Impaled Nazarene - Live Album Delayed
Impaled Nazarene's Frontman Mika Luttinen has posted the following message on band's official website:
"Here is the update about our live album and let me tell you, somebody out there seem to be against this album a lot.
Original plan (as it was announced here earlier) was to record three shows in Italy. Things got, well, really fucked-up. Our first show was in Milan and we had flights via Paris with Alitalia. We arrive to Milan, our luggage does not. After spending (read fighting) hours there, we manage to get info that some of our luggage will arrive later that day. Well, we got some stuff but our guitars and bass remained in Paris.
We borrowed equipment from support band and did our best, the show itself was great, fantastic crowd. We did record it but something was wrong and we got only 8 drum tracks on tape, nothing else.
We said "fuck it, we still have two shows left". We arrive to Sicily next day and it turns out that the mixing console of the club is so dated that it does not have digital outputs for our recording gear. The same thing was in Ascoli, the last show, no digital outputs on the mixing console. We could not believe our bad luck. And this was just the beginning of this misery?
Well, we had a show in Stockholm, Sweden, a week later. We made sure that their mixing console was up-to-date, got an excellent backline and all was well. Until some cocksucker decides to take out electricity while we are on stage. We were near the end of our set and suddenly power is cut off. After ten minutes or so, power is back on and we do rest of our set. We get off stage and then our soundman breaks the news: We have exactly THREE songs on computer (digital recording, you see), rest was lost during power break. We were like what the fuck.
So we said, we do have two shows in Russia, let us record them. Great country to do a live album, insane audience. Once again we check all the shit to make sure that we can actually record both of the shows.
We meet everybody at Helsinki railway station and there comes our soundman without recording gear. We are like "what now?" and well, let´s just say that thanks to somebody (not our soundman), we did not get the gear we were supposed to get. Somebody fucked up big time. Off to Russia sans recording gear.
St. Petersburg show was really a fucking blast (even though we had to cut our settime because whole thing was running late), really a shame we couldn´t record it. But Moscow?well, here is a story for you:

Gorgoroth - Riots in El Salvador
The following was posted on the band's official website:
"Gorgoroth made the headlines in the major papers in Latin America after performing a show which created big riots in San Salvador. The audience got so extatic over the presence of the first black metal act visiting their country that the situation got totally out of control. The secutity and the police could not handle the people outside the venue so they had to call in the special forces "del cuerpo de Proteccion a Personalides Importantes" (PPI). When the PPI reached the venue the masses of people not getting a ticket for the already sold out show kicked in the entrancedoor and lots of fighting between the audience began. The audience started to kick in doors and toilets, several injuries occured and major damages to the venue. The PPI decided in the end to use gas on the audience to get the situation under control. When Gorgoroth entered the stage 30 security people had to be on stage preventing the audience to enter it. The fighting maintained through Gorgoroths performance and the PPI and the police had to hold the audience inside the venue with firearms to get the band in safety. Gorgoroth came from the incident without any injuries."

Vreid - Former Windir Members Releases Debut In US
Candlelight Records has set a January 25, 2005 U.S. release date for "Kraft", the debut album from Norway's Vreid (Norwegian for "wrath"). Formed earlier this year, the band features the surviving members of WINDIR (Hváll on bass, Steingrim on drums and Sture on vocals/guitar), disbanded due to the unexpected death of singer/founder Valfar.
"Kraft" was recorded during the summer at Hváll's Studio 1184 and was mixed at Subsonic Society Studio (Susperia, Windir, Red Harvest, Darkhrone) in Oslo.
Vreid's music is being described as a continuation of the sound and style Hváll had created with Windir and Ulcus, but with "its own personal sound ? a mixture of the ambience of Windir, the rawness of Norwegian black metal and the rocking groove of Motörhead." The lyrics are written both in Norwegian and English. Rounding out Vreid's lineup is a guitarist named Ese ? a close friend of the Vreid members for years, and co-engineer on Windir's "Likferd" album.
WINDIR, founded by Valfar in 1994, leave behind four recordings, all recorded for Head Not Found Records. The band graced stages at Inferno, Quart and Hole in the Sky European Festivals plus an appearance (and now only U.S. show) at the Milwaukee Metal Fest. The band were set to record their fifth album and first to receive worldwide release via Candlelight/Tabu Records before Valfar's death.
"Kraft" track listing:
01. Wrath of Mine
02. Raped by Light
03. Helvete
04. Unholy Water
05. Eldast, Utan Å Gro
06. Evig Pine
07. Empty
08. Songen Åt Fangen

