BEHEMOTH: Too Dangerous For Poland?

BEHEMOTH: Too Dangerous For Poland?

Chris Harris and Jon Wiederhorn of MTV.com report: This week, a Polish anti-sect organization dubbed "The All-Polish Committee for Defense Against Sects" released a list of artist it claims "promote Satanism" or "encourage murder and animal sacrifice" with their music. The group plans to distribute the list to a number of Polish politicians next month, in hopes that the officials will ban said artists from performing in the Central European nation.

The list includes, among others, MARILYN MANSON and SLAYER — who, oddly enough, are touring the U.S. together this summer. Another act making the list is one of Poland's own, blackened death metallers BEHEMOTH — who'll also be touring the U.S. this summer, as part of this year's 11th annual Ozzfest.

Adam "Nergal" Darski, BEHEMOTH's frontman, said he questions the motives of the APCFDAS and thinks the attempt to ban his band from performing in his native land is, well, ridiculous.

"You have these politicians who, for some reason — probably just for self-promotion — want to fight this kind of stuff," he explained. "This is music. This is art. This is some kind of expression, and this is our expression. For some reason, they think it has a negative influence on kids, so they want to stop it. So they made this list that's going to come out next month, and BEHEMOTH is #1. ... I'm not sure if they'll [be able to enforce it], because it's a violation of the most basic democratic rules. It's very extreme and very dangerous."

HEARSE:

HEARSE: 'In These Veins' To Receive North American Release In September

HEARSE is the Swedish "death 'n' roll" band featuring former ARCH ENEMY singer Johan Liiva and ex-FURBOWL drummer Max Thornell, will release its fourth album, "In These Veins", in North America on September 18, 2007 via Candlelight Records.

The follow-up to 2005's "The Last Ordeal", "In These Veins" was recorded and mixed by Dan Swanö (EDGE OF SANITY, BLOODBATH) and is "definitely the best-sounding HEARSE album so far," according to the band. "Dan had pretty much free hands and gave the recording quite a rough touch even though it sounds much more modern than our earlier albums."

In other news, HEARSE is already making plans to record its fifth CD. "15 songs are pretty much finished and a pre-production has been made in the now legendary Stockholm-situated studio Gubbsjuk," the group writes on its web site. "As soon as we get a recording budget we'll begin recording the album."

Formed by longtime friends Thornell and Liiva, HEARSE recorded a demo before signing with Hammerheart Records. The band released a limited-edition 7-inch single, entitled "Torch", prior to issuing their debut album, "Dominion Reptillian", in 2003. A follow-up effort, "Armageddon Mon Amour", came out in 2004. The group's third CD, "The Last Ordeal", came out in August 2005 through Holland's Karmageddon Media.

THE OLD DEAD TREE: New Album Title Announced

THE OLD DEAD TREE: New Album Title Announced

French goth metal act THE OLD DEAD TREE has set "The Water Fields" as the title of its third album, due before the end of the year via Season of Mist. The band will enter Stage One studio in Germany on July 3 with producer Andy Classen to begin recording the CD. According to a press release, the new album's subject matter "deals with an imaginary place where one finds refuge to escape from pain and everyday doubt. This album is about avoidance, kidding oneself, and the urge we have to hide from reality and to remain passive when we are on tenterhooks."

THE OLD DEAD TREE previously described the new material as "a twisted and schizophrenic blend of evocative riffs and arrangements put together with an overload of sheer emotion. The new songs do widen the previous artistic borders without disavowing the typical musical identity of the band."

THE OLD DEAD TREE's last album, "The Perpetual Motion", was released in 2005 via Season of Mist. The follow-up to 2003's "The Nameless Disease" was recorded at Stage One studio with Andy Classen.

SOLEMNITY Parts Ways With Drummer, Announces Replacement

SOLEMNITY Parts Ways With Drummer, Announces Replacement

Germany's SOLEMNITY has parted ways with drummer with Jürgen The Butcher. According to a posting on the group's web site, Jürgen was forced to leave SOLEMNITY "due to serious problems in his private life." The band adds, "We are proud to announce that our long-time friend and professional drummer Harry Reischmann (ex-LIGEIA, MAD MIXX) will record our new stuff together with us."

SOLEMNITY will record its new album, "Lords of the Damned", this summer for a tentative late 2007 release.

SOLEMNITY recently announced the addition of guitarists Robin Fischer (ex-HAGGARD, RED TO GREY) and Frank Pané (ex-VALLEY'S EVE, RED TO GREY, BURN) to the group's ranks.

SOLEMNITY's limited-edition 10-inch vinyl containing a classical version of BATHORY's "One Rode to Asa Bay" backed with a cover of LIZZY BORDEN's "There will be Blood Tonight" was released in January.

SOLEMNITY recorded "One Rode to Asa Bay" with the help of the Bamberg Symphony Orchestra at the Ulmer Münster Cathedral in Ulm, Germany, which is said to be the highest Catholic church on earth. "This was the place to call on the ancient Gods and show Quorthon and all the Ases in Valhalla that they triumphed at last," the band said in a statement. "You will hear the original medieval church organ, string quartets, female and male choirs, timpanis, mouthdrums and things you can't imagine. All LIVE from the Ulmer Münster on 64-tracks!!"

