Clawfinger - Biggest & The Best


Today Im going to break some thingies here :)
We usually do classics on sundays but I saw a video on a friends FB, and I really loved it.

This is a Swedish rap/metal, kinda industry metal music, that I really like. They have cocky lyrics and good ones too.

For givin u an example this is the beggining of this tune, its sorta sarcastic :D

"Nobody is perfect but I'm pretty fucking close
and I'm here to give you all a heavy heavenly dose
I think you'd better listen 'cos I know who you are
and I think that you should treat me like a superstar
because I'm more than just a human I'm a gift to all of you
and I'm here to make sure that my message gets through
I wonder if you're really all as dumb as you look
or are you smart enough to learn the rules in my book
I hope you understand that the knowledge I bring
puts me in the position of a god or a king
'cos I'm blessed with the gift of the magic touch"



Clawfinger are currently working on a re-recording of their debut album Deaf Dumb Blind. The plan is to re-record all the songs from that album and bring in guests. Zak Tell has stated they were speaking with the members of Rammstein and Peter Tagtgren from the bands Pain and Hypocrisy.

Current members are,
Zak Tell on Lead vocals, lyrics
Jocke Skog on Keyboards, vocals
Bård Torstensen on Rhythm guitar
André Skaug on Bass
Micke Dahlén on Drums

Okey lets DIG!

Cheers, Thetania

Number 1, In Flames, Of Course!!!!

Today there isnt any other album that fully fill my needs in the music world.
Stones and I are going to see them at the club concert they are doing :D

This new album "Sounds Of A Playground Fading" is diffrent in many ways, one of em is that Jesper is not there, but they have another great guitarrist there, Niclas Engelin. Niclas is with In Flames now, at the same time he is in Engel, a band thats really great as well. In Flames Album has many highlights, this tune is one of em.

Enter the Hunt - Fighters


Katatonia is celebrating an 20th year anniversary, this evening they will play at the Göta Källare here in Stockholm, tonights show is going to be a little extravagant in the celebrations as Katatonia have the pleasure to feature exclusive appearances by all their ex-bandmembers and a couple of guests at this show only.

Katatonia will again perform two sets at each show; the first set will they play the front to back of ‘Last Fair Deal Gone Down’ – the album that put Katatonia firmly on the musical map and coincidentally also celebrates 10 years since its release. The second set will consist of a mixed set of carefully picked songs from their extensive catalogue. In its entirety this evening with Katatonia will be well over two and a half hours of live music.



Among the special guests: Long time former band mates and brothers Fredrik and Mattias Norrman will take on their old bass and guitar duties on selected songs. Also confirmed is the one and only Mr Guillaume Le Huche (a.k.a. Israphel Wing), known for being the band’s bass guitarist on their very first studio album ‘Dance of December Souls’ back in 1993. And the last special guest to be announced is Krister Linder who’s flying over from New York City and taking on vocals duties next to Jonas Renkse to depart the night’s performance.

Enter The Hunt makes a special gig as support act for Katatonia so I thought that we offer a track by them.


Enter The Hunt (ETH) is a Swedish metal band from Stockholm, which was formed in 2002 by Bjorn Flodkvist, Stefan Kälfors and Mats Ståhl. The debut album "For Life. 'Til Death. To Hell. With Love" released by Sony BMG in August 2006. The band's second full length album planned "Empires Fall" has had its release postponed. A first single, "Fighters", released in May 2009. This single is today's Tune Of The Day.



Blog and WeRock colleague Kim Kahn writes about this in her blog and she also got the chance to do an interview with the band that you can read about here! Additionally, there is a contest on WeRock, where the price is a delicious ETH t-shirt, check it out here!

Flyleaf - Chasm



Flyleaf is the band im gonna show u today, I saw em as a support band to a band I dont remember... haha Ah well it was on the Stadion In Stockholm, Sweden.
I was pretty amazed over her voice.



Then last year I heard her (Lacey Sturm)singin´ in Apocalyptica´s "Broken Pieces, and i was totally hooked to her!



