(Por Tiempo Limitado) https://teespring.com/es/stores/biblioteca-del-metal-1 Saxon es una banda británica de heavy metal formada en 1976 en Barnsley, Reino Unido, considerados como líderes de la Nueva ola del heavy metal británico junto a Iron Maiden y Def Leppard. Tuvieron un breve pero excelente período de popularidad en su propio país durante la primera mitad de los años ochenta gracias a los discos Wheels of Steel, Strong Arm of the Law, Denim and Leather y el álbum en vivo The Eagle Has Landed. A pesar de incursionar en el glam metal, sonido que mandaba el mercado mundial en la segunda mitad de los ochenta con discos como Rock the Nations y Destiny, nunca pudieron alcanzar el éxito en los Estados Unidos como sí lo hicieron otras bandas británicas, aun así lograron un éxito considerable en países de Europa continental y Japón. Ya a mediados de los noventa y con el sonido característico de vuelta, obtuvieron nuevamente el reconocimiento popular principalmente en Europa, convirtiéndose en artistas obligados de los mayores festivales europeos de metal como el Wacken Open Air, el Download Festival y el Hellfest, entre otros. Con una carrera de cuarenta años sobre los escenarios y con más de ocho álbumes en los UK Albums Chart y con otros numerosos sencillos en las listas británicas, los convierte en banda clave para el heavy metal e incluso han sido nombrados como grandes influencias para bandas como Metallica, Bathory, Pantera, Slayer, Anthrax, Sodom, Mötley Crüe y Megadeth, entre otras. Por otro lado y hasta mediados de 2014, se estimó que sus ventas superaban las 15 millones de copias en todo el mundo. Saxon se fundó en 1976 en la ciudad de Barnsley cuando el guitarrista Graham Oliver y el bajista Steve Dawson unieron fuerzas con el vocalista Biff Byford y con el también guitarrista Paul Quinn, que provenían de la banda local Coast. Junto a ellos se unió el baterista David Ward y se llamaron inicialmente Son of a Bitch, sin embargo, en 1978 este último renunció a la banda cediendo su puesto a Pete Gill y con ello también cambiaron su nombre al actual. Durante ese periodo participaron en tocatas en clubes de algunas ciudades de Inglaterra e incluso abrieron en ocasiones para las bandas Ian Gillan Band y Heavy Metal Kids. Debido al éxito del punk en el Reino Unido, en ese entonces les fue difícil encontrar apoyo discográfico en su propio país, por lo cual firmaron con la discográfica francesa Carrere Records a fines de 1978. Debutaron al año siguiente con el álbum Saxon que les permitió salir de gira por el país inglés abriendo para las bandas Motörhead y Nazareth. En 1980 publicaron su segundo disco Wheels of Steel, considerado por los fanáticos como esencial del movimiento NWOBHM. De esta placa destacaron dos sencillos; el que da título al disco y «747 (Strangers in the Night)», los que entraron en la lista UK Singles Chart en los puestos 20 y 13 respectivamente. El éxito se vio reflejado además al obtener meses después su primer disco de oro en su país, al superar las 100 000 copias vendidas. Tras el lanzamiento del álbum se internaron en su respectiva gira promocional, destacando su participación en el primer Monsters of Rock celebrado el 16 de agosto de 1980, donde compartieron escenario con Rainbow, Scorpions, Judas Priest, April Wine, Riot y Touch ante más de 35 000 espectadores. Solo cinco meses del lanzamiento de Wheels of Steel lanzaron su tercera producción llamada Strong Arm of the Law, el que siguió cosechando éxito en el país británico donde obtuvo nuevamente disco de oro y se posicionó en la lista de aquel país en el puesto 11. De este se extrajo el sencillo «Dallas 1 PM», canción inspirada en el asesinato del expresidente estadounidense John F Kennedy. Este éxito se vio nuevamente en el cuarto álbum Denim and Leather, que entró en la novena posición de los UK Albums Chart en 1981. Además, vendió más de 60 000 copias solo meses después de su lanzamiento, obteniendo disco de plata otorgado por la British Phonographic Industry. También entró en las listas de otros países de Europa e incluso y al mismo tiempo, el sencillo «Motorcycle Man» de su segundo disco se posicionó en las listas de Japón, manteniéndose por más de cinco meses en ellas. Antes de iniciar la gira Denim and Leather Tour Pete Gill se lastimó la mano, lo que no le permitió tocar la batería y que obligó a ceder su puesto a Nigel Glockler, que por ese entonces era músico de sesión de Toyah Willcox. Durante el marco de dicho tour, el músico Ozzy Osbourne fue el encargado de abrir para ellos en las fechas por Europa y el país británico. Ya en 1982 tocaron por primera vez en los Estados Unidos con 38 fechas en total, de cuyas presentaciones destacó el haber tocado cuatro noches seguidas a lleno total en el Whisky a Go Go de Los Ángeles, California y otras tres más en la ciudad de San Francisco. Tras esto retornaron a su país natal y publicaron su primer disco en vivo The Eagle Has Landed, el que entró en el puesto 5 en el Reino Unido manteniéndose por 19 semanas consecutivas y obtuvo nuevamente disco de plata en dicho país. El 21 de agosto del mismo año volvieron a presentarse en el Monsters of Rock junto a las bandas Status Quo, Uriah Heep y Anvil entre otras, convirtiéndose en la primera banda en tocar dos veces consecutivas en dicho festival. Durante los meses de octubre y noviembre de 1982 la banda entró a los estudios para lanzar en 1983 su quinto trabajo Power & the Glory, el primero en entrar en la lista Billboard 200 de los Estados Unidos en el puesto 155 y que solo en Los Ángeles vendió más de 15 000 copias en su primera semana. De la misma manera entró en el Reino Unido en el puesto quince. Durante la gira por Europa fueron