AUTUMN - Update from Nienke
Dear all,
A little personal update. The past few weeks I've been working on my recovery,
trying to get back on my feet. I am happy to say that the effort is starting to
pay off, I'm gradually feeling better and better. The show at the Goudvishal
next weekend (4th of November) is yet still a bit too early at this stage, so
unfortunately I won't be able to make it, for which I'm very sorry.... to say
the least.
But on a more positive note: if things keep progressing like this, I hope to
make it to the next show on the 17th (Lelystad). So, I will keep you guys posted
and see you real soon!
Last but not least: thank you for all your kind messages! It's comforting to
know that so many people care!!!
Hug, Ninx

HATCHET sign with Metal Blade Records
Metal Blade Records has just inked a deal with Bay Area thrashers HATCHET!
HATCHET is an onslaught of 5 thrash metal fanatics from the San Francisco Bay
Area; a starting point for infamous thrash bands like METALLICA, EXODUS,
TESTAMENT, and VIO-LENCE just to name a few. Formed by Julz on guitar and Slave
behind the drum kit in January 2005, HATCHET was started as the two were fed up
with the stale metal scene in their hometown. Their desire to create music
filled with substance and driving aggression would be enough to help revive a
genre that had slowly began to fade away over the years in their hometown.
HATCHET will be playing various one off dates until they release their new album
in spring/summer 2008 and will then be on a heavy touring schedule. Head over to
the band's MySpace page to check out some tracks to get a taste of what's to
come!
"It is an honour to be working with Metal Blade, and to be a part of the legacy
of amazing artists they have worked with over the years! Together we will help
bring Thrash Metal back to the top where it belongs!" - Hatchet
"In a time where thrash is making an awesome comeback, we are stoked to be
working with bands that are a part of the rebirth. These guys are young,
ruthless and talented and we can't wait till they rock you like its 1984!" Metal
Blade
HATCHET is:
Marcus (Tormentor) - Vocal Assault
Julz - Lead Guitars
Sterling (McFly) - Guitars
Slave - Drums
Dan (Destroyer) - Bass

WOE OF TYRANTS sign with Metal Blade Records
Metal Blade Records is very pleased to announce the latest addition to its
illustrious roster, WOE OF TYRANTS. From Chillicothe, Ohio comes the next heavy
metal Goliath. WOE OF TYRANTS is comprised of five guys dead-set on playing
metal the way they want to, never listening or caring what scene they belong to
or what sells the most records; who mix the best of death, thrash, and power
metal in a concoction that defies pigeon-holing. Mix the vintage sounds of
TESTAMENT and METALLICA, brutal death metal, epic power metal, and even some
southern fried flair thrown on top, and you have what has become known as WOE OF
TYRANTS.
"We are extremely excited about working with Metal Blade and feel that we have a
lot to offer the label and more importantly the heavy metal community all
together. We feel Metal Blade has our best interests at heart as they've shown
their dedication to their artists and fans by releasing some of the best metal
in the world for decades.
We have always stuck with our guns when writing and performing
our music, refusing to give into any of the trends or clichés that pop-up in the
heavy music genre and are very thankful that Metal Blade has not let this go
unnoticed. We are prepared to unleash the best and most crushing material we've
written thus far and hope to reach as many people possible with our music. We
are blessed to have such an opportunity. Keep a lookout for our debut, and lots
of touring, this is only the beginning!" WOE OF TYRANTS
"WOE OF TYRANTS plays a unique blend of death, thrash, melody, exceptional
guitar riffs and even a little bit of Southern rock. They have a great work
ethic and we can't wait to work along side them to take them to the next level.
W.O.T. will definitely be a band to keep all eyes and ears on. Welcome to the
Metal Blade family, guys!" Metal Blade Records - Jen Graham
WOE OF TYRANTS will be touring through the winter and will be finishing up the
writing of their Metal Blade debut in the spring with plans to enter the studio
in early summer 2008. More details on tour dates and the album will be made over
the coming weeks and months so be sure to keep an eye on the band's website.
WOE OF TYRANTS is:
Chris Burns - Guitars

