Changes bi bilo lepo, ali da gostuje Ralf.  :bigblue: Bilo bi ko uzivo `93 na legendarnoj turneji.

The new Gamma Ray Album "To The Metal" will be released on January 29th, 2010 by "ear MUSIC" (a project of "Edel")!

 

The new Gamma Ray offering is thoroughbred and classy, fast-paced and deep, and holds a few surprises in store which distinguish the band from the mass of acts who try their hand at similar styles and sounds.

The line-up consisting of Kai Hansen (vocals/guitar), Dirk Schlächter (bass), Henjo Richter (guitar) and Daniel Zimmermann (drums) recorded a total of twelve new songs at their own studio in Hamburg in autumn 2009. Ten of them will feature on the regular album release, and two additional bonus tracks can be heard on different editions of the album, the band’s stylistic range including a full-throttle number such as ‘Rise’, the rhythmic and melodically diverse ‘Time To Live’, and the multilayered anthem ‘All You Need To Know’ (which has given rise to speculation about a spectacular guest singer), as well as the sensitive ballad ‘No Need To Cry’, composer/lyricist Dirk Schlächter’s attempt to come to terms with the untimely death of his father. Of course, there’s also the awesome title track – first introduced at the Wacken 2009 open-air and a number of festivals in Scandinavia and considered absolutely indispensible by the fans, which Gamma Ray recorded as a classic Metal track in the midtempo range, making it a real anthem.

The atmospherically dense ‘Empathy’ sees Gamma Ray prove their amazing musical potential again, which keeps manifesting itself in exceptional and eminently interesting compositions. This song includes all the features of a diverse, exciting and multi-faceted number, in other words: sweeping sounds, cool grooves, a progressive touch and then – almost as if from nowhere – a chorus which seriously bowls you over. Subsequently, the band soar up to an almost oriental-sounding solo part, changing key several times within the track.

 

The album will be available in four versions:

1) as a regular jewel case CD

2) as a limited edition featuring an additional DVD (including an exciting making-of)

3) as a red vinyl in gatefold packaging

4) as a collectors’ edition featuring CD and 7” vinyl with 2 unreleased tracks, completely hand-signed

 

The elaborate cover was designed by Herve Monjeaud, so the visual side of the new album is perfectly covered. Gamma Ray will present all this and much more from 6th February 2010, precisely one week after the release of their latest album, as part of an extensive world tour. Freedom Call had just been confirmed as special guests of the “To The Metal” tour, with Secret Sphere as support act.

Ako je suditi po pesmi To the metal, koja je nikad providniji Judas Priest ripoff, album neće biti nešto posebno, ali sigurno ću ga poslušati. Empathy mi deluje zanimljivo, verovatno će biti poslednja stvar na albumu, i nadam se jednako dobra kao Insurrection. :rockdevil:

Ljudi, to je Kai Hensen, moze da sedi i cese kitu na bini, ipak ce mu se svi klanjati. xD

 

Nego, ako album ne bude nish posebno, nadam se da ce k'o W.A.S.P.- dve pesmice s najnovijeg, i onda sve proverene legendarne stvari. :D

 

Jaooooooooo, jedva cekam!

Imena pesama ne da obecavaju, nego mi dodje da se pokrijem mokrim cebetom.

 

Pred prosli album sam se bio bas naprzio i ocekivanja imao astronomska, ovaj docekujem mnogo mirnije, tj. vise se radujem 'certu nego albumu, daleko vise.

Baš zato što je Judas Priest ripoff, očekujem jebeno dobar album.

Poenta je u tome što Gamma ray ne treba da bude Judas Priest ripoff, nego treba da bude Gamma ray. Ako mi treba Judas Priest ripoff, slušaću neki od gomile neinspirisanih bendova koji nisu sposobni da formiraju sopstveni stil, a Gamma ray to sigurno nije.

Prvo, Gamma Ray od samih početaka kopira razne bendove. Kai je svoj stil formirao dok je bio u Helloween-u. Sve ovo kasnije su samo razni pokušaji recikliranja, a kad postane dosadno, okreće se bendovima poput Maidena i Judasa, koje ne samo da kopira, već im doslovno krade melodije i rifove. Što meni odgovara, naravno, jer bolje da liče na Maidene i Judase, nego da ne liče ni na šta (zato mi se poslednja 3 albuma najviše sviđaju). Drugo, nisu "neinspirisani", već "neinspirativni" bendovi, ako si na to mislio. Treće, među bendovima koji kopiraju Judase ima bendova koji su itekako uspeli da formiraju sopstveni stil, da postanu Judas+. Naročito ih možeš naći među perifernim, ali vrlo živahnim scenama Južne Amerike, istočne Evrope, Japana... Četvrto, ako stvarno očekuješ od Gamma Ray da na ovom albumu pokažu nešto drugo u odnosu na ovo - hajde neka to i pokažu. Ja ne očekujem i više mi prija ovako.

Moze da neko okaci linkove za ova dva izdanja:

 

The Spirit, Single, 1991

http://www.metal-archives.com/release.php?id=38655

Sa ovoga mi treba samo Money (Live).

 

Power Of Metal, Live Split, 1993

http://www.metal-archives.com/release.php?id=117489

Sa ovoga mi treba samo Gamma Ray deo, audio verzija koncerta, posto video imam, a los je zvuk kad konvertujem.

 

Nalazio sam samo crkle linkove i torrente bez seedera...

Dobro, znaci moracemo garant da prezivimo "TTM" pesmu uzivo -_- zazvucacu k'o redovna metal goticarka sa ovim kukanjem, al' imena pesama me baaaas odbijaju...

Posted

Шта знам... Мени су песме које "славе метал" некако испразне и свега пар њих су ми задржале пажњу...

"Heavy metal universe" је (у "свемирском" жаргону :haha: ) неколико светлосних година испред "To the metal".

HM Universe konza pesma! :rockdevil:

 

Nego, meni imena deluju kao kako- GR standardne stvari (ovo Shine Forever npr), izuzev ovog WannaBeManowar sranja od pesme koje im ocito ne lezi (jbg, jedan je Manowar :D).
