Loved Hibrias debut, and just read an interview stating that they are finally finishing up details on the new cd, but no title or release date.

Really? That's awesome, at least there seems to be some progress. I was just worried because there hasn't been one single "significant" update on their website since the release of Defying the Rules (except that interview you mentioned, and that was two days ago

muzmaze · February 1st, 2008, 03:24 PM

Yup, both Hibria and Tad Morose have been driving me nuts with the silence

. At least Hibria seems to still be alive, with TM unfortunately being almost hopeless, oh well.

carbon · February 2nd, 2008, 12:03 PM

I almost fogot about To-mera.
I'm really looking forward to their new album.... Their samples are incredible.

muzmaze · February 2nd, 2008, 01:28 PM

Funny you mention To-mera, I just stumbled upon thier samples the other day, and they are good!
Theres only a few female fronted bands that do it for me, one similar to To-mera and worth checking out would be Angtoria. There style is more classical /gothic/ metal-less thrash, but very heavy.

yuffi · February 2nd, 2008, 03:19 PM

Actually Iced Earth did already release "Something Wicked Part 2" in 2007.
Listen to track 15 on "Framing Armageddon" :-)

(They really should use unique names for their songs and Albums.)

There was Something Wicked This Way Comes (where the concept really began)

This is the actual dual concept album

Framing Armageddon (Something Wicked This Way Comes Part I)
Revelation Abomination (Something Wicked This Way Comes Part II)

I don't see how this constitutes as them not using unique album titles. You realize they have a total of eight full length albums right?

Iced Dog · February 3rd, 2008, 12:35 AM

Haha, I'm sure he knows and was just playin around.

This year I'm looking forward to...
Iced Earth - Part II
Pyramaze - Immortal
Firewind - The Premonition
Rage - Carved In Stone
Seventh Wonder - TBA
Adagio - Archangels In Black (Hey guys, can we get a fuckin update on this?)
Orphaned Land - The Never Ending Way Of ORwarriOR (hopefully this year)
Wintersun - Time (again, hopefully this year)
Penumbra - TBA (see above)

and many others that I'm currently unaware of

Exactly. I`m just some kinda freaky person. lol

But I didn`t knew, that the next album was already named. (Revelation Abomination)
Don`t get me wrong: I really do like the 'Something Wicked' story. Indeed.

Well, but this is Pyramaze. And I anticipate 'Immortal' much more than Revelation Abomination, because it took me a very long time to 'accept' the vocals of that Ripper guy. The more often I listened to 'Framing Armageddon', the more I liked that album. The idea of getting used to Barlow on 'Revelation Abomination' again isn't that enjoyable 4 me. It ripes the two Albums apart, wich belong together so much. I would have liked Borlow to remain in Pyramaze for longer. Than that Ripper guy could have finished Revelation Abomination.

*OK, that will lead to flame wars!*

Please remember, that this is a Pyramaze Forum. This is not Iced Earth!

Greez,

Iced Dog · February 3rd, 2008, 03:00 PM

Yer Super Freeeakay! Oh, sorry

But remember, Revelation Abomination is just a working title and won't be the real title. Try looking at it this way, Part I was setting the foundation for everything, and has a mystical ancient quality that worked well with Tim...whereas Part II will be darker/heavier/more brutal (according to Jon) and will better suit Matt's vocals. So in retrospect, fans get the best of both worlds

Well, I read your post four times. And after the first time I thought: Hmm, Matt's vocals sounded always very warm to me. I had his voice on songs like 'Prophecy' or 'Melancholy' or 'Watching Over Me' in mind, which are very emotional, as you will surely agree.
I thought that Tim`s performance on 'something wicked (part 1)' (which I really like) was so much darker than Matt's on 'prophecy'.

But than I remembered Matt's performance on 'The dark saga'. A really great album.
And I understood: You are right. You are absolutely right, man.

If part II will be darker/heavier/more brutal, than Matt is the right man for this job. He`s such a genius, the way he can vary his voice from emotional, soft to powerful, dark.

Anyway, thank you for that post, mate. It made a lot clear to me and now I really can look forward to Revelation Abomination (working title).
(Although I`m still more the Pyramaze one. Not one single song I don`t like until now. I could list a lot Iced Earth songs I always skip while listening.)

Oh, and sorry for my bad English. I know it`s poor.

Greez,

Yuffi

Your English is fine, man...BTW, where are you from? As to Matt, I just always considered his delivery "darker and heavier" than Tim's...Matt has that deep crushing baritone to go along with the high stuff, while Tim's strength is in the mid to high registers. A good example would be Dante's Inferno...as much as I like Tim, he couldn't make that sound as evil, sinister, and brooding as Matt does. But yes, we have some good shit coming our way this year

Thx. I`m from Germany.

Not that much Metal around here.
But we have the 'W:O:A Wacken Open Air' and ... Blind Guardian.

Not that much metal??
Aren't Helloween, Gravedigger, Rammstein (different, but still metal), and many less famous bands from Germany?
Also there are quite some big metal-labels with european HQ's there I believe.
But then again...for a true fan there's never enough metal around I guess :P

Brother Brax · February 5th, 2008, 02:33 AM

I am looking forward to:
Pyramaze - Immortal
Enter The Hunt - Empires Fall
Communic - ?????
Mechanical Poet - Endoline
Staind - ?????
Mercenary - Architect Of Lies

Hopefully this year will be just as good as the last.

Iced Dog · February 5th, 2008, 02:34 AM

Yeah, there are some great German metal bands...look no further than my sig

A couple more releases to add for this year...

Anthropia - The Chain Reaction
Opeth - Watershed

Yeah, there are those fantastic bands of course.
But here`s the problem: When you tell the people that you like metal, hardly everyone will think that:
1) You are fat. (Well, I am)
2) You have very long, dark hair. (mid-long, brown-red)
3) You have no friends. (I have 4 'true' friends and many 'normal' friends)
4) You have no girl-/boyfriend. (I`m married)
5) You have/had problems with the law (not until now, but who knows...)
6) You won`t be a big success. (IT-business)
7) ...

(I don`t give a fucking damn of what they think!)
How is that in your countries?

Back to the bands:
I know one song of Helloween (only): The invisible man. They are a rip of Gamma-Ray, aren`t they?
Gravedigger: Yeah, I heard the name
Rammstein: I don`t like the lyrics at all.
many less famous bands: There are a lot, and some seems very promising to me.
Oh, and what is really cool: We do have a nice mix of every kind of metal here. Death/speed/melodic/progressive/...

But I`m still 'verdant', because until last year, all I ever heard was: Iron Maiden, Man-o-war, Savatage, Iced-Earth and Blind Guardian. Now I`ve discovered, that there are so many other fantastic Bands out there.

And that`s it: If you are not in the metal 'community', you won`t hear any metal. Sad but true. (Oh, Metallica is an exception. Everyone knows Metallica because 'Nothing else matters' was very popular here.)