parte de una de las más recordadas del heavy metal británico, compartiendo escenario junto a Judas Priest y Iron Maiden, y a su vez por los Estados Unidos fueron acompañados por los alemanes Accept. Este fue el último trabajo de los ingleses con el sello francés Carrere, ya que según ellos no se sentían cómodos con las ventas del disco y por el poco apoyo de esta discográfica para con ellos sobre penetrar en el mercado estadounidense. Sin embargo, otros medios afirmaron que era por el engaño de las recaudaciones de ventas por parte del sello para con la banda, por lo que firmaron con la transnacional EMI Music a finales de 1983. En abril de 1984 publicaron Crusader, el primero con el sello EMI Music y que marcó el cambio de sonido de la banda acercándose al glam metal, lo que se vio reflejado en su vestimenta como en su música. A pesar de esto el disco se posicionó en el puesto 18 de los UK Albums Chart y en el puesto 174 en los Estados Unidos. Ya con esta visión en mente, se internaron durante la primera parte de 1984 en una gira por los Estados Unidos junto a Mötley Crüe, cerrando algunas noches los ingleses y otras los norteamericanos. Posteriormente recibieron la invitación por parte de Iron Maiden para retornar a los Estados Unidos como artistas invitados. Por su parte, en 1985 regresaron a Europa para iniciar una nueva gira acompañados por Accept, por Alemania Occidental. En septiembre de 1985 publicaron su séptimo disco de estudio Innocence Is No Excuse, el que no obtuvo buena recepción en su país, ya que solo se posicionó en el puesto 36. Eso sí inició el reconocimiento en el mercado estadounidense donde alcanzó la posición 133, el más alto para un disco de los ingleses en ese país, seguido además por la constante rotación de sus vídeos en la cadena televisiva MTV. En 1986 viajaron a Holanda para grabar un nuevo disco pero esta vez sin su bajista fundador Steve Dawson, que se retiró de la banda por problemas matrimoniales. El resultado fue Rock the Nations donde Biff Byford grabó las partes del bajo, eso sí dándole crédito al joven bajista Paul Johnson que provenía de bandas como Statetrooper y Heritage. Además en este disco participó el pianista inglés Elton John en las canciones «Party Till You Puke» y «Northern Lady». A pesar de ser uno de los más suaves de su carrera se mantuvo en las listas por varias semanas, e incluso tres de sus canciones entraron en los UK Singles Chart. En 1988 lanzaron su último disco con EMI, ya que según los integrantes de la banda esta casa discográfica no quería hacer más discos con ellos. El llamado Destiny ha sido criticado por varios medios que lo consideran como «el disco más malo y patético de la banda». Este contiene una versión de «Ride Like the Wind» del músico Christopher Cross, que se posicionó en el puesto 52 en el Reino Unido. Por otro lado, en una entrevista realizada por la revista Kerrang! al vocalista Biff Byford, mencionó que la discográfica los obligó a adaptarse al mercado americano algo que ellos realmente no querían. Durante la gira el bajista Paul Johnson se retiró de la banda, entrando en su puesto el joven de veintidós años Nibbs Carter. Dentro de esta misma gira y acompañados por Manowar, se grabó su segundo disco en vivo llamado Rock 'n' Roll Gypsies publicado en 1989. Tras este lanzamiento la banda se tomó un receso de los escenarios, apareciendo solo en actos de caridad durante dicho período. Ya en el nuevo decenio la banda volvió a los escenarios durante la corta gira denominada 10 Years of Denim and Leather, con presentaciones en el Reino Unido, Alemania, Austria, Grecia y por la aquel entonces Checoslovaquia, retornando en gran manera a sus viejos y primeros éxitos y recuperando a varios de sus fanáticos. Durante este mismo período firmaron con Virgin Records para su siguiente disco Solid Ball of Rock publicado en 1991, en el que volvieron al heavy metal característico de sus primeros trabajos, pero aún manteniendo algunos sonidos de su etapa con EMI Records. Este disco les permitió además presentarse por primera vez fuera de Europa y los Estados Unidos, llegando a países como Japón, Australia, Uruguay, Paraguay, Argentina, México, Brasil y Nueva Zelanda. Ya en 1992 publicaron su segundo álbum con Virgin, Forever Free, hasta ese entonces el más pesado de la banda desde Innocence Is No Excuse. De este destacó el sencillo «Iron Wheels», canción escrita por Byford y dedicada a su padre, que falleció durante la grabación del disco. Tres años más tarde publicaron Dogs of War el último trabajo de Graham Oliver, que se retiró solo días después de su lanzamiento. Para ocupar su puesto se integró el amigo del baterista Nigel Glockler, el guitarrista Doug Scarratt. En diciembre de 1995 y bajo la gira de soporte del disco Dogs of War, grabaron el cuarto disco en vivo denominado The Eagle Has Landed Part II publicado en 1996. Sin embargo, no obtuvo el éxito esperado a diferencias de sus anteriores trabajos en directo. En el mismo año la banda formó parte del disco tributo a Judas Priest, A Tribute to Judas Priest - Legends of Metal Vol. 1, en donde grabaron el tema «You've Got Another Thing Comin'». En 1997 los ingleses lanzaron el disco Unleash the Beast, el primero con el sello CMC International. La placa tuvo excelente recepción en Europa principalmente en Alemania, Suecia y Suiza. Hasta hoy en día ha sido considerado como un clásico, que incluso sus miembros lo han situado a la par con Dogs of War y Wheels of Steel. A pesar de ser uno de los más pesados de su carrera, destacó la canción semi-acústica «Absent Friends» dedicada a John J.J. Jones, jefe del equipo de la banda que falleció el año anterior. Durante la gira de más de un año y medio