So with Suicidal Tendencies‘/Cyco Miko‘s forthcoming album, they’ve released a video — well, an audio track via their YouTube channel — of the song All the Way. The album, as mentioned is called The Mad Mad Muir’s Musical Tour, and is being released under Cyco Miko, not as ST.

This track is actually a bit of a change in direction, not that they haven’t done that several times before, but this is quite a different sound. But they manage to pull off a different sound while still sounding familiar. This track has more of a metal sound than I’d expect from a Cyco Miko track, which has typically been Muir’s punkier outlet. There’s none of the palm-muted galloping style riffage that I’d expect out of ST either — it’s really quite a different sound. But some of the weirder squealing, wavy guitar sounds remind me of Infectious Grooves.

Here’s an interview with Jari on tour in Austria. This was recorded at the Metalfest festival on May 29. The funniest bit is when the forthcoming album Time is compared to Duke Nukem Forever.

Alestorm have released a video for the track Shipwrecked from their upcoming album, Back Through Time.

They played this at the gig in Auckland last week, which I must say was the best live show I’ve been to in a long damn time. Back Through Time has a June 3rd release date in Europe and late June for the US.

Chrome Division, the Norwegian rock band featuring Shagrath of Dimmu Borgir, have released a video from their latest album 3rd Round Knockout. Now while this is their third album (hence the clever name), I’ve never really given them a chance before. Partly because I’m not a fan of Dimmu Borgir, and a big part of the marketing of this band is riding on his coat-tails.

But Greg, my purveyor of fine metal, mentioned them recently after this album’s release. And of course, he has such fine taste that I gave them a shot. I must say, Chrome Division are pretty damned good. Imagine if you will, some Norwegian fellows who have been trapped for decades in the snow and ice, only ever having heard the sound of screeching vocals and buzzing guitars from iced up, crusted over amps. And then picture them going to LA and hearing Mötley Crüe for the first time in their lives. Naturally, their world is turned upside down. And from thenforth, they proclaim a new union of metal goodness from opposite poles of the earth.

Chrome Division is the love child of that union. Blackened Hair Metal. Awwww yeeaaahhh…

Earlier this month, a very dedicated fan of Razorwyre made a trio of videos for their song Operation Market Garden. The song is off their EP (which is available on the Razorwyre website for free download) titled Coming Out.

The videos include footage off the movie A Bridge Too Far. They’re the same video, but one includes Polish subtitles, and the other includes German subtitles.

The English version:

Hilarious. During Manowar‘s soundcheck at a recent Cleveland, Ohio show, they managed to blow the power, affecting an entire city block. They had to bring in generators, as it took 24 hours to fix.

A video “field report” on the situation was posted:

Of course, everyone knows that other bands play, Manowar kill. So I’d call that a win.
