Helsinki, Finland-based gothic metallers THE 69 EYES are putting the finishing touches on their 10th studio album, "X", in Stockholm, Sweden for a late September release through RCA/Sony Music in Finland andNuclear Blast in the rest of Europe and North America. A single, "Red", will precede the full-length CD in August.
Commented THE 69 EYES lead singer Jyrki69: "The cover is pure goth 'n' roll: a psychedelic mirror image of old wild animal bones with our X-tagram projected over all. It's good, evil, magic and voodoo all together! Something to stare at when tripping on the album."

"X" was mixed by Stefan Boman (THE HELLACOPTERS, BULLET). "The sound is the most melodic, yet melancholic, we've ever had," saysJyrki69. "Listening to the pre-mixes have been giving goose bumps to everyone here. This is the best THE 69 EYES album ever done!"

Though organized in the early Eighties, California's Axehammer has had a spotty recording history. There first full-length album, Windrider, only arrived in 2005. Seven years later, they deliver Marching On, perhaps a title that reflects their perseverance.

Axehammer delivers basically no frills, straight up, American heavy and power metal. They've got a new lead singer in Kleber Mandrake, who sounds like a stranger mixture of Geddy Lee and young Halford. He can sing, scream, and hit those high notes with ease. However, sometimes his sustained higher notes can sound like a vibrato warble.

NOW!

Guitarist/Singer Yvon Serre returns with arguably his strongest offering yet: the suggestively titled "On All 4's". Taking his trademark classic rock overtones, zingy pop melodies and bar room grit, and adding a big nod to his early days with bands like "Yvon Serre Groupe" and "The Harry Straight Band", On All 4's should sonically appease existing fans and newcomers alike.Mixing achingly catchy commercialism 'Can't Take Anymore', nigh-on Brit pop 'Chemicals', gnarly pop ' Cookin`', and chilled rock 'You Tonight' (co-written with Jon Wilde who runs this very website) with more besides, On All 4's puts the work of many bigger bands to shame with it's adrenaline, fun-factor and variety.

Never judge a book (or album) by its cover! When this Denver, CO.-based band was first brought to my attention, going by the cover art and knowing that the label is owned and operated by Warrant’s Jerry Dixon & Erik Turner, I assumed Drug Under was going to be the type of hard rock act that drew heavily on ’80s influences. Not so. They are a modern hard rock/metal act that fits right in with the rest of the bands on active rock radio these days.
