After months of rumors, Bruce Springsteen has finally announced the details of his 17th studio album. The disc is called Wrecking Ball and will hit shelves on March 6th. (Listen to a stream of the lead single "We Take Care Of Our Own" on Springsteen's official website.) "Bruce has dug down as deep as he can to come up with this vision of modern life," Springsteen's manager Jon Landau said in a statement. "The lyrics tell a story you can't hear anywhere else and the music is his most innovative of recent years. The writing is some of the best of his career and both veteran fans and those who are new to Bruce will find much to love on Wrecking Ball."
Two of the songs have been performed on previous tours. Springsteen debuted the title track at Giants Stadium in the fall of 2009 and played it regularly throughout the rest of the Working on a Dream tour. "Land of Hope and Dreams" was first performed on the the E Street Band's 1999 reunion tour. There are nine brand new songs on the album.
Wrecking Ball was produced by Ron Aniello – who has worked with Guster, Candlebox and Springsteen's wife Patti Scialfa – alongside Springsteen and executive producer Jon Landau. It features a wide variety of players, including guitarist Tom Morello, former Pearl Jam drummer Matt Chamberlain and members of the E Street Band.
The album is a politically charged disc about the current state of America. Jon Landau tells Rolling Stone that the disc has "social overtones" and a "very pronounced spiritual dimension . . . It extends and deepens the vision that has animated all of Bruce's work."
A source told the Hollywood Reporter that the album has "unexpected textures – loops, electronic percussion . . . influences and rhythms from hip-hop to Irish folk rhythms."
According to multiple sources, Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band will kick off a world tour in March. A complete tracklisting from the album is below, as well as a video of Springsteen and the E Street Band playing the title track at Giants Stadium in October 2009.

Now, you may have already heard of a rather unusual musical / Power Metal project initiated by two friends from the Netherlands – who call themselves POWERIXTIX. Wait, you haven’t ? Then sit tight and and relax, for now it is your time to get to know these guys. Right – we are here to find out whether their album ETERNITY actually is something to care about – or, if it is just a sorry attempt to create something… unusual. POWERIXTIX consist of two main members, RIX and TIX – or, if you might want to call them by their real names – Erik and Tim. As you can see on their Blogspot-Page, they seem to be your not-so-ordinary at all Dutch’s, who have a serious affection for a genre many people out there tend to love – we are speaking about the overall Power Metal-genre indeed. And, what automatically comes along: the melody, the speed, the catchy choruses, the high-pitched vocals and… you know the rest. So, their idea was to produce a CD that has a certain ‘mix-tape’ touch, which is rather unusual in any Metal genre – some tend to know about similar productions from genres like Rap or RnB. Exactly the genres POWERIXIX would never listen to – as they often state in a humorous manner. So what kind of CD is ETERNITY, then ? Is it a CD you could carry over to a (Metal-)party, being assured that you have a various selection of uplifting Power Metal-tracks pounding through the speakers – or do we rather speak about a pure fun-project here, a CD that fraternizes their devotion to the Power Metal-genre ?
If you love the sound of the Pro-Tooled, slickly produced metal albums that are being churned out by the dozen these days, you'll want to skip over Christian Mistress.
While the Olympia, Washington-based metal band won't be winning over any fans who thrive on auto-tune and quantized drums, they should appeal to anyone hungry for a slab of traditional-minded heavy metal with a modern twist.
Their latest offering, Possession, picks up where their 2010 debut album, Agony & Opium, left off -- with the powerful pipes of Christine Davis providing a Doro-meets-Coven wail over the twin-guitar attack of Ryan McClain and Oscar Sparbel.
Possession, as any sophomore album should be, sees the band fine-tuning their sound, which mixes equal parts NWOBHM and good ol' fashioned American doom metal.
I recently caught up with guitarists Ryan McClain and Oscar Sparbel to talk guitar, Possession and the importance of noodling.