tocaron en varios países de Europa y en los Estados Unidos, e incluso fueron parte del Monsters of Rock en Brasil. Además abrieron para Deep Purple en un concierto en la ciudad de Róterdam en Holanda. Poco tiempo después y antes de terminar la gira, el baterista Nigel Glockler se vio obligado a dejar la banda por problemas en su cuello lo que le impedía tocar bien la batería, y que en su reemplazo entró el alemán Fritz Randow famoso por haber sido parte de Victory y de Sinner para terminar dicha gira. Uno de sus últimos shows durante este período fue en el festival Arena Open Air en Holanda, compartiendo escenario junto a Motörhead y Dio. Ya en 1999 publicaron su siguiente disco de estudio llamado Metalhead, el primer trabajo oficial con el baterista Fritz Randow. Este álbum mantuvo el sonido heavy que ya venía desde sus dos discos anteriores y en donde parte de la música fue compuesta por Nigel antes de su retirada. Además dicho trabajo les permitió iniciar una de las giras más grandes de los ingleses, donde destacaron su participación en el festival Bloodstock en el Reino Unido y su primera aparición en el festival Wacken Open Air en Alemania, convirtiéndose en número seguro en las siguientes versiones. En 2001 volvieron a aparecer en el festival alemán donde por primera vez desde los años ochenta, contaron con el águila de luces sobre el escenario. En septiembre del mismo año lanzaron un nuevo disco de estudio llamado Killing Ground, que mantuvo el sonido característico pero menos agresivo que Metalhead y que contiene una versión de la canción «The Court of the Crimson King» original de King Crimson. Gracias al éxito por el continente europeo, el sello EMI Music lanzó algunos compilados de la banda durante los primeros años del nuevo milenio y los vídeos remasterizados en formato DVD; Live In Innocence y The Power & The Glory - Video Anthology. En 2002 y bajo la celebración de los veinticinco años de carrera de la banda se publicó el trabajo Heavy Metal Thunder, disco doble que contiene regrabaciones y remasterizaciones de las canciones clásicas desde su disco debut hasta Killing Ground. Al año siguiente se lanzó el DVD The Saxon Chronicles, que contiene íntegramente el concierto en el festival Wacken de 2001, de igual manera imágenes inéditas del concierto en la ciudad de Esbjerg en Suecia de 1995, y por último, entrevistas y grabaciones exclusivas de sus integrantes de diversas giras mundiales. Ya en 2004 el baterista Fritz Randow se retiró de Saxon para regresar a su antigua banda Victory, tras su reunión. En su reemplazo entró otro alemán, Jörg Michael conocido en el mundo del metal por haber sido parte de bandas como Axel Rudi Pell, Grave Digger y Running Wild, entre otras. Con Michael en la batería la banda publicó en septiembre de 2004 el disco Lionheart cuya gira contó con dos partes marcadas; la primera con Jörg durante el mismo año y la segunda con Nigel Glockler tras el retorno del alemán a Stratovarius, lo que significó el regreso de Nigel tras algunas operaciones y un largo entrenamiento debido a su problema en el cuello. De esta gira se extrajo el material de lo que fue el quinto disco en vivo The Eagle Has Landed Part III, el que contó con dos discos; el primero con las presentaciones dadas principalmente en distintas ciudades de Alemania durante el 2005 y el segundo titulado A Night With the Boys, que solo contó con canciones anteriores de Lionheart, grabadas durante algunas presentaciones en 2004. En marzo de 2007 se publicó The Inner Sanctum, el primero con el baterista Nigel Glockler tras su regreso en 2005, que siguió cosechando éxito entre sus fanáticos a pesar de la incorporación de algunos sonidos más cercanos al power metal y que hasta ese entonces fue considerado por la crítica como el mejor trabajo de los ingleses desde Unleash the Beast de 1997. En 2009 publicaron un nuevo disco de estudio Into the Labyrinth, el que siguió la línea compositiva y la potencia de sus músicos que ya venían desde su trabajo del 2007. En cuanto a la gira fue un total éxito, iniciada en su país junto a la cantante alemana Doro y participando en algunos de los festivales de heavy metal más importantes del viejo continente como el Wacken Open Air y el Sonisphere, por mencionar algunos. A pesar del éxito que trajo la primera parte de la gira, tuvieron un gran problema tras verse forzados a cancelar los tres últimos shows en Europa precisamente en España, ya que tras anunciar la llegada de los ingleses junto a la banda Iced Earth, a mediados de febrero, dieron cancelado las presentaciones por "motivos de programación" de ambas bandas, lo que llevó a cambiarlas a otras fechas. En el mismo año anunciaron a través de su página web el futuro documental sobre la historia desde sus inicios al cual denominaron Heavy Metal Thunder - The Movie. En 2010 y aun bajo la gira Into the Labyrinth World Tour, participaron del festival Download Festival durante el 11 y 13 de junio, lugar en donde interpretaron el disco Wheels of Steel en su totalidad tras el aniversario número treinta de su lanzamiento. En junio de 2011 se lanzó su décimo noveno trabajo Call to Arms, que debutó en el puesto 6 de los UK Rock Albums Chart, mientras que en los Estados Unidos vendió más de 700 copias en su primera semana. Durante las pruebas de sonido en los recintos de once ciudades del Reino Unido la banda cobró tan solo 10 libras esterlinas para un grupo selecto de fanáticos, cuyo dinero recaudado fue donado a las instituciones benéficas para niños Nordoff Robbins Music Therapy y Childline Charities. Durante la gira en 2012, fueron invitados por Judas Priest para tocar juntos en el Hammersmith Apollo de Londres el 26 de mayo. A su vez