AVENGED SEVENFOLD Singer On First Show Back: \'We Were All Very, Very Nervous\'
 AVENGED SEVENFOLD performed live for the first time since the death last December of drummer Jimmy "The Rev" Sullivan this past Sunday (July 25), when the band played at the Heavy MTL festival in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. (See video footage of the performance below.) Behind the drum kit was DREAM THEATER's Mike Portnoy, who made his live debut with the group after doing the drum parts on their newly released album, "Nightmare".
AVENGED frontman M. Shadows told The Pulse of Radio what it was like for the band to play live again after their tragedy. "Collectively we were all very, very nervous to get back up there onstage, but there were so many signs that referenced The Rev, you know, just kids with signs that said 'Rest in peace, Rev' and had things written on them," he said. "You know, it was really awesome to see all the kids just so supportive. I mean, kids were just genuinely excited that we were getting back onstage and I think it was a really huge triumph for the band and for them to get us back out there and to feel like we're moving on at this point."
"Nightmare", AVENGED SEVENFOLD's fifth album, arrived in stores on Tuesday (July 27). It follows up the band's self-titled 2007 effort.
The record could debut at No. 1 on next week's Billboard album chart if sales projections are right.
Portnoy is committed to playing on all the group's 2010 tour dates.
AVENGED SEVENFOLD will co-headline this summer's inaugural Uproar Festival tour with DISTURBED and STONE SOUR, beginning on August 17 in Minneapolis.
AVENGED frontman M. Shadows tells The Pulse of Radio some more about playing with Portnoy. "Mike is so full of life," he said. "He's such a great guy. You know, he's the leader of DREAM THEATER, so I think it's fun for him to get to sit back and, like, you know, he just gets to play the drums and not worry about things and he's having a good time with it. And then it's a new adventure for us and, you know, that's what it's gonna be. It's never gonna be the same and we're not trying to make it the same. We're just trying to do the best we can and Mike's doing a hell of a job and we're really excited about that."  | 0 |  |

VIRUS Splits With SEASON OF MIST, Completes Recording New Album
 VIRUS, the Norwegian band featuring Carl-Michael Eide (a.k.a. Czral; VED BUENS ENDE) and Einar "Esso" Sjursø (BEYOND DAWN), has issued the following update:
"VIRUS have parted ways with Season Of Mist and will take care of the release of our third album ourselves. We are just about to start mixing the album and are looking at a late (preferrably November) 2010 release. However, since we no longer have a label contributing to the studio costs (Season Of Mist covered some, but not all, of the studio costs of [2008's] 'The Black Flux'), we have decided to let you, our fans be 'a part' of completing this album.
"As of now, you can pre-order the upcoming album, 'The Agent That Shapes The Desert', on vinyl, CD and as a special 'fan package,' including a CD, a signed and handnumbered LP, a limited EP and a t-shirt.
"We have not set a release date in stone yet, due to the simple fact that it all depends on economy. The more preorders we get, the quicker we will be able to complete and print the album.
"This release will be a co-release between Virulent Music (our own label) and Duplicate Records (Einz' label) which will help with distribution and promotion. This means we basically do everything ourselves, with only some studio support from a few trust funds. We basically have to cover everything else (additional studio time, mastering, printing and promoting the album) ourselves.
"Thus, we hope as many of you will grab this opportunity to become our 'benefactors,' so to speak, and order the CD, the vinyl or the special package.
"Trust us, this is the album of our careers.
"Thanks for your support!"  | +1 |  |

GOTTHARD Singer\'s Guardian Angel
 Vocalist Steve Lee of Swiss hard rockers GOTTHARD has released the following statement:
"I want to inform you that I have been involved in a horrible car crash in Italy on Saturday, August 7 while I was on my way home from a little vacation. A car crashed into us on the motorway near Firenze, and it involved six other cars. As cars were slowing down, the person in the car behind us didn't notice that, and crashed into our car. Despite the accident, I want you all to know that I am OK. I guess I must have a 'rock-loving' guardian angel."
GOTTHARD's latest album, "Need To Believe", was certified platinum in the band's home country for sales in excess of 30,000 copies.

