Right, their album is so good that I have literally stop listening to them in the car and actually listens to them in my computer. Better speakers and all, but most importantly their new album demands my full attention. I just can't listen enough while driving, it just doesn't do them justice.

Wow.... so we can only know when the new album comes out if the new gal vocal is better than tarja....or if nightwish gonna change their style and direction?

oh yeah, i see people already started selling pirated version of megadeth's united abomination!! the original not out yet ? i didnt see them in the store. i buy only original beb.....only original can give better audio quality

oh yeah- i just bought avantasia metal opera part 1. havent listened to it yet

Hey guys - any metal gigs coming up? no bands coming to visit Msia?

disturbed,NIN,linkin park, all nu metal core rojak .
You want REAL metal go buy
emperor + Godflesh + naglfar + dimmu borgir + Kreator + vader + Behemoth/

Err...I'm personally into Arch Enemy (Melodic Death ftw!), Lamb of God, Dream Theater, Pantera etc. Anyone else like those bands?

I also recommend Ephel Duath. Kickass jazz metal band. Yep, jazz metal!!

i wonder if anyone notice that Dimmu borgir is probably the band with the strongest line up that hasnt changed for the last 4 albums on the exception of the drummer ?

WTF NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! 



Emanuel Fialik of Pilgrim Management GmbH, which represents German industrial metal pioneers RAMMSTEIN, has issued the following press release:

"On the 13th of July 2007 the industrial gothic top act RAMMSTEIN announces that after the release of the next studio album, which is about to get finished, the current singer and frontman Till Lindemann will leave the band.
"Till's decision is mainly based on the increasing inharmoniousness within the band and was well deliberated. He will head now for other challenges which can be a solo career or maybe a new project (as of his own words).
"The band decided not to quit but announce a new singer. There is a clear statement coming from Richard Kruspe and Christoph Schneider that 'nobody ever can replace Till Lindemann' but since 'we have still so much fun doing RAMMSTEIN we looked for a new singer which is charismatic in his own way without copying Till.'
"The new singer which was found and signed to be the new RAMMSTEIN frontman is the co-founder and ex-member of the electro industrial act KMFDM and current singer of SLICK IDIOT - En Esch - who recently moved to Berlin to join the band.
"We all will miss Till Lindemann who gave us many years of joy by listening to his unique grinding voice. Please welcome the talented En Esch - Till's footsteps are big, but maybe he can dry our tears rapidly."
RAMMSTEIN will issue its "Völkerball" DVD in the U.S. in September. The exact release date will be announced soon.
RAMMSTEIN's latest album, "Rosenrot", received its long-overdue U.S. release in March 2006 via Universal Music. The CD, which was certified platinum in Germany for sales in excess of 200,000 copies within two weeks of release in October 2005, topped the official album chart in Germany, Austria and Finland, and landed at No. 2 in Sweden and Denmark, No. 4 in the Netherlands and the Czech Republic, No. 5 in France, No. 6 in Mexico, No. 11 in Italy and No. 29 in the U.K. In addition, "Rosenrot" achieved gold status in Austria, the Czech Republic and Switzerland.

RAMMSTEIN's track "Mein Teil" was nominated in the "Best Metal Performance" category at the 2006 Grammy Awards.
