NOW!NEW ALBUM!
British heavy metal singer Blaze Bayley (WOLFSBANE, ex-IRON MAIDEN).
When asked about the recording process for his new album, "The King Of Metal", Blaze said, "I don't like to spend a lot of time in the studio, I don't feel it's a very creative environment. I like to spend most of my time on an album in the writing process and the composing. I feel that's the bit that really counts. I'm always thinking of the audience, the fans and how I'm going to perform the songs live."
When asked if he could offer any insight as to what the new album will sound like, Blaze said, "It'll be a bit different to what I've done before because I'm producing it. There will be a lot of heavy metal, as you would expect from a Blaze Bayley album. We decided to have no rules; if we feel something is appropriate to sing or play, we will. It's all about the vibe and passion. I'm very hopeful it will turn out to be my best work."

Blaze has announced that he will be accompanied by the following musicians on his upcoming "King Of Metal" tour:
Bayley is currently at Fear Studio in Ravenna, Italy recording his new studio album, "The King Of Metal", for a spring release. A European headlining tour in support of the CD will kick off in early March in Belgium.
In a recent interview with Metal Blast, Bayley stated about "The King of Metal", "This album is a bit more back towards my classic metal style; it's closer to the 'Silicon Messiah' and 'Tenth Dimension' albums. Although I didn't plan it that way, this is how it has worked out. . . I've been working very closely with a young guitar player called Thomas Zwijsen, who has co-written most of the songs, and it has worked very well. Now, the title track, 'The King Of Metal', is dedicated to the fans, because they are the real kings of metal. Without the fans, there's no heavy metal, and I think that people trivialize that and even disrespect heavy metal fans, compared to fans of pop or jazz. I've called the album 'The King Of Metal' as a tribute to heavy metal fans, thanks to whom it has been possible for me to have such a wonderful career and spend my life as a professional singer."
Blaze last year parted ways with the rest of his band in order to pursue a career as a solo artist and the lead singer of WOLFSBANE. He explained the decision by saying that "the mental, financial and emotional strain of keeping the BLAZE BAYLEY band together has proven to be too much for me and has taken a terrible toll on my mental health. . . It has been an upsetting, frustrating and sad time because the BLAZE BAYLEY band will not be going on any more, but it is also for me a huge relief and a time to look forward."

Hysterica, Sweden’s self-proclaimed “girls made of heavy metal,” are back with their second full-length album, titledThe Art of Metal. The all-girl traditional metal band may have garnered attention by being, well, an all-girl traditional metal band, but that only goes so far in a genre where the metal has to do the talking. Fortunately Hysterica’s brand of heavy metal speaks quite loud and clear and proves that this band is more than just a collection of pretty faces.
The Art of Metal continues the in your face heavy metal style we heard on the debut Hysterica album (2009’s Metalwar). It’s all bombastic guitar riffs, chugging rhythms, fantastic melodies (they are from Sweden after all), and shout-along choruses about kicking ass and being a warrior for metal. The vocals are mostly clean – a mix between softer singing and a more forceful style – but there’s also a measure of death metal growling (quite similar to Arch Enemy’s Angela Gossow) that adds an extra metal punch to a few of these songs. Highlights include “Breaking the Walls,” “Fighters of the Century,” “Hysterica” and the closing anthem “Daughters of the Night,” but the whole of The Art of Metal is really rock-solid. You’re going to bang your head to this one.
While there’s an undeniable “gimmick factor” at work with this band (they’re certainly not downplaying their gender or looks in the promo photos after all), you can’t deny the fact that Hysterica has the musical chops to back it up. The Art of Metal is a very solid slab of traditionally minded heavy metal that’s on par with recent releases from White Wizzard, Cauldron, Enforcer and Benedictum. It may be cheesy, but it still kicks ass!

