BOSTON:

BOSTON: 'Life Love & Hope' Cracks U.S. Top 40; New Christmas Single Released

"Life Love & Hope", the brand new album from the legendary rock band BOSTON, sold around 16,000 copies in the United States in its first week of release to debut at position No. 37 on The Billboard 200 chart.

More than a decade in the making, "Life, Love & Hope" was released on December 3 in the U.S. and Canada and is available now for purchase at Amazon and iTunes. The collection of brand new tracks, recorded at BOSTON mastermind Tom Scholz's very own Hideaway Studio II, was produced, arranged, and engineered by Scholz and is BOSTON's first release since 2002's "Corporate America". In addition to Brad Delp and David Victor, current BOSTON singer Tommy DeCarlo, Kimberley Dahme and Scholz himself, contribute vocals on the new album. Diverse yet cohesive, the long-awaited album has something for everyone and will fulfill the expectations of existing fans, while exposing a new generation to one of rock and roll's great acts. Albums purchased at Best Buy contain a bonus track titled "Te Quiero Mia".

BOSTON is currently conquering the U.S. airwaves as "Heaven On Earth", the lead single from the newly released "Life Love & Hope", climbs the classic rock charts. Written and produced by Scholz, "Heaven On Earth" features David Victor on vocals with special guest Louis St. August.

In other news, BOSTON is celebrating the holiday season with the release of a rocking twist on a Christmas classic titled "God Rest Ye Metal Gentlemen". This festive song, produced by BOSTON mastermind Tom Scholz, is available today on iTunes at and features Kimberley Dahme on bass and lead vocals, Gary Pihl and Scholz on vocals and guitars, along with Tom Hambridge on drums. For a limited time, BOSTON fans can also listen to a stream of the track on SoundCloud. Scholz said about the song, "This was my chance to BOSTON-ize one of my favorite Christmas carols. I had so much fun with this one, I think I'll have to try a few more." BOSTON burst onto the music scene with their eponymous best-selling debut album in 1976, and never looked back. With over 17 million copies sold, "Boston" generated hits such as "More Than a Feeling", "Peace Of Mind" and "Smokin'", rock staples that are still in heavy rotation today. Their second effort, "Don't Look Back", was another chart-topper that confirmed their place in rock history, followed by "Third Stage", which hit No. 1 on the charts, with the top single of 1986, "Amanda".

With over 31 million albums sold to date, BOSTON's music has stood the test of time, as evidenced by live BOSTON audiences that spans generations.

IMMINENT SONIC DESTRUCTION Debut 'Breaking Through' Video

IMMINENT SONIC DESTRUCTION Debut 'Breaking Through' Video

Detroit-based prog-metal act IMMINENT SONIC DESTRUCTION have released a new video, for their song 'Breaking Through'. This live video was recorded in 2012 at the band's album release show at The Magic Bag in Ferndale, MI. Check out the 13-minute epic performance video below:

Last month the band completed the search to replace drummer Pat DeLeon, who left the band earlier this year. After several auditions, they tapped Dan Chapa (SWITCHLINE, ROCKSTAR) to be the new member of ISD.
Following a successful North American tour with PAIN OF SALVATION and KINGCROW, Imminent Sonic Destruction began working on new music. The departure of DeLeon sidetracked this effort temporarily, and the band shifted their focus to finding a drummer who had the right mix of personality, humor and talent to take over the job. Chapa turned out to be all of those things, as well as an imposing physical specimen at 6'7" tall.

"Dan showed up with a tiny kit and proceeded to blow us away with his rendition of our songs," said guitarist and lead vocalist Tony Piccoli of the audition. "His technical ability, feel, sense of dynamics and showmanship are exactly what we were looking for. Right away, we all knew he was the guy to help us spread our own unique brand of Progressive Super Metal to the far corners of the globe. Which, interestingly, doesn't have corners."

Chapa had this to say: "I was honored to be asked to audition, and thankful to be chosen. This is a great group of people as well as great musicians. Needless to say, I can't wait to get to work!"

Imminent Sonic Destruction is now hard at work on the follow up to their 2012 debut CD, Recurring Themes, which was produced by Roy Z (BRUCE DICKINSON, SEPULTURA). Updates to follow.

KRAMPUS Debut 'Paralysis' Video

KRAMPUS Debut 'Paralysis' Video

The Italian folk metallers KRAMPUS have just released the video for their new track 'Paralysis'. The song is one of two new hits produced with Tommy Vetterli (ELUVEITIE, CORONER) last Summer and features Eluveitie colleagues Merlin Sutter on drums and Chrigel Glanzmann with a guest appearance on the Uillean pipes. The video was produced again by fellow Italians 4Frame Factory, who the band worked with for their previous single already. Shooting took place at the coast of the Adriatic Sea, under rather strenuous conditions.
Mastermind Filippo “Fil” Gianotti comments:

"We teamed up again with 4Frame since our first collaboration was great, and we had a blast shooting the video with them and all those guests and friends. It's been some hard days fighting really rough weather, but we did it! This video required a large amount of extras and support, but we are lucky to be surrounded by many friends and great people that helped us realize our vision. Andrea Guarascio once again did a great job combining our music with some visual art, and thanks to his new and improved equipment we managed to achieve fantastic results."