THE AGONY SCENE is firing on all cylinders on its inspired and lovingly titled
3rd album, "Get Damned", produced by Andreas Magnusson (Black Dahlia Murder,
Scarlet), which will hit European stores on January 21st, 2008. If you missed

perspective, "Get Damned" is as highly charged and personal a recording as you

sharper, more metallic elements, complete with cutting riffs and just enough
attitude to give it that recognisable charm that has come to define THE AGONY
SCENE.
A vicious new track, "Rapture", was recently posted on their MySpace page

DECAPITATED - UPDATE ON BAND MEMBERS SITUATION
The following is a statement from a member of Covan's family, via Martin, former
bass player of Decapitated, with regards to the band members situation following
the bus crash in Russia earlier this week:
"Covan and Vitek are still at the hospital in Novozybkov, Russia, where they
were taken to following the accident. Despite the rumors, they are not in
Moscow.
Their families are currently trying to decide the best possible city and
hospital to take them to next for additional medical attention.
Covan is showing some progress, but unfortunately, there has been no signs of
improvement in Vitek's condition. The families of Covan and Vitek appreciate

rumours or information on the Internet. More details will soon be released."
SEVERE TORTURE SPEAK OUT ABOUT RECENT MEXICAN TOUR
After recently delivering their brutal Death Metal sound to Mexico, Severe
Torture have given an exclusive insight into the life of a band on tour. Aptly
describing the visit as 'Vengeance Over Mexico', with their latest album Sworn
Vengeance due for release this month, Seth reveals all about Mexico, Maffia and
bootleg Merch. Read what he has to say here:
"On October 1st we arrived in Mexico City, where we met with our Mexican
friends: Dave, Javier, Micky and Carlos. Of course the first night we went for
some beers and tacos to relax after a long flight.
The next day, travelling to Monterrey, just to sleep and on Wednesday we had our
first gig in Laredo. Many fanatic maniacs showed up and the show was a blast.
Before and after the show we had to drink many beers with our fans and that gave
us a warm welcome.
Next day, October 4th, we went to Tampico to play at the Club Golden Billar. It
was a hot, but brutal show!!! After the show we wanted to drive to our Hotel,
but there was a Mercedes with black windows blocking the street. It didn't look
ok so we turned around and took another street. Another car with black windows
pulled up in front of us and blocked the street again. We were now sure this was
not good, especially when we saw guys coming out, holding guns...
We got the hell out of there, went the opposite direction, drove
around the city and got to our hotel safe. Next day we saw a newspaper, it said
that later that night, the army went there and arrested 18 drug maffia-related
members, who were loading up a truck of cocaine in the street they were
blocking. We were glad we weren't there, that's for sure! We played in Monterrey
and the day after we did an open air show in San Luis Potosi. The crowd was for
sure one of the most brutal ones we ever played for!!! We spent a lot of time
hanging out with them and had a great time.
After another great gig in Queretaro we had 3 days off, so we
went to Teotihuacan to climb the Pyramid of the Sun and the Moon. It was
something no one of us ever saw. Thanx to Dave and his friend Gabriella for
taking us there.
Our hotel was in Mexico City so we spent our remaining two days there.
On Oct. 11th we played in the Area Chica in Toluca. And again the people showed
that they have a great passion for metal. The two last shows were Guadalajara
and last but not least Mexico City in the Infernal Bar. Guadalajara was hot. We
went to a market first with just CD's, t-shirts, bags etc. All of a sudden we
hear a track of our new album coming from somewhere. We checked it out and
that's when we saw the first bootleg version of "Sworn Vengeance". Guadalajara
was so hot that my whopper came out again. Lucky that was after the show, sorry
to the club by the way...
Finally, Mexico City. Probably the best show of the tour. When we arrived at the
club we saw a big merchandise booth, with lots of different bootleg Severe
Torture shirts! Awesome to see such support! We even got a Sworn Vengeance
longsleeve now, before the album's out! But who cares, these people are 100%
metal!!! Thanx for the support! There were a lot of people we met in the days
before that show, so a lot of partying! We picked some good tracks out of the
death metal jukebox and had our last Mexican beers with our friends.
We like to thank Dave, Javier, Micky and Carlos for taking good care of us! We
had a blast!!! And also many thanx to our Mexican fans, you were great!!!
Hopefully we will be back soon with more Severe Torture!
Salud cabrones!
Seth, Severe Torture"

EVILE GUITARIST COMMENTS ON RECENT UK TOUR WITH SANCTITY
Fresh from taking the UK by storm on a recent rip-roaring tour with US metallers
Sanctity and Romeo Must Die, Evile guitarist Ol Drake has spoken out about how
the fast-rising Huddersfield thrashers found the tour:
"It's been awesome touring with two great bands who just happened to be awesome
people too. In Sanctity's case we were un-sure what to expect, as our past
experiences with American bands hasn't been too good, but they're such awesome
guys. This tour's just been 100% fun and pleasure."
The brutality of the thrashers coming out to see them was definitely in full
force, as Ol recounts an instance at a show in Scotland. He explains:
"Some guy got knocked out and taken to Hospital in Glasgow. He's ok now though.
BRUTAL. you can't keep a Thrasher down.
It's just been an all around blast. Cheers to all who came out and took the time
to watch Evile, and Cheers to our new mates Sanctity and RMD. Thrash you all
again soon."

BRAINSTORM to re-schedule tour
Dear friends and fans,
As EVERGREY will not have their new album released in time, they can not take
part in the planned tour. Due to this fact, we need to re-schedule the dates for
the tour that will now happen without EVERGREY. We are already discussing some
very interesting special guests but as we are sure you understand, we need some
days to come up with new dates and details.
Todde, Andy, Mille and Dieter
Here's what EVERGREY have to state about the cancellation:
Hello,
Unfortunately we must infom you that EVERGREY not is able to do the planned tour
with BRAINSTORM in March 2008. This is due to the fact that our next album not
will be ready in time to be released before the tour. We feel it's not fair to
the fans or to the promoters or to BRAINSTORM to do a tour without the new album
out. If the circumstances aren't the best we shouldn't do a major tour like
this. We are sorry for any problems this may cause but we will be back soon.
Tom, Henrik, Rikard, Jonas and Jari

BOLT THROWER to play Wacken?
As most of you probably know, BOLT THROWER don't like to play festivals, but as
a lot of you want to see us playing festivals, we try and play at least one
festival a year. After receiving numerous offers, we now have to choose which
festival to play next Summer, and would like you to help us decide. As BT are
not financially driven, the fee is pretty irrelevant,
as is whether we play to 1000 people or 100,000. Our main requirement would be
to have our usual merchandise / meet and greet booth, with no price
restrictions.
Wacken Open Air festival have asked us again to play next Summer, and the date
would fit in with the gap in our planned recording and mixing schedule for next
year. A lot of you have asked us to play Wacken over the years, and a lot of you
have advised us not to play it, for various reasons.
So now, we would like you to help us decide by taking part in the following
poll.
Poll: Would you like to see Bolt Thrower play the Wacken Open Air Festival?
Click here: http://www.boltthrower.com
We'd really like to hear your opinions, so please vote...
Cheers,

The track 'Son Of Beast' taken from the Merseyside crossover-thrashers' latest
release 'Short Sharp Shock' now features in a Geoff Rowley skate advert for
Independent trucks. Speaking about the advert, S.S.S frontman Foxy has stated:
"Geoff is a major force to be reckoned with as a sk8er. Independent Trucks are
the backbone of skateboarding, and SSS is unstoppable. SSS is stoked to be a
part of Geoff's ad - RIDE THE BEST AND FU*K THE REST".
With S.S.S being deeply rooted in the Liverpool skateboarding scene, Foxy
reveals that the band have a long-standing friendship with the skater. He
explains that they used to "travel to new spots all over the country and skate
the rough cold streets of Liverpool at a time when sk8ing was on its arse, dead
and truely underground. Music and sk8ing fuelled us and will be forever indebted
to each other. Dont fu*k with Geoff or SSS, you will always bite off more than
you can chew".

SEVERE TORTURE 'SWORN VENGEANCE' OUT NOW
The latest release from Dutch Death Metal destroyers Severe Torture is out now
in UK/Europe. 'Sworn Vengeance', which hits the shelves today has already been
met with blistering reviews and UK's Metal Hammer magazine writes:
"All the trademarks of the new wave of brutal death metal are in place - Dennis
Schreurs' fearsome, slightly more refined vocals, the ice-cold precision from
the drums and guitars and an overall air of menace all make most recent extreme
metal seem slightly tepid in comparison".
The album, which has been hailed by Terrorizer as "a superlative slice of
unfussy death metal" is also available in a Limited Edition format, which
contains cover versions of the Cro-Mags track 'It's The Limit' and Entombed's 'Eyemaster'.
This album is a must-have for all fans of urgent and direct pure death metal
without any frills. To hear the track 'Dismal Perception' taken from 'Sworn
Vengeance' and to find out more about the release head over to www.myspace.com/severetortureswornvengeance.

BONDED BY BLOOD - REPORT FROM ARIZONA'S METALSTOCK FESTIVAL
Thrash dynamos, BONDED BY BLOOD spent last weekend playing several shows in
Arizona, including a headlining spot at the Metalstock Festival. It was an
all-day affair featuring over 30 of finest metal bands that Arizona has to
offer. BONDED BY BLOOD vocalist, Aladdin felt the love from the crowd at
Metalstock and now dishes some love back at them and the crowd they played for,
the previous evening in Prescott:
"Arizona was amazing. Prescott was fun...a bunch of old school thrash fans made
it fun. Phoenix's Metalstock was pure insanity! An all day festival of 30
bands...All of what Arizona has to offer plus BONDED BY BLOOD. People were
astonished
after hearing the old school vibes that we provided. All in all, Arizona was
one of the most kick ass states we have played!"
The Arizona shows gave BONDED BY BLOOD the adrenaline boost they needed to tear
it up even harder when they head for the studio in December to record their
full-length EARACHE debut.
Thrash in the new year with BONDED BY BLOOD on these dates:
Jan 9 2008 The Knitting Factory w/Tyrant & Witchaven - Los Angeles, California
Jan 19 2008 The Epic Lounge - Downey, California

BLOOD RED THRONE - NEW INTERVIEW WITH DOD ON METAL MAYHEM UK
Metal Mayhem UK recently spoke to BLOOD RED THRONE guitarist, Dod about the
band's new album, COME DEATH. Over the course of the interview, Dod reveals much
about their writing and recording process, talks about the intense musicianship
that each band member brings and gives a rundown of BLOOD RED THRONE's plans for
the end of 2007 with a taste of what's in store for 2008.
Read what BLOOD RED THRONE guitarist, Dod has to say regarding all those topics
and more at http://www.metal-mayhem.co.uk/interviews/bloodredthrone.html.
Metal Mayhem UK uses some strong words to describe the sheer terror that BLOOD
RED THRONE's new album, COME DEATH will leave in the wake of every listener:
"COME DEATH has an old school death metal feel: pummeling bass and ripping
guitars will leave listeners feeling like a corpse in Ed Gein's wed shed:
gutted, decapitated and hung out to dry."

ELUVEITIE - Inks deal with Nuclear Blast
NUCLEAR BLAST is very happy and proud to announce the signing of the Swiss band
ELUVEITIE!
We are really looking forward to a very successful future with the band!
Check out the following statement from the band:
"Great news we have for you these days! While being busy finishing up the
production of Slania and working on our Evocation-concept we still found the
time to travel to Donzdorf in Germany for a few beers & a talk with the people
of Nuclear Blast Records...
Not only did they make us drunk as hell, but they also impressed us with a great
artist roster, 20 Years of incredible work (happy birthday Nuclear Blast!) and
their professional but still very "metal" staff. So we did what had to be done -
we came, we saw and we signed. We are looking forward to many years of great
work together with one of the world's biggest record companies in metal and are
glad to announce that our new full-length record "Slania" will join the legions
of legendary albums released by Nuclear Blast at FEBRUARY 15th, 2008!
Now you'll probably remember a news-entry of some weeks ago, telling you about
Evocation I & II on Twilight Records... You remember right, and no: We weren't
drunk. ;) But we are very happy that Twilight and Nuclear Blast decided to join
forces, so Twilight will take care of our back-catalogue (Spirit is bein
re-released by Twilight these days & our first EP Ven will follow in Spring 2008
- check www.twilight-vertrieb.com!) while Evocation I (that's right: it's gonna
be two full albums) will be released through NB in Winter 2008.
We are very happy with where things are going right now, and you can expect to
hear a lot from us & about our new album within the next few weeks... Stay
tuned!"
Horns up & slaínte!

ABORTED - post "Slaughter & Apparatus TV - Episode 2" @ YouTube
After slaughtering European audiences on their highly successful tour with
Behemoth and Kataklysm, Belgian Death/Grind outfit ABORTED now presents you the
second episode of "Slaughter & Apparatus TV" offering impressions from this
particular tour and revealing more about the sick quintet's offstage antics than
you ever wanted to know!
Watch "Slaughter & Apparatus TV - Episode 2" now at the following link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6AROhD_XkAw
ABORTED's first album on Century Media Records "Slaughter & Apparatus: A
Methodical Overture" was released earlier this year and has received massive
acclaim from fans and media alike, read what press says about this brutal
masterpiece:
"With its fifth full-length the Belgian high tech death metal squad has finally
reached the top of the genre. High class death metal brutality garnered with
refined musicianship. Cannibal Corpse and Death meets Strapping Young Lad and
Darkane. Killer!"
ROCK HARD (D)
"Massive riffs, brutal blasts, heavy grooves and gore galore. Tension,
performance and sawn off legs on the highest level!"
METAL HAMMER (D)
"ABORTED delivers highly proficient slabs of ultra violence complete with
crushing breakdowns, stupefying stickwork and bruised rib riffing."
DECIBEL (US)
"ABORTED lay waste to all of the cheap Carcass imitators of the past."
METAL MANIACS (US)

ARCH ENEMY - Post "Revolution Begins" video
While ARCH ENEMY's new album "Rise Of The Tyrant" is being praised by media and
fans alike, the band now presents you the impressive brand-new video clip for
"Revolution Begins"!
Directed by Patric Ullaeus (Dimmu Borgir, In Flames, etc.) from www.revolver.se
the video approaches the song's title & lyrics quite literally showing ARCH
ENEMY and their guerrilla forces preparing a massive world-wide uproar driven by
unrivalled metallic fury! Michael Amott comments:
"Check out our video for 'Revolution Begins', it was a very enjoyable shoot and
the visuals work great with the music - Patric Ullaeus is the man!"
The clip is now available at:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p4sk8Eyy-ns
Furthermore the band has just finished the Australian part of The Black Crusade
Tour with Machine Head & Trivium and Michael Amott sends the following re-cap:
"Our third visit to Australia was killer! We had a good time as usual here and I
enjoyed the shows, which were all pretty huge and fun to play. Machine Head,
Trivium and Arch Enemy proved to be a great package. Great shows, great weather
and great people! I'd also like to thank all the good people at CMI who supplied
the Randall amps and hooked up the in-stores I did, always fun to talk string
gauges and tubes with guitar kids - and I'm not being ironic here!"
ARCH ENEMY will next be playing two headlining shows in Greece & Spain, followed
by the frenetically awaited European leg of The Black Crusade Tour (w/ Machine
Head, Dragonforce, Trivium, Shadows Fall). So, have a look at the dates below
and prepare your neck for THE metal live package of 2007!

TURISAS - TURISAS TOUR UK IN MARCH 2008
2007 has been an amazing year for Turisas with the release of their epic new
album 'The Varangian Way', playing the main stage at the Download Festival,
Metal Hammer's 'Get In The Ring' & Kerrang Magazine's 'Day Of Rock' shows in
London, a sold out UK tour, Wacken, Tuska & Graspop Festivals and touring Europe
with Iced Earth & Annihilator .. and finishing off with the year in style with a
show stealing performance at last weekend's inaugural Hard Rock Hell Festival in
Minehead ….. so what better way to start 2008 than bringing everyone's favourite
Viking warriors back to the UK to play some more shows
Warlord Nygard comments on the forthcoming tour: "We just got back home from
Hard Rock Hell festival in Minehead, which surely was a great and rather
interesting experience … we are still trying to cure our hangovers! We did our
first UK tour this October, and the response was overwhelming - with sold out
dates and crazy crowds everywhere! In March we will return to tour cities and
towns we didn't play in October and we're expecting you guys to prove us right
in not only touring the main 4-5 cities, but trying to play as much of the
country as we can and meet as many of you battle metallers as possible!"
Turisas will play the following venues with the support act to be announced
