What's going on
OWL: Жизнь на просторах Прогрессивного мира не стоит на месте. Всегда что-то происходит. Будем "мусолить" новости. Начнём с группы IQ. Барабанщик Энди Эдвардс решил покинуть коллег. Возвращается Пол Кук.
OWL: alex rael пишет: Спасибо и за эти два - только вот почему никакая сволочь не сподобилась издать эти альбомы? Я б купил, а так - довольствуюсь болванками Удивительно другое: почему участники Навигатора решили ограничиться записью музыки на CD-R, сопроводив скромными вкладышами... Я знаю массу других групп (НЕЗАВИСИМЫХ от какого-то лэйбла), которые всё же изыскали возможность для издания ФАБРИЧНЫХ дисков с нормальными буклетами - тексты, фото участников и прочая информация...
alex rael: Так и я о том же: есть же частные лейблы с приличным качеством, которые берутся за умеренную сумму за любую работу. А Musea я вообще не понимаю в этом плане...
OWL: Клавишник Матье Жобер вернулся в группу THE BLACK NOODLE PROJECT, чтобы принять самое активное участие в записи нового студийного альбома - "Ready to Go".
alex rael: The Watch Hi guys!!! Final mixing almost finished, we're loving the new songs so much... release date in early february (Europe) but it will be available from the end of January at our gigs. After the mastering sessions we will upload some excerpts here and on the portal. So hear from us soon, cheers! THE WATCH Хорошая новость
OWL: alex rael пишет: Хорошая новость Взял информацию на карандаш. Предыдущий диск THE WATCH ("Primitive") мне очень понравился...
alex rael: Мне все 3 альбoма их нравятся+Nightwatch, но Vacuum - ИМХО само совершенство
OWL: alex rael пишет: Vacuum - ИМХО само совершенство Хороший диск, но "Примитивный" - ещё лучше.
alex rael: Ещё стоит заметить их очень хорошее качество записи (я их взял на частном итальянском лейбле Lizard)
OWL: SKEEM: is currently recording the follow-up album to their 2001 self-titled debut. All songs are written and the band is currently in the studios. Release is expected through Musea Records for sometime in 2010.
OWL: OWL пишет: The Winter's End (который состоится в Англии, в середине марта 2010 года) Magenta (UK), RC2 (Venezuela), Lee Abraham and Band (UK)...
alex rael: Аbraham смотрю, совсем от Galahad отпочковался....Классный фест, правда RC2 немного выпадает ИМХО
OWL: alex rael пишет: Аbraham смотрю, совсем от Galahad отпочковался Если бы ты был внимательней, то знал: про его уход из группы я писал на форуме какое-то время назад.

OWL: Вокалистка Хитер Финдли покидает группу MOSTLY AUTUMN.
OWL: Запевала Алан Рид получил "поворот от ворот" группы PALLAS. It is with great regret that I must tell you that I am no longer a member of Pallas. This is not a situation of my desire or choosing. I have been unceremoniously informed that the other members of the band have unanimously decided to sack me. This has happened without prior warning or discussion. The purported reason is an alleged lack of commitment on my part to the band and the forthcoming album. My external activities with other projects is cited in support of this. I can only express my sadness that I will no longer be part of the Pallas story. The new album was/is shaping up to be a good one, and I was looking forward to participating fully in it. I take extreme exception to the suggestion that I was not committed to the band. As I'm sure anyone who knows me will testify, I've been passionate about Pallas since I first joined 25 years ago. I've also been very active in the organisation of the band on many levels. I can't begin to say how angry and hurt I feel at the way this has been done. We've all been through a lot together over the years, and I've always considered every member of the band and crew a close personal friend. I'd like to say that I wish Graeme, Niall, Ronnie and Colin the best of luck without me - but as you will understand, such Machiavellian treatment leaves a bitter taste. However, I am not and never have been vengeful, and perhaps in the fullness of time we'll speak again.. But this is a betrayal that is not easily forgiven. As for my own future, it's too early to say. I had not anticipated this, and was expecting a full programme of Pallas-related activity over the next year. Whatever my next move is, it's likely to sound very different. I hope you will continue to offer me the same support and friendship that I have enjoyed up until now. Alan Reed.

San Sanich: Вот ответ Graeme Today is a sad day. Playing in a band is like being in a marriage, only there are five partners instead of two. It is complicated. No one goes into a marriage expecting to get divorced. Alan has been a member of Pallas for many years, but the sad inescapable truth is that Alan, and the other members of the band have slowly drifted apart over the last couple of years. No one set out with the intention that this should happen. It just has. It is partly due to the geographical problems of living at opposite ends of the UK. Alan has been unable to attend a Pallas rehearsal in the last five years, and writing music together when you are 500 miles apart is difficult. Sometimes people just grow apart as their ideas and interests change. During the last set of UK gigs Alan did not travel with the rest of the band members and barely spoke to any of the rest of the band during the two days we were together. There was no discussion about the new album, no laughs with the rest of us. It was all very uncomfortable. None of us have had any communication from Alan since the Peel. At a time when we are starting to record a new album that seemed very odd. Yesterday was a very sad day for me. It fell on me on behalf of the rest of the band to tell Alan that we wanted a divorce. Nothing Machiavellian, nothing gutless, nothing underhand, nothing vindictive. There is no good time to tell someone something like this. There is no good way to tell someone something like this. We are all very sad, and I, and the guys, knew how hurt Alan would be, understandably, but the fact is the relationship had broken down, to a point where we wanted a divorce. The reason we play in Pallas is for the enjoyment and for the love of the music. If we are not enjoying it then there is no point and the band would simply die, like a loveless marriage. We were not enjoying the fact that the relationship had broken down. I donâ?™t propose to discuss the breakdown its not appropriate, it just happened. Itâ?™s sad. Pallas will continue. We continue to work on XXV, and it will come out later this year. We will be touring, We will be playing at Progeny, We look forward to seeing you all and hopefully to your ongoing support. We wish Alan well. There is no ill will on our part and we are sure that Alan will be fronting another band before long, and we look forward to that. We would like to remain friends. I had asked Alan to call me today after our call yesterday. He was very angry on the phone and I totally understand that. I had hoped that I could talk to him today and explain some of these things to him personally before any announcement was made about the situation. Unfortunately, I am having to say them publicly. I hope this helps balance the equation and that it may give an insight into the other side of this unhappy story. On behalf of the members of Pallas, Graeme
OWL: Pendragon have announced a Touring Schedule for 2010 which includes a mini tour of the UK and Europe in May as well as a number of Festival appearances, which include the incredible High Voltage Festival to be held in London later this year! Work is also already underway for the band's much anticipated new album entitled Passion, which will hopefully be out Spring 2011
