HEAVY LOAD

Hui ... "Full Speed at High Level" ist ja halbwegs schlecht ... aber man hört, dass sie Großes vorhaben :D
 
Kennt hier vielleicht jemand den aktuellen Stand der Dinge? "Early Summer" ist ja doch irgendwie schon 'ne Weile her...
Jep:

Styrbjörn: We collect stamps and listen to country and western music (laughs). We are working on the re-releases of our old albums. We have the bonus tracks and Stronger Than Evil will come out in October/November with six bonus tracks, a gatefold cover and about fifty pictures that have never been published before. There will be a thick booklet with pictures and stories about the songs, and what we thought about them. The label will be No Remorse, it's a joint venture between them and mine and Ragne’s own label Thunderload Records. There will be both a CD version and vinyl, as well as some limited edition stuff. As far a concert goes...you really want to know?

was ich nicht verstehe, ist wieso der beste Part von 'Heathens from the North' nur 1x vorkommt, anstatt immer nach dem Refrain wiederholt zu werden. Neueinspielung jetzt!
 
HEAVY METAL LEGENDS HEAVY LOAD ARE BACK

THE LEGACY

HEAVY LOAD is widely held as the band that started the whole Swedish Heavy Metal wave with their first album in 1978. In addition, they are regarded as the first Viking Metal band in the world. Heavy Load was founded in the depths of midwinter 1974-75 by the two brothers Ragne Wahlquist (vocals, keyboard and guitar) and Styrbjörn Wahlquist (vocals and drums). The brothers’ vision has always been the core of what Heavy Load was all about. In 1978, HEAVY LOAD released their first album entitled “Full Speed at High Level”, and after expanding the line up with a second guitarist, they founded their own recording facility, the famous Thunderload Studios, along with their own label, Thunderload Records. On their own label, they released timeless HEAVY LOAD classics, such as: “Metal Conquest” (1981), “Death Or Glory “(1982) and “Stronger Than Evil” (1983).

RECENT NEWS

Now, due to an epic pact between the band and No Remorse Records, the legendary HEAVY LOAD back catalogue will be made available again. The series of ultimate reissues will start with their last album “Stronger Than Evil”, and will continue back through their production. These first ever official reissues will be expanded with bonus tracks: some of these tracks have never been heard by the public before – demos, and songs recorded for the albums which had to be dropped due to the limited playing time on the LPs. In order to guarantee the best sound quality, the reissues have been remastered – by the Wahlquist brothers themselves – directly from the original analogue tapes, at the Atlantis Studio in Stockholm, which is one of the few studios that still have the capacity to handle recordings the old analogue way.

Als die Heavy Load Headlinershow auf dem KIT angekündigt wurde, bin ich vor Freude fast an die Decke gesprungen :jubel:
Der Auftitt der Heavy Load Tribute Band auf dem Truveheim Festival hat mich schon extremst mitgerissen, wie wird das dann erst beim Orginal sein? :jubel:


Was die Alben angeht gefällt mir die Stronger Than Evil am besten, gefolgt von der Death Or Glory. :)

So geil die Pornobox auch aussieht werde ich dennoch nicht für jedes Heavy Load-Album € 90,- zzgl. UPS-Versand ausgeben. Werden also die normalen Vinyls, wenn HRR sie bekommt.

Genau der Preis stört mich auch extrem. Sieht alles super aus und die 89 euro sind auch sicherlich irgendwie zu rechtfertigen. Mir persönlich ist es aber wohl auch etwas zu teuer...