y en ese mismo año publicaron el DVD Heavy Metal Thunder - Live: Eagles Over Wacken, que contó con una mezcla de vídeos de sus presentaciones en el festival Wacken en sus versiones 2004, 2007 y 2009, el que incluye además de un disco compacto con una presentación dada en 2011 en la ciudad de Glasgow. En marzo de 2013 lanzaron su vigésima producción Sacrifice, con el que giraron por varios países del mundo, llegando incluso a Venezuela. Más tarde en octubre apareció en el mercado el recopilatorio Unplugged and Strung Up, que contó con canciones en versión acústica, remezclas y regrabaciones. En 2014 publicaron un nuevo álbum en vivo llamado St. George's Day Sacrifice - Live in Manchester, que se grabó durante la gira promocional de Sacrifice. A su vez iniciaron una nueva gira denominada Warriors of the Road que contó con Skid Row como artista invitado. En noviembre del mismo año, Biff Byford anunció que grabarían un nuevo álbum y que probablemente podría ser lanzado a mediados del año siguiente. El 1 de agosto de 2015 la banda confirmó la fecha de publicación de su nuevo trabajo de estudio llamado Battering Ram, que salió a la venta el 16 de octubre del mismo año y que fue promocionado con una extensa gira mundial que culminó en octubre de 2017. En el marco de dicho tour, el 1 de junio de 2017 la banda fue víctima de un robo en los camerinos durante su presentación en Umeå, Suecia, extrayéndoles los pasaportes, teléfonos celulares y billeteras. En ese mismo mes la banda anunció el lanzamiento de un nuevo disco de estudio llamado Thunderbolt, que será publicado en febrero de 2018 y que ya cuenta con presentaciones en vivo para promocionarlo, tanto por Europa como por Norteamérica. A mediados de 1997 los exmiembros de la banda Steve Dawson y Graham Oliver inscribieron el nombre de Saxon como marca registrada en el Reino Unido. Esto causó la molestia de Biff Byford, ya que todas las mercancías y productos bajo la marca Saxon quedaba restringido tanto para él como para Paul Quinn. Tras esto Byfford entabló una demanda para invalidar dicha inscripción ya que según él, no cumplía con algunas de las cláusulas. Tras algunos años de disputa, la Alta Corte Británica anuló la inscripción ya que Byfford y Quinn como miembros recurrentes de la banda, tenían más derechos que los demandados por ende tanto el logo, el águila y el nombre en sí quedaban en sus manos. Sin embargo, como Dawson y Oliver son también fundadores de la banda, le concedieron una cláusula con el que podían utilizar el nombre Saxon siempre y cuando agregaran algo a la marca. Por ello y desde esa fecha nació la banda Oliver/Dawson Saxon. Como la mayoría de las bandas nacidas a finales de los setenta y principios de los ochenta dentro de la Nueva ola del heavy metal británico, sus principales influencias han sido las bandas de hard rock y heavy metal de principios de los setenta principalmente europeos como Thin Lizzy, Led Zeppelin, Scorpions, Deep Purple, Black Sabbath, AC/DC, Uriah Heep y Iron Butterfly, entre otras. A su vez ellos han sido considerados grandes influencias del heavy metal y thrash metal durante la segunda mitad de los ochenta y la década de los noventa para bandas como Metallica, Bathory, Megadeth, Celtic Frost, King Diamond y Slayer, entre otras.

(Por Tiempo Limitado) https://teespring.com/es/stores/biblioteca-del-metal-1 En diciembre de 1995 y bajo la gira de soporte del disco Dogs of War, grabaron el cuarto disco en vivo denominado The Eagle Has Landed Part II publicado en 1996. Sin embargo, no obtuvo el éxito esperado a diferencias de sus anteriores trabajos en directo. En el mismo año la banda formó parte del disco tributo a Judas Priest, A Tribute to Judas Priest - Legends of Metal Vol. 1, en donde grabaron el tema «You've Got Another Thing Comin'». En 1997 los ingleses lanzaron el disco Unleash the Beast, el primero con el sello CMC International. La placa tuvo excelente recepción en Europa principalmente en Alemania, Suecia y Suiza. Hasta hoy en día ha sido considerado como un clásico, que incluso sus miembros lo han situado a la par con Dogs of War y Wheels of Steel. A pesar de ser uno de los más pesados de su carrera, destacó la canción semi-acústica «Absent Friends» dedicada a John J.J. Jones, jefe del equipo de la banda que falleció el año anterior. Durante la gira de más de un año y medio tocaron en varios países de Europa y en los Estados Unidos, e incluso fueron parte del Monsters of Rock en Brasil. Además abrieron para Deep Purple en un concierto en la ciudad de Róterdam en Holanda. Poco tiempo después y antes de terminar la gira, el baterista Nigel Glockler se vio obligado a dejar la banda por problemas en su cuello lo que le impedía tocar bien la batería, y que en su reemplazo entró el alemán Fritz Randow famoso por haber sido parte de Victory y de Sinner para terminar dicha gira. Uno de sus últimos shows durante este período fue en el festival Arena Open Air en Holanda, compartiendo escenario junto a Motörhead y Dio. Ya en 1999 publicaron su siguiente disco de estudio llamado Metalhead, el primer trabajo oficial con el baterista Fritz Randow. Este álbum mantuvo el sonido heavy que ya venía desde sus dos discos anteriores y en donde parte de la música fue compuesta por Nigel antes de su retirada. Además dicho trabajo les permitió iniciar una de las giras más grandes de los ingleses, donde destacaron su participación en el festival Bloodstock en el Reino Unido y su primera aparición en el festival Wacken Open Air en Alemania, convirtiéndose en número seguro en las siguientes versiones. En 2001 volvieron a aparecer en el festival alemán donde por primera vez desde los años ochenta, contaron con el águila de luces sobre