MELIAH RAGE Frontman Returns From His Mission In Haiti
 This past November, MELIAH RAGE frontman Mike Munro — a deeply faithful Christian — applied his carpentry skills, along with a team of 20, in Haiti for eight days to build a second floor on a school house in St. Michel. The school serves 450 children in the area and there is also an orphanage housing 29 children on the site.
Monadnock Bible Conference Center has a program reaching out to Haiti with short-term mission trips 8-10 times per year (both teams of builders as well as medical personnel).
More pictures from the trip can be found at this location.
MELIAH RAGE recently spent time in the studio putting the finishing touches on a remix of the 2004 record "Barely Human". Overseen by Ted Ostrander at Red Devil Studio in Stoughton, Masschusetts, the new version of the LP will include one freshly recorded bonus track — a cover version of the ALICE COOPER song "Halo of Flies" recorded by producer Pete Rutcho. This is the first cover song MELIAH RAGE has ever done.

More Video Footage From \'Bonzo: The Groove Remains The Same\' Available
 More video footage from the "Bonzo: The Groove Remains The Same: A Double Encore!" event on Wednesday, January 12 at the Key Club in West Hollywood, California and on Thursday, January 13 at the Galaxy Theater in Anaheim, California can be viewed below.
Due to the overwhelming success and positive feedback from the audience and drummers at the first "Bonzo: The Groove Remains The Same" John Bonham tribute show on September 25, 2010, Brian Tichy and Joe Sutton agreed to look into doing it again. The problem was Tichy would be on tour this year with WHITESNAKE for most of 2011 into 2012. The only way to go for it again was to have the show sooner than later. And while looking into this, two back-to-back dates came up! The drummers all agreed two shows are better than one. Most of the drummers are back as well.
Musicians performing over the two nights included:
* Carmine Appice (VANILLA FUDGE, ROD STEWART, OZZY OSBOURNE)
* Vinny Appice (BLACK SABBATH, DIO, HEAVEN & HELL)
* Kenny Aronoff (JOHN COUGAR, SMASHING PUMPKINS)
* Frankie Banali (QUIET RIOT)
* Charlie Benante (ANTHRAX) **
* Bobby Blotzer (RATT)

* Dave Lombardo (SLAYER)
* Khurt Maier (SALTY DOG)
* Samantha Maloney (HOLE, MÖTLEY CRÜE)
* Jojo Mayer **
* Xavier Muriel (BUCKCHERRY) **
* Stephen Perkins (JANE'S ADDICTION) *
* Chris Slade (AC/DC, THE FIRM)
* Chad Smith (RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS, CHICKENFOOT)

LEAVES\' EYES: New Album Title, Artwork Unveiled
 LEAVES' EYES — the German/Norwegian band formed by ex-THEATRE OF TRAGEDY singer Liv Kristine Espenaes Krull and members of ATROCITY — has set "Meredead" as the title of its new album, due on April 22 in Germany, Austria and Switzerland. Release dates for other territories will be announced soon. Producer/co-vocalist Alexander Krull is currently overseeing the CD's final mix at Mastersound Studio. The album's artwork was created by Stefan Heilemann.
Commented Kristine: "As we began composing the first song ideas for our fourth full-length album, all of us were very eager to take another step in strengthening both the individual sound and concept of LEAVES' EYES, like we have done album by album. Along with the songwriting process, I made up my mind about the songs' themes, and drowned myself in different sources of literature. Some songs clearly needed lyrics rooted in northern history and culture, as well as having mystical themes.
"Being an Old-English fan, I decided to write some of the lyrics in Old-English, which, of course, included further studies of grammatical and phonetic knowledge, which I really enjoyed doing.
"Next to modern English and Old English, some songs are sung in traditional Norwegian, to keep their strong individuality and focus on certain themes from special genres in Norwegian traditional singing.
"The album is given the title 'Meredead', as one of the songs on the album. It is my own word creation (at least I haven't found it in a dictionary yet), and it may mean both 'dead by/in the sea,' or 'the mortal or killing sea.'
"In my lyrics, you will find traditional themes from Viking literature and Norwegian song tradition, moreover, tales from the Irish isles, some from already existing sources, some made up myself. Sometimes you will hear about men going on adventures, some ending up drowning in the sea, their wives, evil witches, three-headed trolls, or spell-bound princesses, as well as marble halls and blood-thirsty creatures.
"I allowed myself more freedom for the concept of 'Meredead', telling a number of different stories, real, mystical or sometimes maybe even both."
LEAVES' EYES recently parted ways with bassist Alla Fedynitch "for personal reasons." The group played the last show of 2010 — at the Metal Female Voices Fest on October 24 in Wieze, Belgium — with Dutch session bassist J.B. van der Wal (ABORTED, DR. DOOM).