GOJIRA

GOJIRA's JOSEPH DUPLANTIER Discusses Songwriting Process For Next Album

In a brand new interview with Performer.com, guitarist/vocalist Joseph Duplantier of French progressive metallers GOJIRA revealed that the band has begun writing material for its next album, tentatively due in 2014. Many of the creative sessions so far have taken place on the tour bus, a phenomenon that Joe admitted is rather new for them.

"I actually hate it," he said. "I mean, I love it when there's an idea and it works and it sounds like there are things happening, but it's really weird to sit in the middle of all these shoes — because everybody throws their shoes in the back lounge, and dirty socks — and a computer, and [drummer/brother Mario Duplantier's drum] pad…

"We're not a rock band anymore, you know? It's like being in a cage, a stinky cage with a computer. It's not the same. I need to be in a room with my friends and jam, so I cannot wait to get to that stage."

He continued: "It's mostly riffs and ideas that we record. We have a list of riffs, but we don't have, really, a song. Well, we have two songs that [we think], Okay, there's a structure here and there are enough ideas to make something. Some of the stuff is really exciting, but the conditions are really difficult, and when the bus is driving…"

GOJIRA's fifth album, "L'Enfant Sauvage", sold almost 11,000 copies in the United States in its first week of release to debut at position No. 34 on The Billboard 200 chart. The band's previous CD, "The Way Of All Flesh", opened with 4,200 units back in 2008 to land at No. 138.

"L'Enfant Sauvage" entered the official chart in France at position No. 7 (No. 17 on the digital chart).

"L'Enfant Sauvage" (which translates to "The Wild Child") features 11 tracks of mind-bending, thunderous metal. The CD was recorded at Spin Recording Studios in Long Island City, New York with co-producer Josh Wilbur (LAMB OF GOD).

Japan's MYPROOF Call It Quits

Japan's MYPROOF Call It Quits

Shimpei, guitarist and vocalist for Japan's MYPROOF, has issued the following statement regarding earlier reports that the band has split up:
"You might have seen the news on our official page and Twitter, but we would like to inform you that, as of 11/1, MyProof has officially disbanded. Although we kept working constantly with the same members in the course of 15 years, our path finally comes to an end.

From this point onwards, I'm going to share my personal opinion, but since the start of the new year the whole band went through unprecedented mental exhaustion and we had to talk about it repeatedly in order for the situation to be settled.

Because we were a band that involved the help/collaboration of many people, we tried to keep our responsibilities at least towards the remaining lives and the scheduled release at the time and planned to take a break after that. We also tried finding more constructive solutions, but even so, our efforts were in vain because no one could eventually go forward (regarding musical direction) or perform on stage.

Of course, as a band of four members, we all have a part of the responsibility, however I, as a leader, have to admit that my emotional strength was insufficient, which is a big part of the reason why we came down to this conclusion.

This band's path was essentially connected to my own life, so it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that it was my everything. Therefore, I honestly do not know what's in store for me from now on. However, keeping MyProof's positive messages in my heart, I will keep going on, towards the future with new hope and sincere effort.

I would like to say I feel deeply thankful towards everybody who ever got involved with MyProof, as work partner or as a fan.

Last but not least, I would like to sincerely thank Thor, Kai and Tadashi for their collaborative efforts until now."

(Thanks to SEASON OF GHOSTS vocalist/mastermind Sophia for the translation).

DESTINITY Announce New Vocalist; Video Streaming

Earlier this year, Lyon, France-based melodic death metallers DESTINITY parted ways with vocalist Mick. The band have now issued the following update:

"Hail friends and fans! It has been a few months without much news from us, during which we went through a recent lineup change but also a new direction for the band. Destinity is now proud to present its new singer Yan Pierrat (former lead singer of X-VISION and current singer of the band FIFTEEN). After having auditioned quite a number of applicants, we chose Yan for his outstanding performance that impressed all of us in terms of energy and vocal ability.

The band continue: "Yan, a warm welcome to the Destinity clan! We are really excited to introduce him to you on stage very soon.. and believe us, he'll blow you away! We also wish to thank all the participants who submitted their applications. Thank you from the bottom of hearts for the interest that you showed for the band!

ELVENKING To Enter Studio Next Week

ELVENKING To Enter Studio Next Week

Italian metallers ELVENKING will enter Domination Studios in San Marino on December 16 to begin recording the follow-up to 2012's "Era" for a late spring release. Symohn will track the drums next week, laying down the foundations of what the band already considers "the ultimate ELVENKING manifesto." Artist Gyula Havancsak, who previously worked with ELVENKING on the covers for "The Winter Wake", "The Scythe" and "Two Tragedy Poets" is already creating new a masterpiece of art.

Comments ELVENKING singer Davide "Damna" Moras: "It is always very easy to talk about 'the last album.' To say how cool it is, how the band has improved and created better music, better lyrics and so on.

