| Rammstein Working on New Album |
|
After finishing the first part of their studio-recordings successfully, Rammstein have started to put the final touches to their new songs. For example, they’re thinking about the usage of strings and choirs. Therefore the band sat down with the orchestra arranger Sven Helbig last week.
Aside from the last musical changes the final lyrical changes are being made, too. We’re highly awaiting the next steps of the album production: the mixing of the songs. It is supposed to start mid of march and will take about six up to eight weeks.

| Manowar’s Hammer of the Gods Due Autumn |
|
Manowar’s new album, Hammer Of The Gods, which is the first installment of The Asgard Saga, the band's unique multimedia fantasy adventure with best-selling author Wolfgang Hohlbein, is tentatively due this autumn. An EP, Thunder in the Sky, will precede the full-length CD. Destined to be a collector's item, the tour edition of the EP will be available at all the festivals Manowar headlines on the "Death to Infidels Tour!" In addition, the EP will be available for sale online in high-quality, DMR-free, MP3 format only at The Kingdom Of Steel online store. The downloadable version of the EP will contain the exact same content as the version on sale during the tour. Manowar is scheduled to headline six of Europe's largest heavy metal festivals as part of the "Death To Infidels Tour!" The self-proclaimed "Kings of Metal" have long crusaded to keep the spirit of "true metal" alive. In 2009, the crusade blazes through Europe armed with allies, Holyhell, and the legions of faithful metal warriors following the call to raise their arms, lock their wrists and sound the cry "hail and kill!". The band sets forth on the crusade to conquer false metal tyranny, starting with Europe this summer while headlining Provinssirock in Seinajoki, Finland on 13th June 2009; Hellfest in Clisson, France on 21st June 2009; the Metalway festival in Zaragoza, Spain on 27th June 2009; the B'estfest Aftershock in Bucharest, Romania on 5th July 2009; and the Norway Rock Festival in Kvindesal on 10th July 2009. The grand finale of the tour will be Manowar's call to arms for true metal warriors the world over, the Magic Circle Festival III, on 18th July 2009 at the Loreley on the Rhine River in Germany where the world premiere of songs from their forthcoming CD will be performed.