Hemina – Synthetic (2012)
Mar 8, 2012 21:08
Heavy Metal |Power Metal Progressive Rock
A little over a year ago I came across a band from down under, led by a member of progressive Metal band Anubis. This band goes by the name of Hemina. The Free dictionary says the meaning of Hemina is half a sextary or ten fluid ounces. I don't know about that. What I do know is that last year saw their debut with As we know it, an Ep with 5 tracks, three of the tracks we now find on their first full length debut album which goes by the name Synthetic.
With their Ep gaining grandeur reviews stating Hemina as an up and coming band, my expectations were rather high when I received the album. I work a little ahead if I say I was not in the least disappointed by the Hemina crew. Synthetic has become a stunning album from the first note until the last note rings away in the air.
From the opener "The Hour of Ours", slowly starting the album off, setting the mood of what is yet to come with the rest. It must be said that the album is best listened to if downloaded without pauses between the songs as all of them are linked together, and to avoid sudden stops no breaks please!
Having said that track one goes into track two, floating into one another very smoothly. With "To Conceive a Plan", mastermind behind Hemina Dougie Skene leaves no doubt, Hemina mean business. In doing that they have made a plan that is about to be conceived. In a musical sense it can be compared to the music of Dream Theater, complex but yet easy to grasp the tunes, with a lot of stunning guitar work and keyboards. Very good melody lines making the song stick in your mind when it has finished. It is quite refreshing to hear a band from down under play like this. After the band conceive the plan they find "The boy is Dead", how awful that must be. A song full of the characteristics of prog rock, changes in tempo, strange twists. Stunning guitar solos... what else is there to want. Doug Skene is the guitarist and singer in the band, he has a distinct voice. It can't be missed.
Next up are the three songs that have appeared on the EP from 2010. These are already known to a wider public, but if you don't know Hemina, this is brilliant. The song blend in nicely or should I say the album has evolved quite nicely around these songs. I guess which ever you prever.
Followed up by "Hunting is for Women", now I always thought it was for men, how mistaken I was. It a nice uptempo groovy song in the veins of the best prog around. Absolute smashing stuff, and this one is follwed by the bombastic & orchestral "Even in Heaven". A song that will grab audiences when doing it live I am sure. One thing I missed on the album, No real chorusses, or sing along songs. Still this is a typical Arena wide song. The short intermezzo "To cunduit To the sky" is very welcome after all the banging and fast playing. A moment to relax, before we go to the last tracks "Haunting Me" and "Divine". As two of a perfect pair to form the last 15 minutes.
All in all one can state: Douglas Skene is a great guitarist and singer, the rest of the band are Mitch Coull, guitar and vocals, Jessica Martin bass and vocals, Andrew Craig Drums and Percussion and last but not least Phill Eltachi keyboards. Together from down under they are Hemina.

ADRENALINE MOB – OMERTÁ (2012)
Mar 6, 2012 11:49
Hard Rock Heavy Metal |Power Metal Rock
(New York, NY – January 5, 2012) – Hot on the heels of their self-titled EP released last August, Adrenaline Mob returns with their debut full length album, Omertá. The album is slated for release on March 13th and will be released by the newly formed Elm City Music in conjunction with EMI Label Services. Elm City Music is the brainchild of music industry veteran Michael Caplan. Adrenaline Mob is the powerhouse vocals of Russell Allen, the shredding guitar attack of Mike Orlando and the drumming virtuosity of Mike Portnoy. The album builds upon the sound developed on the EP with 11 crushing tracks including the already fan favorites “Psychosane,” ”Believe Me” and “Down To The Floor.” Ultimate-guitar.com raved about the band stating “if you like hard rock or traditional metal, you should definitely give Adrenaline Mob a listen. Your ears will be happy.” New tracks such as “Indifferent,” “All On The Line” and “Angel Sky” showcase the evolution of Adrenaline Mob in their sound and songwriting. Omertá also features a blistering reinterpretation of Duran Duran’s classic “Come Undone” featuring guest vocals by Lzzy Hale of Halestorm. The album was produced by Adrenaline Mob and mixed by Jay Ruston known for his work on Anthrax’s Worship Music and Steel Panther’s Balls Out.

Great disc from this young band from Alicante. After some changes in their line-up and after a good EP Camino a la luz that already promised, they debut with this album and they premiere new vocals line with the throat of Álvaro.
If the EP was good, this album surpasses and gives many turns. Composites have improved a lot and mastering and arrangements of the disc are of very high quality. Too much for a first album, so, we can think that this people will be important on the national scene!

