Angra - "Insania" (live video)

Insania
Will trap you there
Insania
Meet the dead

I was just a normal guy in this crazy world
Strange like most everyone around me
Struggling to survive my senseless days
Till I found this curious gateway

Dragged inside I thought I'd go
insane
I tried to reach the doors
But I knew it was too late

Insania
Insania will trap you there
Reality is torn apart
The living ones will meet the dead
Insania
Where gravity won't hold you down
And everyone is free to fly
When passing through the open gates

It's a sight you can't conceive, in a dream reality
It's a space that blows your mind when you enter
Once you're there you'll know there is no return
And the walls keep falling down in front of me

Terrified my feet had no control
Try your way out, there's nowhere to run

Insania
Insania will trap you there
Reality is torn apart
The living ones will meet the dead
Insania
Where gravity won't hold you down
And everyone is free to fly
When passing through the open gates

Imagine a world where we walk
High above the ground
You'll find all the cities floating in the clouds
Where people are transparent
Our minds are transcendent
We all will be blessed until the end

Insania, Insania
Please let me in
Behind your walls
Insania
Insania will trap you there
Reality is torn apart
The living ones will meet the dead
Insania

Where gravity won't hold you down
And everyone is free to fly
When passing through the open gates

Kreator - "Violent Revolution" (Bloodstock 2017)

Society failed to tolerate me
And I have failed to tolerate society
Still I can’t find what you adore
Inside I hear the echoes of an inner war
Nothing can take the horror from me
Your sick world the loss of all morality
My hate has grown as strong as my confusion
My only hope my only solution
is a Violent Revolution

Violent Revolution, Violent Revolution
Reason for the people to destroy

I do not need a cause for my rage
I just despise the nature of the human race
When all I see is repulsion and hate
Violence becomes my only friend, my saving grace
When love is lost beyond your control
A pale shadow of lust can not enlight your soul
So keep your ice cold bitter illusions
I don’t need your empty world my only solution
is a Violent Revolution

Violent Revolution, Violent Revolution
Reason for the people to destroy

Beauty is no more it’s all gone
And utopia will not come
Trust I can not feel, only pain
And my burning mind has gone insane

Παρακολουθήστε πως απέδωσαν "ζωντανά" ένα από τα πλέον γνωστά τους τραγούδια ("Violent Revolution") οι Kreator στο Bloodstock Open Air Metal Festival το 2017. Το εν λόγω τραγούδι το πρωτακούσαμε στον ομότιτλο δίσκο των Γερμανών thrashers που κυκλοφόρησε το φθινόπωρο του 2001...

Stud - "Tired" (lyric video)

I'm gonna need more hours
To make my day complete
I've gotta find a reason
For being always late

No time to loose control
Just see that everything's alright
My tired eyes
I slow down tomorrow

Tired, I know that I need some rest
Higher, I'm walking on razor's edge
Desire, I don't wanna compromise
Tired, one day I will pay the price

I need to be on my way

I've gotta beat the deadline
And work each day and night
I never make the bedtime
No sleep until I die

I've got to check my phone
Make sure that everything's alright
My tired eyes
Can’t wait ’till tomorrow

Tired, I know that I need some rest
Higher, I'm walking on razor's edge
Desire, I don't wanna compromise
Tired, one day I will pay the price

I wish I could turn back the time

I’m falling down
Face to the ground

Everything's alright
My tired eyes
Can’t wait ’till tomorrow

Tired, I know that I need some rest
Higher, I'm walking on razor's edge
Desire, I don't wanna compromise
Tired, one day I will pay the price

Tired, I know that I need some rest
Higher, I'm walking on razor's edge
Desire, I don't wanna compromise
Tired, one day I will pay the price

Tired

Οι Stud σχηματίσθηκαν στην Φινλανδία το μακρινό 1986. Παρέμειναν ενεργοί για μία τριετία κυκλοφορώντας ένα single δύο τραγουδιών στην μητρική τους γλώσσα ("Mä haluun elää / Viimeinen yö") το 1986. Το 1989 η μπάντα διαλύθηκε για να επιστρέψει το 2013 συνεχίζοντας μέχρι τις ημέρες μας.

Στην δεύτερη θητεία τους οι Stud έχουν κυκλοφορήσει τέσσερις "ολοκληρωμένους" δίσκους (συν μπόλικα singles). Ο τέταρτος και πλέον πρόσφατος τιτλοφορείται "War of Power" και "βγήκε" ψηφιακά τον περασμένο Νοέμβριο. Σε cd αναμένεται τις προσεχείς ημέρες.

