MIKAEL ÅKERFELDT Says OPETH\'s Contribution To \'God Of War\' Soundtrack Is \'Very Odd\'
 Guitarist/vocalist Mikael Åkerfeldt of Swedish progressive metallers OPETH has issued the following update:
"I just finished and approved the mastering of a new song I wrote called 'The Throat Of Winter'. I wrote it for that game 'God Of War' that we're supposed to be included in, or however that works.
"Is it a digital album? I don't know how that shit works, but it's done anyways. Hell, I'm still with my turntables (got three of them) and right now I'm playing a Aussie original of 'High Voltage' by AC/DC.
"[The] song is very odd. It's good, I think, or for my taste it is, but even I can understand it's very... odd! [I] produced and recorded it from scratch and I'm happy with the sound, if I may say so myself. Fred [Fredrik Åkesson, OPETH guitarist] laid down a killer acoustic solo and Per [Wiberg, OPETH keyboardist] laid down an amazing twiddly tweet moog solo.
"It's not a very metal song, I'm saving up for that… later... yet it's got a metal mentality, or what I remember metal used to do to me. I can feel it, even though it's not a metal song per definition.
"Anyways, if you hear it I hope you like it.
"Me and Fred went to NAMM for a few days and it was fun fun FUN! Did some signing session and a [question-and-answer session] for PRS guitars.
"My signature guitar looked and felt amazing! Loved the neck of it! It was only a prototype so some adjustments will be made, but overall I'm fucking blown away by it. Fred liked it too very much and it seemed to attrack a lot of interest!
"The PRS people were real nice to us, as always, and I got to meet some nice people I hadn't met before. We might have had a few drinks too many but we had to do something to cope with the jetlag which was overwhelming.
"Looks like we might be going to the Frankfurt Musikmesse as well, right before those anniversary shows we're doing in March/April.
"OK, people...I'm off again. Even though we're off the road I feel busier than ever. I'm hyper and I've got a billion projects in the air it feels like..."

Artwork From MONSTROSITY Vocalist To Be Used In Hollywood Movie
 An assortment of death metal poster artwork from MONSTROSITY vocalist and album cover illustrator Mike Hrubovcak will be used as background set dressing for a location in the upcoming film "Dream House", a psychological, supernatural thriller that is currently in production and slated for a 2011 release.
Directed by Jim Sheridan ("In America", "The Boxer"), "Dream House" is a Universal Pictures / Morgan Creek feature film starring Daniel Craig (James Bond 007 in "Casino Royale") and Naomi Watts ("King Kong", "The Ring") .
Among some of Hrubovcak's artwork that will be used in the film are designs for the bands DECREPIT BIRTH, SINISTER, BRAIN DRILL, RUMPELSTILTSKIN GRINDER, ABRAXAS, AURORA BOREALIS, TENDERIZER, POLTERCHRIST, AZURE EMOTE, Party.San Festival and many others.

Daniel Craig is set to play a successful publishing executive who quits his job in New York City to relocate his family and two daughters to a beautiful house in a small New England town. They soon learn their home was once the murder scene of a mother and her children, believed to be at the hands of the husband who survived.

AC/DC\'s BRIAN JOHNSON Talks About Anniversary Of BON SCOTT\'s Death
 According to Voxy.co.nz, Tracey Donaldson of the New Zealand rock radio station The Rock spoke to AC/DC frontman Brian Johnson in a 15-minute interview that covered the band's current tour, their long history together, and the 30th anniversary (February 19, 1980) of the death of former lead singer Bon Scott.
When asked by Donaldson how the band will mark the anniversary this month, Johnson responded, "We're trying to think of something to do that's not morbid. We hate it when people try to use the anniversary as a sensation seeking thing, so we want it to be respectful. His two nephews and his brother will be in Perth, and we'll see his mum. I'm sure the fans will be out in force with Bon paraphernalia and we welcome that because he's still a part of the band, he's still a part of us."
Johnson also touched on the cancer scare that plagued him earlier in the "Black Ice" tour and resulted in the cancellation of a few concerts. "I found out I had Barrett's Syndrome and the next step is cancer of the esophagus, then they have to take the voice box out, which stopped me right in my tracks," he said. "I was very lucky we caught it in time. A lot of people think it's heartburn but I knew there was something really hurting me so I went straight to the top doctor. I was the most scared I've ever been in my life — I didn't sleep for a week."

(HED) P.E. - Neues Album und Wien-Gig!
 “For years I have been told to tune down my lyrics. But great art is supposed to push boundaries. That is what makes people take notice and question things. Provocative and thought provoking art leads to dialogue. And dialogue leads to answers. And that is what we all want isn’t it? Answers.”
Meint Jared Shane, Sänger und Aushängeschild von (hed)p.e., zum bärenstarken Comeback-Album “New World Orphans (NWO)”.
Mitte der Neunziger stürmten die kalifornischen Crossover-Pioniere weltweit die Charts, verbanden geschickt Hardcore, Punk, HipHop und Metal zu einem wunderbaren großen ganzen – und hatten dabei auch noch jede Menge zu sagen.
Dies tun sie jetzt wieder – siehe oben – auf ihrem neuem Werk, welches verdammt heavy, rotzig, wütend durch die Boxen drängt. Und dabei aber auch keine Angst vor großen Melodien und Ohrwurm-Refrains zeigt. Wie u.a. die Single "Renegade" beweist:
Suburban Noize Records wird “New World Orphans (NWO)” veröffentlichen und zwar am 5. März 2010, die üppige Trackliste liest sich wie folgt:
1. New World Order (Intro)
2. Live or Die Free
3. Bloodfire
4. Ordo (AB Chao)
5. Stay Ready
6. Family
7. Stepping Stone
8. Renegade
9. Everything All the Time
10. Mortgage Crisis (Intro)
11. Middle Class Blues
12. Flesh and Blood
13. Nibiru (Intro)
14. Planet X
15. Higher Ground
16. Soldiers (Intro)
17. Tow the Line
18. Self Aware
19. Lost History (Intro)
20. This Love
21. Work on This [*]
22. Babylon Fall [*]
23. Bucky Lasek [*][Demo Version]
24. Don't F*** with Us [*][Demo Version] | 0 | |

