2013 marked the release of ANVIL‘s 15th studio album ‘Hope In Hell’; the album presents guitarist/vocalist Steve ‘Lips’ Kudlow, drummer RobbReiner and their new bassist Sal Italiano in top form, highly dynamic and full of energy from the first to the last note. “We’re really proud and already love the new album just as much as our early releases from the beginning of the eighties, because Hope In Hell sounds like Anvil live on stage: natural, honest, unvarnished, never over-produced and straight from the heart.”
AC/DC frontman Brian Johnson has confirmed the band will be back in action soon to mark their 40th anniversary.
The Aussie giants – who played their first gig on December 31, 1973 – are planning to start studio work in May, then they’ll deliver one concert for every year of their career.
And the singer has confirmed their schedule had been put on hold while one member of the band dealt with serious health issues.
Johnson tells 98.7 The Gater: “We’ve been denying anything because we weren’t sure. One of our boys was pretty ill, so we didn’t like to say anything. We’re pretty private about things like this; he’s a very proud man.
“But I think we’ll be going in the studio in May in Vancouver – which means we should be getting ready.
“It’s been 40 years of the band’s existence, so I think we’re going to try to go 40 gigs to thank the fans for their undying loyalty. We’re happy to go out even though we’re getting a bit long in the tooth – I’m really looking forward to it.”
AC/DC were last on the road from 2008 until 2010 in support of 16th studio album Black Ice. The three-year trek remains the fourth-biggest grossing tour of all time, having brought in more than $440m.
In 2012 Johnson said the band were considering making a follow-up, but that they’d be unlikely to tour on the same scale, commenting: “It has to be right for the boys to do anything. We’re saying, ‘Can we do this? We’re not going to be a pale shadow of our former selves?’
“We’ll talk about it and make sure we’ve all got it. We’re five pieces of a card – if one of us is not really there, the whole thing would just collapse, I think.”
Former DEATH manager Eric Greif, who still represents the legendary Chuck Schuldiner in the interest of his intellectual property, has checked in with the following update:
“Hey People, I have continued to struggle physically these days, but I wanted to take a moment to share something that lifted my spirits into the sky today: here is a clip from Sam Dunn’s upcoming Extreme Metal episode! It features Chuck and Death, and the password to check it out is Leprosy. Let me know your thoughts. Seeing young Chuck made me shed a tear – I admit it – but also seeing Rick up on that stage, and of course Terry being interviewed…pure magic.”
Check out the clip at this location. Watch the official Death page for updates here.
A rare interview with Death/CONTROL DENIED legend Chuck Schuldiner with Thrash Extra has been posted on YouTube where the godfather of death metal talks about “not” being the inventor of death metal. Check out the three minute clip below:
For the first time in twelve years, work has commenced on the unreleased sophomore album from Control Denied. Guitarist Shannon Hamm and Morrisound Recording guru Jim Morris (ICED EARTH, SAVATAGE, CRIMSON GLORY, DEATH) have been reviewing material recorded by the band before Chuck Schuldiner‘s untimely passing.
Control Denied started in 1996 as Schuldiner wanted to procure a more melodic style than was possible with Death. The project was interrupted by Death’s release The Sound Of Perseverance in 1998, but finally the debut album was released in 1999. A second album, tentatively titled When Man And Machine Collide, was partly recorded, but the death of Schuldiner in 2001, put the recordings on hold.
Control Denied line-up:
– Chuck Schuldiner – guitar (1996 to 2001), vocals (1996-1998)
– Steve DiGiorgio – bass (1999-2001)
– Shannon Hamm – guitar (1997-2001)
– Tim Aymar – vocals (1998-2001)
– Richard Christy – drums (1997-2001)
– Chris Williams – drums (1996)
– Scott Clendenin – bass (1997-1999)
