Odin's Court
Human Life in Motion Update: Odin's Court is getting closer to finishing production of their new album Human Life in Motion at D2C Studios. There are 11 songs planned for the release, and 7 of the 11 are recorded and mixed. The remaining 4 each have 1 element left to record and then they can be mixed. The band is shooting to complete all recording by December 2010 and have final mixes done in early 2011. The album will be sent out for professional mastering and should hopefully be out by the early spring on the label ProgRock Records.
Odin's Court is also filming professional, widescreen, full high definition videos with Change of Scene. All band filming has been completed and the final filming for all non-band scenes should be completed by the end of this year. The current plan is to include a bonus DVD with the new release that includes these videos. Raw, low resolution screenshots from the band session can be seen to the right. |

Hollowmind
After a few months of rest (which have been great for regaining some energy), Hollowmind is back - and with good news!
The pre-production phase of our upcoming album has just started. With no title defined yet, the CD will have ten songs, and the writing process is quite advanced. We already have the basic structure of all songs, with lyrics also ready in most cases. During the next few months, we will finish all necessary arrangements. And, of course, rehearse a lot! We plan to enter studio early next year and hope to finish the album by mid 2011. We're really excited about it all! The new songs seem to bear our 'identity' but, at the same time, they bring new sounds and ideas, which is really good. In addition to that, some other awesome news: our drummer Felipe Gomes will take charge of arranging, playing and recording the instrument in the album, from the other side of the globe... (God bless technology!) In other words, Felipe is rejoining the band! Let's all welcome him back and hope our schedules will meet also for the new tour after the album comes out. The news aren't stopping here... Keep an eye in the band's channels (official website, MySpace, YouTube and Twitter) for more info from now on; we're going to publish updates here and there about the whole thing. Cheers, Roberto |

Images of Eden has signed deals with SavvyMuzik and Nightmare Records to handle a dual release of “Rebuilding the Ruins”. We have teamed up with Hellmut Wolf of SavvyMuzik (from Australia), who will be handling the worldwide digital release (except for USA & Canada) as well as Lance king from Nightmare Records (USA Prog/Power label) who will be handling the worldwide physical release as well as the digital for USA & Canada through Sony (RED).
Why 2 labels? Well, Images of Eden has a long standing relationship with Lance King of Nightmare but SavvyMuzik presented an offer that could not be refused. The terms and conditions of both labels worked out perfectly in that they will not overlap. We feel extremely fortunate to have with 2 amazing label contacts in our corner, both with MANY years experience in the business.
Official press release from Hellmut Wolf of SavvyMuzik:
“SavvyMuzik have just signed a distribution agreement with US Progressive Metal act “Images of Eden” and this has set to push the act to new and greater heights. Images of Eden are by no means a new act, with 100+ years of collective music experience between them, 3 full length albums, countless live shows, multiple record deals and much more. They have gained notoriety throughout North America, Europe, South America and Asia and are now taking their journey to a new level signing with SavvyMuzik.
Images of Eden are, to some degree, a concept group. Their releases create a cohesive story that picks up with every new CD where the last one left off. This being said, each album and indeed song stands strong on its own. This cohesion helps to attract their large following of supporters and feeds their hunger for each release as it comes.
Images of Eden are about to release the first single, “Tribal Scars”, off their third full-length release, “Rebuilding The Ruins”, a 73 minute concept CD, produced by Chris Lucci and mastered by Grammy-nominated producer, Eric Zimmerman (Fates Warning, Limp Bizkit, Deftones, Buck Cherry, Suicidal Tendencies, etc.). Now being backed by SavvyMuzik, their international partners, and Nightmare Records, “Rebuilding The Ruins”, is set to be released to the world in early 2011 and is sure to cause a ruckus on the international heavy music scene and to push boundaries of fellow concept artists Coheed & Cambria & Stratovarious. The single, “Tribal Scars”, will be backed by extensive radio promotions, a video clip along with the digital release via SavvyMuzik’s international distribution network. The full length album will be released by SavvyMuzik for Australia and New Zealand as physical CD as well as worldwide digital release.
SavvyMuzik is a label operating within the space of new media distribution for artists and smaller labels which do not have the reach SavvyMuzik has nationally and internationally. We focus not so much on genre but on quality of the products we distribute and license via our worldwide distribution and licensing network. SavvyMuzik is engaged in the development and promotion of artists that have the musical ability and desire to have their music heard by an international audience.”
-Gordon In preparation for the Feb, 2011 release of “Rebuilding the Ruins”, we have released our first single, “Tribal Scars”. The 3-song single is now digitally available worldwide through SavvyMuzik. It contains both CD and radio versions of “Tribal Scars” as well as an unreleased track called, “When Heaven Sleeps”. Visit iTunes- http://itunes.apple.com/us/album/tribal-scars/id397986685 for more information. |

Oh, yes!
We are starting the recording of the new CM-album.
Truls has set up his drums in the studio and will use the next couple of weeks to beat the crap out of them.
Stay tuned for updates.

