ALL ENDS Signs With NUCLEAR BLAST RECORDS
 Swedish hard rock band ALL ENDS has inked a deal with Nuclear Blast Records for the release of its sophomore album, "A Road To Depression". The CD marks the recording debut of the group's new singer, Jonna Sailon, who replaced Emma Gelotte (sister of IN FLAMES guitarist Björn Gelotte) in March 2009.
Commented the band: "We're glad we finally found a label with global potential who can give ALL ENDS what we aimed for the last years and that is to be a band of international heights.
"We are proud to be a part of Nuclear Blast, with its team and their impressive current roster.
"Our new album, 'A Road To Depression', is far the best stuff we have ever produced and we've become a new band in all sense of the word. Looking for greater success and no less than world domination is the goal."
ALL ENDS's forthcoming album was produced by Roberto Laghi, who is said to be one of the most successful engineers and producers in Sweden (having worked on recordings that have collectively sold more than two million copies). He has recorded, mixed and produced such artists as IN FLAMES, MUSTASCH, HARDCORE SUPERSTAR and DIA PSALMA and has mixed the latest album from SONIC SYNDICATE. He primarily works out of IF (In Flames) Studios in Gothenburg, Sweden.

AEROSMITH Singer Has 12 Songs Ready For New Solo Record
 AEROSMITH singer Steven Tyler spoke with Nekesa Mumbi Moody from AP recently about a number of topics. A few excerpts from the chat follow:
AP: What has it been like to play with the band after the tumultuous last year?
Tyler: It's been a great tour. You know it's a little hard for me. Being in Aerosmith is like living on the tail of a comet. I've had a lot of injuries over the last couple of the years. I had ACL reconstruction on my knee ... operations on my feet, my mom passed away. A lot of things came to play that made it easy for me to abuse some things. ... Even though some of the people in the band were going public with some of the stuff which turned very ugly, I managed to pull it all back together again and say, 'Look, let's just get out there and be the band that we know we are and not argue about this crap anymore.'"
AP: How easy was that after the ugliness?
Tyler: "I realize that certain people that decide to go in the press with dirty laundry, I just have to look the other way and realize I need to keep my side of the street clean, and they do what they do. It's really unfortunate that certain people were Twittering and going to the press. It got really ugly, but you know, again, I just went back to them and I said ... "More than anything, I really want to play with this band. I really love this band and I love who I've become because of the band." ... Everyone's got their problems and their demons, but when we get onstage and play as five, that really all goes away, and that's really all I look at now."
AP: Is a new Aerosmith album coming?
Tyler: "The truth is I've never stopped writing. I've got 12 songs I'm sitting on right now for a solo record. Aerosmith has to finish a studio album; we're gonna do that first."

DEVILDRIVER\'s New Album To Be Mixed By ANDY SNEAP
 Santa Barbara, California metallers DEVILDRIVER recently finished recording their fifth album at Sonic Ranch studios in Tornillo, Texas for a tentative early 2011 release through Roadrunner Records. According to drummer John Boecklin, acclaimed British producer Andy Sneap (MEGADETH, EXODUS, MACHINE HEAD, NEVERMORE, ARCH ENEMY) will mix the effort in late July at Andy's Backstage studio in Derbyshire, England.
Regarding the new album's musical direction, Boecklin stated, "It's interesting to me — it's not the fastest shit we have done, nor the slowest, [but it] just [has] lots of groove. But to me, when people say 'it's got groove,' I think it's a nice way of saying simple and boring these days. We wanted to avoid this.
"Our record has a great contrast of dark riffs, stomp bouncing drums with the right amount of blasts and double bass, and outstanding vocal delivery from Dez [Fafara] that takes it past your average approach of the metal attempt. I'm not talking about reinventing the wheel or nothing. I just think our new album sits in its own corner from any of our other albums."

