Rush will return this summer with "Clockwork Angels," the iconic prog-rock band revealed on Wednesday. The new album, due June 12, will be the trio's first studio effort since 2007's "Snakes & Arrows" and their debut for Anthem/Roadrunner Records.
For the new set, the band turned again to "Snakes & Arrows" co-producer Nick Raskulinecz and recorded in Nashville and Toronto. The conceptual set will trace a protagonist's journey through a world of steampunk, alchemy and an exotic carnival; drummer and lyricist Neil Peart is also penning a novelization of the album with prolific author Kevin J. Anderson
Between albums, Rush has kept busy with a series of tours, documenting their most recent dates with the "Time Machine 2011: Live in Cleveland" live album and DVD last November. (They also made an appearance as the object of Paul Rudd and Jason Segel's sonic affection in the 2009 film "I Love You, Man.")
I think it's love again! Hoist the flags because one of the best records ever released has gone in for a service and Mr T has souped up a near perfect 10" record into a hot rod ride of extended tracks that, once you lift the hood and check out the reworking of these tracks, any sceptics will be able to sit back, relax and sigh with relief as to how they've been lovingly primed and reworked.
Clearly benefiting from time away Tyla has stripped the tracks that originally appeared and some of the others that went missing at the time and lovingly recreated them and, in my humble opinion, in many cases revved them into something better than the originals sounded.
2012, after their debut ,,This Is U" released in 2006 and many concerts with SCORPIONS, DEF LEPPARD, WHITESNAKE, NIGHTWISH, EDGUY the band is back with CYBERIA. Greek singer / songwriter ,,Hannibal" is known for his performance in the band SPITFIRE who supported bands like IRON MAIDEN, WASP and SAXON. On their latest tour they supported Tarja and he sang a duet with her on ,,Phantom Of The Opera".
Concept album about a family that has to leave their homeland in the confusion during World War II.
Fuchs, is really one person named: Hans-Jurgen Fuchs , I did not know of his existence until this cd arrived! One person I say, but there are guests and friends on this outing! Apparently Fuchs has been a very creative person and has indeed been the creative force behind his spouse´s solo work 4 albums released under the moniker: Inez (whom also contributes to this album) and I do remember coming across one of her albums some time ago! This album has well over an hour (see duration time) of listening stuff so much for quantity). I must say that it initially is a bland affair, the album opens with " Long time ago" sort of singer/songwriter thing, nothing special, doesn't work for me! "Summer We Come" on the other hand, has some more rock orientated sequences or sentences if you will, much more
Brian Tambling is preparing to release his debut album on June 1st marking a huge stage in the career of the multi-talented guitarist.
The Irish guitarist who currently resides in Curacao; Dutch Caribbean, has just put the final touches to the album and is now preparing for the imminent release that will hopefully build his fan base and get his music heard by more people than ever.
The Album "Brian Tambling" consists of 11 original songs, each providing a combination of his high-energy guitar playing, melodious vocals and heartfelt lyrics. The rhythmic undercurrent bears testament to blues-rock playing, and the music is punctuated throughout with elements of blues, blues-rock and folk.
The album was recorded at Kadushi-Records on Curacao, and its creation was supported by bass and drums. It was produced by Brian and was post produced/mixed by Wietze Krikke.
The album reveals the stunning array of influences that have found their way into Brian's music.
