BONDED BY BLOOD - NEW INTERVIEW ON ABOUT.COM

BONDED BY BLOOD - NEW INTERVIEW ON ABOUT.COM

Chad Bowar of About.com recently spent some time with BONDED BY BLOOD guitarist, Juan Juarez about his influences, what personally makes him tick and what exactly is the deal with the band's cover of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles theme song:

"Q: What’s the story behind the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle theme being on the album?
A: Well it all started with my singer Jose actually listening to the cartoon theme online while we were rehearsing. As we practiced Jose suggested in covering the song and making it into our style and we all thought it was a great idea because we are all big turtle fans. We've played many shows covering this song, and people love it and go crazy! So why not put it in the album?"

EPHEL DUATH - GUITARIST DAVIDE TISO COMMENTS ON NEW ALBUM

DAVIDE TISO, guitarist and founding member of Italian experimental jazz
metallers EPHEL DUATH, has spoken about the band's upcoming new album,
THROUGH MY DOG'S EYES.

Commented DAVIDE: "Through My Dog's Eyes is a generous album and we are
extremely proud of it. After tons of preproductions we are ready to enter
the studio this next July 14 to complete the recording sessions. We have
tried to limitate intricate structures, and dissonant arrangements, offering
a warm trip not too difficult to capture and appreciate. This album arrives
directly to the stomach of the listener, but not using any kind of violence.
The body of TMDE is massive, his eyes are delicate and gentle: what you find
in a big size dog.

Considering our career so far, this is the album that in the composition
phase had the chance to breathe the most, and this has let us keep just the
best of it. The core of every song became the song itself. We've gone
through so many things while making this record that it can be felt in the
music but contrary to the past the outcome is positive: no matter how
painful the journey, you have to find something good in it too. This album
is an ode to life, simply."

EPHEL DUATH are set to enter Outer Sound Studios in Rome on July 14th to
complete the recording of THROUGH MY DOG'S EYES with producer GIUSEPPE
ORLANDO (NOVEMBRE, KLIMT 1918). The drums for the album have already been
recorded by MARCO MINNEMANN at Seacoast Studio in Imperial Beach,
California. Mastering for THROUGH MY DOG'S EYES will take place at Finnvox
Studios (HIM, NIGHTWISH) in Helsinki, Finland, while the artwork for the
album is being done by SELDON HUNT (NEUROSIS, ISIS, SUNNO)))).

Due to be released later this year by EARACHE RECORDS, THROUGH MY DOG'S EYES
will have the following track listing:

01. Gift
02. Promenade
03. Breed
04. Silent Door
05. Bella Morte
06. Nina
07. Guardian
08. Spider Shaped Leaves
09. Bark Loud

BONDED BY BLOOD - JOSE "ALADDIN" BARRALES REPORTS FROM THE 'THRASHING LIKE A MANIAC' TOUR

From the roads of Portland, OR, readying for tomorrow's stop on the
THRASHING LIKE A MANIAC tour, BONDED BY BLOOD vocalist, Jose "Aladdin"
Barrales chimed in with a report on how the tour's been treating the band so
far:

"The shows have been great so far and every show has been a blast,
especially in places outside of southern California. We never get out there
so in places like San Francisco when we see all the people who are there to
see us and who are singing every word to our songs, it makes us feel really
loved. There wasn't even any parking over there so that made the fans extra
cool to be able to handle having to park, like, a mile away just to hang
with us and forget their troubles for a while."

This being BONDED BY BLOOD's first national trek, they are just starting to
deal with the very strange and mostly uncomfortable life of a band on the
road:

"Our van's really comfortable. We have a bed in the back that 2 of us sleep
in each night. The rest of us sleep in these comfy van chairs, usually me
and my merch guy. Makes it feel like a big family road trip."

While BONDED BY BLOOD's living arrangements seem more comfortable than that
of most other bands, life outside of the van can be just as strange as any
other:

"We met some weird-ass people. This guy in Stockton (CA) at a Denny's
randomly came up to us and offered us jobs and free weed. This other guy in
Sacramento was like "Here in Cowtown (nickname for the region of Sacramento
they were in), we like to fight" like he expected us to throw down or
something."

Along with the strange comes the good and for Jose, the best is yet to come:

"We're pumped for Portland. There's a huge metal scene out there. We can't
wait for Texas, either. We've gotten a lot of comments from people out there
and they're like (in best southern accent) "Whenever you boys come down to
Texas, we'll make sure to treat you right." We're also playing Billy
Milano's club down there. It's going to be sick."