el escenario. En septiembre del mismo año lanzaron un nuevo disco de estudio llamado Killing Ground, que mantuvo el sonido característico pero menos agresivo que Metalhead y que contiene una versión de la canción «The Court of the Crimson King» original de King Crimson. Gracias al éxito por el continente europeo, el sello EMI Music lanzó algunos compilados de la banda durante los primeros años del nuevo milenio y los vídeos remasterizados en formato DVD; Live In Innocence y The Power & The Glory - Video Anthology. En 2002 y bajo la celebración de los veinticinco años de carrera de la banda se publicó el trabajo Heavy Metal Thunder, disco doble que contiene regrabaciones y remasterizaciones de las canciones clásicas desde su disco debut hasta Killing Ground. Al año siguiente se lanzó el DVD The Saxon Chronicles, que contiene íntegramente el concierto en el festival Wacken de 2001, de igual manera imágenes inéditas del concierto en la ciudad de Esbjerg en Suecia de 1995, y por último, entrevistas y grabaciones exclusivas de sus integrantes de diversas giras mundiales. Ya en 2004 el baterista Fritz Randow se retiró de Saxon para regresar a su antigua banda Victory, tras su reunión. En su reemplazo entró otro alemán, Jörg Michael conocido en el mundo del metal por haber sido parte de bandas como Axel Rudi Pell, Grave Digger y Running Wild, entre otras. Con Michael en la batería la banda publicó en septiembre de 2004 el disco Lionheart cuya gira contó con dos partes marcadas; la primera con Jörg durante el mismo año y la segunda con Nigel Glockler tras el retorno del alemán a Stratovarius, lo que significó el regreso de Nigel tras algunas operaciones y un largo entrenamiento debido a su problema en el cuello. De esta gira se extrajo el material de lo que fue el quinto disco en vivo The Eagle Has Landed Part III, el que contó con dos discos; el primero con las presentaciones dadas principalmente en distintas ciudades de Alemania durante el 2005 y el segundo titulado A Night With the Boys, que solo contó con canciones anteriores de Lionheart, grabadas durante algunas presentaciones en 2004. En marzo de 2007 se publicó The Inner Sanctum, el primero con el baterista Nigel Glockler tras su regreso en 2005, que siguió cosechando éxito entre sus fanáticos a pesar de la incorporación de algunos sonidos más cercanos al power metal y que hasta ese entonces fue considerado por la crítica como el mejor trabajo de los ingleses desde Unleash the Beast de 1997. En 2009 publicaron un nuevo disco de estudio Into the Labyrinth, el que siguió la línea compositiva y la potencia de sus músicos que ya venían desde su trabajo del 2007. En cuanto a la gira fue un total éxito, iniciada en su país junto a la cantante alemana Doro y participando en algunos de los festivales de heavy metal más importantes del viejo continente como el Wacken Open Air y el Sonisphere, por mencionar algunos. A pesar del éxito que trajo la primera parte de la gira, tuvieron un gran problema tras verse forzados a cancelar los tres últimos shows en Europa precisamente en España, ya que tras anunciar la llegada de los ingleses junto a la banda Iced Earth, a mediados de febrero, dieron cancelado las presentaciones por "motivos de programación" de ambas bandas, lo que llevó a cambiarlas a otras fechas. En el mismo año anunciaron a través de su página web el futuro documental sobre la historia desde sus inicios al cual denominaron Heavy Metal Thunder - The Movie. En 2010 y aun bajo la gira Into the Labyrinth World Tour, participaron del festival Download Festival durante el 11 y 13 de junio, lugar en donde interpretaron el disco Wheels of Steel en su totalidad tras el aniversario número treinta de su lanzamiento. En junio de 2011 se lanzó su décimo noveno trabajo Call to Arms, que debutó en el puesto 6 de los UK Rock Albums Chart, mientras que en los Estados Unidos vendió más de 700 copias en su primera semana.

"[A] rare treat… an astute meditation on art, bravery, friendship, love, how to live, and on dying." - Sydney Morning Herald novel review Following a successful series of development readings staged as part of Sydney Festival 2021, Seymour Centre is proud to present the world premiere production of The Museum of Modern Love at Sydney Festival 2022. Adapted from the Stella Prize-winning novel by Heather Rose, The Museum of Modern Love follows New York-based film composer, Arky Levin, a man struggling to live and work in the face of incredible loss. By chance, Arky finds his way to MoMA and sees Marina Abramović in The Artist is Present—a marathon and now-legendary feat of performance art that saw Abramović sitting silent and completely still opposite thousands of museum visitors in the spring of 2010. Arky returns to MoMA again and again, and encounters other viewers also drawn to the exhibit, each with their own reasons for spending hours in the presence of Abramović. As the performance unfolds, so does Arky, and with his life coming back into focus, he finally understands what he must do to move forward. Set against the backdrop of one of the greatest art events in modern history, and blurring the lines between spectator and artist, this transfixing new work explores dying and living, courage and commitment—and meditates on the power of art to unite and connect us, even in an increasingly disconnected world. As part of The Museum of Modern Love, 10 people per performance will have the opportunity to sit on stage and be part of the action. All on-stage ticket holders will need to meet backstage before the show for a briefing and ticket holders will need to stay on stage for the duration of the performance. Further details on the Seymour Centre Website.