Band: Phil Mogg - vocals Vinnie Moore - guitar Paul Raymond - guitar and keyboards Andy Parker - drums
Additional Musicians: Lars Lehmann - bass
Production:
Produced and engineered by Tommy Newton.
Review:
On their last album Phil Mogg and company ratcheted things up a few notches -- the result was the no frills 2009 album The Visitor. The latest UFO offering is entitled Seven Deadly, and features grotesque artwork that appears to have been created with Microsoft's paint program -- its cringe worthy.
Album cover aside the music found within Seven Deadly is a continuation of the foundation (of this incarnation of the band) laid with 2004's You Are Here. Phil Mogg isn't an extraordinary singer by any means, but he does a magnificent job and is the right guy for UFO. Mogg remains the wily silver fox with the dry British sense of humor and the notebooks filled with clever lyrics -- "Fight Night" is evidence of this.
On this, album number four of the Vinnie Moore era, UFO have delivered yet another astounding, solid, and melodic classic rock record. Once again Mooredisplays a great feel for what the songs need rather than laying down meaningless notes and riffs simply for the sake of doing so -- he has also injected a bluesy feel to the albums that he's played on, at the direction of Mogg. This is a great move that has given this version of the band its own identity.
The standout tracks on Seven Deadly include "Wonderland", which has a great hook and a spectacular solo, and "Mojo Town", with its memorable groove, great driving riff and verbose solo. Ballads have been a UFO strong suit over the years, with "Angel Station" and "Waving Goodbye" continuing that tradition.Seven Deadly also succeeds with "The Last Stoner Rider", a great memorable mid-tempo track, and "Fight Night", a rambunctious rocker that rivals "Hell Driver" from The Visitor.
In 2012, despite the departure of Pete Way due to health reasons -- things are well in UFO land. www.ufo-music.info - www.facebook.com/UFOofficial - www.spv.de

Switzerland's Rizon is a big band, really, two vocalists, male and female, two guitarists, keyboardist, bass, and drummer, producing rather bombastic melodic power metal. Masquerade is their third album, the first with new female vocalist, Seraina Telli.
Above, Rizon: men in black surround girl in red.
Being my first experience with Rizon, my suspicions were aroused about the relationship of the male/female vocals. Would they be gruff male vocals (read death or 'core') challenging the siren sound of the female vocals. Thankfully, not. Both sing clean. Generally, the Matthias Gotz has the lead role, with Telli supporting in harmony, as on Sigh From Eternity or the very pleasing Remotion. Sometimes, she gets to step up as on Tears of the Sun. Ultimately, the vocal partnership is annealed by the sound vocal arrangements.
As to the music, Masquerade is generally rousing traditional heavy metal, with good melodies and notable hooks as heard on Same Same or Rise On. Guitar work is at a premium, and there's enough appropriate synth solos to suggest they don't exist only for accent. Several songs are longer, including Rise On, Out of Nowhere and Lost in Silence, allowing Rizon to stretch themselves, even seem epic at times. The album also contains El Dios, a song sung in Spanish.
With 13 songs, Masquerade is quite the platter of melodic heavy metal to digest. By the time you get to Cold Winter's Night or Time After Time, you may suspect a little redundancy and, then, wonder if it couldn't have been trimmed down by one or two songs. But in the end Masquerade is solid and entertaining album, good European melodic power metal. Recommended.