Άξιο αναφοράς το ότι από την αρχική σύνθεση της μπάντας έχουν παραμείνει όλοι πλην του μπασίστα, την θέση του οποίου καλύπτει από το 2018 ο Jari Behm. Πρόκειται για τον μπασίστα των Stratovarius κατά τα έτη 1992 και 1993, χωρίς να κυκλοφορήσει κάτι μαζί τους...

Angel Sword - "Hardliner" (Live at Bar Rock Bear 2020)

Never cared for the powers that be
somewhere out on the streets
the line’s crossed and out of reach
i can’t find it

Don’t try to understand
I’ll never be the kind of man
to answer to a higher plan
i hardline it

How long
has it been that i’ve been gone
how long can it go on

I’m never coming home
from the danger zone
god knows i tried
but something tells me no

I’m not turning back
never coming home

Are you ready to face the heat?
are you willing to bleed?
you pay the price of a killing breed
no compromises

This path is a winding road
it goes on, never coming home
every man has to walk alone
so hardline it

How long
has it been that i’ve been gone
and still i must go on

There ain’t no turning back
i’m already home

Οι Angel Sword μας έρχονται από την Φινλανδία.

Η φιλμογράφηση του τραγουδιού "Hardliner" πραγματοποιήθηκε κατά την διάρκεια της "ζωντανής" εμφάνισης της Φινλανδικής μπάντας στο μπαρ Rock Bear της πόλης Βάνταα (Vantaa, Finland) στις 16 Οκτωβρίου 2020. Στα τύμπανα βλέπουμε τον Alexander Depraved, ο οποίος αντικατέστησε πέρυσι τον St. Peter (κατά κόσμο Matti Pekkanen) που αποχώρησε το 2019...

Diamond Head - "Rat Bat Blue" (Deep Purple cover)

Hey baby,
What you gonna do
When the lights go up on you?
What's your name,
Can I drive you home?

Sweet woman,
Are you all alone?
You're the one for me
I'm gonna keep you busy as a bee,
Could bee, could be
Rat bat blue

Now, get up woman, don't be slow
It's getting late and I wanna go
No cause for acting big
Got to love, got to live
Stick around with me
I'm gonna show you things
You never thought you'd see,
You see
Rat bat blue
You're so fine

Get out! You didn't understand
I'm a hard loving man
No way you can satisfy
The way you look, the way you lie
And when you shut the door
Make sure I don't see you 'round here no more
Rat bat blue
Alright

Τον Οκτώβριο του 1980 κυκλοφορεί ένα δίσκος με ολόλευκο εξώφυλλο χωρίς τίτλο. Κάποιοι το ονόμασαν "The White Album", αλλά τελικά επικράτησε ως τίτλος το "Lightning to the Nations" λόγω του εναρκτήριου τραγουδιού. Το ντεμπούτο των Diamond Head είναι γεγονός.

Καταιγιστικοί hard & heavy ρυθμοί, η φωνή του Sean Harris, το μεγάλο ταλέντο του Brian Tatler που αστράφτει, ριφάρες, τραγουδάρες (όλες)! Το "Am I Evil?" έγινε πασίγνωστο λόγω της διασκευής των Metallica, ενώ το "Sucking My Love" είναι το "Whole Lotta love" των 80ς.

"Lightning to the Nations 2020". Πρόκειται για την επετειακή (για τα σαράντα χρόνια) έκδοση του ντεμπούτου των Diamond Head επανηχογραφημένο (με την τωρινή σύνθεση της μπάντας) και περιέχει τα επτά τραγούδια της αρχικής έκδοσης συν τέσσερις διασκευές σε μουσικά κομμάτια των Led Zeppelin, Deep Purple, Judas Priest και Metallica...

Δελτίο τύπου: «With Diamond Head having featured so heavily in Metallica’s early career, the cover of ‘No Remorse’ seems especially appropriate. When Diamond Head first released Lightning To The Nations 40 years ago in 1980, few could have predicted the importance it would carry with regards to heavy metal’s new wave and sound. Stacked and packed with riffs, Lightning To The Nations would be one of the prime catalysts for a movement known as the New Wave of British Heavy Metal (NWOBHM).