10 Lesbian Books We Want As Movies The Lesbian Review Podcast Welcome to The Lesbian Review Podcast, a podcast spin-off of the popular review website TheLesbianReview.com I am Sheena and I have been joined today by Anna a fellow reviewer at TLR. Today we are talking about Books That We Want As Movies. Sheena's List 1 Lethal Affairs by Kim Baldwin and Xenia Alexia (Elite Operatives book 1) Published by Bold Strokes Books Elite operative Domino is no stranger to peril and impossible situations. Trained all her life to be just as comfortable fighting terrorists as mixing with the gala crowd, she is proficient at playing any role necessary to accomplish her objective and believes the cause sanctifies the means. But her latest assignment to investigate journalist Hayley Ward will test more than her skills, ingenuity, and courage, because this time she faces the ultimate dilemma: a choice between loyalty and love. Get it on Amazon 2 Five Moons Rising by Lise MacTague Published by Bella Books Unknown to regular citizens, nightmarish creatures lurk in the dark underbelly of human civilization. The presence of these supranormals (“supras”)—werewolves, vampires, demons—is a closely guarded government secret, as is the existence of a cadre of specially engineered Hunters charged with exterminating them. Code-named Malice, Hunter Mary Alice Nolan was genetically modified and rigorously trained to use her great strength, heightened senses, and killer instincts to track and eliminate supras who prey on the innocent. A loner by choice, her only real link to the human world is her close connection to her mother and sister—until the unthinkable happens… Ruri Samson has been a werewolf for more than a century and is comfortably situated as the Beta of her peaceful pack. Until she is betrayed by the woman she loves and an evil outsider massacres her Alpha and his most loyal followers. Barely escaping with her life, Ruri is forced to tread the perilous path of a lone wolf while vowing vengeance against the usurper and his minions. Although these two powerful women should rightfully despise each other, fate will soon compel them to join forces on a dangerous quest to avenge their loved ones—and will ignite a forbidden passion that neither of them ever imagined. Get it on Amazon 3 The Sublime And Spirited Voyages Of Original Sin by Colette Moody Published by Bold Strokes Books The Gulf of Mexico, 1702: When pirates of the square-rigger Original Sin steal ashore to abduct a doctor to tend to their wounded, they end up settling for the doctor’s attractive fiancée—Celia Pierce, the town seamstress. Together with Gayle Malvern, daughter of wounded pirate captain “Madman” Malvern, Celia becomes a reluctant participant in an unexpectedly thrilling journey through the Caribbean. For Gayle, Celia’s presence is at first a welcome and shapely distraction, but as her attraction to the seamstress deepens, she realizes that Celia comes to mean more to her than is almost certainly prudent. As Celia and Gayle navigate the perilous territories of gypsies, prostitutes, mercenaries, and slave-traders, they forge a partnership born of necessity that Gayle soon hopes will veer away from insurmountable danger—and instead detour directly to her bed. Get it on Amazon 4 Devil’s Rock by Gerri Hill Published by Bella Books Two women vow to bring a killer to justice. Deputy Andrea Sullivan had hoped to leave the horrors of Los Angeles behind her, but the serial murders of college students in peaceful, picturesque Sedona are her nightmare case to solve. The complexities stretch local resources to the limit, and the FBI joins the case with Agent Cameron Ross in the lead. The crime scenes are covered with the trademark signs of the fiendish Patrick Doe, whose handiwork has been investigated by Dallas detective Tori Hunter and others. But where Hunter failed Cameron intends to win. She will break the case, find justice and go home. No distractions. Unfortunately, Deputy Sullivan is very distracting. And Patrick Doe has other plans. Get it on Amazon 5 All I Want For Christmas by Clare Lydon Published by Custard Books This Christmas, Tori Hammond is on a mission to find love. Her ideal present under the tree would be a shiny new girlfriend, so Tori gives herself one month to find that special lady by December 25th. Christmas spells romance and she’s going to grab some. Love Christmas? Love romantic comedies? Then you need to read All I Want For Christmas and prepare to be swept off your festive feet! Get it on Amazon Anna’s Picks 6 Kicker's Journey by Lois Cloarec Hart Published by Ylva Publishing In 1899 two women from very different backgrounds are about to embark on a journey together - one that will take them from the Old World to the New, from the 19th century into the 20th, and from the comfort and familiarity of England to the rigours of Western Canada, where challenges await at every turn. The journey begins simply for Kicker Stuart when she leaves her home village to take employment as hostler and farrier at Grindleshire Academy for Young Ladies. But when Kicker falls in love with a teacher, Madelyn Bristow, it radically alters the course of her tranquil life. Together, the lovers flee the brutality of Madelyn's father and the prejudices of upper-crust England in search of freedom to live, and love, as they choose. A journey as much of the heart and soul as of the body, it will find the lovers struggling against the expectations of gender, the oppression of class, and even, at times, each other. What they find at the end of their journey is not a new Eden, but a land of hope and opportunity that offers them the chance to live out their most cherished dream - a life together. Get It On Amazon 7 The Killing Ground by Syd Parker Published by Syd Parker Books A serial killer is working his way through Chicago. His victims have nothing in common except being pregnant. Detective Rebecca Foxx of the Chicago Detective Division has her hands full trying to catch the murderer before he kills again. She has enough pressure without the overbearing FBI butting in. FBI Special Agent Jordan Gray isn’t sure what she is in for when a midnight call brings her to her boss’s office. She asks her to take an assignment off the records. Investigate the attack of her partner, but don’t let anyone outside her office know. It soon becomes obvious that Rebecca resents the FBI’s intrusion and it seems Jordan’s personal attention. With no breaks in the case, she is forced to accept the FBI’s help, but she’ll be damned if she is taking anything else from