MY RUIN And ANA KEFR Frontman Cover Rap Classic \'Natural Born Killaz\' As DEATH WORK PROFESSIONALS
 MY RUIN and ANA KEFR frontman Rhiis D. Lopez recently covered the rap classic 'Natural Born Killaz' under the moniker DEATH WORK PROFESSIONALS. Video footage is available below, the track is available for free download at this location.
Following is My Ruin vocalist Tairrie B. Murphy's account of how the cover came about, reaching back to her early days as a rap artist:
"Hello Everyone!
I wanted to check in and let you know what we've been up to. In the next few weeks you will be seeing more dates announced on our page as we get ready behind the scenes for our album release and tour in September. In the meantime, we’ve been doing all sorts of interesting things which brings us to this post today!
Last week Mick (Murphy) and I went into the studio with our friends Rhiis Lopez of the band ANA KEFR and Josh Lynch [who co-produced My Ruin’s upcoming album]. As most of you know, I started my music career back in 1989 as a rap artist on Eazy E’s Ruthless/Comptown Records label. Well, I may have traded one style of vocals for another over the years but I’ve always had a special place in my heart for the fine art of rapping. I have to admit that it’s been a long time since I rocked a serious rhyme on a record and I’m not really a fan of anything rap related getting radio or video play today but I am and will always be a fan of the true hip hop classics and old school gangster rap.
Over the years a few closed minded people in the rock world have felt the need to bring up my past and talk a little sh!t about what I used to do or try to disrespect me by calling me a bandwagon jumper for switching my musical genre from hip hop to metal but the truth is, metal just spoke to me on a deeper level and allowed me to do things with my voice that I couldn’t do as a rap artist. Metal helped develop me both as a lyricist and a vocalist and over time gave me a different kind of confidence on the microphone and on stage. I came from the NWA camp. I wasn’t hanging out with the likes of Vanilla Ice. I was on a label with the SLAYER of rap. They always came hard and controversial dressed in black and never flashy, just skilled in their delivery over hardcore beats and samples that sounded doomy and sick as opposed to the type of watered down, auto-tuned, lightweight, commercialized crap that's on the radio today. I can't relate to any of it or any of the rappers I see.
I taught myself how to rap the same way I taught myself how to scream – by watching some of the guys I admired like Phil Anselmo & Henry Rollins because there were no women doing guttural howls when I started my first band and no one I could relate to but a few good men to inspire me including Ice T who formed BODY COUNT and stepped out of the rap world and into metal for a moment. I like to think that over the years of recording and releasing albums dating back to my days in MANHOLE to present day in My Ruin I can proudly say that my style is all my own and I own it. I also own the fact that a small part of me will always be a rapper and while I suppose that might be a little weird for a chick in metal to admit, I’m not ashamed to say it. I’ve never tried to hide my past, who I am or where I came from. Why would I? I know there are plenty of metal *purists* who might object to hearing this and that’s understandable but many artists have different sides to themselves and that is the true beauty of being an artist – having the ability to create and experiment musically instead of limiting yourself. Someone posted me a short but profound comment when I shared this video and a few words about our new side project on our Facebook pages Friday. It said – 'First rule of engagement, never ask permission. Just appear.' What a great quote. I suppose that’s how I’ve always felt when it comes to my music and my art. I’ve never asked permission and I’ve never apologized.
I asked Rhiis, Mick and Josh to record this cover with me to see what it would be like to rock a rhyme after so many years spent screaming and doing spoken word recordings. We all really dig the original track but obviously there were certain things we couldn’t say, so Rhiis and I decided to change it up a bit to fit who we are individually and bring the track up to date and relevant to 2010 lyrically while Josh reproduced and added his flavor to the music and Mick laid some live guitar and bass on it. Mick also put together this cool little studio video of us recording it so we could share it with you. Who knows if we’ll record anything else like this in the future but if we decide to it would most likely be an original or two however, don’t worry friends, My Ruin is not turning into a rap band. That would never happen. We love what we do too much. Side projects are simply good for the creative soul, not to mention fun as hell and this was something we had a great time doing as we get ready for the release of our new album Ghosts and Good Stories which is due out in August on Tiefdruck-Musik.
We hope you guys enjoy the track and the video and since we have gotten such an amazing response on our Facebook pages when we posted this on Friday and so many people asking us to make it available so we have a set up a special page online where you can download it for free and share it with your friends so if you dig it, click the photo at the top of the page and go get it! So on that note: Ladies and gentlemen, I give you DEATH WORK PROFESSIONALS and our cover of the rap classic ‘Natural Born Killaz’ for your listening pleasure."

VADER To Perform Entire De Profundis Album On Upcoming Poland Tour, New Album Planned For Summer 2011
 VADER have announced a special tour for their native Poland, going under the banner Głosy z Otchłani (De Profundis 1995- 2010). It will be the band's last Polish tour for 2010 and will feature a special set. Frontman Peter Wiwczarek checks in:
"Playing such a special tour, consisted mostly of some places passed over during the latest Blitzkrieg campaign, I would like to give it some kind of a special rank. So, to make the upcoming tour even more unique, in connection with the 15th anniversary of Vader's classic record, we are going to play the entire De Profundis album as a part of our standard live set. Hopefully Vader's fans will enjoy the idea and we will be able to repeat it during some band's future tours:
August
20.08.2010 (POL) Gdynia / Ucho
21.08.2010 (POL) Koszalin / Generacja 2010
22.08.2010 (POL) Kutno / Pub 73
24.08.2010 (POL) Ostrów Wlkp. / Afera
25.08.2010 (POL) Legnica / Spiżarnia
26.08.2010 (POL) Gliwice / Rock'a Music Club
27.08.2010 (POL) Skarżysko Kamienna / Semafor
28.08.2010 (POL) Iława / Fama Rock Festival
Recently we appeared on several really successful tours, such as Unholy Titans featuring also DEICIDE and MARDUK, and Blitzkrieg in the East! This year we have already played over 100 shows. More will come really soon! In July Vader will play on a three big festivals: RockHarz in Germany (09.07), Gateway in Sweden (10.07) and W?gorzewo Festival in Poland (11.07.) At the end of September we shall embark on another tour in the U.S. this time together with our colleagues from IMMOLATION. Vader will appear on the tour as a co-headliner, so you should expect band's complete, at least one hour live performance. On 30.12.2010 Vader will appear on a show in Switzerland, sharing the stage with KRISIUN, VITAL REMAINS and ROTTING CHRIST. I can also reveal some details of the next studio album. It's tentatively called Return To The Morbid Reich and will be recorded in March / April 2011 at Hertz Studio. World premiere through Nuclear Blast is scheduled around August / September. And now .... a well deserved holiday! See you in August \ m / "

In a recent interview with PopEater.com, Michaels stated about the upcoming CD, "For me, there's so many different songs I want people to hear ... I'm excited about the rootsy version of 'Every Rose Has Its Thorn', the new stuff. The theme song to my show is called 'Riding Against the Wind' ... and a cover of SUBLIME's 'What I Got'. That's one of my favorite songs; it just puts me in a great mood. I love hearing that song, so I busted it out live, and I thought I did a really respectful version of it. I wanted to keep some of what the song is, but I added some of my own lyrics and a cool breakdown to it. We played it live and it went over insane. It's been one of my favorite songs since the early '90s."
Michaels' new reality show, "Bret Michaels: Life As I Know It", is planned for the fall. Footage was shot on May 28 at a show in Biloxi, Mississippi for the first episode.
Michaels made it to last month's live finale and won the title of "The Celebrity Apprentice", beating out actress Holly Robinson Peete.
Michaels, who was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes when he was six years old, flew from Los Angeles to New York to attend the NBC show.
