Sabaton: Pranks, Porn, And Carolus Rex

Last night, Hollywood experienced SABATON’s CD Release Party for Carolus Rex at The Key Club.  The venue was packed from wall-to-wall with fans chanting “SA-BA-TON! SA-BA-TON!” in unison as the band delivered a stellar, high-energy, crowd-pleasing show.  

In his pre-show interview with The Gauntlet, SABATON frontman Joakim Brodén discussed tour pranks involving Guitar Hero guitars, the inspiration behind recording Carolus Rex both in English and Swedish, “beer auditioning” their new members, and sets the record straight about porn & their live show.

 

View the video interview here.

 

Read The Gauntlet’s “Live from the Release Party” blog here.

Carolus Rex was released in North America this past Tuesday.  The Swedish power metallers collaborated with well-known Swedish historian Bengt Liljegren to create lyrics about the Kingdom of Sweden between the years of 1561 and 1721.  

View the official lyric video for SABATON’s “Lifetime Of War” on YouTube in English and in the band’s native Swedish

 

SABATON closed out their North American tour last night; they play the Circo Volador in Mexico City tomorrow night before they fly to Warsaw, Poland for some promotion & secret shows.

Charm City Devils Confirms Additional Shows

As CHARM CITY DEVILS continue to travel around the U.S. on their “Sinners Ball Tour” in support of their SINS album (out now via Fat Lady Music), additional shows are now being added, supporting Taproot (starting May 30) and Theory Of A Deadman (starting July 20), that will keep them on the road into the Fall. 

 The first single from SINS, a cover of “Man Of Constant Sorrow” (from the Grammy®-winning soundtrack of the George Clooney Oscar®-nominated film “O Brother, Where Art Thou?”), generates new adds at Active Rock radio every week.  It’s currently being spinned on 37 stations and sits in the Top 25 on the Active Rock charts.  A video for the song can be seen here:  http://bit.ly/IvUtsn.  And the lyric video with over 268,000 views can be seen here:  http://bit.ly/wDUuy2.
 
A live CHARM CITY DEVILS show is not one to be missed.  Of a recent concert in their hometown (Baltimore), Shockwavemagzine.com praised:  “…the boys delivered it tonight, Rock and Roll style, broken strings and all, gritty and heartfelt connecting with the fans in attendance tonight.  The crowd was captivated or in tune with the guys tonight.  This is and was Rock and Roll, it’s what it’s all about, the music and the passion and the connection with the people.  Charm City Devils, the people’s band tonight.”
 
And the album’s been garnering rave reviews since its April 10 release, including:
 
“…(SINS) is ideal for fans of straight-up two-guitar rock with some edge…Charm City Devils has brought a quasi-retro, trend-free sound to their latest effort and may begin to see the benefits of staying true to that particular style.”
--Thecelebritycafe.com
 
“As much as I loved the band’s debut album, LET’S ROCK-N-ROLL, SINS simply blows that album out of the water.  ‘Man Of Constant Sorrow’ is the best cover song I have listened to in a long, long time.  Charm City Devils have taken this 100 year old folk song, and turned into something completely their own. I think they did an outstanding job with this cover…John Allen and company have crafted a bunch of catchy tunes, many of which ought to be hits for Charm City Devils…Don’t miss out on one of the best hard rock albums of 2012!”
--Hardrockhideout.com
 
“From the opening crash of ‘Spite,’ through to the heavy rock sound of ‘Unstoppable’ into the riff-fueled ‘All You’ll Ever Need,’ SINS is a true rock album with all of the polish and sound necessary to climb the charts.”
--Staticmultimedia.com
 
 “SINS takes the band to some memorable heights through the course of eleven tracks…the kind of record you’d hear playing loud and proud in a bar or on the national radio waves…Give Charm City Devils a chance with this one.”
--Audiopinions.net

The 69 Eyes Working On New Album

Finnish assassins of the light THE 69 EYES are currently hard at work on their tenth studio album in Stockholm, Sweden.  The new album will reference the band’s trademark “goth’n’roll” sound best exemplified on the albums Blessed Be from 2000 and Paris Kills from 2002.

“The last album was recorded in Hollywood adding that special L.A. glam flavor to our sound,” states vocalist Jyrki Linnankivi (aka Jyrki69).  “Now this time – as this album is our ‘Made in Sweden’ record – our melodic, Scandinavian melancholy side is rising to the top!”

THE 69 EYES have paired up with the Swedish production team On The Verge to bring back the beauty in their sound.

The band’s new album will be released worldwide via Nuclear Blast Records this fall and is the follow-up to 2009’s Back In Blood, which was produced by American Grammy Award-winning producer/engineer Matt Hyde (Slayer, Hatebreed, Monster Magnet).