Re-imagined, re-recorded and re-born in 2020, Diamond Head’s forthcoming 40-year celebration of their genre-defining debut album is a scintillating shot of fresh metal energy. With Lightning To The Nations 2020 listeners experience not only the rare phenomenon of crisp, fresh and new sounding songs with very little of the obvious original elements altered, they will also be treated to four supreme cover versions… And in prime position stands Metallica’s ‘No Remorse’.

Recorded over several sessions between various locations, from France to band members’ home studios, Lightning To The Nations 2020 central hub was Andersen’s Raw Sound Studios in London. It’s where Brian and Abbz did the guitars in February and March of this year, and then with the COVID-19 chaos striking, Andersen worked on the album between April and July, with Tatler’s watchful ear inspecting final mixes and tweaks in early August before sending off to mastering at Metropolis Studios in London.

This edition of the album sees Diamond Head spreading their wings and creating the heaviest of homages also to Led Zeppelin, Judas Priest and Deep Purple. Lightning To The Nations 2020 (November 27th 2020, Silver Lining Music). Available in multiple formats, special D2C bundles, including a limited edition autographed ‘No Remorse’ poster.»

Apple Sin - "Blood Brothers" (Brazilian Tribute to Iron Maiden)

And if you're taking a walk through the garden of life
What do you think you'd expect you would see?
Just like a mirror reflecting the moves of your life
And in the river reflections of me

Just for a second a glimpse of my father I see
And in a movement he beckons to me
And in a moment the memories are all that remain
And all the wounds are reopening again

We're blood brothers, we're blood brothers
We're blood brothers, we're blood brothers

And as you look all around at the world in dismay
What do you see, do you think we have learned
Not if you're taking a look at the war torn affray
Out in the streets where the babies are burned

We're blood brothers, we're blood brothers
We're blood brothers, we're blood brothers

There are times when I feel I'm afraid for the world
There are times I'm ashamed of us all
When you're floating on all the emotion you feel
And reflecting the good and the bad.

Will we ever know what the answer to life really is?
Can you really tell me what life is?
Maybe all the things that you know that are precious to you
Could be swept away by fate's own hand

We're blood brothers. we're blood brothers
We're blood brothers, we're blood brothers

When you think that we've used all our chances
And the chance to make everything right,
Keep on making the same old mistakes
Makes untipping the balance so easy
When we're living our lives on the edge
Say a prayer on the book of the dead

We're blood brothers, we're blood brothers
We're blood brothers, we're blood brothers

And if you're taking a walk through the garden of life

Πέρυσι η δισκογραφική εταιρεία Secret Services Records κυκλοφόρησε τον δίσκο "Somewhere In Brazil - The Brazilian Tribute To Iron Maiden". Όπως μαρτυρά ο τίτλος πρόκειται για album (διπλό cd) διασκευών σε τραγούδια των Iron Maiden από Βραζλιλιάνικα συγκροτήματα. 26 μπάντες, αντίστοιχες διασκευές.

Ανάμεσά τους και οι Apple Sin, οι οποίοι επέλεξαν το "Blood Brothers", το οποίο γνωρίσαμε στον δίσκο των Βρετανών metallers "Brave New World" που κυκλοφόρησε τον Μάιο του 2000 και σηματοδότησε την (δισκογραφική) επιστροφή του Bruce Dickinson στην μπάντα.

Οι Rage in My Eyes μας έρχονται από την Βραζιλία. Δημιουργήθηκαν το 2012 κι έχουν κυκλοφορήσει έναν "ολοκληρωμένο" δίσκο ("Apple Sin" Φεβρουάριος 2017) κι ένα ep ("Fire Star" Ιούνιος 2015)...

Immortal Sÿnn - "Novus Ordo Seclorum" (lyric video)

Thrash!

War is peace and freedom’s slavery
Ignorance is strength in this new reality
The wars, no end, they send us off to die
The lines they feed, just propagated lies

Pollute the skies, soft-kill Democide
The Earth in which we live
How long will it survive?
False flag attacks,
It’s all part of their plan
To separate us from our fellow Man

The powers that control,
We will force them to their knees
We will tear apart the veil
So that everybody sees
Educate the masses,
Show them we’ve been led astray
Put the power back in our hands
So that we can seize the day

(FIGHT!) (TONIGHT!)
We’ll take down the Powers and restore our human rights
(WE!) (DON’T NEED!)
Rulers that enslave us for their own ill gain and greed

Oh oh oh oh Novus Ordo Seclorum,
Natum malorum terrae in camera
Oh oh oh oh Iesu iuva!

