Night Prowler Posted July 27, 2011 Report Posted July 27, 2011 (edited) Although Dystopia, Iced Earth’s 10th studio offering, is not a concept album, founder Jon Schaffer admits there are unifying themes to several of the songs – and even an appearance by band mascot “Set Abominae.” “I’ve always been fascinated by the darker side of life,” Schaffer said during a break from master tracking Iced Earth’s forthcoming album. “Movies like Metropolis, Brazil, and The Matrix resonate with me. The same for albums like 2112, The Wall, and of course Operation:Mindcrime. Their images of a soulless, repressive society stuck with me over the years. It must be the sci-fi fan in me.” In much the same way Horror Show (Iced Earth’s tribute to classic characters from literature and movies) was born, Schaffer said his interest in dystopian themes in music and movies led him to try his hand at that genre as well – even paying homage on the new album to the movies Dark City, V For Vendetta, and Soylent Green. The end result is Iced Earth meets the nightmarish offspring of Brave New World and Blade Runner. Of special interest to long-time fans are two songs on Dystopia (the title track and “Tragedy & Triumph”) that feature the return of the “Something Wicked” storyline and “Set Abominae” – who, when last seen in The Crucible of Man [2008], had taken his position as ruler of the world. “The opening song is a step back timeline-wise from the ‘Come What May’ track,” said Schaffer. “‘Come What May’ [the last track on Crucible] sets the scenario that it’s up to us and the decisions we make that will determine the future of the human race. These two songs [on Dystopia] take place at a time when people are in highly controlled prison-like city states, and their eventual emancipation in the closer, ‘Tragedy & Triumph’.” In an uncanny case of art imitating life, Schaffer said Set Abominae fit perfectly with the general theme of Dystopia. “I remember it hit me like a ton of bricks in ’97, the whole Something Wicked story did,” Schaffer said. “I thought, ‘Man, this is going to be so cool.’ Many years later, we were on tour for Crucible and we were doing an interview over in Eastern Europe. A buddy of mine said, ‘You know, Jon, this whole Something Wicked thing could be true.’ I thought about it a moment and said, ‘Well, I don’t know about that. But there are some creepy parallels in contemporary life.’” “So as I was thinking about all of the great movies, albums, and books with dystopian themes, I remembered that conversation and it occurred to me that the Something Wicked story could continue in a few tracks here very nicely,” Schaffer said. Schaffer admits the recording of Dystopia has been especially challenging because of the band’s summer festival gigs requiring him to criss-cross the ocean numerous times. Despite the challenges, Schaffer says working with new vocalist Stu Block is “a pleasure.” “You just can’t ask for a better attitude,” said Schaffer. “Stu is so excited to be here. He brings a youthful exuberance to the band, which is a lot of fun. And he’s a real dude. He’s down to earth, and willing to try anything that Jim [Morris, co-producer, engineer] or I throw at him. He’s stepping into the shoes in a very natural way.” Schaffer continues: “We’re opening up a part of his voice and a style of singing that he didn’t even really know he had. We’re exploring this whole new range. And we’re just getting started. I believe Stu will continue to grow – and has the potential to grow – into one of the greats, one of the guys that will go down in metal history. If he stays on this course, with the attitude that he has, his willingness to learn, and his passion, he’s destined for really great things. I firmly believe that.” Song Titles on Dystopia: Dystopia Anthem Days Of Rage Soylent Green V Boiling Point Anguish Of Youth Iron Will Dark City End Of Innocence Equilibrium Tragedy & Triumph Dystopia is scheduled for release in Europe on October 17th, and in the U.S. on October 18th both via Century Media. Two bonus tracks are also being recording for inclusion on special editions of the album. The release of Dystopia will be followed by the most extensive world tour Iced Earth has ever undertaken. The European leg of the 2011-2012 World Dystopia Tour has been posted on the band’s official web site, and all official social-media sites. The tour begins October 30th in Bochum, Germany.

DBrave Posted July 27, 2011 Report Posted July 27, 2011 svidja mi se ovo. I ideja i tematika za novi album. Samo jos da cujemo kako se Stu uklapa u Iced, nadam se odlicnom albumu Quote
Night Prowler Posted July 27, 2011 Report Posted July 27, 2011 Mene zanima da li ce i koliko koristiti growl/scream. Ali ne sumnjam da ce biti dobar album, samo da pogode produkciju kako treba. Quote
Lotus Posted July 27, 2011 Report Posted July 27, 2011 Iz ove perspektive gledano Stu se ne uklapa u Iced Earth, ali da ipak sacekamo album. Quote
Night Prowler Posted August 1, 2011 Report Posted August 1, 2011 Bice opet re-recordovana jedna pesma za novi album. Za sad se ne zna koja. Quote
Angelystor Posted August 4, 2011 Report Posted August 4, 2011 Cover mi je smesan, naslovi pesama mid-nyah level, a jos s obzirom na prethodna dva albuma...ukratko, ne ocekuje se mnogo. Quote

metallicus Posted August 6, 2011 Report Posted August 6, 2011 Ma vratiće se čim mu dođe iz dupeta u glavu. Nastup je bio odličan.Prilično sam siguran da će Stu dostojno zamjeniti Barlowa,kao što je to svojevremeno uradio Tim The Ripper. 1 Quote
Night Prowler Posted August 6, 2011 Report Posted August 6, 2011 Ma bice dobar Stu, ali opet ce faliti Barlow. Isto kao i Ripper-Halford situacija: dobar je Ripper ali je Halford nezamenjiv. Quote
Talvi Posted August 6, 2011 Report Posted August 6, 2011 Ma bice dobar Stu, ali opet ce faliti Barlow. Isto kao i Ripper-Barlow situacija: dobar je Ripper ali je Barlow nezamenjiv. Fixed. Quote
metallicus Posted August 6, 2011 Report Posted August 6, 2011 Zna li se razlog Mattovog odlaska? Quote
Night Prowler Posted August 6, 2011 Report Posted August 6, 2011 Barlow cites his commitment to his family and the need for ICED EARTH to tour more as the reasons for his retirement. Quote
Angelystor Posted August 7, 2011 Report Posted August 7, 2011 E u dvanaest lepih pizdih materina kada ne odgledah ovo, a gledah raspale Bodome juce Quote

DBrave Posted August 7, 2011 Report Posted August 7, 2011 sta je to ? Jel to od pre par dana sa Wackena ? Ja skinuo i ovaj njihov dupli DVD sa 3 koncerta ali nikako da stignem da pogledam... Quote
Angelystor Posted August 9, 2011 Report Posted August 9, 2011 Odgledah Wacken snimak, odlicni behu, Barlow nije frontmen, to je sila. Nema sumnje, metal ostaje lisen za jos jednog genijalnog vokala, mogu samo sebi jesti iznutrice sto i njega ne uspeh nekada da vidim... Quote
Despot! Posted August 22, 2011 Report Posted August 22, 2011 (edited) Iced Earth su po meni bili ubedljivo najbolji bend na Wackenu 2011! Doboro, možda zato što im je to poslednji nastup sa Barlow-om, ali atmosfera među ljudima je bila fantastična i neponovljiva! Odabir pesama isto pefektan, ali zanimljivo nije bila ''Melancholy''... Edited August 22, 2011 by Despot! Quote
Despot! Posted August 22, 2011 Report Posted August 22, 2011 Novi album IE ''Dystopia'' pre par trenutaka stigao u redakciju Metal Sound. Kreće preslušavanje, mada ja od ovog albuma ne očekujem ništa... Quote