SOLEMNITY's third album, "Shockwave of Steel", was released in 2005. An EP, entitled "Another Bloody Sabbath", followed in April 2006.

Lyrically, in case you did not guess, this one deals with all possible bullshit we have faced during the last couple of years. You got it, wrath falls upon lots of people. Well, let me rephrase this.

THE DILLINGER ESCAPE PLAN: Drum Tracks For New CD Complete

THE DILLINGER ESCAPE PLAN recently entered the studio with producer Steve Evetts (SAVES THE DAY, EARTH CRISIS, SEPULTURA) to begin recording its new album for a late 2007 release. The upcoming CD will feature the drumming of STOLEN BABIES' Gil Sharone following the departure of Chris Pennie (he now plays drums with COHEED AND CAMBRIA).

Commented the band: "Holy shit, Gil is a fucking animal. Seriously, it's ridiculous.

You know when someone is so good at something you can't do anything but laugh? Well, Gil is cracking us up. This guy is a SAVAGE. Drum tones sound monstrous, Steve Evetts is getting sounds Bonzo would rise from the grave for. We can't wait for you all to hear this."

THE ARCANE ORDER: Songwriting Process

THE ARCANE ORDER: Songwriting Process 'Is Running Along Just Smoothly'

THE ARCANE ORDER, the new Danish band featuring vocalist Kasper Thomsen (RAUNCHY) and guitarist Flemming C. Lund (INVOCATOR, ex-AUTUMN LEAVES), has issued the following update:

"The songwriting process for our yet-to-be-titled follow up to 'The Machinery Of Oblivion' is running along just smoothly. So far we have five new songs and more four songs are in the making. We are very happy about the way the first five songs have turned out. We are trying to vary the new stuff a bit more... we have tried to increase speed, we are varying the songs a lot more bpm-wise, and we seem to have found a new approach to writing riffs which make them come out more extreme and original. We will make some really fast songs and at the same time have a few atmospheric 'breathers' as well.

"Morten [Løwe, drums] returned from his NIGHTRAGE stint on their European tour 10 days ago, and later in June Morten will be joining French extreme metal masters SCARVE, temporarily replacing Dirk Verbeuren (SOILWORK) on their two perfomances at Graspop and Hellfest on June 23rd and 24th. After Morten's return we will start rehearsing and intensly prepare for the recordings in September at Jacob Hansen Studios."

THE ARCANE ORDER's debut album, "The Machinery of Oblivion", was released in August 2006 through Metal Blade Records.

THE ARCANE ORDER lineup:

Kasper Thomsen (RAUNCHY) - Vocals
Flemming C. Lund (INVOCATOR, ex-AUTUMN LEAVES) - Rhythm and Lead Guitar
Boris Tandrup (SUBMISSION, SLUGS, ex-AUTUMN LEAVES) - Bass
Morten Løwe Sørensen (SUBMISSION, SLUGS) - Drums

SODOM To Release Re-Recorded Version Of

SODOM To Release Re-Recorded Version Of 'In The Sign Of Evil' With Seven Bonus Tracks

Long-running German thrashers SODOM are in the process of re-recording the material from their classic first EP, "In the Sign of Evil", for a brand new release, tentatively due late summer via SPV Records. The new CD, which will be called "The Final Sign of Evil", will include no less than seven bonus tracks, all of which were originally written during the "In the Sign of Evil" era or earlier but were never officially released. As a special bonus, the album will feature return appearances by the group's original drummer Chris Dudek (a.k.a. Witchhunter) and guitarist Josef "Peppi" Dominic (a.k.a. Grave Violator), both of whom were featured on the original 1984 EP.

"The Final Sign of Evil" is being produced by SODOM's webmaster Toto, who stated about the upcoming CD, "The official name is 'The Final Sign of Evil', and follows the plan to make the 'In the Sign of Evil' a complete album. So the seven additional tracks are not a real bonus, because they fulfill an album, like it should [have done] back in 1984."

Regarding how he got involved on the production side, Toto said, "Peppi heard a demo I produced with a side project which was founded by me back in 2003. A friend of mine (Frank Hübner, he's with me in the project and his neighbour) gave it to him. And after all they decided not to work with Harris [Johns] or Andy [Sneap], they decided to run a little test with me. So in spring 2006 we started a two and a half week pre-production. They were happy with the sound and after four weeks I got the call: You're the one. Of course, that was a dream! In the following month I started to watch nearly every rehearsal, learned the songs and rehearsed with Chris, when Peppi was on holiday. A real big thing for an old mid-Eighties SODOM fan! But believe me: It's real hard work!"

On the subject of how the re-recordings are turning out, Toto said, "Some of the old songs will sound a little bit different, because Chris decided to change some of the drum parts. But don't mind it, because the classic one will stay as a classic, no matter what we're doing. Some will love it, other may hate it, that's the normal way life goes.