"This new ELVENKING album is something completely different, though. We are not talking about a simple new album with a bunch of new songs. We are talking about something bigger. It is a piece of life... of our life, but also our fans' life. It is the ELVEN dream come true. It is our ultimate manifesto where music, lyrics and spirit unite. It's not just about music... there's a whole concept behind this album... It's like when stars align, you know? And this time we are ready! But we'll talk about it more specifically very soon."

Adds guitarist Aydan: "I consider this album to be the closest to the original conceptual idea of the band.

"When we founded ELVENKING, our idea was to mix up strong epic and intense music with influences from folklore and with lyrics based on our personal idea of life and what we consider as a personal sort of paganism. Through the years, we moved steps away from our original path in search of new stimuli and way to express ourselves as songwriters, but now we want to carve the word ELVENKING in our music and idea where the origins of our band are."

The first video clip from the studio can be seen below.

BLACK SABBATH Is

BLACK SABBATH Is 'Ecstatic, Surprised And Very Happy' About Latest GRAMMY Nominations

BLACK SABBATH continued its sterling comeback year by earning Grammy nominations for "Best Rock Album" for "13", along with "Best Metal Performance" and "Best Rock Song" for "God Is Dead?"

BLACK SABBATH's last Grammy win was in 2000 for "Best Metal Performance" for "Iron Man" from the band's "Reunion" live album.

"We are ecstatic, surprised and very happy!" Osbourne said about the latest Grammy nods.

The 56th annual Grammy Awards will take place Sunday, January 26 at the Los Angeles Staples Center and will be broadcast live at 8:00 p.m. ET on CBS.

"13", the first SABBATH album in 35 years to feature guitarist Tony Iommi, bassist Geezer Butler and Ozzy Osbourne recording together, went No. 1 around the world, earning the band their first chart-topper ever in the U.S.

Ozzy said about the prospects of making another record, "I don't want to say there's going to be another album, because I don't want you to ask me in another year, 'What happened when you said you were going to do another record?' I'll leave it open. I'm open for anything. I have three albums to deliver of my own solo thing to my record label."

Ozzy added, "We'll all still be doing music. It's been a lot of fun doing it with BLACK SABBATH, and I'm not sorry at all for getting back together."

The making of "13" was marked by several dramatic events, including drummer Bill Ward's withdrawal from the project over a contractual dispute and Iommi's cancer diagnosis.

BLACK SABBATH will return to North America in 2014 for 10 shows that will be among the last in support of "13".

U.K. Thrashers SHRAPNEL To Release

U.K. Thrashers SHRAPNEL To Release 'The Virus Conspires' In February

Candlelight Records has set a February 3, 2014 European release date for "The Virus Conspires", the full-length debut from English thrash metallers SHRAPNEL. Produced by Russ Russell (NAPALM DEATH, EVILE), it features artwork from Eliran Kantor (TESTAMENT, ATHEIST). The album and its lead single, "Titan", will be available for preorder via iTunes and other digital platforms beginning January 6. Fast, furious, and uncompromising, "The Virus Conspires" is propelled by its freshness and electric intensity. Sonically imposing and explosive, songs like "Braindead", "Red Terror" and album opener "Kingdom Come" are sure to quickly catapult the band to a global audience. Metal Hammer's Dom Lawson has already proclaimed the band an up-and-comer.

Commenting on the band's sound, SHRAPNEL guitarist Chris Martin notes: "Individually, we are pretty different in our tastes, but when we put it all together it works.

"For us, the energy in thrash is just so much more satisfying than anything else. It's technically challenging and exhausting to play live and it gives you that buzz, that rush of adrenaline that few other genres do. It's got to have balls and it's got to have attitude.

"When you find a band that has that bite to them, that testosterone-driven aggression, it's just killer. And that's what we do." Formed in April 2009, the five-man wrecking crew initially bonded over their lack of a vibrant local metal scene. Driven to provide what few others seemed to be doing, SHRAPNEL pooled their myriad influences and came up with a sound that at its formidable core celebrates pure-to-the-bone thrash and speed metal but one that never fails to keep eye on the future of the genre. Proudly citing MEGADETH, SLAYER, TESTAMENT and EXODUS as influences, the band also assimilates elements of everything from traditional heavy metal to modern death metal. The result is a thrilling lesson in neck-wrecking sonic violence. Still buzzing from their triumphant set at Bloodstock Open Air in August, SHRAPNEL is slated to appear alongside KREATOR, OVERKILL and labelmates CORROSION OF CONFORMITY at Hammerfest VI in North Wales (March 13-16). "The Virus Conspire" track listing:

01. Kingdom Come02. Titan03. Braindead04. 2205. The Virus Conspires06. The Wake07. Red Terror08. The Watchers09. Pseudocommando10. Poison the Mind11. All That We Know SHRAPNEL is vocalist Jae Hadley, guitarists Nathan Sadd and Chris Martin, bassist Shaun Mcelhinney and drummer Simon Jackson.