I find Russian metal scene to be very interesting, and I've firmly decided to discover it more profoundly than before. Of course, that means I'll have to dig some obscure and unknown (even in Russia) bands, but I'm okay with that, I love new experiences and music. The easiest way is to seek latest albums, and luckily, I know an excellent Russian site that informs me regularly about all news and releases.
That's how I ended up with Amalgama's sophomore effort, the album called ''Dream''. This band in particular isn't by any means unknown in Russia, it has a lot of fans, who absolutely loved this album. But I didn't care about that at all, since fanboys love anything related to their favourite band, so I had to see it for myself.
First, as I always do when writing about not so well-known bands, I'm gonna describe Amalgama's way of musical expression (how posh this sounds). Amalgama is a heavy/power metal band, with strong hard rock and modern metal influences. The hard rock influences reflect in vocalist's (Vlad ''Graf'' Ivoylov) singing and vocal lines, since his voice reminds me strongly of Zvonko ''?ipi'' Pantovi?, the leader of Serbian glam metal band Osvaja?i (once hugely popular in Yugoslavia). Graf's voice is very unique, since for the most of the time it sounds dreamy, almost sleepy. However, when he goes for high notes, it's just stunning how clean and powerful is his singing in high register. He is definitely the key factor in Amalgama, since no other band member stands out that much in his playing. That is a direct consequence of this modern side of Amalgama's music. Musical-wise, Amalgama plays straight-forward heavy metal, with simplistic riffs, and the downtuning make it sounds very modern (read groove and mallcore influenced). However, Amalgama never descends into mallcore territory, although dangling dangerously close several times (especially in ''Wake Up Again''). One more thing - most of the modern bands I listen to try to resemble or at least have something in their music which can be directly associated to '80s metal. Amalgama doesn't - the year is 2012, and these guys are telling you: ''Live now, stop thinking about the past''. So if you hate every metal that wasn't written in the '80s (and I know that kind of freaks), stop reading and go somewhere else. You won't find anything here for you.
So how does work this unusual combination of past and present, personified in Amalgama? Surprisingly well, I must say. When they're in top shape, they sound convincing, refreshing and irresistibly charming. Just perfect if you got brainwashed from stereotypical generic power metal, which occupies today's European metal scene. The songs like ''Dream'', ''Live and Remember'', ''The Night is Tender'' and ''Believe in Love'' are all brilliant gems that show you all virtues of Amalgama. They're perfect from the start to ending, which will prove to be one thing the other songs don't have. The only flaw of this album lies in this - a good amount of songs have one specific aspect in it that can called filler - the main riff, bridge, chorus, whatever. You're probably confused now, so here's the deal: the ballad ''Why'' has a great beginning acoustic riff and build-up, but the chorus is dead boring and uninspired. Same thing with ''Your Opinion'' - it starts as a speed metal monster, but who the fuck thought that a quasi-progressive chorus would suit the song? It practically ruins it. ''Kings of Sky'', on the other hand, has a brilliant, ''Aces High''-reminiscing chorus, but the verses are just bland. I could go on and on, but you get the point. This is one awkward situation, because never before I listened to so many songs on one single album in whom brilliant and pitiful parts go side by side. The good consequence of this is that there are no total fillers on this album, and the bad is that you just can't totally enjoy it. Oh yeah, the bonus tracks are great - Oleg Zhilyakov (Catharsis) makes a great guest appearance on ''Dream'', Artur Berkut makes ''Why?'' a tad better, and the cover of Aria's famous piece ''Angel Dust'' is awesome. Check out how this song sounds in a modern arrangement.
Call me a masochist, but I still enjoyed this album very much. Despite some very obvious facepalming parts, I wasn't bored one single second, what's more, I had a great time listening to ''Dream'', and that's what really counts in the end, doesn't it? This album could be an excellent indicator to Amalgama what they should and shouldn't do in the future. A little more focus would give astonishing results. All pieces are there, just waiting to be sorted. I'm holding my fingers crossed for Amalgama's next efforts, that's for sure!