Former STATIC-X Bassist Lines Up New Projects
 Former STATIC-X and current PRONG bassist Tony Campos has posted the following update on his MySpace page:
"Ever since September of last year, when Wayne Static [STATIC-X guitarist/vocalist] told me our partnership was done, I've been busy trying to line up new projects to work on. I'm happy to say, there's a lot of good things on the table.
"Since October of last year, I have been playing bass with PRONG. After two tours with SOULFLY and one tour with FEAR FACTORY, we have been writing new material and hope to record a new album in the next few months. Hopefully, we'll have it out early next year. I've also been working with a local, up-and-coming metal band called ATTIKA 7. We've been doing some local shows around L.A., and will be doing some shows in England next month, as well as four West Coast dates of the Uproar tour.
"Check out the band on Attika7.com.
"The latest thing I've signed on for is to voice a character in a new web comic called Church Of One. My good friend, Tabitha Stevens, will also voice one of the characters as well. It will be featured on DarkBrain.com. Check out the site. There's some really cool shit on there.
"I want to thank all the fans and all my sponsors for their continued support. I look forward to seeing you all out on the road. After a show, you'll usually find me by the bar. Come say what's-up and have a drink with me."

OZZY OSBOURNE Says BLACK SABBATH Reunion Won\'t Happen \'For At Least A Year Or Two\'
 Legendary heavy metal singer Ozzy Osbourne told Kevin O'Hare of The Republican that he is considering reuniting with the other members of BLACK SABBATH's original lineup to record a brand new studio album. However, "It's not going to happen for at least a year or two because I've got my tour and an album to do," Ozzy said. "But it's not added to the realms of never ever."
He continued, "I would be a liar if I said to you I wouldn't want to do the ultimate BLACK SABBATH album...
"We never set down when we were kids and went like, 'This is going to be looked upon when we're (expletive) 60 as a milestone in music.' That was not our intention. But it kind of happened.
"I always wanted to be a Beatle and people said, 'Well, BLACK SABBATH is a heavy metal version of THE BEATLES.'
"But I would love to do, absolutely love to do a really great monumental BLACK SABBATH album. Whether we can, I don't know.
"I spoke to Tony Iommi [SABBATH guitarist] about three weeks ago, I spoke to Geezer [Butler, SABBATH bassist] about a week ago, I speak to Bill Ward [SABBATH drummer] all the time. But I won't do it without the other three...
"BLACK SABBATH is four guys as far as I'm concerned. We all depend on each other."

LORDI Mainman Discusses \'This Is Heavy Metal\' Single
 Finnish heavy metal monsters LORDI have just released the first single from their upcoming fifth studio album, "Babez For Breakfast". "This Is Heavy Metal" is available for just .69¢ through all digital providers, including The Omega Order, and features cover art created by LORDI mainman Mr. Lordi.
"I wanted to paint a picture which at the same time crystallizes something of the essence that is of '80s metal and also as pays a visual tribute to many of our own idols of that era," commented Mr. Lordi. "So, to be able to fit them all in, I created a Frankenstein monster made out of bits and pieces of members of TWISTED SISTER, KISS, W.A.S.P. and ALICE COOPER, to name only a few."
He continued, "The song itself is written in the same train of thought and appreciation. I wanted to write a song that is heavy metal according to LORDI. The riff should sound familiar from the first second you hear it and you should be able to sing along the chorus already when it comes out the second time.
"Most of our favorite bands come from the U.S., with only few exceptions.
"Someone once said that LORDI must be the most American band in Finland. I think that is quite correct.
"The whole concept of our band, both musically and visually, is heavily influenced by American pop culture, comics, horror films and music."

HAIL OF BULLETS Frontman Discusses New Album Concept
 HAIL OF BULLETS — the Dutch death metal band featuring GOREFEST drummer Ed Warby, THANATOS guitarists Stephan Gebédi and Paul Baayens, former PESTILENCE/ASPHYX singer Martin Van Drunen and former HOUWITSER bass player Theo van Eekelen — has set "On Divine Winds" as the title of its second full-length album, due in North America on October 12 via Metal Blade Records (one day earlier internationally). The group recorded 11 songs plus an intro for the CD, which, like its predecessor, was produced by Ed Warby was mixed by Swedish producer/multi-instrumentalist Dan Swanö (EDGE OF SANITY, BLOODBATH, NIGHTINGALE).
HAIL OF BULLETS' debut album "…Of Frost And War" was a concept album about the Eastern front war of Germany. "On Divine Winds" is another concept effort, this time covering the Pacific battles between Japan and the USA.
Comments Van Drunen: "This time HAIL OF BULLETS takes on the Pacific War. The expansion of the Empire of Japan throughout Asia, introducing a full scale war using all forces combined. The massive strike back of the Americans, whose marines bravely fought many tough and bloody battles on now forgotten insulate islands spread throughout the whole Pacific. This led to desperate Japanese defense tactics such as Kamikaze, human bullets and suicidal Banzai charges. Until, finally, incendiary bombings brought the empire to its knees."
The album title "On Divine Winds" is a translation of the Japanese word "kamikaze," as kami stands for "God" and kaze means "wind."  | 0 |  |

