Pink Cream 69 - Ceremonial Audio CD

Clockwork Angels has been a long time coming. Rush foreshadowed it in 2010 by releasing "BU2B," and "Caravan" to radio. The next single, "Headlong Flight," didn't appear until 2012. Co-produced with Nick Raskulinecz (who also worked on 2007's Snakes & Arrows), Clockwork Angels is a return to the concept album by the band that perfected it on 2112 in 1976. It centers on a loose narrative about a young man following his dreams. He struggles with inner ...

Ceremonial music CDs Black Country Communion's self-titled debut met with so much critical and, in some markets, even commercial success that the multi-talented super-quartet wasted little time -- an almost worrisomely short amount of time, in fact -- before getting to work on this sophomore follow-up. But, thankfully, striking while the iron was hot did not equate with going through the motions on 2011's unassumingly named 2; nor, for that matter, did it entail the sort of battle between mega-egos that is so ...

Ceremonial CD music The debut album from metal supergroup Adrenaline Mob, Omertá showcases the talents of lead singer Russell Allen of Symphony X, guitar virtuoso/bassist Mike Orlando, and former Dream Theater drummer Mike Portnoy. Produced by Adrenaline Mob and Jay Ruston (Anthrax, Steel Panther), the album features a handful of blazingly high-octane, screaming, and hard-as-heck heavy metal cuts, including the leadoff track "Undaunted," the devil horn-worthy "Psychosane," and even a cover of Duran Duran's "Come Undone" featuring additional vocals from Halestorm singer/guitarist Lzzy ...

Ceremonial album The sixth album by Greek power metal outfit Firewind (now destined to achieve a much higher stateside profile, given that lead guitarist/founder Gus G. has been hired as Zakk Wylde's replacement by Ozzy Osbourne) is not radically different from their previous work. It's a blistering dose of European power metal, loaded with clumsy lyrics, cheesy keyboards, anthemic/operatic melodies, and tons of wild guitar shredding. The songs are occasionally kinda boneheaded -- once you read the title, you know what the ...

Ceremonial music CDs 2010 release, a collaboration between Metal vocalist Michael Kiske (Helloween, Place Vendome) and American singer Amanda Somerville. Eighteen months in the making, a massive production, two videoclips and one documentary later, The Kiske-Somerville collaboration album has all the trademarks of a real Rock event in 2010. The collaboration was born as a concept put together thanks to the input of Frontiers Records President Serafino Perugino. This exciting album sees Mat Sinner (Primal Fear, Sinner) and Magnus Karlsson (Starbreaker, Primal Fear) ...

Ceremonial songs How much does the Norwegian gentleman named Jorn Lande love heavy rock and metal? Well, let us count the ways: on top of his two decades spent fronting far too many heavy metal bands to mention (Masterplan, Ark, Avantasia, Vagabond, etc.) and recording seven solo albums under the edited Jorn handle, his eighth was dedicated entirely to covering the songs of the late metal singing legend Ronnie James Dio. That, my friends, is a lot of love for metal ...
