D:REI is an exciting journey through rock, metal and psychedelia; the soundtrack to your very own sci-fi epic. The riffs are heavy, inspiring and enduring. The songwriting is classic, the arrangements full of devotion. The two lead vocalists play off each other without seam, interlocking and assuring that the music will lodge in your memory. D:REI is groovy! Sometimes slowly dooming, sometimes oppressively rocking, then irresistibly funky...and suddenly you are dancing around the warp core. And it is all wrapped up in a sound that is natural, transparent, open, yet powerful, and elegant, as it timelessly circumnavigates the retro-trap.”

YES Legend JON ANDERSON's 1976 Solo Debut To Be Reissued On Hybrid Super Audio CD
 Much to the excitement of JON ANDERSON and YES fans worldwide, Audio Fidelty is releasing Jon's critically acclaimed 1976 debut solo album, Olias Of Sunhillow, on a limited numbered edition Hybrid SACD on January 21st.
Jon Anderson's Olias Of Sunhillow was released in the summer of 1976 and is one of his most acclaimed solo works. It's one of five solo albums released by members of YES around that time and one of the most successful of those solo efforts, reaching #8 in the UK charts and breaking into the US Top 50.
“If you go to do a solo album you should be by yourself. That’s what I was thinking. I had all the instruments I was going to use like sitar and drums and things. It came out the other end four months later and for the first time I put ‘musician’ on my passport knowing that I was a musician,” Jon recently told Ultimate Classic Rock.
The music is written and performed almost entirely by Anderson using synthesizers, tape loops, ethnic instruments, sound effects and different voices. Some of the synthesizer sounds ring of those found on contemporary Vangelis pieces with whom Jon had just recorded the year before. He emphasizes his interest in Celtic and Central Asian musical ideas much more here than before and creates a rich, evocative world.
Anderson has stated the album's concept was inspired by Roger Dean's 1972 YES, Fragile cover art as well as works by J.R.R. Tolkien. It's all as detailed and rich as any fantasy novel. It is a progressive rock concept album which tells the story of an alien race and their journey to a new world, an interstellar exodus from Sunhillow on a spaceship designed by the architect, Olias.
Olias glides along seamlessly from one piece to another, showcasing Anderson's uncommon gifts for melody and harmony as well as for songwriting. Together with arrangements that veer from the rustic to sci-fi, the music appears to travel through Earth and Space, incarnating the elements of the material and ethereal worlds. The scope of the music is cinematic, freely pursuing concepts to every corner of its vision and fashioning an experience that is as breathtaking for its range as it is for its depth.
The packaging features a series of artworks by the artist David Fairbrother Roe.
Tracklisting:
'Ocean Song'
'Meeting (Garden Of Geda)'
- Sound Out The Galleon
'Dance Of Ranyart'

EVIL MASQUERADE - New Album The Digital Crucifix Due In The Spring
 Just before Christmas, Tommy Hansen (HELLOWEEN, PRETTY MAIDS, JORN) finalised the mix of Scandinavian band EVIL MASQUERADE's upcoming album The Digital Crucifix.
This is their sixth album due for release via Dark Minstrel Music and it marks a new important chapter of the band, since it introduces Swedish powerhouse singer Tobias Jansson who joined the band last summer.
Guitarist Henrik Flyman spent about a year (between shows and tours) composing the new album. This has now resulted in, what is likely to be considered, their best collection of songs ever, according to a press release. The Digital Crucifix is playful, powerful and sometimes almost aggressive. It has already been described as "IRON MAIDEN on crack" and "ABBA on speed." Add some darkness to that and it’s close to the truth.
As if this wasn't enough, Evil Masquerade are celebrating 10 years as a band, this will be an exciting year!

