u.Glas Tobbias Sammet-a je izuzetno napredovao,i to je odmah uocljivo prlikom slusanja prve pjesme na albumu "Mysteria".

Evo da se pridruzim hvalospjevima na racun prvijenca benda PHARAOH Odlican album,cisti heavy,sa pomalo power-a,produkcija na nivou,i naravno ono sto cini ovaj album posebnim je fenomenalan vokal Tim Aymar-a!Jedva cekam njihovo novo izdanje.Puna preporuka za sve ljubitelje ovog pravca!

Nazalost,prvi album imam samo u mp3 formatu,a originalni disk nigdje ne mogu naci,jer je uradjen u svega 1000 primjeraka

Samo se plasim da nece svirati vise od pola sata.

AGENT STEEL: News from Amsterdam Added Wednesday, June 2 Added By: Dreamaster AGENT STEEL guitarist Juan Garcia has issued the following update: "Greetings metalheads? Juan from AGENT STEEL here kickin' it in my second fave city in the world Amsterdam of course. I attended the Rock Hard Festival this past weekend and let me tell you MACHINE HEAD kicked some serious ass....good to see Phil Demmel from VIO-LENCE shredding up the MH tunes!! Other bands that raged were METAL CHURCH with their new vocalist from ROTTWEILLER, and also on second guitar Jay Reynolds from MALICE (talk about old school). Great line-up!! Great new material from the Pacific NorthWesterners. "Alright a quick update from this Internet cafe here in Amsterdam Central. AGENT STEEL will be performing at the Effenaar in Eindhoven, Holland this Friday nite (June 4) at the Dynamo pre-party along with SHADOWS FALL and AFTER ALL...this will be our warm-up show before the Dynamo Open Air on Saturday (June 5). We will be playing a brand new song, and also some old catalog material that we haven't done live for quite sometime. I ran into Kerry King and Dave Lombardo of SLAYER walking around Amsterdam today.....they were getting ready for some rehearsals and I am sure they will crush at Dynamo this weekend. In other AGENT STEEL news we finished up recording three new songs and we will post some mp3's on our website in a week....later."

Posted by Jon Schaffer on Monday, May 17, 2004 at 7:54AM : Greetings! Again I must apologize for the delay in updating you all on the current events of I.E., it’s seems there’s never enough hours in the day. The tour has been an astounding success thus far with most of the shows being sold out; many in record time for Iced Earth. The legion of our passionate and incredibly loyal fans is growing as always and we are extremely grateful. The most significant bit of news to report is that Richard Christy will no longer be with the band after the LA show. He has decided to pursue his comedy career by being a permanent fixture on the Howard Stern show. Though Richard’s timing on informing the band of this was somewhat less than professional, as he informed us of his intentions in the middle of the tour instead of before it started, we do wish him well and all the best for his future. He feels he will be better suited for the comedy world than the music world based on some recent experiences, and he’s probably right, Richard is a very funny and unique guy. Replacing Richard will be Bobby Jarzombek of “Halford” and “Riot” notoriety. Bobby is an excellent drummer and we will be rehearsing in Los Angeles before we start the extension of the U.S. dates. Another thing I would like to address is the BWBK “controversy.” First let me say that at the time of writing this I have not seen anything on Brave Words site or any “official” statement from them concerning the issue at hand. I don’t have a lot of access to the net on tour and when I do it’s for business purposes only, not to see what the obsessive gossipers are ranting about on any given chat room. In fact the only reason I’m addressing this is because it is relevant to my integrity and what this band stands for. The issue at hand is “integrity” in journalism and the serious lack of it. Not only is the world of serious news tainted with bad journalism, the rock world is as well. One example is the way that Blabbermouth.com chose to take one paragraph out of context from an interview with Revolver Magazine. This paragraph in its original context told a very different story from the Blabbermouth report. It went from a funny story that Tim was telling to get a laugh out of people, to a story that insinuated there were problems between him and I. Nothing is further from the truth. What good can this possibly serve? Are these people so pathetic and their lives so lame that they have to make up bullshit to feel relevant? Or is it simply about creating controversy to sell magazines or stories when there is none? And if that’s the case are they not talented enough writers’ to report stories that are true and interesting? The BWBK situation is different but reeks of the same problem. Our “boycott” of the magazine has to do with the way they “improvised” my conversation with the journalist for our feature story. There are people out there who blame the United States for all the bad things in the world just the way the Nazi’s blamed the Jews for everything. The individual I did the interview with was one of those people. My problem is that the way the interview reads has nothing to do with the way the conversation went. Example: The first question out of this “journalists” mouth was “Don’t you think the attacks of 9-11 were warranted?” It was not the big paragraph of text that the “journalist” wrote in the article where he is stating that due to some of the U.S. foreign policies there are those around the world that feel we deserved to be attacked. That was not the way the question was asked. It was “Don’t you feel the attacks of 9-11 were warranted?” The questions got worse from there and any fair minded person that would hear the conversation in its true form, I believe, would be offended as well. I challenged the journalist during our conversation to print the conversation the way it was or that he’d be the one who would have to live with a dishonest conscience and face the consequences. I see the choice that’s been made. Why am I surprised? People with these radical views, no matter the ideology, are rarely honest with themselves let alone anyone else. This “boycott” has nothing to do with the fact that we disagree about certain issues, I believe deeply in free speech, intelligent debate and intelligent dissent. It has nothing to do with the fact that most of the BWBK staff chose to base their opinions of “The Glorious Burden” on politics rather than the music and the history that inspired it. It doesn’t even matter that they tried to patronize us with their little cartoons of Tim and I in Revolutionary War uniforms, which was very cool artwork by the way, kudos to the artist. No…… this comes down to taking a stand against shitty journalism. We’ve been dealing with this kind of thing for years, like all bands do, but this time the seriousness of the underlying issue warranted a more drastic response. Magazines and bands have a business relationship. In order to have a prosperous relationship there should be honesty and integrity involved to maintain such a relationship. All they would have had to do was print the conversation the way it was, and everything would be fine….they made their choice, we made ours….. We wish BWBK no ill will; we just prefer not to do business with them anymore. As for the European tour, it looks as though we will be doing our headline tour in November/December this year. Again, I sincerely apologize to the European fans for the postponement of the tour. I promise it will be worth the wait and we will give you a hell of a show when we get there. You’re the best fans anyone could ask for and we love you!!! Demons & Wizards is coming along slowly but surely. Due to our intense work schedules it’s taken longer than we wanted but it will also be worth the wait. We have about half of the albums basic arrangements done and it is awesome! This is really going to be something special. We hope it will be out in spring of 2005 if things go as planned. That’s all for now people. We look forward to the rest of the shows and the big festivals we’re headlining in Europe. I.E. will be touring a lot in the next year and a half and we have some great things planned for you. As always, thank you for being the best, most loyal and loudest fans any band could ask for! Strength & Honor! Jon