WAVES UNDER WATER - Infos zum neuen Album \'All Of Your Light\'!
 Die schwedischen Darkwavekünstler im Steampunkoutfit haben gerade mal ein Jahr nach ihrem vielgefeierten Debut mit hohen DAC Notierungen nachgelegt und beweisen auf "All Of Your Light" ihre Entwicklungsfähigkeit. "Tomorrow" ist neben "Red Red Star" ein vierversprechender Tanzflächenaspirant.
Kein Wunder, das die Band direkt von Unheilig für deren Abschlusskonzert gemeinsam mit VNV Nation, Apoptygma Berzerk und Diary of Dreams in Düsseldorfs Phillipshalle gebucht wurde. Der Bandname der zum Quartett angewachsenen Gruppe findet in den traumhaft produzierten Klangschlösser seine buchstäbliche Entsprechung.
Elektronische Darkwaveperlen oszillieren zwischen Gothicfeeling und Synthpop und findet mit der elegisch, tragenden Stimme von Angelica einen perfekten Konterpart. Das Artwork aus der Feder des Klangbastlers Johan rundet virtuos die stilbildende Kreation der Skandinavier ab. Ein wundervolles Geschenk für kalte Winterabende an alle synthetischen Träumer. "All Of Your Light" erscheint am 18. Februar 2011 bei Danse Macabre.

RUDRA: New Album's Song Titles
 This message was posted on RUDRA MySpace page:
"Salutations,
The release date for the final chapter to the Brahmavidya trilogy entitled 'Brahmavidya: Immortal I' will be announced within a week. Here a preview of the Song titles:
Now, Therefore……
Illusory Enlightenment
Ravenous Theories of Deception
Vultures of Slavery
Incredulous Void
Sinister Devotion
Harrowing Carrions of Syllogism
Embryonic Theologies
Supposed Sages of Sensuality
Hymns of the Immortal Self
Advaita Samrajya".
"RUDRA shall be going independent.
It has become almost impossible for any medium or big record labels to have us on their roster. CD sales are dipping and illegal downloads are rising. It is the smaller bands like us who suffer the blow. And the record labels too. So the only logical step for us to move forward is to go independent".  | 0 |  |

04. Euclidean Elements
05. Prismal Dawn

"Omnivium" was recorded at Woodshed Studio in southern Germany with engineer V. Santura (TRIPTYKON, DARK FORTRESS). The album is based on Friedrich Schelling's "On Nature's Connection to the Spirit World".
Commented drummer Hannes Grossman: "The recording process was intense and time-consuming, but it brought us many steps forward as musicians both individually and collectively.
"The songs are still catchy, but there are more epic parts involved, as well as faster and more melodic songs. The extremes of the band's sound extend on all sides, so to say. Expect some things which have never been done before like this in death metal!"

LEVIATHAN Mainman Accused Of Assaulting Girlfriend
 According to the Chicago Tribune, renowned tattoo artist Jef Whitehead — also known as Wrest of the Californian black metal band LEVIATHAN — was charged with criminal sexual assault and aggravated domestic battery Sunday and held on $350,000 bond after allegedly attacking his girlfriend in Chicago, Illinois.
"I've never known him to be violent to anyone — male or female," Freddy Corbin — owner of Temple Tattoo in Oakland, California, where Whitehead has worked for three years — said of Jef, whom he has known for more than 20 years.
For the last three or four months, Whitehead has been traveling throughout the United States and parts of Europe on a tattooing tour, Corbin told the Chicago Tribune. Most recently, Whitehead has been in Chicago and given tattoos as a guest artist at Taylor Street Tattoo & Body Piercing, said Keith Underwood, the studio's owner.