OOMPH! - englisches Album im Februar 2010
 OOMPH! are set to surprise fans all over the world with an english speaking "Best Of" album due February 26th (as for Germany, Switzerland and Austria) and March 1st (applying to other territories).
For more than 20 years and throughout ten albums, the trio succeeded in many markets in their very native tongue, it now was about time for Dero, Crap and Flux to produce an English sung record!
The Braunschweig / Germany based three-piece re-arranged their greatest hits for this very purpose. As always with OOMPH!, the album is a well-working mixture out of the various styles. Be it Metal, EBM or again, Gothic, Flux, Crap and Dero always perform with virtuosity, yet intangibly in between the genres.

RAMMSTEIN To Release \'Banned\' Second Single
 German industrial metallers RAMMSTEIN will release a new single in the U.S. on February 9 entitled "Ich Tu Dir Weh" exclusively through iTunes. The follow-up single to the controversial "Pussy" single/video, "Ich Tu Dir Weh" is taken from the Berlin-based band's critically acclaimed sixth studio album, "Liebe Ist Für Alle Da".
The "Ich Tu Dir Weh" single bundle will include four remix bonus tracks and a digital booklet. The entire bundle is $4.99 and the songs will also be available for individual purchase.

"Liebe Ist Für Alle Da" arrived in stores on October 20 through a marketing and distribution arrangement with Vagrant Records and Universal Music Germany. The album was produced by Jacob Hellner and RAMMSTEIN, with recording done at Northern California's Sonoma Mountain Studio. In the U.S. the album entered the Billboard chart at No. 13 — the highest chart entry for the band in the United States ever.
"Ich Tu Dir Weh" track listing:

METALLICA Is \'Profoundly Saddened By Discovery Of MORGAN DANA HARRINGTON\'s Body\'
 METALLICA has issued the following statement regarding the news that human remains discovered Tuesday, January 26 on a southern Albermarle County, Virginia, farm are confirmed to be those of missing Virginia Tech student Morgan Harrington, 20, of Roanoke County, who disappeared from the band's October 17, 2009 concert in Charlottesville, Virgnia:
"We are profoundly saddened by the news of the discovery of Morgan Dana Harrington's body .
"Our most sincere condolences go out to the family and friends of Morgan Dana Harrington, the 20-year-old Virginia Tech student who was last seen while attending our concert at the John Paul Jones Arena in Charlottesville, Virginia. Sadly, Morgan's body was found yesterday ending her family's three-month vigil hoping and praying for her safe return.
"Mere words cannot express the anguish and grief that we know her parents Dan and Gil are feeling, and our thoughts are with them.
"If you have any information at all about Morgan's death, please contact the Virginia State Police at (434) 352-3425 or the UVA Police at (434) 352-3467 or police@virginia.edu."
Now, it appears, the Harringtons finally have their answer. Police say they have now switched their focus to finding out how Morgan Harrington ended up in the remote farm and who put her there.
During the concert, Harrington left her friends to use the restroom, police said. When she did not return, they called her cell phone at 8:48 p.m. She told them she was outside the arena and could not get back in because of its policy, police said, but told them not to worry about her and that she would find a ride home.
There are restrooms inside the arena, police said, and police do not know how or why Harrington got outside. Witnesses who saw her outside the arena said she did not appear to be with anyone, police said.
About 9:30 p.m. that night, witnesses reported seeing a person matching Harrington's description walking on a nearby bridge, police said. No further sightings were reported.
Harrington's purse, with her identification and cell phone inside, was found the following day in an overflow parking lot near the arena, police said. A friend had driven Harrington's car to the concert, she said, and was still in possession of the car keys when they got separated.
Harrington was reported missing the day after the concert, when she did not show up at her parents' home to study for a math exam with her father.
Working with police and the Texas-based Laura Recovery Center, the Harringtons organized community searches, saying they would not give up hope that their daughter would be found.
A $150,000 reward has been offered for information leading to Harrington's whereabouts, police said. Of that, Metallica contributed $50,000.
The couple was joined at a news conference after her disappearance by Ed Smart, whose daughter Elizabeth was abducted in 2002. She returned home nine months later, after police say they found her in the custody of Brian David Mitchell and his wife, Wanda Barzee.
Harrington said he reached out to Smart last week to seek advice on how to go through the disappearance of a child.
Harrington was wearing a black Pantera T-shirt, a black miniskirt, black tights and black boots when last seen.