Flyleaf is heavy music and pained lyrics go together like cake and ice cream, and Belton, Texas quintet, Flyleaf, aren't about to break with tradition. But while many loud rockers reopen old wounds by singing about their broken homes and broken hearts, Flyleaf confront past traumas to heal old scars and prove in the process that hope shines brighter than despair.



The tune of today is on the album on their follow-up to their 2005 platinum debut. It contains 14 songs, which were selected out of 30 already written. The band reunited with producer Howard Benson to make the album. The album was recorded at Bay7 Studios in Los Angeles, California. It was released on November 10, 2009. The band debuted two songs, "Chasm" and "Circle", from Memento Mori live during a small acoustic tour in Afghanistan for United States Troops.

Folks, Here is Lacey Sturm and her Flyleaf!

Peace, Thetania



A live performance of the same tune.

System Of A Down - Chop Suey!



Next band I picking is This... Wonderful cool band full of energy!



One could hear the sound long away from the Black Stage were they performed.
The crowd went totally crazy when they went up stage,
it was a pleasure to hear it.



The band was formed in 1994. It consists of Serj Tankian (lead vocals, keyboards, rhythm guitar), Daron Malakian (guitar, vocals), Shavo Odadjian (bass, background vocals) and John Dolmayan (drums). All four members are of Armenian descent, and are widely known for their outspoken views expressed in many of their songs confronting the Armenian Genocide of 1915 as well as the ongoing War on Terrorism.



In 2005, System of a Down planned something so unique and crazy as releasing two albums during that year, six months apart.
They released Mezmerize, where they again collaborated with Rick Rubin as producer. The album sold 10 million copies worldwide
over. Six months later, Hypnotize was released who became an equally big success.

At the absolute peak of their career, with two topped album in the U.S. sales charts in the same year and millions of albums sold worldwide, System of a Down decided to take a longer break. A pause that lasts until 2011, when they will do some gigs around the world. Metaltown becomes their only gig in Scandinavia!
We are very proud to have them with us at our festival and the audince loved them as well as me :D



Tour:
June 21, 2011 Moscow, Russia Olympisky
October 2, 2011 Rio De Janeiro, Brazil Rock In Rio

Ladys and Gents here are 2 videos from them,

Love to u all, Thetania

Seether - Country Song



Seether just released their album "Holding Onto Strings Better Left to Fray".

This band first name was Saron Gas, they come from Pretoria, South Africa, 1999.

The ballad "Broken" with Amy Lee of Evanescence on share vocal with Morgan. Inspired by the positive reaction the duet got on the road and perhaps fueled by a budding romance between Lee and Morgan, the band headed into the studio and quickly recorded an alternate version of "Broken" with Amy Lee on vocals.



The song, along with a new song titled "Sold Me", was featured on the soundtrack for the 2004 film The Punisher and was massively successful, bringing the band fame in the US, the UK and Australia in particular. I really like "Broken" a lot its a good tune, Amy´s singing is awesome.

Shaun Morgan on lead vocals, rhythm guitar
Dale Stewart on bass, backing vocals
John Humphrey on drums

Taste Of Chaos was in town yesterday! (In Stockholm, Sweden)
The arena was quite empty it was a bit sad to see.
But they had the gig just b4 salary, and in the middle of the week,
so what can they expect.
They had at least 2 band that I wanted to hear and see.
Papa Roach and Disturbed.
Then there were Buckcherry, Halestorm, As I Lay Dying,
Heaven Shall Burn, Adept och Suicide Silence.
As I was a bit late I saw Papa Roach, As I Lay Dying and Disturbed.

Took some pics of these 3 band that I will share with u all.

We begin with Papa Roach





Papa Roach...WOW that was something,
But sadly enough their sound tech guy must have done something that
fucked up the sound cos it was not good at all,
but still they did a hell of a gig!

Thats something huh!?!
They are:
Jacoby Shaddix on lead vocals
