23:05 - EMols86 Enjoyed Pyramaze - Melancholy Beast for sure, except for the horrible song called "Until We Fade Away", which reminds me why I don't like (most) power metal.
In what would go well on our "Funny Stuff" feature, apparently power metallers DragonForce have been doing more than touring and releasing a new album this year. Guitarists Herman Li and Samuel "Sam" Totman are featured in a TV commercial advertising the Capital One mobile app. It seems that it is possible to use your phone and also shred on your guitar without a problem.
Vanden Plas have released their first ever music video. Somehow I doubt "Holes in the Sky", which comes off of their newest album The Seraphic Clockwork, will find its way to MTV.
The new Deadlock album Bizarro World will be released on February 28th 2011 (US release date is March 16th, and February 23rd in Japan) via Lifeforce Records. The limited edition (digipak) of the album and the digital version will contain two remixes as bonus tracks.
