For Immediate Release Rock Legends Lucifer's Friend Release First New For Immediate Release Rock Legends Lucifer's Friend Release First New Studio Album “Too Late To Hate” In Three Decades! OUT NOW! London, UK - Much to the excitement of music fans worldwide, rock legends Lucifer's Friend have released their new studio album titled “Too Late To Hate”! This is the band's first true NEW STUDIO ALBUM since 1981! Lucifer's Friend reformed in 2015 and since then has been playing high profile festival concerts such as the HEADLINE act on 4 Sound Stage the SWEDEN ROCK FESTIVAL and at the ROCK OF AGES and LORELEY festivals too. The band features core original members John Lawton (ex-URIAH HEEP), Peter Hesslein and Dieter Horns along with long term members Jogi Wichmann and Stephan Eggert. “'Too Late To Hate'....the new studio album, was recorded off the back of our 'comeback' performance at the Sweden Rock Festival. The impetus we gained after recording 4 new studio tracks for the 'Awakening' album was what we needed. Plus the feedback from the 'Live At Sweden Rock Festival' CD, brought about a feeling that we could take on some 'unfinished business'... Lucifer's Friend has been over the years, mostly encamped in the studio recording material that has stood the test of time... However the new studio album 'Too Late To Hate' with 12 original tracks is a sign that we are still very capable of producing good material and bringing it live on stage.” - John Lawton. Lucifer's Friend formed in 1970 with their influential and ground-breaking self-titled album, famous among connoisseurs of 70's hard rock. Its heavy and majestic overtones made it a pioneer release in rock music. The group went on to release six albums in that decade. In 1976 Lucifer's Friend suffered a hard blow when British vocalist John Lawton joined Uriah Heep. The band broke up in 1982 and briefly reformed in 1994 as Lucifer's Friend 2 for the album “Sumo Grip”. Now Lucifer's Friend is back, after 30 years with their highly anticipated new album “Too Late To Hate”!

  • En Fallstudie På Sweden Rock Festival
    Musikfestivaler som Turistiskt Dragplåster -En fallstudie på Sweden Rock Festival __________________________________________________ Music Festivals as a Touristic Draw - A case study on Sweden Rock Festival Författare: Carina Koski Ämne: Kandidatuppsats i företagsekonomi 15 hp Program: Turism och Upplevelseprogrammet Termin: Vårterminen 2009 Handledare: Bengt Jönsson Abstract Lately, more and more music festivals have emerged in Sweden. People’s desire and need to visit these events only seems to increase. Cultural tourism and music tourism has developed into a significant and important part of the experience industry and it employs more and more people within the tourism industry. The purpose of this paper is to investigate which effects this can have on the local community. Focus is held on the touristic and economic impact on the nearby municipality and region. The paper is based on a case study on Sweden Rock Festival, which is one of Swedens largest music festivals with a heavy-metal direction. Sweden Rock Festival is located in the south of Sweden in a small municipality called Sölvesborg. Sölvesborg has about 17 000 inhabitants and each year some 33 200 festival visitors decend on the area to attend the festival. To investigate the touristic and economic impact that Sweden Rock Festival has on Sölvesborg, interviews have been conducted. These interviews have been done by either telephone or by e-mail with people from the municipality, the Sweden Rock Festival organization and people with connections to the local business life. Also, two experienced festival attenders have been interviewed to investigate the visitors use of the area’s supply of tourism attractions besides Sweden Rock Festival.

  • We Are Very Proud to Have You on Greek Rebels, We Believe That You
    We are very proud to have you on Greek Rebels, we believe that you are actually one of the 'hot' names out there in the European hard rock scene nowadays, so thank you very much for your time. We also have recently reviewed your new project, under the name Nordic Union, which is a really cool album. What is the reception so far, from the media, the fans? Are you satisfied with it? I would say, the reception has been fantastic, its phenomenal to be honest. The reviews are great, it's even getting airplay on the radio, it's getting on the charts, even the mainstream medias in Sweden are picking it up and writing about it. I never ever experienced that they write about something like this. Yes, I just saw that you posted that you are on nu. 4 or nu. 5 on the Swedish hard rock charts today, which is really good. You never had any prior success on the charts with your other bands or projects? Yes, with Eclipse and with W.E.T. we actually went to nu.1, a couple of years ago. If it wasn't, well I mean, that almost the same day Dream Theater released their album, just one week earlier Megadeth and Avantasia the same day, there are so many good bands and big names. If we would have released it a month later, maybe the competition would not have been so big, maybe we could have landed on nu. 1 Yes, so I wanted to ask you, you have collaborated for Nordic Union with a very big singer, Ronnie Atkins.

