New York City extreme metal band Flaming Tusk has released their
self-produced four song EP "Abigail" onto the internet.
Metal e-zine Chronicles of Chaos wrote the record up in their Demos section,
giving it a 3.5 out of 5 and saying
"The debut EP _Abagail_ from NYC
metal-heads Flaming Tusk seems to be a solid piece of music, incorporating, with
ease, musical styles from a wide range of metal genres, from dashes of hardcore
through to some gloomy doom. A particular stand out track is the closer song "26
Legions", a great show of all the influences the band have, in a single song,
and just over nine minutes. All three of the other songs show some quality heavy
metal."
"Abigail" can be downloaded or streamed for free by visiting Flaming Tusk's
official website, http://www.flamingtusk.com, or by going directly to their
bandcamp page at http://tusk.bandcamp.mu.

VOUGAN & Metal Music Promotions team up to launch online CD sales of Vougan's debut CD "Mind Exceeding"
Here's the release as printed by www.metalunderground.com
Vougan Signs Online Distribution Deal To Make Debut Release Available Worldwide posted Oct 23, 2008 at 10:16 AM by deathbringer
Vougan, the progressive power metal band from Brazil, have struck a deal to sell copies of their debut CD, "Mind Exceeding," via online sales through www.metalmusicpromotions.com.
"Mind Exceeding" was initially released in the latter half of 2007 to a strong response in their home country of Brazil. The band have recently signed a contract with the Japanese label, Soundholic, to distribute the CD throughout Japan.
Metal Music Promotions, LLC (MMP), an independent artist development, music marketing, and band promotion company, have long been advocates of the talents of Vougan. Billed as part of the new model music industry, the company strives to assist unsigned and/or indie artists in career development. Taking the young Brazilian band under their wing, MMP have assumed the role of media contact, and U.S.A. representation for Vougan. CD sales were the next step, logically.
While the web page does make Vougan's debut CD available to many who may have never gotten the chance to purchase it, this is ny no means full scale distribution. MMP is currently researching other options, and looks to distribute "Mind Exceeding" througout The United States, Canada, and Europe in the near future.

WANT A FREE LAWN TICKET TO SEE JUDAS PRIEST'S METAL MASTERS TOUR
Posted by robertr994 on Monday, June 09 @ 14:42:29 CDT (505 reads)
YOU MAY BE IN LUCK!
Yes, you did indeed read that right. While supplies last, when you purchase any
configuration (regular cd edition, limited edition-deluxe hard-bound version and
limited edition deluxe box ( 3LP's, 2 CD, book and poster) available only at
Best Buy) of the initial pressing of Judas Priest's double disc concept album, 'Nostradamus'
(release date - June 17th), specially marked CD's will contain an insert with a
exclusive code inside the CD package for one free lawn ticket to see Judas
Priest on selected dates of the Metal Masters tour this summer, courtesy of Live
Nation (see below for a complete list). Visit www.judaspriest.com for details on
this special offer. This seemingly too-good-to-be-true offer will be good while
supplies last. Also, this offer will not pertain to all the dates of the Metal
Masters tour (see below for complete list of dates that the offer is good for).
The Metal Masters tour will undoubtedly be the top metal concert attraction of
the summer. In addition to a headlining performance by Judas Priest, fans will
also be treated to sets by Heaven & Hell, Motorhead, and Testament. "As ever, we
look forward to screaming out loud with our metal maniac fans when we hit the
road," enthuses Priest singer, Rob Halford. "The Priest is back!"
The tour, produced by Live Nation, will be Priest's first thorough sets of U.S.
dates in nearly three years, and will be in support of the group's
aforementioned 'Nostradamus' release. Long in the works, 'Nostradamus' was
recorded in the UK, and takes epic storytelling to a whole new level, as it
recounts the life of this mysterious, world-known 16th century French prophet.
Some of the events that Nostradamus experts have interpreted as some of his
predictions include the great fire of London in 1666, the rise of Adolf Hitler,
and most recently, 9-11, among countless other renowned events.
"For me, 'Nostradamus' has been a musical journey without comparison," adds
guitarist KK Downing. "The intrigue and mystery that surrounds this revered man
has expanded my perception of heavy metal to the highest plateau and enabled me
to reach the outer limits of my imagination and transport unique feelings and
emotions to the instrument that allows me to express myself."
Praiseworthy advance reviews of 'Nostradamus' have only caused the buzz to grow
around Priest's 16th studio release overall. Case in point, a review by Eddie
Trunk (host of the syndicated radio show 'Eddie Trunk Rocks'), in which he
raved, "Priest touches on so much new ground and really pushed the envelope on
some things.
The album takes you on a nearly two-hour journey. It is without a doubt best
looked at as a complete work as all true concept albums are. You can really see
it living out on a stage. It sounds like Priest have truly created something
special and once again lived up to their rightful billing as 'Metal Gods'."
As to why they chose to make a concept album about Nostradamus, Glenn Tipton
explains: "We didn't - he chose us. We feel it was meant to be!"
Soon, the Metal Gods will be destroying a concert stage near you.