CRYPTIC SLAUGHTER: Classic Albums To Be Reissued On Vinyl
 Relapse Records has announced the vinyl repressing of two classic albums from the original hardcore thrash merchants CRYPTIC SLAUGHTER.
A seminal act in the '80s crossover movement, CRYPTIC SLAUGHTER effortlessly fused politically charged, punk aggression with lightning-fast thrash metal. Now available on remastered vinyl for the first time ever and on any vinyl format for the first time in over 10 years, the reissues will see an official release on February 18 and are available for pre-order here. A trailer for the reissues can be viewed below.
CRYPTIC SLAUGHTER's 1986 debut, "Convicted", will be repressed on limited edition blood-red vinyl (limited to 500 copies) along with standard gram black vinyl while 1987's "Money Talks" will be reborn on green vinyl (500 copies) and standard gram black wax.
Additionally, both reissues will include digital downloads of the complete remastered albums plus all of the available bonus tracks from the CD reissues.

TYKETTO - Documentally Yours DVD Artwork Revealed
 The TYKETTO DVD Documentally Yours, which walks through the first 25 years of Tyketto will be on sale later this month. Check out the artwork below:
Documentally Yours features a 75-minute documentary, 90-minute live footage from Tyketto's 2011 Worldwide Webcast and much more.
Drummer Michael Clayton Arbeeny recently updated band activities as they gear up to hit the road:
"As with any family, not all members can always make the get togethers. Sadly, Brooke (St. James - guitar) won’t be joining us on the spring run, as he has commitments with fellow Tyketto brother Steve Augeri here in America. After a worldwide search, we struck gold. Joining us on the March/April run will be guitar whiz Chris Green (CJ Snare’s RUBICON CROSS, as well as the all-star lineup of SCRAP METAL). He’s a monster player and a heck of a nice guy, although with he and Ged now in the band, Tyketto is 40% British! Also, without PJ Zitarosa around, I am the lone Italian."
Rounding off Tyketto 2014 is singer Danny Vaughn and bassist Jimi Kennedy.  | 0 |  |

INFAMOUS SINPHONY - Manipulation Reissue Coming Next Month
 Legendary US crossover thrashers INFAMOUS SINPHONY will see their 1989 debut album, Manupulation reissued through Xtreem Music during February. After being silent for almost 20 years, the band reformed with all five former members, self-releasing their third album, Enemies Of The State, last year - and now the band have reached an agreement with Xtreem Music to see their legendary debut reissued.
Manipulation was released by the infamous label Wild Rags back in 1989 and got a great recognition with their raging brand of thrashcore, comparable to bands like CRYPTIC SLAUGHTER, S.O.D., LETHAL AGGRESSION, NUCLEAR ASSAULT and the likes. Now the 16-song album will come out on CD with mastered sound for the first time ever including three bonus tracks taken from their 1990's 4-way split double 12" LP. Booklet will come with lyrics, photos, flyers and liner noter from the band.
The reissue of Manipulation is expected to come out on February 15th.  | 0 |  |

BRUTE FORCZ Mix Metal And Porn In New 'Sex Machine' Video
 Los Angeles metal band BRUTE FORCZ - featuring ex-professional wrestlers Slammer and Jammer - have combined heavy metal music and porn in their first video for the song 'Sex Machine', featuring adult actresses Ava Devine and Missy Martinez.
"It was incredibly HARD to remain focused, we felt like we were in the middle of a porn shoot, which by the way was f-ing awesome," says Slammer. "Working close with Ava, we now know why she is considered a sexual legend in the business. And Missy quite frankly, is beautiful and has the best pair of tits we have ever felt - I mean ever seen. The girls vie for the title of the sex machine, and we still don't know who won the title, but it was a heavyweight battle with two of the absolute sexiest in the business. Someone's going down!"
"The sensor patrol was working overtime during the shoot," states Jammer, "but when the camera was off, things really got nasty. These girls ooze sex from beginning to end, and that help make the video what it is. The video has a really unique twist at the end, so make sure you watch the whole video. It is an old school metal video, like back in the day, with just good loud music and hot, sexy looking women. We will do another video to go with 'Sex Machine' said Jammer, and having Ava and Missy in them, we will definitely keep you a breast when that happens.”
'Sex Machine' can be found on their debut album Out For Blood.
