¡Gothenburg Metal a La Carta!
Image not found or type unknown www.juventudrebelde.cu Image not found or type unknown Portada del disco Static impulse de James Labrie. Autor: Internet Publicado: 21/09/2017 | 05:03 pm ¡Gothenburg metal a la carta! Publicado: Jueves 25 noviembre 2010 | 02:34:40 am. Publicado por: Joaquín Borges-Triana, Joaquín Borges-Triana En la más reciente remesa de grabaciones foráneas que manos amigas me han hecho llegar, uno de los materiales que me ha cautivado es el álbum Static impulse, disco puesto en circulación por el sello Incide Out Music y acreditado a James LaBrie, vocalista del mítico grupo Dream Theater. Salido al mercado a fines del pasado mes de septiembre, la primera referencia favorable que tuve acerca del fonograma vino de la mano de mi buen amigo Manuel Santín Valdés y, ni corto ni perezoso, me di a la tarea de conseguir el CD. Para quienes no estén al tanto del devenir artístico de James LaBrie, les diré que además de su desempeño con Dream Theater, él se ha involucrado en proyectos tan atractivos como Explorers Club y Mullmuzzler, así como ha intervenido en grabaciones de Fates Warning, Shadow Gallery, Ayreon y en los discos tributo a leyendas del rock, entre las que cabría destacar a Emerson, Lake & Palmer, Queen y Rush. Paralelo a dicha intensa actividad en fonogramas de diversos colegas y en el quehacer de los Theater, desde 2005 LaBrie también lleva adelante su propia carrera personal. En aquel año grabó el CD Elements of persuasion, con la evidente intención de demostrarle a su público que a él le interesa asumir diversas aristas del panorama del rock y el metal de nuestros días y no solo las áreas con las que suele identificársele.

As far as live dates go, I’m looking for the right opportunities – it is still an ambition of mine to fill the ‘special guest’ slot for a professional band. I have also begun writing material for the follow-up to ‘Infinite Persistence’, which is shaping up nicely…expect more thunderous stadium rock in the near future!’ www.danieltrigger.co.uk ALREADY GONE ‘Chapter 1’ is the new album from Swedish melodic rockers ETERNAL, with a slick crisp production and it baffles me as to why bands like Eternal remain unsigned. ‘Cross The Line’ is sprinkled in keyboards and is a catchy melodic dream. Christer comes over sounding like Anders Eklund from House Of Shakira crossed with Mark Boals and ‘Arrival to Earth’ is the breathtaking album from South David Readman from Pink Cream 69, while the song itself Bend sensations PURE STAR MOVEMENT. PSM border on is maybe a little Axel Rudi Pell in style. The Europe meets modern melodic/progressive rock influences and is rich in Masterplan crispness of ‘Dead Or Alive’ is a good melodic, diversity and heartfelt musical passion. ‘Unstoppable’ is while ‘Human’ is a little tighter with a punchy chorus and stunning commercial modern rock in style, with the vocals solid guitars in the vein of Domain and PC69. ‘Ray Of Light’ is almost like Kip Winger in the high parts. Musically the song another catchy ditty, a faster paced song, a little Royal Hunt is progressive, modern progressive rock if you will.

Derek Sherinian Graces November Cover
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE October 4, 2011 DEREK SHERINIAN GRACES NOVEMBER COVER OF KEYBOARD Current Member of Black Country Communion, and former Dream Theater Keyboardist is joined by Joe Bonamassa, Steve Stevens, Steve Lukather, Tony MacAlpine, and Simon Phillips on Recently Released Oceana Los Angeles --- Derek Sherinian has been tapped by Keyboard as a “Keyboard Hero for A New Generation.” “In the ‘70s and part of the ‘80’s, demigods like Keith Emerson, Rick Wakeman, and Jon Lord topped the charts and battled each other…for rock supremacy,” and closes “With each new chapter in his career, Sherinian has risen even higher into the rare pantheon of keyboard legends.” As the decades have witnessed drastic evolution in technology and significant innovations in genre-bending and sound, so too is there a widespread variance in public perception that defines a keyboard hero. Inevitably it comes down to delivering indelible compositions and performances, a quality that Keyboard sees in Sherinian’s long resume as they position his legacy well in stating, “ Where you find heavy, you’ll probably find Derek, who’s thick sounds and guitaristic approach to soloing stand as tall as the baddest of six-string slingers.” Sherinian’s latest offering Oceana was just released by Music Theories, a division of the Mascot Label Group. Sherinian has performed for millions via the vehicles of Black Country Communion (of which he is a current member alongside Glenn Hughes, Jason Bonham, Joe Bonamassa), Dream Theater, Alice Cooper, Buddy Miles, and as an off-stage performer accompanying KISS. He also enjoyed tenures with Billy Idol, Yngwie Malmsteen and many others.

You Might Be a Proghole If... 1. the Word "Mellotron"
You Might Be a Proghole if... ● 1. The word "mellotron" causes a strange tingling in your private parts. ● 2. You refer to Yes' lead singer as "the holy prophet Jon Anderson." ● 3. You blame Phil Collins for "driving Peter Gabriel out of Genesis." ● 4. You love the albums "Invisible Touch," "90125," and "Love Beach", but are ashamed to admit it. ● 5. You actually liked SH's "Not Everybody's Gold." ● 6. You know what a firth is. ● 7. You believe the talent of a drummer is commensurate with the size of his drum set. ● 8. You consider lyrics to be wasted time between solos. ● 9. You go to a King Crimson concert and take notes. ● 10. You look down on any keyboardist who is "not willing" to haul around a real Hammond B3. ● 11. You prefer Bruford to White, noting with knowing condescension that "groove and feel are way overrated." ● 12. You actually like Steve Howe's electric guitar tone. ● 13. Your ménage a trios fantasy involves you, Emerson, and Wakeman. ● 14. You find nothing comical about Robert Fripp, and are willing to kick anybody's ass that does. ● 15. The prefix labels of "Canterbury", "melodic", "symphonic", and "neo" before the word "prog" all simply mean "sucky". ● 16. You've named all the fish in your aquarium the names of past and present Yes members. ● 17. the words to "Close to the Edge" have profound meaning in your life. ● 18. you've done time or community service for striking someone who said, "I love Yes. Owner of a Lonely Heart rocked!" ● 19.
