siN's metal news reports: VEHEMENCE guitarist
John Chavez and Bjorn Dannov have commented on the band's breakup:
John: "Yah guys, it is true. I tried hard
to persuade the guys to keep it together, but they felt this was the best
time to throw in the towel and move on to the next chapter. I started to
feel it too after what was said and presented. Basically, the overall vibe
of VEHEMENCE was decreasing. The songs were good, and I think the whole
thing with Sean Vandegrift not producing lyrics for 6 months, and not moving
down to Phoenix had something to do with the frustration and tension within
the band leading to its demise.[see full story for a lot more]-

Cornerstone reports: Alanis Morissette has
resurrected Seal's 1991 chart-tooper, 'Crazy,' for her upcoming greatest
hits CD, The Collection, due out on November 15th. The music video for
the remake packs a punch in the form of an ending that's a real eyebrow-raiser.

Adams 25th |
Press Release reports: Bryan Adams celebrates
his 25th Anniversary as a recording artist with his first two-CD collection
Anthology (A&M/Chronicles/UMe), released October 18, 2005. Anthology,
the biggest retrospective of his multiplatinum, Grammy®-and Oscar®-winning
career not only contains all his hits--19 of his 21 pop Top 40s--but includes
two new recordings, most notably When Youre Gone featuring pop culture
idol Pamela Anderson.
The 36-selection Anthology spans Adams
entire career from 1980 to 2005, also boasting the new song So Far So
Good, which not-so-coincidentally was the title of his first 1993 quintuple
platinum greatest hits disc. In addition, the package includes photographs
and an essay by renowned music critic Dave Marsh. A bonus in initial shipments
is a limited edition DVD of a previously unreleased concert shot on Super
8 and 16mm film at the Pavilhao Atlantico in Lisbon and elsewhere in Portugal
in February 2005.[see full story for hear the duet with Pam]-

| Village
of Spiritu |
Press Release reports: Heavy rock/metal label
MeteorCity announces its next release, a split CD featuring the bands SPIRITU
and VILLAGE OF DEAD ROADS. Entitled "Human Failures," the album recaptures
the spirit of MeteorCity's early split releases from Nebula & Lowrider
and Unida & Dozer, pairing four tracks each from roster stalwart Spiritu
and new addition VoDR. "Human Failures" weaves energy, soul and aggression
into a dynamic voyage that's atmospheric and rockin' at times, bleak and
asphyxiating at others. This alternately uplifting and pummeling hour of
artful heaviness is sure to appeal to fans of ISIS, Cavity, YOB, The Melvins
and Clutch. This is also the first proper release from Spiritu since their
2002 debut, which Pit Magazine acclaimed as "crushing, fulminating and
monolithic!, Kerrang! dubbed "skull-crushingly heavy and unique, and
Metal Hammer called "hugely enjoyable." Spiritu / Village of Dead Roads
"Human Failures" will be released to brick-and-mortar and digital retail
in January 2006, with advance ordering possible by mid-December.-