Whenever a heavy band does an acoustic album one of two things results. Either they just record acoustic arrangements of their existing songs, and either stick rigidly to the original structure or create something new and more delicate from them, or they completely mellow out and record wholly uncharacteristic tracks with softer vocals etc. Strangely, Hungarian Soulfly-clones Ektomorf have done neither of these things entirely. What they have done is rearrange five older songs, write five new ones, and top them off with covers of Johnny Cash‘s Folsom Prison Bluesand Lynyrd Skynyrd‘s Simple Man. Re-recording I Know Themsets the tone with a full on bass and drums assault that really does sound like a normal, heavy Ektomorf song with the guitars unplugged, even down to Zoltán Farkas’ growled vocals. I’m In Hate is a similar story (even if the chorus does sound like “I’m in heat”), while Redemption takes on an Alice In Chains feel mixed with Rammstein‘s Los. Stigmatized gets a softer treatment to begin with, but goes heavy in the second half, and Who Can I Trust is given a complete Spanish guitar overhaul. With the covers, Zoltán’s voice doesn’t quite suite either of them, and the decision to give the first minute of Folsom Prison Blues, which mostly sounds like Volbeat are playing it, the effect of an analogue radio with poor reception is strange, but overall at leastSimple Man is a great rendition. The real highlight appears amongst the new songs though. Be Free is actually a full-on heavy song much like the version of I Know Them, while ballads Again,Fate and Through Your Eyes are all a bit too alt-radio-rock, but To Smoulder is the kind of track the whole album should really have sounded like. Again much like an AIC acoustic song it’s dark and brooding without trying to be heavy and without being too “safe”. More like that, with some of the rearrangements and some slightly wiser choices of cover songs would have made this a superb record. Instead it’s only a slight-above-average one

It's been 6 long years since Finnish 'Horror Metallers' Domination Black's second album titled Dark Legacy, was released. Then in the end of 2009 the band lost their original singer Kapa Killgast and started a desperate search for a new vocalist. Eventually a guy called Matias Palm (known also for his other bands Heavy Metal Perse and Merging Flare) was found to replace Mr. Killgast and Domination Black were ready to kill again – at least with the new stuff they had so intensely managed to rehearse for their upcoming third record, which was baptized by the somewhat mind-tickling title Dimension: Death.
Domination Black's ex-vocalist Kapa Killgast was a great singer, often being compared to Tim "Ripper" Owens, but so is the band's new vocalist Matias Palm. Two great vocalists with two whole different vocal approaches, so suffice it to say there's no point to start comparing them to each other. What comes to Domination Black's third album, well it truly is different music-wise compared to the guys' two previous full-lengths but that doesn't mean they would have sold their souls at the altar of commercialism to gain more listeners to their side or anything like that. What Dimension: Death actually is, it's undoubtedly a more mature, refined and thought-out package from the Domination Black camp, there's not even a question about that. Musically the band has slipped a bit away from their heavy, Thrash-oriented Heavy Metal sound and added a remarkable amount of prog-ish elements into their current sound on Dimension: Death. The album sort of reminds me of what Dream Theater did on their Black Clouds & Silver Linings album, even if Domination Black use all those progressive elements more like a welcomed spice within their songs more than feeling an urgent need for getting credit as some full-blooded progressive Metal band, which they obviously are not – and should not ever be.
I would also say it's a really brave attempt from the guys to open up the whole record with the album's most epic and lengthy song called "Legacy of Fears", lasting over 10 minutes, but then again, the guys have succeeded in capturing all the right and essential components into this song in order to keep it interesting and variable enough. In "Porter at the Gates of Hell", which is one of my personal favorites off the album, Matias uses his whole capacity in a great way, at times managing to sound a lot like Rob Halford at his sixties. Guitar melodies in this particular song give a reason or two to believe the Murray/Smith span ain't anything new to the guitar span of Domination Black, Wiren/Heiskanen (start listening from the 2:32 and 3:28 minute marks - and again from the 4:10 minute mark). "The Final Sigh" is a straightforward and thrashy tune, accompanied with Matias' very Halford-like vocal approach, which gives its favorable and necessary kicks for me at least. "Angel Dark" slightly reminds me of some epic and pompous Tarot song, while a very catchy "Evilizer" twists my finger from finding this well-worn repeat button from my stereo system. The ending of the song is very Priest-like again mainly due to Matias' raspy, high-pitched screams.
I must confess I had my own fears as to how Domination Black's third would turn out to be like without their ex-vocalist's presence as an integral part of the band's sound. Thankfully all those fears have been wiped off now by the performance of the new vocalist and his band mates. Will this record become Domination Black's own breakthrough album? Time will tell...
