OSI: New Album Details Revealed

"Fire Make Thunder" marks the fourth undertaking for the collaborative duo known as OSI. The CD is slated for a March 27 release via Metal Blade Records.

Formed in 2002 by Jim Matheos (FATES WARNING, ARCH/MATHEOS) and Kevin Moore (CHROMA KEY, former DREAM THEATER keyboardist), OSI is a long-distance partnership, both musicians typically writing and recording alone and sending song ideas back and forth for further elaboration.

Written and recorded throughout most of 2011, this latest release once again reflects the eclectic influences of both Matheos and Moore.

Returning as OSI's session drummer is Gavin Harrison of PORCUPINE TREE, this time co-writing one of the tracks with the band. All other instruments and programming were performed by both Matheos and Moore, while vocals and lyrics were handled exclusively by Moore.

All of the recording for "Fire Make Thunder", with the exception of drums, was done by Moore and Matheos at each musician's respective home studio with drums being recorded at Harrison's home in London. Final overdubs as well as some additional writing/arranging was completed in July 2011 in Jamaica, Iowa, where the band mixed alongside engineer Matt Sepanic at Sound Farm Studio & Recording Environment. Mastering was handled by renowned engineer Roger Siebel. The record was produced by both Moore and Matheos.

"Fire Make Thunder" track listing:

01. Cold Call
02. Guards
03. Indian Curse
04. Enemy Prayer
05. Wind Won't Howl
06. Big Chief II
07. For Nothing
08. Invisible Men

An audio medley of tracks from "Fire Make Thunder" is available in the YouTube clip below.

IHSAHN To Guest On Ex-NEVERMORE Guitarist's New Solo Album

Former EMPEROR frontman Ihsahn (real name: Vegard Sverre Tveitan) will make a guest appearance on the sophomore solo album from ex-NEVERMORE guitarist Jeff Loomis. The CD, which is being produced by Aaron Smith (7 HORNS 7 EYES), is scheduled for release later in the year via Century Media Records.

Commented Loomis: "I know most of you are aware that Christine Rhoades is doing some vocals on my album. At first I thought she'd be the only guest singer on the record, but then this one song started coming together, it's pretty brutal.

"I've always wanted to do really, really heavy music and after hearing this, both Aaron and myself thought we needed some crazy, sick singer on it. We just sat around tossing names out for a bit, nothing really was sticking and then Aaron says, 'I got it...Ihsahn' and it was one of those moments where you knew that was the answer all along, it just hadn't been unlocked in your mind yet.

"Anyway, a few short emails back and forth and we had his vocal track in. It came out amazing. I can't wait for you to hear it.

"Ihsahn, thanks again, it's an honor to have you on my record."

Other musicians who have recorded guest appearances on Loomis' new solo album include fellow axemen Marty Friedman (ex-MEGADETH), Tony Macalpine and Chris Poland (ex-MEGADETH).

Isto não me anda a convencer muito... mas como são só excertos há que esperar.

Olha lá. Tu que estás em cima do acontecimento. Disponibilizaram alguma faixa do novo de A Forest of Stars?

[Nhec]

Não.
Os tipos da Prophecy é que já têm aquilo em mãos.
Pode ser que não tarde e esteja o álbum para escuta como é habitual neles.

Also, cheira-me que Les Discrets vai lançar um álbum muito influenciado no trabalho deles em Amesoeurs.
Assim como Alcest fez.

[Brunhu]

Não.

Pois, então é mesmo uma questão de esperar uns dias.

Max Cavaleira sobre o novo álbum de Soulfy:

"I'm really excited. I can feel something about it that's a bit different to the other records. It's our heaviest record and it's heavier than anything I ever did with Sepultura."

Agora fiquei curioso.

[Dante]

Sou rapaz pra apostar que a única coisa boa que esse disco tem é o nome.

E o de Swallow The Sun, que tal?