Flowing Tears - Two Founding Members Dead!
On October 20, two founding members of the German goth metal band FLOWING TEARS, Björn Lorson and Christian Zimmer, died in a tragic car accident, according to a posting on the group's web site. "Even though they already left the band in '95 and '96 (Björn after the first demo tape 'Bijou' and Christian after 'Swansongs'), FLOWING TEARS may never have existed if they hadn't been," the band write. "We will keep you in our minds and hearts. These days we take a breath to listen to the tunes of songs such as 'Flowing Tears & Withered Flowers' or 'Waterbride' ? while mourning about two young people who had to die much too early. Rest in peace guys ? we will never forget you!"
FLOWING TEARS kicked off a European tour with SAMAEL late last month. The band are touring in support of their new album, "Razorbliss", which was released in March through Century Media Records. The follow-up to 2002's "Serpentine" was recorded at Woodhouse Studios in Hagen, Germany with producer Waldemar Sorychta (THE GATHERING, LACUNA COIL, SENTENCED, MOONSPELL) and is the band's first to feature vocalist Helen Vogt, who replaced Stefanie Duchêne last year.

Sonata Arctica - A Statement About Cancelled Shows
Statement about current events:
"On November 2nd we had a show in Paris, La Locomotive.
During the sound check everything was ok, and the day went by as usual, without any worries. When the starting act played, the air ventilation system we did not know about was turned on, blowing REALLY chilled air on the middle of the stage.
Tony complained about this from beginning of our show.
Sweating under the hot stage lighting and getting a cold air blowing at you for 1 1/2 hours will get you a flue, 100% sure. Despite the efforts of our own crew, the local people were unable or unwilling to turn this "wind" off. And it was not on during the soundcheck, so...The soldout house saw the first time anyone in Sonata has gone off stage between songs to get a longsleeve, because he's on goosebumps 'cause he's freezing on the stage...indoors...
On the following day Tony woke up with no speaking voice...
When we yet one more day later on Nov 4th arrived in Madrid, the situation felt a bit better, but before the soundcheck Tony started feeling he had fever. We tried a song in the soundcheck, but it was obvious we cannot play that night...this was a deep shock for the whole band. A local doctor checked out Tony and gave him something for the fever and his infected throat. The remaining members made a statement on stage about the situation, while Tony was sleeping in the bus.
Next morning in Barcelona we decided to play no matter what. Can't leave Spain without one single show! Pulling a show with medication on would propably mean cancelling the next show in Montpellier. We agreed on risking this after weighting all the pros and cons. There was no guarantee we could play in Montpellier anyway...The show was pure pain, but the fans were fantastic and it felt a good decision.
So today, on Saturday, November 6th we arrived to Montpellier, the show we had already announced we'd be forced to cancel. Tony needs to rest and recover before the last show together with Nightwish in Amsterdam and the four other headlining shows we have on the row after that. Playing in Montpellier would have been a BIG risk and we do not want to cancel any more shows!! A doctor checked Tony again, ordered medication and adviced not to do the show, but rather stay quiet and rest as long as possible.
We sadly apologize our fans and friends that had to leave Madrid and Montpellier venues without a show. It broke our hearts to see so many teary eyes...
We all think our fans deserve none less than 100% from us, and we are not able to deliver that currently. Hopefully everything will be ok when we reach Amsterdam.

"The song is definitely the most '80s we've done to date," guitarist Sami Vauhkonen said in a posting on the band's web site.

Elvenking - Band News Update
After the long wait, we can officially confirm Damnagoras' return in the band. The singer who left ELVENKING two years ago, has joined his fellows back in order to re-create the original heathen spirit and essence that bound every single member to each other. The band, after the release of their last album WYRD (recorded with a different singer, Kleid) entered a difficult period due to various reasons related to the musical direction to take, personal relations, business affairs, etc. Put in front of this situation, there was no choice for EK to keep on expressing themselves still being faithful to what the band was born for. Now that the original line-up is still together, things are going great and the songwriting process for the third album has been nearly completed!
After the release of Wyrd the contract between Elvenking and AFM records was about to end, but following the amazing results both for sales and critcs of the two albums, we're happy to announce that the band and AFM will keep on working together also for the next one!
Pre-production
The band has just finished recording a 6-track promo of the songs that will be included in the next Elvenking album, for pre-production and for future decisions.
Damnagoras about the songs: "This is the most incredible material I have ever heard and Elvenking will be back with strength and magic!" while Aydan states "I've never been so satisfied when it was to write new songs! This material will probably become the best ever written by the band!"
