SOULFLY Premieres Music Video For "World Scum"!


Listen up Metaleros! The first video from Soulfly's upcoming album 'Enslaved' has been released for your viewing pleasure! The video was conceptualized by Max Cavalera and video director Thomas Mignone (Mudvayne, Slipknot, Avenged Sevenfold, Morbid Angel) and produced through his production company DOOM Incorporated. Mignone filmed the video in and around Los Angeles. Various scenes depicting humanity's perspectives of some of the world's significant historical events - such as the attack on the Russian Czar by nihilists, the mass production of Zyklon B poisons, the Gulag prisons, the assassination of the president, and a final showdown between Jesus and the Anti-christ - are seen and reflected in the song's lyrics. The cinematography is by Peter Leininger; the special efx makeup is by Maggie Hunter, the production design is by Hanna Dryland, and digital compositing & post-production is by editor/visual efx artist Christopher Neil.



Soulfly's NEW album entitled 'Enslaved' will be released on March 13, 2012 via longtime label Roadrunner Records, which has been Soulfly's home for the course of its career. The label has also been Cavalera's home for the duration of his career, which began in the '80s as a member of Sepultura, who essentially rewrote the rules of Heavy Music when they arrived on the scene; Max continues to do the same today.

Late lost month, Soulfly revealed the final tracklisting for 'Enslaved'. Today, the band has unleashed a video of the band discussing the production process of their NEW album. You can now watch the video below.

"Enslaved" standard CD features the following 11 tracks:

01. Resistance
02. World Scum
03. Intervention
04. Gladiator
05. Legions

OPETH's Mikael Åkerfeldt & PORCUPINE TREE'S Steven Wilson Form STORM CORROSION!


Storm Corrosion is the long-discussed and highly anticipated collaboration between two of the modern progressive Rock scene's most innovative and multi-talented artists: Mikael Åkerfeldt of Opeth and Porcupine Tree’s Steven Wilson. The pair will release Storm Corrosion on April 24 via Roadrunner Records.

A little background information on the genesis of this project: Åkerfeldt and Wilson have been friends since the late '90s, when Wilson co-produced Opeth’s revered 'Blackwater Park' album. Over the years, they’d often spoken of working on a project together, but it wasn’t until recently that they managed to make something happen, when Mikael flew over to visit Steven in the U.K. and they ended up in Wilson’s home studio throwing ideas around. That visit was the nascence of a whole self-titled album, written and produced by the pair, and mixed by Wilson.

The sound of Storm Corrosion can best be described as enchanting, orchestral, ambient, epic (half the album’s tracks clock in around the 10-minute mark) and nothing short of surprising to the NEW ear. However, the musicians’ respective fan bases will be primed to appreciate the NEW output, with Wilson’s recent solo album, 'Grace for Drowning', and Opeth’s 'Heritage' having brought them to a logical place to understand Storm Corrosion. This eponymous collection is almost viewed as one side of a musical triangle.

Says Wilson, “If you'd asked me three months ago about the music, I would have said, 'Expect the last thing you would expect.' But actually, now that Heritage and Grace for Drowning have come out, I don't think it's going to be that much of a shock to people, because it's almost like a third part of the trilogy, in a way. If anything, it's even more orchestral, even more stripped down, even more dark, twisted and melancholic… but it certainly feels like it comes from the same place as 'Heritage' and 'Grace for Drowning', which indeed it does because it was written during the same period.”

“Some of the music on this record I think is the most beautiful music I have participated on ever,” adds Åkerfeldt. “There's some magical sections on there. Musically I think we've created something earthy, a bit frightening, exhausting, profound and rather intense. All at the same time. I can safely say I don't know any other band or artist that sounds anything like Storm Corrosion. I guess that was also one of our goals, so to speak.”

Roadrunner Senior VP of A&R, Monte Conner welcomed Storm Corrosion to the Roadrunner family, commenting, “I am honored to have the Roadrunner logo on the Storm Corrosion album. Steven Wilson and Mikael Åkerfeldt have demonstrated time and time again that they are two of the truest and most important artists working today, and it is not often that I get to work with musicians of this caliber. This album is a beautiful piece of work that will appeal to fans of Steven and Mikael’s past records, while at the same time exploring new avenues for both artists."

KORN To Appear On "Jimmy Kimmel Live" TONIGHT!


Fresh off the hugely successful first leg of dates in support of their recently released album 'The Path of Totality', Berkley California's KORN will be taking over ABC's "Jimmy Kimmel Live" tonight (February 2)!

Korn are set to return to the road for the second leg of "the Path of Totality Tour". The NEW batch of dates kick off on February 23 in Detroit, running through the Midwest before heading back West and wrapping up on March 4 in San Francisco. Kill the Noise will provide support on certain dates, while Korn's own Jonathan Davis will also debut his brand new DJ set as his J Devil alter ego.