Houston, TX based progressive-instrumentalists Scale The Summit have entered Audio Hammer in Orlando, FL with producer Mark Lewis (All That Remains, The Black Dahlia Murder) to record their next Prosthetic Records release.
Guitarist Chris Letchford comments: "We have been home writing for quite some time now and I'm excited to say that we just made it to Orlando this morning to start work on our next record with with Mark Lewis. I have been a fan of the production work that he has been doing for many years now. I love the ‘hugeness' of the recordings he does and I felt that is what was missing from our last record. We're all really excited to be working with Mark on this one. We have been working out a lot of new dynamic ideas for this new record and I know he is the guy to really help us capture all of it. We'll be doing 12 songs this time, all of which are really a step up from our latest album. I can't wait to get these songs finished and released for everyone to hear." |

Symphony X
North America's progressive metal masters SYMPHONY X are pleased to
announce their upcoming April 25th, 2011 show at the Metropolis in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. Also on the SYMPHONY X 2011 touring calendar are performances at the Best Buy Theater (formerly The Nokia) in New York on Friday, April 22nd and at the Wiltern Theater in Los Angeles on Tuesday, May 10th. V.I.P. tickets are available for all three shows and will include early entry, a Meet & Greet, and a free t-shirt. Purchase V.I.P. packages exclusively at EnterTheVault.com. Lead vocalist Russell Allen checks in about the new release and the upcoming shows: “I just want to say how excited I am about the new album. It's gonna kill! The songs rock and the performances by my fellow band mates are simply amazing. We can't wait to see the fans! You guys know how much we enjoy performing live. So get ready, SYMPHONY X has returned.” SYMPHONY X are currently recording their Nuclear Blast debut and follow-up to 2007’s Paradise Lost, which has sold over 60,000 copies in North America. Allen has finished recording his vocal tracks and the band is moving on to record keyboards, bass, and guitar solos. Guitarist Michael Romeo offers the following update: "We love the fans, and we know we haven't been as on top of things with the updates this year as we should have, but when it's down to the wire and we're going 24/7 trying to wrap things up, then that's what we're focused on. We really think the fans will like this album; it has been, by far, more work (and harder work) than any other album, period." The SYMPHONY X camp adds: “We're pleased to announce that both drummer Jason Rullo and lead vocalist Russell Allen recently became fathers for the second time. Jason is now the proud father of a beautiful baby girl and Russell and his wife now have a beautiful baby boy. Congratulations to them both!” In other band news, the SYMPHONY X Fan Club has been shut down and is currently being revamped. “We anticipate that it will be ready for new members around the same time as the new CD is released, if not a bit sooner. Existing/previous members should have either already received info on the change to a permanent membership setup and an invite to the new fan club mailing list or will be receiving it soon. If you are an existing/previous SYMPHONY X Fan Club member and have not received this notification, please contact Jax ( < = =text/> [email protected] Fans are encouraged to submit questions for the band’s soon-to-be-updated FAQ section of their website. Send questions in to < = =text/> [email protected] “FAQ” in the subject line. Formed in 1994 in New Jersey, SYMPHONY X has seven studio albums and one live album to their credit.

 They are a traditional Prog Metal band Jose!
The first album "Darkened Light" was one of my top choices for 2008.
I have only had the latest for a couple of days and I have only played it once.
From their CD Baby page notes:
“Sex de humana natura”, Astarte Syriaca's new work, it's a concept album and it tells about a grotesque and violent story where child delinquency, loan-sharking, drug, exploitation of prostitution, laundering and political corruption are the six weapons used by the criminal enterprises to assure their power.
In this new work we find heavy metal riffs mixed with doom rhythmics and drum'n bass grooves, all melted with arpeggiators and synths inspirated by the electronic music, while the voice tells us a story using styles as melodic metal, rap and growl. From several years Astarte Syriaca love to entrust the meaning of their music to different kind of artistic expressions: we can remember experiments like "Le stagioni di Astarte" or "Jesus Christ Superstar heavy metal opera" where the modern metal prog arrangement found more efficacy thanks to the introduction of theatrical elements inside the live shows. This time, in addition to the cd, the band decided to produce also a short movie about the concept album itself. The short movie is directed by Lucio Basadonne and Massimo Acquaviva and is written by Barbara Alesse. During the “Sex de humana natura” live show, the short movie is projected while the band is playing, so that songs and story are weaved together giving life to an enthralling plot. |
