[thebowerypresents]

Little Dragon – Brooklyn Steel – October 16, 2023

Little Dragon have been steadily putting out music since the band’s eponymous debut LP arrived back in 2007. Their seventh studio album, Slugs of Love, dropped this past July, and for the past three weeks the Swedish funk-tinged electronic-pop quartet has been crisscrossing North America in support of the new tunes. And on Monday, they closed out their tour in style at a Brooklyn Steel.

HammerFall kündigen Avenge The Fallen für August an

HammerFall kündigen stolz ihr 13. Studioalbum „Avenge the Fallen“ an, das am 9. August 2024 über Nuclear Blast Records erscheinen wird. Richtig, weniger als ein Jahr nach der letzten Verbeugung der „United Forces“-Tour ist das Quintett, bestehend aus Gitarrist Oscar Dronjak, Sänger Joacim Cans, Bassist Fredrik Larsson, Gitarrist Pontus Norgen und Schlagzeuger David Wallin, mit zehn brandneuen, soliden Stücken klassischen Heavy Metals zurück. „Dies ist unser 13. Album“, sagt Joacim Cans mit Stolz. „Wie kann man nach 13 Alben immer noch relevant bleiben? Es ist so ähnlich wie die erste Zeile des Songs 'Avenge The Fallen': 'Was ist schlimmer, derjenige zu sein, der gestorben ist, oder derjenige, der überlebt hat'. Denkt darüber nach, denn es ist eine schwierige Frage“. Er fährt fort: „Wollen wir eine Band sein, die neue Musik veröffentlicht, nur um wieder auf Tour zu gehen, oder wollen wir uns immer wieder selbst herausfordern und pushen? In Zeiten, in denen die Leute immer weniger Aufmerksamkeitsspanne haben, denken wir immer noch in Form von ganzen Alben. Ein paar gute Songs machen noch kein starkes Album. Ein starkes Album entsteht durch ein Album voller großartiger Songs, und das ist es, was wir mit 'Avenge the Fallen' abliefern“. Um den Fans einen Vorgeschmack auf das zu geben, was sie erwartet, veröffentlicht die Band die erste Single und das Video zu „Hail to the King“. Ein Song, der auf der Straße geboren wurde. „Ich begann mit der Arbeit an ‚Hail to the King‘, während ich mit Helloween auf Tournee in den USA war“, erinnert sich Oscar Dronjak. „Gegen Ende der Tournee war ich kurz davor, den Song fertig zu stellen, also ging ich direkt nach dem Gig in Los Angeles zum Bus, wo ich wie ein Verrückter arbeitete, um die letzten Teile zusammen zu bekommen. Das war dann auch die Show, bei der einer meiner Lieblingswrestler, Chris Jericho, zu Besuch kam. Es war auch die Show, bei der Fredrik sein Idol Frank Bello von Anthrax traf, und Joacim traf Jay Ruston, den Produzenten von Armored Saints, Avatar, Anthrax, Corey Taylor und anderen, der nach diesem Treffen zustimmte, die Vocals für 'Avenge the Fallen' zu produzieren! Das habe ich alles verpasst, aber ich habe wenigstens einen tollen Song daraus gemacht, haha“! Tracklist: 01. Avenge the Fallen 02. The End Justifies 03. Freedom 04. Hail to the King 05.

Little Dragon Put on Intimate Show at Sold-Out Music Hall of Williamsburg

Little Dragon – Music Hall of Williamsburg – July 13, 2023

For more than two decades, the Swedish band Little Dragon has produced music that’s captured an exuberance for life. Their seventh studio album, Slugs of Love, released last Friday, continues that joie de vivre. The genre-blending LP creates an effortless cohesion of sounds, from electronic to neo-soul to indie pop. Pitchfork declared it “another serving of danceable pop-soul and R&B, this time infused with an unwavering sense of optimism.” Ahead of their North American and European fall tours to support Slugs, the quartet graced the stage of a sold-out Music Hall of Williamsburg on Thursday night.

Shrouded in a neon yellow veil, lead singer Yukimi Nagano opened with “Another Lover,” from their 2020 release, New Me, Same Us. With a backdrop of that album’s artwork, Little Dragon continued with two more from that record — “Rush” and “Hold On” — before digging into more recent material. Nagano traversed the stage from right to left as she delivered their latest single, “Tumbling Dice.” While past shows featured fan-favorite “Ritual Union” as a dance catalyst, last night it was slowed to a more downtempo groove, which the crowd happily swayed along to across the floor. While on the dancehall number “Kenneth,” a fan joined in on the tambourine.

