DOOM.

Den beiden Demo Songs (von mehr Songs weiß ich nichts) habe ich bereits mehrere Dutzend Male gehuldigt. Deswegen bin ja so versessen auf ein neues Album. Insbesonders "In Hell I Will Rule" ist eine absolute Granate.
 
Im Sommer soll ein neues Album von Pentagram kommen. Und 'ne DVD gibt's vorher auch noch.

Wer viel Zeit hat, kann sich hier auch noch das ganze offizielle BlaBla geben. ;)

OFFICIAL PEACEVILLE RECORDS PRESS RELEASE:
Peaceville Records is proud to announce the re-signing of US metal legends Pentagram for their forthcoming studio album, set to be released summer 2015. The highly influential American heavy metal/doom act fronted by the mysterious Bobby Liebling, formed in the early 1970s, though their debut album - now known as ‘Relentless’ - didn’t see a release until 1985. Through 4 decades of adversity and triumph, Pentagram has become a legendary international act and have firmly stamped their name in the heavy metal history books.

Pentagram recently completed pre-production with Swedish producer Mattias Nilsson at studios in Baltimore, DC and VA with additional vocal and guitar production in Knoxville, TN with Travis Wyrick. Wyrick is a Grammy Award-winning producer who produced their previous album, ‘Last Rites’.

The band comments on the signing:
PENTAGRAM is happy to return to the label that helped relaunch interest in our debut album and introduce us to a new metal audience in the 1990s. Peaceville Records has been an ally to us throughout the past 20 years. We are happy to have them by our side once again as we record our fourth album under their banner. Never properly recorded songs written by Bobby in the 70s will be heard on the album as fresh as they were when they were written over 40 years ago. Brand new numbers by the core of Griffin, Turley and Liebling that were written this fall will appear along the old songs and will produce an album that emcompases the true spirit of Pentagram. Doom is often mistaken as exclusively slow music. If you listen to our classic "doom" album "Relentless", many of those doomed classic are quite fast. One of the magic's of doommetal is to have a faster song seem much slower because of the sheer heaviness of the number. That's what we are going for. The band will sound that they are as much from the street as they are from the sabbath, because, well, we are."

It has also been announced that Sean Saley has decided to step down from the drum throne. "Minnesota" Pete Campbell will step in to complete recording and touring duties throughout 2015. Campbell is best known for his drumming with Victor Griffin's In-Graved, Place of Skulls and stoners Sixty Watt Shaman. Sean made the following statement:
"Three years, around a hundred shows, and many countries later, I have decided to leave Pentagram. I would like to thank Bobby, Greg, and Victor, as well as others who played important parts during my time in the band, like Pellet, Klaus Koschel, and Matt Goldsborough. It has been a huge experience in my life and I've become friends with so many people through my involvement with Pentagram- perhaps the biggest reward of any. I wish the best of luck to the band and I hope 2015 is a banner year for Pentagram. As for me, I'm not done. You'll see me out there again in the near future. Thanks!"

Preceding the still-to-be-titled opus is an extensive DVD release, ‘All Your Sins’, featuring numerous electrifying concerts spanning three decades & over 7 hours, straight from the band’s collection.
This first-ever official video collection recovers, repairs and resurrects the earliest known footage of these doomed metal pioneers and more. Featuring 2 DVDs packed with priceless archive footage, as well as recent shows, ‘All Your Sins - Video Vault’ unearths the rumoured lost visual evidence pent up in the Ram Family vault for decades.

Although always a cult act with a strong and dedicated worldwide fanbase, Pentagram has enjoyed a recent surge in interest due in part to the fly-on-the-wall 2011 documentary, ‘Last Days Here’ following the life, trials & tribulations of Bobby Liebling. The film gained international recognition; travelling the worldwide film festival circuit where it won several awards including “Best Music Documentary” at the International Documentary Film Festival in Amsterdam.

Spätes Edit: Hatte ganz vergessen, dass es hier ja auch einen eigenen Thread zur Band gibt (obwohl ich da sogar selber schon gepostet hatte!). Hätte natürlich besser dort rein gepasst.

Kennt hier jemand UR? Hatte ich durch's RH-Forum kennengelernt (noch mal danke, falls der Tippgeber hier auch postet oder mitliest!), und da mir der Kram gerade wieder sehr gut reinläuft, wollte ich die hier auch mal erwähnt wissen. Ist kein traditioneller Doom Metal, sondern eher zwischen Doom und Post-Rock angesiedelt. Lange Songs, nur sehr wenig (unmelodischer) Gesang, durchgängig niedriges Tempo. Alles sehr schwer und ziemlich mächtig.

Kann man sich für lau hier runterladen oder für wenig Geld als CD erstehen (ist aber leider nur eine - allerdings nett aufgemachte - CD-R):

Edit: Vinyl gibt's auch!
 
Saint Vitus have announced that vocalist Scott Reagers will be joining them on their 2015 summer dates in Europe. The band comments: "We will play a special setfor the fans; one comprised mostly of Reagers' pre and post era as SAINT VITUS' singer. We hope that the Vitus family, fans and friends, are eager to revisit the Reagers sound for this brief tour and we especially thank you for your continued support!" The doom legend has already been confirmed for Hellfest Open Air Festival and more dates will follow in due time.
Von der Season of Mist Facebookseite.

Momentan weiß ich nur von der Möglichkeit dies bei Grüne Hölle am Nürburgring und Rockavaria zu sehen.
Bei der Grünen Hölle bin ich eh vor Ort und denke wohl, dass ich mir das echt nicht entgehen lassen werde.