Special pre-sale tickets and VIP packages will be available starting Wednesday, January 18 at 3 PM local time at the link below. Tickets for most shows go on sale to the general public this weekend.

'The Path of Totality' is another experimental chapter in Korn's rich canon and history. The album found the band shifting gears, taking a bit of a creative left turn (something they've been known to do throughout the course of their two decade career) and exploring thrilling new territory with some of the hottest emerging producers and talent in the burgeoning electronic scene. The album debuted Top 10 on the Billboard charts and was met with universal critical applause, thanks to the band' s ability to remain fresh and relevant while collaborating with electronic producers Skrillex, 12th Planet, Kill the Noise, Excision, Flinch, Noisia, Datsik, Downlink, Feed Me and more.

Korn were recently profiled in the New York Times' Sunday section, celebrated for their ability to embrace dubstep, which some have deemed "the new punk." 'The Path of Totality' has garnered incredible praise and buzz, while being featured in NME, SPIN, Electronic Musician, Rollingstone.com, Hype Machine, and even being named “Album of the Year” by Revolver Magazine. LA Weekly raved about Korn’s recent record release show, while calling it as “unique a show as I’ve ever seen.”

The dates for the second leg of "the Path of Totality tour" are as follows:

- Feb. 23: Detroit, MI at Fillmore*
- Feb. 24: Chicago, IL at Congress Theater
- Feb. 25: Milwaukee, WI at Eagles Ballroom
- Feb. 27: Denver, CO at First Bank Center*
- Feb. 28: Salt Lake City, UT at The Complex *

MEGADETH Gets Turned Down At Madison Square Garden, But Manage To Shred The Audience To Pieces!


This past weekend, the 2012 version of Gigantour took over The Theater at Madison Square Garden! This time around Dave Mustaine from Megadeth, who is the creator of Gigantour, brought with him Motörhead, Volbeat, and Lacuna Coil! The sold out show, which welcomed over 6,000 headbangers, had a lot of ups and downs! While the bands all performed their very best, the volume for all four bands was too low for such a big show. As a result, many concertgoers felt ripped off! We can't blame them! Heavy Music is meant to be loud and proud.

After a stellar set from the Kings of Old School Metal, Motörhead, Megadeth took center stage and without needing to warm up started delivering the goods to a very hungry crowd. While it is obvious that Mustaine does not have the same vocal power that he used to have when he was a youngster, he still has the guitar skills that placed him in the Heavy Music spotlight many years ago. But lets not forget about the talented musicians that he is lucky enough to call his bandmates. Lets face it, its real hard to find a band that is as tight as Megadeth. Not only are bassist Dave Ellefson and drummer Shawn Drover in perfect synch when it comes to the grooving machine behind Megadeth, but the shredding skills of guitarist Chris Broderick compliment the bands overall sound perfectly.


Some of the higlights of Megadeth's set included: a duet between Dave Mustaine and Cristina Scabbia, the two very talented musicians joined forces and sang together "A Tout Le Monde" (see the video below). Another epic moment of the night was when Mustaine brought his 14 year old daughter on stage and the entire crowd sang her happy birthday! It was very cool to see Mustaine to pay tribute to his daughter in front of 6,000 maniacs. Our only complains about Megadeth's set were that their set was too short and that the volume wasn't loud enough. Apparently, those who were sitting all the way on top couldn't hear a thing!

Megadeth's setlist - New York City (1/28/2012):

1) Trust
2) Wake Up Dead
3) Hangar 18
4) Sweating Bullets
5) Angry Again
6) Public Enemy No. 1
7) Whose Life (Is It Anyways?)
8) Guns, Drugs & Money
9) A Tout Le Monde (with Cristina Scabbia)
10) Symphony Of Destruction
11) Peace Sells (Dave sang Happy Birthday to his daughter)

Encore:

12) Holy Wars... The Punishment Due

Soulfly Reveal Album Cover For 'Enslaved' - NEW Lineup Video Available!


Today, Soulfly revealed the album artwork for 'Enslaved', a brand NEW Soulfly album, which will be their eighth overall. While many bands barely make it to a third album, the Max Cavalera-led collective is still going strong two decades deep. 2012 also marks the band's 15th anniversary of making a tribally-influenced Metallic racket and what better way to celebrate than with a NEW record? The album will be released via longtime label Roadrunner Records, which has been Soulfly's home for the course of its career. The label has also been Cavalera's home for the duration of his career, which began in the '80s as a member of Sepultura, who essentially rewrote the rules of Heavy Music when they arrived on the scene; Max continues to do the same today.