Jordan. What follows is a series of missteps and twists and turns that leaves both women wondering if they will ever catch the killer and trying to figure out how to keep their feelings for each other from becoming a distraction. Get It On Amazon 8 True Nature by Jae Published by Ylva Publishing When wolf-shifter Kelsey Yates discovers that fourteen-year-old shape-shifter Danny Harding is living with a human adoptive mother, she is sent on a secret mission to protect the pup and get him away from the human. Successful CEO Rue Harding has no idea that the private teacher she hires for her deaf son isn’t really there to teach him history and algebra—or that Danny and Kelsey are not what they seem to be. But when Danny runs away from home and gets lost in New York City, Kelsey and Rue have to work together to find him before his first transformation sets in and reveals the shape-shifter’s secret existence to the world. Get It On Amazon 9 Don't Call Me Hero by Eliza Lentzski It’s been over a year since Cassidy Miller retired from the United States Marine Corps, but try telling that to her nightmares. She knew that coming back after eight years in a war zone wouldn’t be easy, but she’d underestimated the real difficulties of transitioning back to civilian life. War is hell, but the aftermath is endless. Looking for a fresh start, she’s left her friends and career in Minneapolis to be a police officer in northern Minnesota. It’s in the tiny town of Embarrass where she learns more about Julia Desjardin. The city prosecutor is cool, professional, and untouchable. But she and Cassidy have history, and Cassidy isn’t going to let her easily forget that. For all their surface differences, Cassidy and Julia have more in common than they first realized—both are reluctant to hand over their pasts to be judged and studied. But it might take someone just as damaged as the other to help each cope with the skeletons in their respective closets. Get It On Amazon 10 Bridesmaid of Honor by Graysen Morgen Published by Triplicity Publishing Britton Prescott's best friend is getting married and she's the maid of honor. What her best friend failed to mention, was the fact that her cousin Daphne was going to be a bridesmaid. The same cousin that has been Britton's nemesis since they were in high school. As if that isn't enough to deal with, Britton's sister announces she's getting married in the same month and her maid of honor is none other than her best friend Daphne, the same woman that has tormented her sister for years. Britton has to suck it up and play nice, instead of scratching her eyes out, because she and Daphne are in both weddings. Everyone is counting on Britton and Daphne to behave like adults and put the past behind them. No one expects to find them wrapped in each other's arms at the most inopportune time. Get It On Amazon

Welcome to the absolute best podcast we've ever recorded.... ooooh chinny reckon. Chinny. Reck. Kon. Oooh Jimmy Hill chinny reckon. Chinnnnny. Ok, ok. No, it's probably not the best podcast we've ever recorded, but it was still a lot of fun as hosts Steve Norman and Owen Hughes chat Korean revenge thrills in The Villainess with Paul Field, as well as trying to work out whether Darren Aronofsky's mother! was pretentious tosh, or if that is even a bad thing at all. The pod kicks off with one of Paul's famed Amazon Review quizzes before the trio run through a few notable winners from last weekend's Emmy awards. Steve finally watches Dangerous Game, the so-called "worst football film ever made" according to The Independent, whilst Owen struggles through a review of indie drama The Song of Sway Lake due to losing all his notes minutes before recording; and Paul discovers Australian horror Killing Ground.

Back at Sundance, No Film School's Jon Fusco sat down with a few of the teams behind a few of this summer's best independent films while they were still fresh off their premiere highs. Brigsby Bear, which came out July 28, obtained a $5 million deal from Sony Pictures Classic for Distribution rights. Director Dave McCary and screenwriter Kevin Costello join the podcast to discuss the journey each of them took to get that deal. From stupid YouTube sketches with their comedy group Good Neighbor to Saturday Night Live Digital Shorts and now full-length features, their process is a great model for collaborative filmmaking. Through a lethal combination of non-linear storytelling, gender reversals, and Deliverance type thrills, director Damien Power successfully toys with audience expectations all the way throughout his debut feature, Killing Ground, which we might add took 11 years to make. We discussed how Australia's film scene helps to foster artists who take greater risks, the lengths Power went to to get his film made, and the strategies he put in place to create the script for Sundance's most mind-bending horror film.

On today's episode we are coming to you once again LIVE from the Sundance Film Festival in Park City, Utah. Today's episode is Part 2 of our Sundance coverage where I am joined by Jesse Knight, as well as Christopher James and Quinci Staker from the "In Movie Nerds We Trust" Podcast to talk about all of the films that we have had the chance of screening during the festival. All of use watched so many films during the festival. Between the 4 of us, over 30 films were screened! We had so many favorites of the festival, my personal favorite being "The Big Sick". We also talked about the new documentary "Cries From Syria" that was recently acquired by HBO and is very relevant to what is happening within our country now. Some of the many films we talked about were "Crown Heights", "The Incredible Jessica James", "Mudbound", "Dave Made A Maze", "What Lies Upstream", "Cortez", "Killing Ground", "Suck It Up", "Dim The Fluorescents", "Future '38", "Fucking Bunnies", and so many more. I can say we enjoyed a lot more than usual this year, which made a lot of these films really fun. A big Thank You to the Sundance Film Festival for allowing us to cover the festival once again this year. We had such an incredible time at the festival, despite the snows best attempts to make it miserable. Make sure to keep your eyes open for so many of these great independent films as they release on HBO, Netflix, Hulu, Amazon, and of course in theater throughout the year. You aren't going to want to miss out these films. Thank you as well to Christopher, Quinci and Jesse for spending the last week freezing at watching these Sundance films. See you next year, Park City! Enjoy the episode!