BLACK \'N BLUE, LOVE/HATE, Ex-RATT Members Join Forces In HARDROCK ALLSTARS
 Jaime St. James (BLACK 'N BLUE), Juan Croucier (ex-RATT), Jon E. Love (LOVE/HATE) and Pete Holmes (BLACK 'N BLUE) have joined forces in a new "supergroup" called the HARDROCK ALLSTARS. According to a press release, the band "plays a refreshing mix of hard rock, pop and metal from the '70s and '80s. They have paid meticulous attention to the detail of the songs, and have a 'take-no-prisoners' attitude to their live performances."
"We have taken our time in selecting classic hard rock songs that have not been over played by other bands and also mixed in some of the biggest hits from our personal bands; current and past," Croucier says. "This is an authentic lineup of seasoned veterans, the kind of band that you would have seen in the early '80s playing the Hollywood clubs of the day and we perform on stage like everything depends on it."
HARDROCK ALLSTARS made its live debut at Club Vodka's eight-year celebration at the Key Club in Hollywood, California. "This being our first time on stage, from my point of view, we tore the roof off the place," St. James says. "If this is any indication of what's to come, get ready for an ass-kicking."  | 0 |  |

VIRGIN STEELE: New Album Details Revealed
 U.S. metallers VIRGIN STEELE will release their new album, "The Black Light Bacchanalia", via SPV/Steamhammer on the following dates:
Germany, Austria, Switzerland: October 22
Rest of Europe: October 25
USA, Canada: November 9
The effort will be made available as limited-edition digipak, standard CD, double gatefold vinyl and as a digital download.
Songtitles set to appear on the CD include:
* By The Hammer Of Zeus
* Pagan Heart
* The Bread Of Wickedness
* The Orpheus Taboo
* In A Dream Of Fire
* Nepenthe
* Necropolis (He Answers Them With Death)
* To Crown Them With Halos Parts 1 & 2
* The Tortures Of The Damned
* The Black Light Bacchanalia (The Age That Is To Come)
* Eternal Regret
Commented vocalist David DeFeis: "It will be a long album... close to 80 minutes. The album (to be really brief) concerns the reversal of all things. Once conquered by invading cultures, older Pagan deities become the demons f the new religion. The Black Light Bacchanalia is a reversal of the sacred sexual customs, and the final desecration of the 'Goddess Principle,' switching from matrilineal descent to patrilineal descent, with the rise of the idea of the Mountain-Fire God.... And it also has to do with ancient fears such as the fear of the sun not rising...Lyrically it is a kind of continuation of the story I told on the last album...Musically it is quite something else...”

ARMORED SAINT: \'Left Hook From Right Field\' Video Released
 "Left Hook From Right Field", the new video from veteran Los Angeles metallers ARMORED SAINT, can be viewed below. The clip was filmed on July 1 in the band's hometown with director Jeremy Schott of Mental Suplex.
Commented ARMORED SAINT vocalist John Bush: "BAD-ASS!!! That's how I would describe this video. The photography is absolutely beautiful. Rene, the boxer, did a nobleman's job and is convincing as hell.
"Jeremy's team was awesome to work with and super-efficient. ARMORED SAINT was captured raw and with full power.
"Sometimes making a video, actually the majority of the time, making a video blows. Not this time!"
Added bassist Joey Vera; "The video came out great and does justice to the song. We were going for a 'Raging Bull' look and I think we captured the vibe, for sure.
"Most videos are pretty boring to make but this one was actually fun. We spent some time shooting scenes 'on the fly' and tried things out that were not in the story line, meaning we had a chance to improvise.
"The story line is a pretty good representation on the allegories that the lyrics paint.
"Good fun, once again."
"Left Hook From Right Field" comes off ARMORED SAINT's latest album, "La Raza", which sold around 2,000 copies in the United States in its first week of release. The CD landed at position No. 18 on the Top New Artist Albums (Heatseekers) chart, which lists the best-selling albums by new and developing artists, defined as those who have never appeared in the Top 100 of The Billboard 200. "La Raza" also entered the German Media Control chart at No. 96 and the Canadian Independent chart at No. 85.

Special guests Eric Peterson (TESTAMENT, DRAGONLORD) and Brad Gillis (NIGHT RANGER, OZZY OSBOURNE) will handle the insane guitar solos along with Geoff and VICIOUS RUMORS' other guitarist, Kiyoshi Morgan.
VICIOUS RUMORS' current lineup is completed by drummer Larry Howe, bassist Stephen Goodwin and the group's latest addition, vocalist Brian Allen (LAST EMPIRE, MALICE, WILD DOGS).