The song remains insane for Soulfly, as does the lineup. The powerhouse lineup features Max and guitar dynamo Marc Rizzo (who will be performing this weekend in Brooklyn, NY with his solo band at the 'Holiday Tribute Show for Dimebag Darrell', details below), with Static-X's Tony Campos taking up the bass. The lineup is rounded out by drummer David Kinkade, a new school, extreme skinsman whose brutality behind the kit brings a new flavor to the band.

'Enslaved', which is set to be released on March 13, 2012, was recorded at Tallcat Studios in Phoenix, Arizona and was produced by Zeuss, the seasoned knob twiddler behind some of the most notable bands in Metal today, such as Shadows Fall, Hatebreed, The Red Chord and more. Cavalera also shared production duties.

As is customary with Soulfly, the band will introduce some new and unexpected elements into the mix, including a guest violinist. Soulfly also collaborates with two Metal veterans: Dez Fafara of Devildriver and Travis Ryan of Cattle Decapitation. With Dez and Max sharing a longtime connection through the Roadrunner family, it was only a matter of time before Fafara guested on a Soulfly album. Meanwhile, Ryan said it was "an honor to receive a call from someone you had pictures of on your wall as a kid."

Cavalera also wrote a song "Revengeance" about his slain stepson Dana, whose death was the catalyst for the creation of Soulfly. He partners with his sons Igor and Richie on vocals, while his other son Zyon plays drums. It is the first time Max has performed with three of his sons.

The band tracked 14 songs, 11 of which will be on the record, with the other three being made available for the special edition.

Track titles are as follows:

-Resistance
- World Scum
- Intervention
- Gladiator
- Legions
- American Steel
- Redemption of Man By God
- Treachery
- Plata O Plomo
- Revengeance
- Chains
- Slave
- Bastards
- Soulfly VIII

Please note this is not the final track sequencing.


The album is due out in March 13, 2012. It follows 2010's "Omen".

Korn Announce Second Leg Of 'The Path Of Totality Tour' - Jonathan Davis To Debut As DJ!


Fresh off the hugely successful first leg of dates in support of their recently released album 'The Path of Totality', Korn are returning to the road for the second leg of "the Path of Totality Tour". The NEW batch of dates kick off on February 23 in Detroit, running through the Midwest before heading back West and wrapping up on March 4 in San Francisco. Kill the Noise will provide support on certain dates, while Korn's own Jonathan Davis will also debut his brand new DJ set as his J Devil alter ego.

'The Path of Totality' is another experimental chapter in Korn's rich canon and history. The album found the band shifting gears, taking a bit of a creative left turn (something they've been known to do throughout the course of their two decade career) and exploring thrilling new territory with some of the hottest emerging producers and talent in the burgeoning electronic scene. The album debuted Top 10 on the Billboard charts and was met with universal critical applause, thanks to the band' s ability to remain fresh and relevant while collaborating with electronic producers Skrillex, 12th Planet, Kill the Noise, Excision, Flinch, Noisia, Datsik, Downlink, Feed Me and more.

Korn were recently profiled in the New York Times' Sunday section, celebrated for their ability to embrace dubstep, which some have deemed "the new punk." 'The Path of Totality' has garnered incredible praise and buzz, while being featured in NME, SPIN, Electronic Musician, Rollingstone.com, Hype Machine, and even being named “Album of the Year” by Revolver Magazine. LA Weekly raved about Korn’s recent record release show, while calling it as “unique a show as I’ve ever seen.”

Soulfly Recruits Director Thomas Mignone For "World Scum" Video!

Max Cavalera's Soulfly, announced today that they will be recruiting director Thomas Mignone for the production of their video for their NEW song entitled "World Scum". The track is part of Soulfly's eighth studio album 'Enslaved' (set to be released on March 13, 2012 via Roadrunner Records), which was recorded at Tallcat Studios in Phoenix, Arizona and was produced by Zeuss, the seasoned knob twiddler behind some of the most notable bands in Metal today, such as Shadows Fall, Hatebreed, The Red Chord and more. Cavalera also shared production duties. This is what director Thomas Mignone had to say about this:

"It's an honor to receive a call from someone you had pictures of on your wall as a kid asking you to be on a NEW album of theirs. I literally had a picture of Max [Cavalera, Soulfly mainman] and Gloria [Max's wife and manager] holding [Gloria's son] Richie in her arms that I ripped out of a copy of Metal Maniacs on my wall when I was 15 or 16. Now they're asking for my artistic hand in one of their creations; [it] just doesn't get much more surreal than that. Very honored and the song is very 'Death Metal-ish' and completely crushes. Happy to be a part of it!"

Over the weekend, it was announced that Cavalera will be hosting an online video chat on Sunday, January 15th.
