Earlier this year the Danish band Evil Masquerade released their fourth album called FADE TO BLACK. I got together with bandleader and guitar player Henrik Flyman and a lot has happened in the band since we last talked. This interview is about the new album, the new line up, label and much much more. Here you get all the things you possibly would like to know about the band Evil Masquerade.

Stratovarius - Jens Johansson
Interviewed by EvilG, Transcription by Duke
Keyboardist and (often) mouthpiece for Statrovarius, Jens Johansson, spoke to us about the triumphant return of Finland's premier power metal band. As many a fan and even casual observers know, this band has been though a lot of inner turmoil over the few years. The band had been on ice, near death, or almost defunct for a while. Whether it was because of their former label going tits up or the mental stability of now former guitarist and band visionary, Timo Tolkki, the dust has finally settled and from it all the band (sans Tolkki) is back and have returned with their strongest album since INFINITE (2000). We spoke to Jens about the new album and how it was that the band which was teetering on the edge are now back to restore and hopefully take the band onwards to new horizons.

Daedalus is an Italian act that perhaps isn’t well known to the great masses. I decided to change that when I heard their second album called THE NEVER ENDING ILLUSION which has the potential of becoming a ground breaking masterpiece in the bands own genre. Progressive metal is the music of Daedalus and I had the opportunity to speak with guitarist Andrea Torretta.

Richard Mentzer of Manimal
Interviewed by Alan Gilkeson
Soaring vocals, flowing rhythms, tasty licks, Manimal walk the fine line between Progressive and Power Metal. Released independently, their new album THE DARKEST ROOM reached number 36 on the Swedish charts, forcing AFM to rise up and sign them. Now the stage is set for Manimal to surprise the Metal world when the album is officially released on June 19th, 2009.

From Hell's Heart: June 2009
"My Unpopular Opinion"
Each of us took the opportunity to break from the pack and voice our unpopular or out of step views on anything metal related, like “Judas Priest is totally overrated,” “FORBIDDEN is the best Sabbath album ever,” or “RELOAD is the bestest 'tallica album and they need to wear more green eyeliner again! harhar!” Here's what the staff of metal rules had to say......

NOCTURNUS 2008 - Mike Browning
Interview by Luxi Lahtinen
Live pictures by Luxi Lahtinen & Sari Kanerva
Thanks to Erich Heintzelman for the transcription
Mike Browning does not need any introduction. His merits in such legendary satanic death metal bands as Morbid Angel, Incubus Nocturnus, Acheron, etc., should speak volumes for who Mike Browning is. The man is a living legend so to speak.
His latest band, After Death, got into a touring mood last October, doing 12 dates across the Europe, but this time Mike and his other band fellows decided to do the tour under Nocturnus´ moniker. The band concentrated on playing Nocturnus songs only off from the highly successful THE KEY album, plus they also played a couple of After Death songs - as well as they did a couple of old Morbid Angel songs that either Mike wrote himself for Morbid Angel´s ABOMINATIONS OF DESOLATION album, or co-write them together with Trey Azathoth.
Mike tells in this interview why he decided to do this tour with the After Death line-up, and not the original Nocturnus line-up that recorded both THE KEY and THRESHOLDS albums. He also reveals the possibility to continue doing more Nocturnus shows during 2009 - as well as speaking straight from his heart on how he felt when he was fired from his own band by the other band members, that he formed back in 1987.
This is a really interesting and in-depth interview that Mike was kind enough to do for Metal-Rules.com, so be sure to read it in order to understand why certain things happened the way they happened in the first place regarding Nocturnus especially. |
