| » | MNEMIC n'enregistrera pas son nouvel album au mois de février chez Peter Tägtgren comme prévu car le groupe danois n'est tout simplement pas prêt et qu'il ne veut pas précipiter les choses.

Pour écouter ça, direction MySpace. | | | » | Robb Flynn de MACHINE HEAD a donné quelques indications sur le nouvel album du groupe, qui devrait sortir fin 2006 début 2007 sur Roadrunner Records. 4 morceaux seraient déjà composés à 80-90%, dans la veine du précédent album mais sûrement pas un retour aux sources du premier album. Voici ce qu'en dit l'ami Flynn (citations prises sur Blabbermouth):
"So what does are new shit sound like?
Well... it doesn't sound like [METALLICA's] 'Master of Puppets' [as Flynn was quoted as saying in a Revolver magazine article] all that much... at least yet. I guess I'll try and explain it like this. It's pretty varied, has elements of all the records, and has a semi-'Through the Ashes of Empires'-ish vibe, and definitely NOT a 'Burn My Eyes Pt. II' vibe. It's not 'back to the roots.' We have about four songs that I think are 80% to 90% there musically (not lyrically), and we have another 9 or 10 parts (intros / bridges / verse with a chorus / half songs) floating about that are definitely NOT there. As of now (Jan. 9th, 2006), we have no 'Imperium's or 'Descend the Shades' and our feeling is that if we can't come up with a new 'Imperium' that kicks the old 'Imperium''s ass...well...we're just gonna try something else.
"Of the four songs I'm really excited about, Dave [McClain, drums], Phil [Demmel, guitar] or myself have written the bulk, and Adam [Duce, bass] has brought in lyrics and a chunk of riffs too. Even though Phil was there for part of the writing process of 'Through the Ashes of Empires' (and co-wrote three songs), Phil being part of the whole writing process is adding another, very cool dimension to it all. In fact, the one song that I'm most excited about was penned largely by Phil, with me adding some melodic three-part guitar harmonies / two-part vocal harmonies in the bridge, plus a SEPULTURA-style thrash / lead part in the middle, Dave's added some Keith Moon-style drumming in the bridge which sounds crazy, but kicks serious ass, and Adam is hitting some ball-squeezing high notes that will have Rob Halford smiling (...about the high notes, not the ball-squeezing *cough*). Since we don't have many titles right now, that one I just mentioned is jokingly called 'In The Presence Of Davidian Jr.' (mainly for its mid tempo). The bridge to this song is on some serious U2-gonna-make-you-cry-worthy-ness.
"I think most of you will be interested to know that … a lot of the lyrics had taken on a more social nature, and a less personal tone (at least for now). They have also taken on a very depressing nature as well — though I don't know why — it's just what I've been feeling like writing about. The lyrics that I think are really working well are the ones that are the most depressing, including some about suicide, or the idea of suicide.
"Of the other songs, 'Iron Rush-ian' (as it is called by our manager 'cause it has a MAIDEN / RUSH vibe to it) was the first completed of the four. We like to call it 'Notey Intro / Mega In Chains'. It has a cool up-tempo vibe, a part that reminds me of old MEGADETH a little, big 'The More Things Change…'-era breakdown in the middle, dual leads... it's rockin'... but has no lyrics.
"There's 'Priest Harbor -aka- Victim Of Changes III', which has an 'Elegy'-ish vibe to it, though longer and more complex, it has a very melodic PRIEST-ish chorus, cool build-ups, and heavy breakdowns, fast parts, leads, harmonies galore, and vox harmonies galore too. Overall it's pretty melodic musically / vocally and I could see RR eyeing this for a single, though at six minutes that'll be a stretch.
"The fourth song is jokingly called 'The Thrash-terpiece!', and it's what the name implies, fast as all hell, with a full-on 'Blood For Blood' / 'Struck a Nerve' / Bay Area thrash vibe to it. Probably the fastest song we've written in 10 years, and though it doesn't sound like it, is probably the most difficult song (guitar-wise) we've ever attempted to play (down-picking / million-note mania). Cool, very complex bridge / lead section that takes it in a musically melodic direction, with trade-off leads and harmonies. No singing at all, just hard vox. It's the one song that is also the most finished lyrically, and the only song with an actual title. It's called 'Aesthetics of Hate' and it's my take on neo-con and Dimebag critic William Grim, and people like him. Some of you may remember that the song 'Independent' (Max's [Cavalera] and my song from the 'Roadrunner United' album) was very loosely based on the same topic. This is my much more pointed, specific and pissed off take on it.
"You've probably seen the word 'complex' pop up a buncha times, and it's fitting. It's musically complex, though it doesn't sound it, and that seems like a good thing.
"The guys have unanimously chosen 'your boy here' to produce the album again, and between 'Through the Ashes of Empires' and my production work on the 'Roadrunner United' album, I feel really confident going into this next record.
"We took a break for the Roadrunner [anniversary] party / holidays and began jamming the other day for the first time in six weeks... WHEW... YIKES! To quote Lemmy, 'If we practiced next to your house, we would have killed your lawn!' We'll get back into it though, and I feel like the break did us good, gave us perspective." | | | » | Le clip de BLEEDING THROUGH pour le morceau "Kill To Believe" est dispo à cette adresse.

"So, this is it. After almost five long years of putting everything we have into this band, it has finally brought itself to an end. For the whole time we've put all our creative and physical energy into writing and performing music that we believed in completely, and for the most part we've been underappreciated, misunderstood and misrepresented by both the media and by the general public. We've never been 'the U.K.'s answer' to anybody; we've never been a 'fashioncore' band or a 'noisecore' band and we've certainly never once adhered to any of your bullshit 'scene' rules. We are who we are and we played what we wanted, and in our minds we've set an example and achieved more than we ever thought possible. I'm sorry to say that it seems that right now, you either need to look stupid or sound shit (or more often than not a combination of the two) to get anywhere in this 'scene,' two things that have never applied to BEECHER.
"The reason for our break-up is a combination of personal reasons that no one outside of our band needs to know, but rest assured now is the time, the time for us all to get our lives back
"We have made some great friends and fans along the way and to those people we give our sincere thanks. We hope our band will live on in your memories, as it's sure to in ours. We've had some fucking good times. If you ever deserved thanks, then you got it in at least one of our record sleeves." | | | » | TO-MERA (dark/prog avec l'ex-Without Face Julie Kiss et l'ex-Extreme Noise Terror Lee Barrett) a signé sur Candlelight Records.
