  • Rock Album Discography Last Up-Date: September 27Th, 2021
    Rock Album Discography Last up-date: September 27th, 2021 Rock Album Discography “Music was my first love, and it will be my last” was the first line of the virteous song “Music” on the album “Rebel”, which was produced by Alan Parson, sung by John Miles, and released I n 1976. From my point of view, there is no other citation, which more properly expresses the emotional impact of music to human beings. People come and go, but music remains forever, since acoustic waves are not bound to matter like monuments, paintings, or sculptures. In contrast, music as sound in general is transmitted by matter vibrations and can be reproduced independent of space and time. In this way, music is able to connect humans from the earliest high cultures to people of our present societies all over the world. Music is indeed a universal language and likely not restricted to our planetary society. The importance of music to the human society is also underlined by the Voyager mission: Both Voyager spacecrafts, which were launched at August 20th and September 05th, 1977, are bound for the stars, now, after their visits to the outer planets of our solar system (mission status: https://voyager.jpl.nasa.gov/mission/status/). They carry a gold- plated copper phonograph record, which comprises 90 minutes of music selected from all cultures next to sounds, spoken messages, and images from our planet Earth. There is rather little hope that any extraterrestrial form of life will ever come along the Voyager spacecrafts. But if this is yet going to happen they are likely able to understand the sound of music from these records at least.

  • Neues Video Als Vorgeschmack Auf´S Kommende Album Walter White Jr Kocht Sein Süppchen Mit 3 Doors Down
    Veröffentlichen am 11. März ihr neues Album: Die US-Rocker 3 Doors Down. Neues Video als Vorgeschmack auf´s kommende Album Walter White Jr kocht sein Süppchen mit 3 Doors Down 27. Februar 2016, Von: Redaktion, Foto(s): Dove Shore In dieser Woche veröffentlichte die US-amerikanische Rockband 3 Doors Down ihre neue Single „In The Dark“ samt Videoclip aus ihrem kommenden Album „Us And The Night“, das für den 11. März angekündigt ist. Im Video gab es prominente Unterstützung – von keinem anderen als Breaking Bad-Star RJ Mitte, Fans besser bekannt als Walter White Junior. "Ich hatte eine großartige Zeit bei den Dreharbeiten zu dem Video. Ich habe hier mit Leuten gearbeitet, die meine Freunde sind“, so RJ Mitte über die Zusammenarbeit mit 3 Doors Down und den Videodreh. „Ein Musikvideo zu produzieren ist, als drehe man einen Minifilm, du musst etwas mit der Musik verbinden, um die Geschichte so erzählen zu können, wie sich die Band das vorstellt. Ich glaube, wir haben das sehr gut geschafft. Ich war immer schon 3 Doors Down Fan und somit war das natürlich ein ganz besonderes Projekt für mich und eine tolle Erfahrung". Wie 3 Doors Down-Frontmann Brad Arnold berichtet, brauchte die Band für einen für sie eher untypischen Song ein ebenso untypisches Video. Dies wurde schließlich von Magnus Jonsson und Martin Landgreve umgesetzt. 3 Doors Down veröffentlichten ihr letztes Studioalbum „Time Of My Life“ 2011 und konnten sich damit auf Platz 3 der Billboard Top 200 Charts platzieren. Ein Jahr später folgte ein „Greatest Hits“- Album und unermüdliche Touren. Im Verlauf des letzten Jahres entstand schließlich das neue Werk „Us And The Night“ in den 27.

  • 3 Doors Down Us and the Night Album Download Us and the Night
    3 doors down us and the night album download Us and the Night. Last time we saw 3 Doors Down it was in 2011, when the post-alt quintet started to take stock of the onset of middle age on the monotone Time of My Life. Looking straight into the abyss caused the band to fracture, with the group losing founding member guitarist Matt Roberts and longtime bassist Todd Harrell, leaving vocalist Brad Arnold firmly at the helm. Arnold retained drummer Greg Upchurch, kicked Chris Henderson up to lead guitar, added new guitarist Chet Roberts and bassist Justin Biltonen, then hired renowned heavy rock producer Matt Wallace to make 2016's Us and the Night. Despite its nocturnal title, Us and the Night is by many measures a brighter affair than Time of My Life: the guitars are still cranked to the max and the rhythms would fill a stadium but the tenor is lighter, the band spending equal time on affirmations ("Everybody's got a right to change," they cry on "Believe It") and sly sleaze ("In the Dark" -- as in "She likes to do it in the dark" -- is Nickelback by any other name). If 3 Doors Down favor wide strokes over specificity, that only underscores how they're attracted to the elements that drift along in the mainstream current, appropriating shopworn mass culture so they can spin it into something bigger, louder, and simpler. To their credit, these instincts sound better here than they have on the last couple records because they embrace their essence, how they want to be broader and burlier than the rest, how they want reflection to seem like celebration and parties to be a dark night of the soul.