Following the very sad loss of Lee Kerslake in September 2020, Popoff — having interviewed various band members over the past few years — was all set to conduct another interview with Ken Hensley in mid‐ November when the tragic news of Ken’s sudden departure reached Heep fans around the world. Undeterred, the decision that had already been made to immortalise Uriah Heep with a comprehensive visual biography remained. RELEASE Popoff’s celebrated and detailed timeline takes us through more than fifty years of massive rock history from this much‐loved band. From the early days with legendary front man David Byron, through the John Lawton years; the John Sloman and Pete Goalby fronted periods and from 1986 with Bernie Shaw taking centre stage; all eras are comprehensively covered. This differs from previous Uriah Heep books with the inclusion of so many previously unpublished photos, along with rare memorabilia and artefacts that makes this an indispensable addition to the vast Uriah Heep catalogue.

  • SYSTRARNA HÅRDROCK Diskurser Inom Kvinnliga Hårdrocksmusikers Lärandemiljöer
    SYSTRARNA HÅRDROCK Diskurser inom kvinnliga hårdrocksmusikers lärandemiljöer Jakob Wickzell Examensarbete, 30 hp Examensarbete – estetiska ämnen, 30 hp Vt 2019 Sammanfattning Denna studie utforskar kvinnors förutsättningar för att lära sig hårdrocksmusicerande, med ett fokus på vilken roll olika miljöer spelar för lärandet. Även tidigare forskning inom hårdrock och genusforskning inom musicerande, samt skola och didaktikperspektiv lyfts. Den teoretiska utgångspunkten är diskursiv med en metod för diskursanalys i Foucault-stil. I studien genomförs intervjuer med fyra kvinnliga hårdrocksmusiker. Studiens deltagare har lärt sig att musicera i skola, fritidsgårdar, workshops, i sina band, via internet och vid liveframträdanden. Musiklärare har ökat möjligheterna till lärande för individerna. För vissa har det varit viktigt med förebilder, både manliga och kvinnliga. Bemötande från publik och medmusiker har till stor del varit positivt, men de har även erfarenheter utav sexistiska kommenterar, från bland annat journalister och ljudtekniker. Deltagarna är inte eniga i om de är för eller emot kvotering inom hårdrocksmusiken. Att vara kvinna i ett mansdominerat sammanhang ökar mängden uppmärksamhet som bandet får, vilket kan vara upplevas både positivt och negativt. Nyckelord: musikdidaktik, genus, diskursanalys, hårdrockspedagogik, rockskola Innehållsförteckning 1.

  • Sweden Rock Festivalen
    SWEDEN ROCK FESTIVALEN Ett kulturellt och socialt fenomen? Uppsats för Etnologi fortsättningskurs C Uppsala Universitet, Campus Gotland Handledare: Owe Ronström Författare: Pauline Pousár Höstterminen 2016 Abstract. Sweden Rock Festival is one of the biggest festivals in Sweden and its focus on rock music in its different forms keeps the audience coming back and keeps the festival going. Time and time again the festival is noticed as being one of the safer festivals based on the amount of reported assaults and reported accidents. The purpose of this paper is to try to find the reason why the Sweden Rock Festival is perceived as safe. Looking at our rules and regulations harassment, violent crimes and sexual predatory behaviour is more common on a city street in daylight than it is at the festival even if some men and women are barely wearing clothes, are intoxicated and at times sleeping alone in the grass in a secluded area. The materials put together show that people choose to co-exist and care for each other to keep the festival safe and welcoming. The paper is based on my own observations at the festival as well as interviews with other visitors, these were conducted in person. I have found statistics from the police and materials written about the festival. I have chosen to use the theory of homophily in some parts of the analysis but I am focusing on performance theories as well as the values and morals aspect to get a full picture of what actually happens when you set foot at the Sweden Rock Festival.

  • Crowbar Symmetry in Black ENG
    “Symmetry In Black” CD • LP • Digital Download European Release Date: Ma y 26 th , 2014 Hope ya’ love it slow, hard and heavy, because the rebirth of CROWBAR is upon us. Make no mistake: the massively influential merchants of sludge never went away. But as the band’s 25 th year of existence dawns and their tenth full length album is unleashed upon the world, cofounder, frontman and riff- making warhorse Kirk Windstein is determined to give the band he unapologetically calls his “baby” the total dedication it demands. The unrestrained push and relentless concentration surrounding Symmetry in Black is music to the ears - figuratively and literally – for new adherents and the legion of underground fans and fellow musicians who swore allegiance to Crowbar long ago. Symmetry in Black is the perfect album to arrive in the number ten slot of the Crowbar catalog, a penultimate achievement embodying the early sloth of doom touchstone Obedience Thru Suffering (1991), the moody dissonance of modern classic Odd Fellows Rest (1998) and the crisp thunder of the album’s predecessor, Sever the Wicked Hand (2011), with nuggets of Crowbar’s storied history sprinkled throughout. The crushing signature sound of Crowbar is at its peak on Symmetry in Black , the band’s most diverse yet cohesive release. It was coproduced with fellow New Orleans resident Duane Simoneaux, who worked on Sever the Wicked Hand and mixed by Josh Wilbur, whose diverse credits include work with Lamb Of God, Gojira and Killer Be Killed. “We needed to move our sound forward but at the same time, make sure everything stayed 100% true to who and what we are,” Windstein explains.
