MOTOROWL – release live video for “Beloved Whale”!

Leave a comment

Psychedelic doom rockers, MOTOROWL, just released a video for an alternative version of their song “Beloved Whale” from their latest album “Om Generator”! This version was recorded live at Violet Flame Studio in Gera, Germany.

The band comments: “The ‘Beloved Whale’ session was a big deal for us. We wanted to capture the energy of playing together because this is the only thing that we actually can do. So we borrowed some real nice equipment from friends and went into the Violet Flame Studio for 2 days to record a special version of this song on tape. We only had a few takes, so we focused on ourselves and filmed every single take we did. Every version was slightly different and we chose the most natural one.

Nerds only: we used a Marshall JMP from 1977, Marshall JCM 800 replica, Fender Bassman Replica, Pearl Vorg 101, a 70s Orange cab, an old Gretsch drum set (26 inch bassdrum!), a Hammond Portable Organ with Leslie and a Roland RE301 Tape Echo for the e-piano. Recorded on a .Tascam tape recorder with a bunch of vintage Neumann microphones.”

MOTOROWL just recently announced they will be supporting DIE APOKALYPTISCHEN REITER on their upcoming tour throughout Germany, Austria and Switzerland in October/November 2017!

Leave a comment

As second song from the forthcoming third VALLENFYRE album, “Fear Those Who Fear Him”, the band has launched the track “An Apathetic Grave”. Guitarist/vocalist Gregor Mackintosh (Paradise Lost) comments:
“By total contrast to the previously released track ‘Kill All Your Masters,’ this one is an extremely miserable, crushing doom song about a man reaching the end of his life and reflecting on the futility of it all.”

DREAM EVIL – Launch “Creature Of The Night” single; “SIX” album out next week!

Leave a comment

Swedish powerhouse Heavy Metal group DREAM EVIL are getting closer to the release of their sixth album, aptly titled “SIX”, coming out next week, more precisely on Friday May 26th, 2017 via Century Media Records.
Therefore, the album’s third single, the melodic and epic “Creature Of The Night” is being launched today and can be checked out here:

DREAM EVIL commented about “Creature Of The Night” as follows: “When we chose from all recorded songs the ones to be released on the main album, we summoned a Heavy Metal Jury which ranked the songs. From this ranking the top 12 songs were set for SIX. The song “Creature Of The Night” got the highest ranking from the H.M.J., so it was a no-brainer to have this song as a single.”

Previously, the album’s opening track “Dream Evil” and the song “Antidote” were debuted with videos by Patric Ullaeus / www.revolver.se (In Flames, Lacuna Coil, Dimmu Borgir, Arch Enemy, etc.) here:
