Video footage of ANNIHILATOR mainman Jeff Waters performing at the Musikmesse Frankfurt 2012 fair, which is taking place March 21-24 in Frankfurt am Main, Germany, can be seen below.
ANNIHLATOR is currently working on its 14th studio release as well as a “special” recording that Waters describes as “a treat for the faithful ANNIHILATOR fans and a welcoming to our new fans.” The band is also in talks with labels about a record deal for Canada and the USA.
ANNIHILATOR‘s self-titled album was released in Europe on May 17, 2010. The CD was made available in Europe via Earache Records, in Japan through Marquee and in Australia via Riot Entertainment. It was also released in the U.S. and Canada via iTunes and most all other digital/online outlets.
Legendary IRON MAIDEN singer Bruce Dickinson is confirmed to take part in the BUDDY RICH 25th Anniversary Memorial Concert, which takes place for the first time in the UK at the world-famous London Palladium on April 2nd.
Dickinson will be singing while fellow heavy rock legend, Ian Paice of DEEP PURPLE fame plays drums alongside the full BUDDY RICH ORCHESTRA.
The world-class lineup will also feature Dave Weckl, Gregg Bissonette (DAVID LEE ROTH, JOE SATRIANI), John Blackwell and Gregg Potter, Ginger Baker (CREAM), Gavin Harrison (PORCUPINE TREE) and Elliott Henshaw from the UK. Plus singing supremo Tony Christie will also appear.
One of legendary drummer Buddy Rich’s last requests to his daughter, Cathy, was to keep his band working, his music alive, and to do something for young people. No easy task, but eventually Cathy decided that an annual memorial concert seemed the way to go. The first sellout memorial concert was in 1988 at the celebrated Carnegie Hall in New York. Since then, shows have followed in Los Angeles, Las Vegas and Boston with the who’s who of the drumming world taking part and the shows being described as the The Greatest Drum Show Of All Time. Artists to grace the stage in previous years have included Mel Tormé, Joe Williams, Stan Getz, Steve Gadd, Dave Weckl, Vinnie Colaiuta and Dennis Chambers.
This year, on the exact date of the 25th anniversary of Buddy’s death, it is the turn of the London Palladium to host this prestigious event. The show, co-hosted by Cathy herself, features the US-based Buddy Rich Big Band supported by UK session musicians who used to play with Buddy. Cathy will also present Lifetime Achievement Awards to three rock drumming legends.
On his involvement, the highly-respected Dave Weckl said: “Anytime I get to pay tribute to one of the greatest players of our instrument, I am first in line. To be able to play with a great Big Band and play songs from the Buddy Rich book is one of my favourite things to do as a drummer.”
Tickets are available from the Box Office on 0844 412 4657 or online at See Tickets and are priced from £25 to £60. VIP tickets are available on a strictly limited basis only. They include the best seats in the house, an opportunity to meet the headline artists, admission to the after-show party and signed merchandise.
This is one show not to be missed – the world’s greatest musicians in the world’s greatest theatre paying tribute to “the world’s greatest drummer.”

When I first put this on I was immediately drawn to the Foo Fighter & Biffy Clyro sound in the way it has been produced. The song itself has a very catchy riff with hints of the Foo Fighters coming out right through the song it has a good clean guitar sound with good clean vocals by Tomas. I would say it has a very bouncy bass line but with the guitars and vocals makes it a perfect song to go quite a long way in the mainstream charts.
