Atlanta progressive metal band Halcyon Way has completed the tracking for their new CD, to be released late Spring by Nightmare Records

February 5, 2010 at 10:51 am (Latest News) (, , , , , , )

The album was produced by Lasse Lammert (Alestorm, Svartsot) and guitarist Jon Bodan. Drums were engineered by Mike Froedge (doubleDrive, Bloodsimple, Speed X) at Open Sky Studios in Atlanta. Lammert is mixing the album at his studio, LSD-Tonstudio in Germany.
The new release is the follow-up to the critically acclaimed debut by the band, A Manifesto For Domination. It features the debut of new vocalist Steve Braun (Ashent, Siloam), as well as a guest appearance by Pamela Moore of Queensryche fame. “We’re incredibly excited about the new material,” said guitarist Jon Bodan.
“This album is a quantum leap forward for Halcyon Way – the material is both heavier and more aggressive, but it also is far catchier and more melodic at the same time than Manifesto. The guys in the band all stepped their individual games up, and the material is better for it. Lasse did a great job on the production, and we expect the mixdown and mastering process to be completed by the end of February.”
Halcyon Way has appeared live with many bands such as Helloween, Strapping Young Lad, TYR, Kamelot, Symphony X, Doro Pesch, Cathedral, Virgin Black, Samael, Vicious Rumors, Seven Witches, and many others. In addition they have appeared at ProgPower USA on two occasions, and at Rocklahoma 2008 and 2009.

Rockpolis Media a pus in vanzare abonamente de trei zile la festivalurile Metalfest

February 3, 2010 at 2:04 pm (Comunicate de presa) (, , , , , , , )

Festivalurile Metalfest (www.metalfest.eu) vor fi cele mai mari evenimente a lumii muzicii metale în vara anului 2010. Organizatorii festivalurilor renumite ca Summer Nights din Austria, Legacy Festival din Germania şi Metal Dazy din Elveţia au reunit fortele pentru a organiza serialul de festivale cel mai puternic al Europei Centrale. Evenimentele festivalelor vor fi realizate cu profil şi promoţie unică. Organizatorii versiunii din Cehia vor fi cei a festivalului legendar Masters of Rock, iar versiunea maghiară va fi coordonat de echipa Hammer Concerts (http://www.hu.metalfest.eu/?lang=en) împreună cu agenţia austriacă Rock The Nation.

Festivalul de trei zile în Ungaria va avea loc între 21 şi 23 mai 2010, în Centrul de Tineret şi Recreaţie Csillebérc (Budapesta, sector 12, strada Konkoly Hege Miklós nr. 21)

Centrul de Tinere şi Recreaţie Csillebérc este locul ideal pentru un astfel de eveniment pentru că este uşor accesibil din toate punctele Ungarie chiar şi cu mijloace  de transport public. Este situat pe un parc uriaş, păduros, unde fanaticii metalului vor avea locuri nelimitate pentru corturi. În plus poate oferi cazare pentru 1000 de persoane în căsuţe de lemn. Centrul a oferit loc timp de mai multe decenii pentru tabere de tineret, de aceea este perfecţionat în privinţa centrelor sanitare, toaletelor şi duşurilor. De aceea oginizatorii garantează că feastivalul din Ungaria va fie festivalul cel mai civilizat al Europei.

Programul festivalului nu este încă complet, organizarea este încă în curs, dar lista artistilor participanţi este deja distinsă: Nevermore, Hammerfall, Sonata Arctica, Finntroll, Korpiklaani, Death Angel, Deicide, Deathstars, Astral Doors, Elvenking, Marduk, Sabaton, Vader, Eluveitie, Brainstorm, Varg, Leaves’ Eyes, Nightmare, Legion Of The Damned, Decapitated, Powerwolf, Nevergreen, Kalapács, I Divine.

Trupele enumerate vara asta nu apar în faţa publicului maghiar numai la acest festival, iar în Ungaria va fie unicul lor concert în anul 2010.

Lăngă trupele enumerate mai sus se mai adaugă încă 7-10 trupe cunoscute internaţional din care 4-5 sunt foarte populare, dar participă şi trupe underground ambiţioase cu muzică palpitantă şi de calitate.

Scena festivalului: Centrul de Tineret şi Recreaţie Csillebérc (Budapesta., sector 12, strada Konkoly Hege Miklós nr. 21)

Acces:

Cu mijloace de transport public: Pornire la de piaţa Moszkva cu autobuzul nr. 90 până la staţia Gyerekvasút, sau pornire de la piaţa Moszkva cu autobuzul negru nr. 21 până la staţia Normafa
