Metal Mind Productions will release, in early June, the first live DVD by the Polish progressive rock band Love De Vice. The DVD entitled "Silesian Night 11.11.11" is planned to be released on June, 4th in Europe and July, 24th in USA (via MVD).
The band was formed by a bunch of friends who had previously played together in several different rock bands. Finally, at the end of 2008, they came together and started to work on their debut album under the moniker Love De Vice. The album entitled “Dreamland” was released in June 2009. The band spent the rest pf the year playing live shows to promote “Dreamland” and rehearsing the material for the second album. They also produced their first video for the song "Foggy Future", which you can still watch wlmailhtml:%7b5CE3DDAB-1EC4-463A-AD4D-4DBA787D1475%7dmid://00000050/!x-usc:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6gVY8h24iAE&feature=player_embedded#!" rel="nofollow - HERE . The debut release was also appreciated outside of Poland. In October 2010, the band performed at the prestigious festival Prog Power Europe in Holland. Also in 2010, the band released the sophomore album entitled “Numaterial”. And today they are back with their first DVD release, which features their outstanding performance at the Silesian Theatre in Katowice on November, 11th 2011.

For the band, it wasn’t just an ordinary gig, it was also a chance to present the renewed “spirit and body” of Love De Vice. On that cold and dark November evening, the band performed in a new, improved line-up – with the new keyboardist, Jack Melnicki (LSD Project, ex-Riverside), whose rich and spacious arrangements ideally tuned into the style of the band. Except for a few well-known tracks taken from their two albums, they mainly presented brand new material. Six out of nine compositions recorded on that night are planned to be included on their new, as yet untitled studio album. These include such compositions as the Floyd-ish “Another Day”, the delicate “Frosty Morning”, reminiscent of King Crimson's debut, and the oriental “Winter of Soul”, performed with hard rock spirit, as well as the monumental “Say No”. Besides the new original compositions, the tracklist also includes a cover of Deep Purple's “When a Blind Man Cries", played in a completely different arrangement, and the band’s best-known pieces, such as "With You Now" and "Letter in A Minor". On that night, Love De Vice was accompanied by such guests as the National Philharmonic musician Mateusz Szmyt on cello and Tomasz "Ragaboy" Osiecki on dilruba (which is a variation of the Hindu sitar played with a bow), which spiced the arrangements with an even more oriental atmosphere. The "Silesian Night 11.11.11" DVD will also include additional materials, such as interviews with the band members, photo gallery, band’s history and the video clip "Foggy Future".

Polish progressive rock band
Love De Vice has recently released their first live DVD which
features the band’s outstanding performance at the Wyspiański Theatre in
Katowice. And now you can see another preview track taken from "Silesian
Night 11.11.11” DVD - Deep Purple’s cover “When a Blind Man Cries” is
available now on Metal Mind Productions’ official channel on YouTube in
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h5toX5eFLBc&feature=youtu.be" rel="nofollow - THIS
location.
Tomasz Kudelski
(drums) comments the track: “’When a Blind Man Cries’ is the only cover song
we've been playing at our gigs, often changing the style of its arrangement.
Deep Purple is actually my favourite band. Back when we founded Love De Vice, I
envisioned it as a combination of the styles of Deep Purple and Pink Floyd. Even
though the song doesn't seem to be such, it's actually very difficult to play
because it's beautiful in its simplicity. And it's sung by Gillan, who was a god
of vocals at that time. Most of the covers of ‘When a Blind Man Cries’ are
failures because they are just imperfect copies of the original, with bad
vocals. We decided to change this song a bit and play it as if it was one of our
own. We reconstructed it, we added some motifs which weren't part of the
original song and made it much longer. But at the same time we tried to retain
the melancholy mood of the original, which goes pretty well with our own style.
I'm far from saying we played it better than Deep Purple, but we certainly
played it differently. I think our version holds up pretty well, both with
reference to the vocal and instrumental performance.” The "Silesian
Night 11.11.11" DVD also includes additional materials, such as interviews with
the band members, photo gallery, band’s history and the video clip "Foggy
Future". Out now on Metal Mind Productions