They debase this fiat currency
For profit and for gain, for whose advantage anyway?
End the Fed, a massive Ponzi scheme
That’s right, you heard, this ain’t a fuckin’ dream

Puppet regime, you think you’re really free?
“They” control our leaders and all this insanity
They poison the food, Monsanto’s really swell
Our DNA will be fucked right to hell!

The powers that control, we will force them to their knees
We will tear apart the veil so that everybody sees
Educate the masses, show them we’ve been led astray
Put the power back in our hands so that we can seize the day

(FIGHT!) (TONIGHT!)
We’ll take down the Powers and restore our human rights
(WE!) (DON’T NEED!)
Rulers that enslave us for their own ill gain and greed

Oh oh oh oh Novus Ordo Seclorum,
Natum malorum terrae in camera

Oh oh oh oh Iesu iuva, nobis iuva!

All the demons, they’re trying to bring us down
But We The People, will not be pushed around
Stand tall in defense of liberty
Don’t let the New Way force it out
‘Cuz there ain’t no doubt that we’ll fuck ‘em up
’Til they see what we’re all about

All the power, belongs to the brave and free
Look around, I’m talkin’ ‘bout you and me
The Revolution won’t be televised
We’re gonna fight to make history
Now’s the time, the future’s in our hands
We’re gonna fight for liberty

Οι Immortal Sÿnn μας έρχονται από την πρωτεύουσα του Κολοράντο (Ντένβερ). Heavy metal μπάντα η οποία σχηματίσθηκε το 2004, διαλύθηκε δύο χρόνια αργότερα κι επανήλθε πριν από εννέα έτη. Μας παρουσιάζεται κάπως έτσι:

Kramp - "Gods of Death" (album stream)

Οι Kramp μας έρχονται από την πρωτεύουσα της Ισπανίας. Δημιουργήθηκαν το 2010 κι έπρεπε να περιμένουν μία δεκαετία για να κυκλοφορήσουν ("ολοκληρωμένο") δίσκο, ο οποίος φέρει τον τίτλο "Gods Of Death" και "βγήκε" στα τέλη του περασμένου Νοέμβρη...

Bio: «The band was founded by Mina & Lap circa 2010 and after many line ups, the band releases the EP "Wield Revenge" in 2016". After many line up changes in between, and with Sara C. on guitars and Albertt on drums, it's in 2020 when their debut album is release, entitled “Gods of Death”.»

Glenn Hughes - "Burn" (Milan 2015)

The sky is red, I don't understand
Past midnight I still see the land
People are saying the woman is damned
She makes you burn with a wave of her hand

The city's ablaze, the town's on fire
The woman's flames are reaching higher
We were fools, we called her a liar
All I hear is
"Burn!"

I didn't believe she was the devil's sperm
She said, "Curse you all, you'll never learn"
"When I leave there's no return"
The people laughed till she said, "Burn!"

Warning came, no one cared
Earth was shaking, we stood and stared
When it came no one was spared
Still I hear
"Burn!"

You know we had no time
We could not even try
You know we had no time

You know we had no time
We could not even try
You know we had no time

The sky is red, I don't understand
Past midnight I still see the land
People are saying the woman is damned
She makes you burn with a wave of her hand

Warning came, no one cared
Earth was shaking, we stood and stared
When it came no one was spared
Still I hear
"Burn!"

Προ εξαετίας, το 2015, ο Glenn Hughes πραγματοποίησε μία μίνι Ευρωπαϊκή περιοδεία. Μαζί του ο Doug Aldrich (βλ. Whitesnake, Dio, Revolution Saints, The Dead Daisies κλπ) στην κιθάρα και ο Pontus Engborg στα τύμπανα. Ανάμεσα στους σταθμούς της περιοδείας και το Μιλάνο της Ιταλίας στις 15 Σεπτεμβρίου.

Arida Vortex - "Small Toy Soldier" (live 2020, multicam)

Bankster's knocking at your door
You have seen it all before
Take your credit, rate seems fine
But you crossed the dangerous line

Lost in illusions
Trapped in race for stuff
Get your illusions
(You’ll) never get enough

Just a small toy soldier
Growing older, working day by day
Hamster in a wheel
You pay your bills from cradle to the grave

New apartment, perfect car
Seems you live like superstar
But the repo-man is near
Pay your debts right now, right here

Lost in illusions
Trapped in race for stuff
Get your illusions
(You’ll) never get enough

Just a small toy soldier
Growing older working day by day
Hamster in a wheel
You pay your bills from cradle to the grave
