Axe Nemesis

An electrifying stew of hard rock, biker rock, Southern rock, and keyboard rock (we're talking 1983 after all), Nemesis may easily be Axe's defining statement: The band wants nothing more than airwave domination and to come into your town to help you party down. Ripped opener "Heat in the Street" bears a similar title to "Rock 'N' Roll Party in the Streets," Axe's biggest-ever hit from their previous offering, Offering (the CD reissue erroneously christens the song "Heat in the Night" but all that matters is Nemesis made it to disc), yet despite the obvious leitmotif, nothing can touch this red-hot, hard luck, fugitive tale which takes every right turn while crashing and burning in a league with the immortal Motörhead; Axe is always geared for the radio, though, throwing in keys and vocoder for a walloping slab of two-ton American rock.

With "Nemesis - The Best Of & Reworked", Blutengel are not only releasing their first official Greatest-Hits-Album, but also a rather special kind of history lesson, presenting classic songs, hits and favorites from the past in the sound of today…

Formed in 2002 it was the release of 2007's Cassandra that really pushed 25 Yard Screamer in the light of the prog scene. Signing to WhiteKnight with whom they have released their last 4 albums, has pushed the band further into the 'Prog' world and led to tours with label mates 'Last Flight To Pluto' and appearances with KScope artists 'Godsticks'. The latest collection of new, original material from 25 Yard Screamer. Nemesis treads familiar paths but starts new travels.

Ready for take-off? Buckle up and hold on tight when the “fuzztronauts” of PARASOL CARAVAN start their spaceship and speed across the stage with the riff force of a supernova. The Linz-based band counts on calm psychedelic moments merged with heavy fuzz and driving guitar riffs, a fusion epitomizing the right amount of progressiveness and beaming the listener directly into orbit.

The original Alice Cooper band broke up in 1974 after releasing seven great albums. The lead singer Vincent Furnier started his remarkable solo career in 1975 and he adopted Alice Cooper as his name. In 1977, three former members of the Alice Cooper band formed a band called Billion Dollar Babies…

Part of the Axe Killer label's "Back to Black Collection," 1987/Slip of the Tongue collects the Whitesnake albums of the same name in their entireties with bonus tracks housed in a slick black sheath…

Everyone gets the blues, says Skip McDonald, who should know. The legendary guitarist gets them - like, really gets them - more than most. The blues are a fact of life, he adds in a Dayton, Ohio twang undiminished by two decades of UK living. It doesn't matter where you are. The blues have no boundaries. An old school bluesman in the tradition of everyone from Howling Wolf and Leadbelly to Blind Willie Johnson, McDonald channels the past into the future through his internationally regarded project, Little Axe. A project that is more than just a band: it's a collective of different people who, at certain periods, come together to create great work.
