The highly awaited new concept Angra album, ØMNI, has just been released on earMUSIC and the band celebrated the release with a brand new video! The track chosen was "War Horns". You can watch the prog/power metallers in action right here and don't forget to check out their 9th studio album ØMNI.
The way the drummer holds the sticks annoys me greatly...
You shouldn't check out Mark Zonder's drumming in this then...

"Information is not knowledge.
Knowledge is not wisdom.
Wisdom is not truth.
Truth is not beauty.
Beauty is not love.
Love is not music.
Music is THE BEST."
It's a wonder how so amazing and skilled musicians can do so average and uninspired music.
I more or less agree, I miss old Angra, I listened to them for the first time back in 1998, when Fireworks came out. That was a treat back then. I must be getting old or something...

Well, I know it shouldn't bother me; I even know that Virgil Donati plays with the drums held like that - but it's still an issue. To me, it doesn't visually fit the metal style of playing at all, but I guess that's a technicality I can ignore. I don't have anything to say about the song, by the way, it's decent - and the sticks held in the 'jazzy' way bothered me slightly.

Looks like the traditional grip technique, its actually very common among technical players in jazz etc.
It's a nice song. It's my first time listening to Angra so I can't say much about Kiko's absence, but you gotta give credit for the black dude's hair - It's perfect for headbanging.