The first half of the Melbourne International Film Festival has flown by, and I've already seen some great films like Cosmos, Paterson and The Happiest Day in the Life of Olli Mäki. Among the films I've seen, though, there's been a fantastic selection of horror films, and I thought I'd spotlight four of them: three narrative features, all by first-time filmmakers, and a documentary. First up, The Eyes of My Mother. An American film, but with occasional Portuguese dialogue, it's one of the first films I got to see and it's still stayed with me. One day, a little girl witnesses some terrible violence in her home; an intruder shows up but is subsequently overpowered, and from that moment that violence seeps through to her brain as she grows up and her life spirals into chilling psychopathic behaviour. Shot in black-and-white, there's a wistful, melancholy, poetic tone enshrouding the on-screen horror. With echoes of The Texas Chain Saw Massacre, the film delves into some very dark places, both explicit and not. But despite the disturbing and violent developments the film manages to retain a beautiful, almost meditative atmosphere, and our sympathy for the central character never leaves even though she's doing awful, awful things. I mean, all she wants is a family... in a way... A very promising debut by filmmaker Nicolas Pesce. Maybe hug a loved one after this. Next up, there's Baskin. Another highly disturbing horror film, this time from Turkey, written and directed by Can Evrenol. A group of police officers receive a distress call in a remote building and head over to investigate. Once there they discover some truly hellish stuff. The film's got lots of graphic gore and screaming, with a shudderingly creepy main villain. The visuals are striking and colourful and the score is particularly vivid. Unfortunately, there's not much of anything else. The pacing is uneven and I didn't really find myself being invested in any of the characters, so despite several really interesting and horrifying sequences it all in all made for unengaging viewing. Some great ideas in this, but not entirely well-executed. Moving slightly east again we have Under the Shadow, by Babak Anvari, set in Iran in the 1980s, after the Iranian revolution and during the Iran-Iraq conflicts. It centres on a woman and her husband and young daughter living in an apartment block in Tehran. Not only is there the constant threat of missile attacks but some strange, nightmarish things start to occur, and when the father is called away to military service the mother and daughter are left to deal with the supernatural dread that plagues them. Under the Shadow does a fantastic job of channeling serious political and parental fears into a deliciously slow-burning terror, the tension building and building, holding you captive until it explodes in the final ten to fifteen minutes, unleashing full-scale horror. All throughout it stays gripping, then right at the end it starts ripping. Excellently shot with some unsettling camera movements and production design that captures the period as well as the evil closing in. Probably my favourite of the three. Finally, I saw Fear Itself, a documentary on horror films written and directed by Charlie Lyne. Or rather, it's not so much a documentary as a cine-essay, a stream of thoughts on horror films and the way that they relate to real human fears and anxieties. Impressive in scope and mesmerising in equal measure, the film itself is essentially a collage, in that it consists entirely of edited-together footage from existing horror films, and hypnotic narration over the top that takes you on an engrossing journey through humanity's darkness. The range of films chosen is admirable, encompassing a vast range of horror cinema from across the world and throughout history, even using some films that aren't traditionally considered horror films but which have certain elements that illustrate the points that the filmmaker is trying to make about horror films, which in turn ties back to the points he makes about humanity. And the exploration of the themes is engrossing, thoughtful and at times quite personal. It's transfixing and thought-provoking and highly recommended not just for horror fans but for anyone interested in the depths of the human soul. And that's all the horror films at the festival that I've been able to see so far, but there's more to come! A few I'm looking forward to are Killing Ground and The Devil's Candy, both by Australian directors, as well as The Lure and The Love Witch, which from what I've heard are very very weird, and I can't wait. There's still another week left of the festival, so get out there and start shitting your pants in terror. I'll be in the cinema with you, toilet paper in hand. Till next time, see you there...

Brian McKenna Brian and I talk about his new film Newfoundland at Armageddon, unnecessary war and how an incident with bullies changed his life. Trailer CBC link here. Newfoundland at Armageddon will air on CBC TV on Thursday, June 30 at 8 pm (8:30 pm NT), mere hours before the 100th anniversary of the event that changed Newfoundland - and Canada - forever. Synopsis One hundred years ago, on July 1st, 1916, the Newfoundland Regiment took part in a massive First World War offensive on the Somme, led by the British to liberate France and Belgium from the claws of the Germans. Some 800 soldiers from the Regiment went over the top that morning, near Beaumont-Hamel in France. The following day only 68 were able to answer roll call. Because of that battle, nothing about Newfoundland would ever be the same. To commemorate the one hundredth anniversary, Brian McKenna’s latest feature documentary film Newfoundland at Armageddon tells the story of this epic tragedy. Using a technique he perfected during his 2007 project, The Great War, 21 descendants of soldiers who fought with the Newfoundland Regiment were recruited. Through descendants’ eyes, and with the guidance of regimental records, historians’ research, soldiers’ files, diaries, letters and family stories, the documentary recreates the battle and its aftermath in Newfoundland. With the help of dramatization, we go behind the scenes of history and visit General Haig as he’s planning the battle with his generals; we’re also confronted to the hardships of a family who sent a son to war. Enhanced with special effects and CGI, the battle and night raids are intercut with dramatizations, archive footage and photos, as well as interviews with prominent historians, John Fitzgerald, Margot Duley, Gwynne Dyer and Adam Hochschild. Narrated by Newfoundland musician Alan Doyle, written by renowned Quebec filmmaker Brian McKenna and multi-award winning Newfoundland author Michael Crummey, directed by Brian McKenna, this 90 minutes documentary film is a Galafilm Productions inc. (Quebec) and Morag Loves Company inc. (Newfoundland) coproduction. Biography Filmmaker, historian, author and journalist Brian McKenna is best known for his provocative, prize-winning films on Canada's and the world’s history: The Great War, Big Sugar, The Killing Ground, War at Sea, The Valour and the Horror, Web of War, War of 1812, Fire and Ice: The Rocket Richard Riot, Chiefs, Korea: The Unfinished War, Battlefield Quebec: Wolfe and Montcalm, Famine and Shipwreck, an Irish Odyssey, and his most recent project, The Secret World of Gold. McKenna also directed the Gemini Award - winning television program Memoirs of Pierre Trudeau, a five -part series broadcast on both the French and English networks of the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation. A companion volume to the series became a Canadian publishing bestseller. In 2003, McKenna was honoured with the prestigious Gordon Sinclair Award for Broadcast Journalism at the 18th Annual Gemini Awards. Brian McKenna is also a founding producer of the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation's Oscar - winning current affairs show, The Fifth Estate, a former parliamentary correspondent for The Montreal Star and co - author of the Penguin Books history of Montreal's legendary mayor, Jean Drapeau. He is the founding chairman of the Canadian Committee to Protect Journalists, prompted by his experience with war, torture and terrorism.
