Johnny Cash - Ain't No Grave

Johnny Cash was one of the most imposing and influential figures in post-World War II country music. With his deep, resonant baritone and spare, percussive guitar, he had a basic, distinctive sound.

Health problems plagued Cash throughout the '90s and into the 2000s, but he continued to record with Rubin; their fourth collaboration, American IV: The Man Comes Around, was released in late 2002. The following year, the Mark Romanek-directed video for his cover of Nine Inch Nails' "Hurt" garnered considerable acclaim and media attention, culminating in an unexpected nomination for video of the year at the MTV Video Music Awards. Not long after the video sparked numerous stories, his beloved wife June Carter Cash died on May 15, 2003, of complications following heart surgery. Four months later, Johnny died of complications from diabetes in Nashville, TN. He was 71.

Five months later, the compilation Legend of Johnny Cash became a Top Ten hit. In 2006 Lost Highway released the next-to-last installment of Cash's legendary "American" recordings, American V: A Hundred Highways, from the late singer's last sessions with collaborator Rick Rubin. American VI: Ain't No Grave is the final installment in the collaboration between Cash and Rick Rubin, Released for the occasion of Johnny Cash's 78th birthday, that began with 1994’s American Recordings. These ten songs were cut during the same sessions for American V: A Hundred Highways. Guitarists Mike Campbell, Matt Sweeney, Smokey Hormel, and Benmont Tench on keyboards were present, as were other musicians. The song selection is rooted in the Americana, folk, country, and gospel traditions. Ain't No Grave would be the last album released under Cash’s name. It is not only a compelling contribution to his legacy, but an offering that closes the historic American Recordings series with the same stamp of quality that began it.

Todays tune "Ain't No Grave" is taken from "American VI: Ain't No Grave", released February 23, 2010.



Cash didn't sound like Nashville, nor did he sound like honky tonk or rock & roll.

The Avett Brothers - Talk On Indolence

The construction is proceeding in "Slottsskogen" and it begins to take shape, now it's officially the third day I'm here but for Tune Of The Day, it's day two. Today we serve a band playing at Azalea, Friday 14:00

The Avett Brothers, A little recap: North Carolina, Beard, two brothers (Seth and Scott) and a friend (Bob), melancholy and euphoria in a world of bluegrass music go hand in hand with punk. Yes, somewhere where Hank Williams breed children with Neil Young as the rebellious fashion press in the Rocket To Russia by Ramones to distance themselves from their parents. However, such a father like son - The Avett Brothers are all that and then some.

The Rick Rubin-produced album "I and Love and You" touched and created mess on the U.S. Billboard chart. Perhaps not surprisingly, since we already knew from before, what the three men could achieve. But like a mad man was of course delighted when the list in general tend to consist of pouring and re-pouring.

Here is some mixed pictures from today!

Todays tune ”Talk On Indolence” is a manic piece and is taken from the album "Live, Vol. 3” it’s a 2010 live album. It features a concert recorded in the band's hometown of Charlotte, NC at Bojangles Coliseum on August 8th, 2009. Originally taken from the album "Four Thieves Gone: The Robbinsville Sessions” was released in 2006.

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
