| Dead
Voices On Air |
PR reports: Mark Spybey, a.k.a. Dead Voices
On Air, has been actively creating sonic abstracts for twenty years and
then some. Having worked with Industrial eccentric pioneers such as Download
and Zoviet France, Spybey formed Dead Voices On Air following a move from
Northern England to Vancouver. A long with shifting to focus on his own
project, he collaborated on over 50 albums in a 5 year period. The latest
release from Dead Voices On AIr, "From Labrador To Madagascar" features
9 chilling tracks of pulsating cuts, swells, static, bleeps, bursts, and
airy pads. Experimental and absolutely innovative, Spybey's current work
incorporates organic and electronic sound fonts in both improvisation and
pre-meditated calculation. At times haunting, maddening, and abrasive,
and at others rhythmical and soothing, Dead Voices On Air encompasses the
scope of existence in a manner far beyond the reaches of convention. Releasing
on the revered Invisible Records, the album is due out on January 30th.[see

| Halford
November |
Chipster reports: This November will see a
flurry of release from one of heavy metal's all-time great voices, Judas
Priest's Rob Halford. Rob's solo band 'Halford' make an unforgettable and
exclusive return to Apple's iTunes Music Store this fall. On November 21,
2006 Halford will debut its first new track in more than four years: 'Forgotten
Generation' exclusively @ Apple.com/iTunes/store - keyword: Halford. One
week later - on November 28, 2006 - three (3) full-length Halford albums:
'Resurrection' with bonus material (2000/2006), 'Live Insurrection' (2001/2006),
and 'Crucible' with bonus material (2002/2006) will re-release after being
re-acquired earlier this year. 'Resurrection' signaled Halford's glorious
metallic return, and featured a duet with Iron Maiden's Bruce Dickinson,
'The One You Love To Hate.' The ensuing tour was faithfully documented
on 'Live Insurrection,' which combined new Halford and Fight tracks with
such Priest classics as 'Stained Class,' 'Genocide,' and 'Breaking the
Law.' Halford's sophomore studio set, 'Crucible,' showed the group continuing
to gel as one of metal's fiercest outfits, before the singer returned to
front the classic Judas Priest line-up once more. All titles are available
exclusively @ Apple.com/iTunes/store - keyword: Halford.[see full story

| Elemental
Boddy |
PR reports: With the release of Ian Boddy's
Elemental, DiN reaches its 25th title since its inaugural release Box of
Secrets (also by Boddy) in 1999. This is Boddy's, the founder of DiN, fourth
release for the label with "Chiasmata" in 2004 and "Aurora" in 2002 being
the other two. He has also been involved in collaborative projects on eleven
other DiN releases working with musicians from diverse backgrounds. These
include the American ambient pioneer Robert Rich, Throbbing Gristle member
Chris Carter, German guitarist/ composer Markus Reuter and UK synth artist
Mark Shreeve. Such a broad range of influences have had a positive effect
on Boddy's music and he has absorbed and distilled many of these to startling
effect on Elemental. Indeed this album shows off his chameleon like ability
to constantly change and develop over what has now been a long musical
career since his first cassette-only release way back in 1980! The album
just came out in the UK in October 2006 and will see a January 23, 2007
release in the US.- Click

| Raven
iTunes |
PR reports: With the success of a top 10 album
and #1 single in Japan, Marion Raven is primed to make waves in the U.S.
Eleven Seven Music will release Marion's 6-song ep titled Heads Will Roll
exclusively through iTunes on October 24th with her full-length U.S. debut
coming out first quarter 2007.
The songs on Marion's EP reflect a broken
relationship and the feelings that follow. At times the music is dark,
vengeful and powerful, but ultimately uplifting and cathartic. Marion collaborated
with some of rock's biggest names including Nikki Sixx (Mötley Crüe),
Keith Nelson (Buckcherry), Raine Maida (Our Lady Peace) and Scott Stevens
(The Exies). In addition to writing and singing, Marion also plays the
piano, electric and acoustic guitar on many of her songs.[see full story

| The
Accursed Halloween |
Chipster reports: THE ACCURSED To Release
"Seasons Of The Scythe" On Screaming Ferret Wreckords/October 31st, 2005
From the first cutting riff, it becomes
immediately clear that the unholy offspring of classic thrash and death
metal presented by The Accursed on Seasons Of The Scythe is the result
of years of listening and learning. Well-versed in all things heavy, The
Accursed spew forth a lethal dose of musical toxin that proudly carries
on the metal tradition. Exuding the venomous snarl of a young and angry
James Hetfield, vocalist Jonathan Helme leads this sadistic platoon - brother
Chris on drums, guitarists Tim Giblin and Loki, and bassist George Pacheco
- into vicious sonic battle with nods to the likes of Death, Slayer, Venom,
At The Gates and Anthrax along the way. [see full story for more]-