LAWNMOWER DETH REUNITE TO OPEN FOR BULLET FOR MY VALENTINE

LAWNMOWER DETH, the long-defunct late '80s/early '90s English comedy/thrash
metal band which released three-and-a-half well-regarded albums, will
reunite for a one-off appearance as the opening act for BULLET FOR MY
VALENTINE on November 15 at Alexandra Palace in London, England. Also
scheduled to appear are LACUNA COIL, BLEEDING THROUGH and BLACK TIDE.

Commented LAWNMOWER DETH: "We are aware that we will stand out like a sore
thumb on this lineup, but to be honest we are really happy to have been
offered the chance to get back together again play such a venue with these
bands.

"We would like to offer our gratitude to BULLET FOR MY VALENTINE (and their
crew) for this opportunity... to be honest, it's not really sunk in yet!

We have managed to get everyone together now... even Mr Flymo [a.k.a.
drummer Chris Flint] who up until recently seemed to have vanished off the
face of the earth! (I suspect he's been running the Mower Liberation Front
from a secret location in the deepest depths of Warsop).

"So the next step is to start rehearsals... it's been 13 or 14 years since
any of us played in a band, so it's going to be fun!

"What we have agreed on so far is that the majority of our set will be from
[1990's] 'Ooh Crikey It's... Lawnmower Deth'... seeing as no one liked the
other stuff :)

"So there you have it... I'll keep posting blogs to keep you all up to date
on how things are progressing, we may even post some clips of rehearsals as
they progress."

LAWNMOWER DETH's third, and final, album "Billy", was released in 1993 on
EARACHE RECORDS.

DEICIDE - GLEN BENTON "GOES POSTAL" IN AUGUST ISSUE OF REVOLVER

DEICIDE's Glen Benton is the subject of the monthly "Going Postal" feature
in the new August 2008 issue of Revolver. Glen was asked a series of
questions by readers of Revolver, many on the subject of his influences, his
personal life and DEICIDE's legacy.

One of the more unique questions was sent in by reader "Anthony," who asked;
"What really happened between you and [murdered MAYHEM founder] Euronymous
when you met in the early 90's?"

Glen responded; "This is how out of the loop I was. I met him and he kind of
reminded me of Squiggy from Laverne and Shirley. Because I met him when I
was a kid, too, at a baseball game. I met him and I was like Wow, fuckin'
Squiggy. Anyway, I meet the guy and he's carrying a mace, but it looks like
he stole the table leg off his mom's kitchen table and put, like, nails
through it and shit. And he was wearing this $1.99 cape that you'd buy at
the dollar store during Halloween. They brought me backstage and they said,
"Uranus or whatever from MAYHEM is there and wants to meet you." So I went
out there and met him. And in his broken English, he said [in robotic,
foreign accent] "I did not have problem with you, but this band GORGUTS.
They are not true death-metal/black-metal band." And I was just sitting
there with a big shit-eating grin on my face like "Yeah, that's cool man."
And I really didn't know the importance of the guy. To me he looked like
another goofball fan."

Read the full "Going Postal" with Glen Benton in the August 2008 issue of
Revolver magazine.

TILL DEATH DO US PART debuted on the Billboard Heatseekers chart and that
heat continues to rise. Buy the album as a special edition CD with a free
"GLEN BENTON FOR PRESIDENT" woven patch - hurry, only available while
supplies last! The album is also available as standard CD, limited edition
12" picture disc LP and limited edition 12" color vinyl LP.

To purchase the album and get your free patch, head to your nearest music

MUNICIPAL WASTE - WATCH 'SADISTIC MAGICIAN' VIDEO ONLINE

Chaos broke out recently when Virginian thrashers MUNICIPAL WASTE paid a
visit to a nuclear power plant. Needless to say, the power plant couldn't
handle the sheer energy of the band and the building started to collapse,
causing toxic waste to leak into the local water supply with some rather
unsettling results.

There couldn't be a scarier thought, but luckily for us, this didn't
actually happen. This tale of terror sets the scene for MUNICIPAL WASTE's
gory new music video for the track SADISTIC MAGICIAN, which comes off the
band's 2007 EARACHE RECORDS album, THE ART OF PARTYING.

