The band will be appearing as special guests alongside Sir Tom Jones, where they will be talking about their upcoming new album, 'Head Down', and performing three acoustic tracks, including a brand new track titled "Jordan". The show will be available to listen to online afterwards here RIVAL SONS guitarist SCOTT HOLIDAY comments: "I've grown up on re-runs of the Old Grey Whistle Test... That show has been quite significant to my musical upbringing. It's really one of the greatest musical programs EVER, in my opinion. I think about Humble Pie doing 'Black Coffee', The Faces doing 'I'm Losing You', and so, so, SO many more. These performances were better than the album versions, capturing rock 'n' roll at its most magical, and Bob Harris has kept up the tradition with his BBC radio show. So, it was a great honor to be invited down to his show, and chat, and to play a few tunes. We wanted to give him something special, so we performed a song off the new album ('Jordan') for the first time on his show. Bob was great to chat with, charming as ever, and totally kind to us. It's fellas like Mr. Harris that've helped reveal some of the special magic of rock 'n' roll, and in hanging out with him, it felt like a great reminder of that magic." Pre-order the album now on iTunes here. RIVAL SONS are currently on tour in Europe.

http://www.zonaria.com http://www.facebook.com/zonariaofficial http://www.twitter.com/zonaria _ They're back! Rebounding from the bottom of hell itself to come back and play. Infernal Death – a band which, together with Vader, Imperator, Armagedon and Betrayer, created the Polish Death metal scene from scratch – has finally produced their debut album. The band, who date back to 1991, finally present their official product containing 10 brutal tracks very much related to old school death metal.
The album is complemented with a bonus in the form of the band’s demo from 1992 entitled “Twilight Tales.” It’s a return to the past on the 20th anniversary of the release of the demo. www.myspace.com/wydawnictwopsycho www.wydawnictwopsycho.com www.facebook.com/pages/Wydawnictwo-Psycho/139328649458036 http://www.youtube.com/user/WydMuzPsycho Over Your Threshold post first single, track listing and artwork for debut album 'Facticity'20/6/2012 _Over Your Threshold have posted the first single taken off their debut album 'Facticity'. Check out the landing at www.metalblade.com/overyourthreshold and stream the sixth song off the album, 'Antic' Make also sure to check out the pre-order links!
'Facticity' will be released August 24th / 27th via Metal Blade Records in Europe and on August 28th in North America! The band comments on their debut and the first single: "The writing and recording process of 'Facticity' has extended over a longer period. Thus, each song imparts different elements and impressions caused by our different musical influences in the course of time. Above all 'Antic' is a blasting track with a straight structure ending in a powerful and groovy chorus. The instrumental interlude contrasts the heavy parts with a neoclassical flow within the second half of the song." Facticity track listing: 1. Cortical Blindness 2. Contextual Fluctuating 3. Obscure Mind Stasis 4. Self Exhibition 5. Desolation Row 6. Antic 7. Abdicated 8. Body Part Illusion 9. Facticity The band has also posted a first album trailer where they present the album front art and a first excerpt from Facticity!