"Peppi and me are working on the guitars and it's a hard job for him. The last time he has been in a studio was for the recordings in 1984 for the 'Sign of Evil'. For Chris it was similar. Chris made his last recordings in 1994 for a project called WITCHHUNTER which never been released. But both [have] done their very best. It's obviously that both had a hard [time] during the recordings."

Former And Current MAYHEM Vocalists Record Together

Former And Current MAYHEM Vocalists Record Together

In a move that will surprise many who bought into the rumours that there is no love lost between the two, current MAYHEM vocalist Attila Csihar has joined former MAYHEM vocalist Maniac to record vocals for a track on the debut album from Maniac's new band SKITLIV. Commented Maniac, "Contrary to what a lot of people either say or believe, Attila and I are actually very good friends, and always find rumors about how we are supposed to resent each other quite amusing."

The track, entitled "Amfetamin", also has SHINING's Niklas Kvarforth on guitar. Kvarforth, a close friend of both vocalists, recently joined SKITLIV as recording guitarist. About the track, Maniac said: "'Amfetamin' started life as a pretty disturbing piece of music to begin with. Once Niklas joined in it became even more so, and now that Attila has added his vocals, it's taken on yet another dimension; his voice is used almost as an instrument."

"After some rehearsals, myself [Iscariah] and Kvitrafn will enter studio on this coming Thursday [June 14] to record the debut album of DEAD TO THIS WORLD. We feel very confident about this now and we are sure this will break some necks. DEAD TO THIS WORLD takes no responsibility for any external or internal damage to your values. This is done for us. If any criminal acts like murder, arson, suicide, mass rape, cop killings, priest molestings, child abusings, grave desecrations etc. occurs in your area....then don't even consider holding us responsible. We work with powers beyond our control...fuck you! May our children maybe one day forgive us for what we are about to do..."

DEFTONES Begin Work On New CD

DEFTONES Begin Work On New CD

Gary Graff of Billboard.com reports: The DEFTONES are still rocking their latest album, "Saturday Night Wrist", around the United States. But they've already started work on its successor, too. Frontman Chino Moreno tells Billboard.com that the Sacramento, Calif.-based quintet has set up a backstage writing room where they're creating new material.

"We're going in there and playing as five of us in the room with just our instruments, no other distractions," he explains. "That's how we started out, basically, when we first started the band — us in the garage, no ProTools or anything to get us ahead of ourselves. We'd just play things over and over again, until we remembered it — that's the rawest way you can do it, and the best, I think."

BLACK LABEL SOCIETY's sole release through Roadrunner was last year's "Shot to Hell" album.

"Shot to Hell" sold just under 32,000 copies in the United States during its first week of release last September — less than the 45,000 copies shifted by BLS's "Mafia" (Artemis) back in March 2005 — to land at position No. 21 on The Billboard 200 chart.

THERION Mainman:

THERION Mainman: 'I Have Some Good And Some Sad News About The Classical Show'

THERION mainman Christofer Johnsson has posted the following message on the band's web site:

"I have some good and some sad news about the classical show. The good news is that the orchestra sounds amazing and the choir is also good. We really managed to take the next step from last time by using a younger and flexible orchestra that have an incredible motivation for the project and use in ear monitors for all of them with click track. It worked so well that they even asked to have what we play in their ears and now we play really nicely together. This time we also have clip on microphones for almost all instruments, so the sound will be a million times better. The sad news is that we will not be able to perform 'Adulruna Rediviva' as planned. Our agreed rehearsal time was shrunk from what I originally based my decision to add the song on and the score I sent (weeks ago) was not given to the choir to practice, so it really was too much rehearsal work left on this song in order to pull it off at all and even further to make it sound good. We tried the song, but didn't get further than half and the the choir (who had their notes for it this morning) was simply completely lost. We risked not only to make a bad version of it, but to totally fuck it up, so I had to take the (of course clearly very unpopular) decision to drop the song from the set list in order to ensure the over all quality of the project. Considering that I spent 10-12 hours a day in one week to make a score from this song and adapt it for live playing (including rewriting all keyboard parts for orchestra) it was a total knife in the heart for me. It's my fave THERION song and all the time work for nothing.... not fun at all. On top on this knowing that many fans was looking forward to this song really made it sad. But if we would have tried to do 'Adulruna', it would in best case have been bad and in worst case total disaster, so there was the only one possible responsible decision to make. Especially since we're recording a DVD with this event. Another sad thing is that I earlier dropped 'Flight Of The Lord Of Flies' and the intros to 'Wondrous World Of Punt' and 'Khlysti Evangelist' to free time to make 'Adulruna'. With the time wasted in vain on 'Adulruna' there was no time left to reinsert those pieces. So the the performance will be around 10 minutes shorter than last time because of this. But all in all I am still pleased. We sound excellent and playing-wise it's not one step better than what we achieved in Romania. Not two either, it's even better than that. So it will be a musical experience to remember and will be nice on the DVD that (in time) will be released with this event. Those of you who were there in Romania for the pioneer evening that was and saw how the seed was planted, will now be able to see the flower that has grown up from it."