Filmed at the Hyperion Sewage Treatment Plant in Playa del Ray, California,
the SADISTIC MAGICIAN video was directed by JEFF SPEED of 1134 Films and
produced by CAROLYN VYE of The Vault LA (KILLSWITCH ENGAGE, AS I LAY DYING,
MADINA LAKE) and features MUNICIPAL WASTE doing what they best - thrashing
it up and laying waste to everything around them!

Director JEFF SPEED comments on the video: "Humor, horror, metal and mayhem
have always been a winning combination. It's 80's throwback to the fullest -
back when videos were fun and the music was still dangerous. MUNICIPAL WASTE
is the perfect band for it because this is exactly who they are - no
bullshit."

Check out all the carnage of the video at
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-RDGLQuBkaE

If you don't already have THE ART OF PARTYING, there's no better time to get
it than now! A special Redux edition of this modern thrash classic is
available on June 16th in the UK/Europe and July 8th in the US, exclusive to
Hot Topic, and comes in a toxic green case complete with a previously
unreleased bonus track, two bonus videos and an exclusive poster.

Pre-order your copy now from the Earache European webstore at

webstore at http://www.earachestore.com/store/municipalwaste.html

ORDER OF ENNEAD SIGN WORLDWIDE DEAL WITH EARACHE RECORDS

Earache Records is proud to announce the signing of Florida extreme metal
band Order of Ennead to a multi-album worldwide recording deal.

Order of Ennead comprise of: Steve Asheim (drums), Scott Patrick (bass),
Kevin Quirion (guitar, vocals), John Li (guitar). A photo of the band can
be viewed at http://earacherecords.com/myspace/orderofennead1465.jpg

The band are currently hard at work in Audio Hammer Studios in Sanford,
Florida, recording their debut album with the help of Mark Lewis.

Commenting on the signing, Steve Asheim enthused:

"Order of Ennead are really psyched about our deal with Earache Records.
The possibilities afforded us by this deal are endless. So watch out for us
on the road and in stores very soon. I can't wait to get on tour with this
band and see what people think."

Commenting on the recording, Scott Patrick added:

"I am totally stoked to be picked up by Earache, their support in the
extreme/death/black/grind genre is unparalleled in my opinion. To that
point I know Earache is the right home for us! Working with Mark Lewis at
Audio Hammer is killer, that cat knows what metal is supposed to sound like
in the 21st century. Order of Ennead's music, lyric content, and live shows
will turn heads world-wide. I can't wait to tour for this act, showing the
masses just how extreme our delivery of the extreme metal genre can be."

GAMA BOMB POST TOUR REPORT

After recently completing a UK tour with EXODUS and EVILE, Irish thrashers
GAMA BOMB have now returned from their first ever European tour! Now back
home and recovering, the band have posted a tour report to bring you
up-to-date on the sort of antics that seem to happen wherever they go:

"We've returned. From our first European tour, from the wilds of central
Europe, from the dead: Pick one. If you haven't been paying attention, we'll
try to sum it up for you. Two weeks, 11 shows, a bunch of interviews, a
staggering amount of booze, over 5,000 kilometres travelled, God knows how
much salted meat choked down, and some of the best, greatest, weirdest times
of our 'career' (inverted commas are our own). We could prattle on about the
amazing gigs (for amazing they were, boys and girls) and all the cool places
we saw, but it's more interesting to write a big weird list of crap instead,
isn't it?"

Read the rest of the tour report at http://tinyurl.com/3tu2dn

album from Swedish art-rockers CULT OF LUNA - the hype is growing and the
story behind the album is certainly adding to the excitement.

Based on an actual journal found in an old mental home, ETERNAL KINGDOM

former patient as he tells the tale of how his wife came to be murdered and
of the mythical creatures he claims to have encountered during the time of
the harrowing event.

CULT OF LUNA guitarist JOHANNES PERSSON recently gave a track-by-track
explanation of the songs from the upcoming album. To hear JOHANNES
discussing the meanings behind the songs over exclusive clips from the songs
themselves, head to http://www.myspace.com/cultoflunaeternalkingdom

The fifth album from CULT OF LUNA, ETERNAL KINGDOM was recorded at Tonteknik
Studios in the band's hometown of Umea and was produced by MAGNUS LINDBERG.
The follow-up to 2006's P3 award-winning SOMEWHERE ALONG THE HIGHWAY,
ETERNAL KINGDOM is set to be a much heavier and darker affair than previous
albums.