The latter half of the performance was a dance party with the basslines on “Slugs of Love” coaxing wild movement, and the crescendo of “Klapp Klapp” commanding everyone’s attention. (Drummer Erik Bodin ascending the gearboxes behind him, arms aloft for added emphasis, couldn’t have hurt either.) The set closed with Fredrik Wallin’s reverb-ing bass on “Wildfire,” which rattled the rafters where I was perched. 

The Brooklyn crowd was peppered with thanks throughout the night, and it wasn’t a surprise when the quartet returned for an encore. Nagano shed her metallic pink robe to reveal a tee and skirt. Fittingly she sang the seasonally appropriate opening line from “Where You Belong”: “If a summer last, stay by my side.” The barefoot keyboardist Håkan Wirenstrand left his station to join Bodin at the drum kit for an epic percussion-off before the night was capped with an oldie but goodie ballad “Twice.” —Sharlene Chiu | @Shar0ck

MERCILESS “The Awakening”, LP 1989 (One of the most legendary and ultimate Death/Thrash Metal album spawned from Scandinavia. Total Cult !)

“No more pain, my birth's no longer denied I'm your god, obey me or die Light of the sun, at last I am free Born with vengeance, I'm your destiny In my dreams wall of despair In my mind I knew it's nothing there You'll pay for all my suffering and pain Soon I will rule this earthly domain Hate is the only word I know And my heart's black and so cold The awakening Lonely I am, that's the way it's gonna be When you're mine, you're mine for eternity Now your soul belongs to me So down on your fucking knees I'll take your soul into the dark Seas of blood from your bleeding heart Now this fuckin' world is mine As you know I will never die”

Wolfsnächte Tour 2024 Wölfe, Ritter und Dwarfs; das erwartet dich am 16. Oktober 2024 in The Hall in Zürich, wenn Powerwolf, HammerFall und Wind Rose die Bühne stürmen! Tickets findest du unter ticketcorner.ch POWERWOLF - ein Name, der jedem Fan des traditionellen Heavy Metals mit Freude erfüllt.  Das 15 jährige Jubiläum wurde 2020 mit einem Best-Of-Album gefeiert, das die Highlights aller sechs bisher erschienenen Studioalben vereint. Darunter sowohl Dauerbrenner aus den Frühwerken als auch neuere Hits von den mit Gold ausgezeichneten Platten Blessed & Possessed und The Sacrament Of Sin, wie die Platin-Hitsingle Demons Are A Girl's Best Friend. Nur 12 Monate später, ist das wohl erfolgreichste Rudel der zeitgenössischen deutschen Metal-Fauna mit gefletschten Reisszähnen bereit für den nächsten blutigen Streifzug. Das neue Album Call Of The Wild überrascht und erfreut in jeder Phase mit stilistischen Weiterentwicklungen in einem noch nie dagewesenen Ausmass! Faster Than The Flame - ein Opener, der das Feuer in jedem Fan entfacht, genauso wie die Opening Tracks Amen & Attack oder Fire & Forgive. Faster Than The Flame, trägt schon in den ersten Akkorden die unverkennbare Handschrift der kreativen Köpfe um Hauptsongwriter Matthew Greywolf und demonstriert eindrucksvoll, dass es dem Pack im Laufe der letzten anderthalb Dekaden zweifelsohne gelungen ist, seinen ganz eigenen, unverwechselbaren Sound zu kreieren. Ganz gleich, wie sehr sich die Kultur und die Welt im Allgemeinen verändern, Heavy Metal bleibt bestehen. Heavy Metal ermächtigt, fesselt, gibt Kraft und überdauert Modeerscheinungen. Dasselbe kann man von HammerFall sagen. Seit ihrer Gründung 1993 in Göteborg, Schweden, hat das Quintett, bestehend aus Oscar Dronjak und Pontus Norgen an der Gitarre, Fredrik Larsson am Bass, David Wallin am Schlagzeug und Joacim Cans als Lead Singer, die vielen Stürme wechselnder Trends in der Musikwelt überstanden, um als Pioniere weiterhin die Fahne des Heavy Metal hochzuhalten.
