Joe Satriani “Thunder High on the Mountain” New Song, Glenn Hughes, Chad Smith

The second single from Joe Satriani’s forthcoming 16th studio album, What Happens Next, is now available in its entirety on Spotify, as an instant-grat track for iTunes pre-orders.  The song is called “Thunder High on the Mountain” and it has been embedded below.

What Happens Next will be released on January 12 via Sony/Legacy.  The new instrumental album features a power trio of Satriani on guitar along with two Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductees: Deep Purple/Black Country Communion bassist Glenn Hughes and Red Hot Chili Peppers drummer Chad Smith, the latter reuniting with Satriani for the first time since their work in the supergroup Chickenfoot with Sammy Hagar and Michael Anthony.

Satriani once again teams up with producer/engineer/mixer Mike Fraser. Fraser has recorded and mixed every AC/DC album since 1990’s The Razors Edge and has been a frequent collaborator with Satriani since the release of Crystal Planet in 1998, producing, engineering or mixing Satriani’s solo albums as well as both studio projects by Chickenfoot.

Featured: Krokus Covers Album ‘Big Rocks’, House of the Rising Sun, Jumpin’ Jack Flash

On January 27th, Krokus released a brand new collection of cover songs, called Big Rocks. The album pays tribute to bands and artists like Led Zeppelin, Queen, The Who, Steppenwolf, Neil Young, Bob Dylan and The Rolling Stones. Krokus provides a fresh new take on classic tracks such as “My Generation”, “Tie Your Mother Down”, “Whole Lotta Love”, “Quinn The Eskimo”, “Jumpin’ Jack Flash”, “Born To Be Wild” and others. “It is a homage, a nod to all those artists who paved the way for us, making it possible for us to do what we do,” says bass player Chris von Rohr. Big Rocks offers a total of 14 tracks: 13 cover songs and a re-recorded version of KROKUS’ hit “Backseat Rock N’ Roll”.

The first single released pays tribute to the folk-rock classic “The House Of The Rising Sun”. “The first time I came across this song was in the wild sixties. I was lying on my bed and all of a sudden I heard the voices of a thousand angels sing,” von Rohr continued

2017 Big Rocks Tour:
Krokus posted the following message on March 6, 2017:  “Last weekend marked the start of our “BIG ROCKS” 2017 concert season – co-headlining with our old friends GOTTHARD as part of the “ROCK MONSTERS OF SWITZERLAND” shows [special guest SHAKRA] – Thank you Bern and Zurich!!

“At the end of the show the two co-headliners jammed as “grand finale” to a combined crowd of more than 13,000 rocking fans….

“If you did not get your tickets in time for these shows, you still can see the two bands this coming Sunday, March 12th at Salle Metropole in Lausanne [Saturday show already SOLD OUT as well]”

Reviews:

“The great thing about ‘Big Rocks’ is that the sound is full-on vintage power rock with a touch of blues and without any of the usual studio trickery of today. The band sounds raw and flawless and will be a trip down memory lane for lovers of the rock ‘n’ roll classics.” – Metal Wani

“Krokus can’t help but make all of these songs heavier and grittier. The songs are still recognizable, but a few have been beefed up and given a bit of a heavy metal makeover.” -Metal Misfit

“Big Rocks is one of the best cover albums I have heard.” 9/10 -Markus’ Heavy Music Blog

Testament Singer Chuck Billy Talks About Meeting Drummer Gene Hoglan, Atomic Clock

In the clip above, Testament vocalist Chuck Billy talks about the first time he met their drummer Gene Hoglan. The interview is taken from Gene’s new DVD The Atomic Clock: The Clock Strikes Two.

Gene’s highly-anticipated second DVD, “The Atomic Clock: The Clock Strikes Two,” features the Clock himself breaking down some of his favorite beats, telling stories and playing along with tracks from several of his most legendary projects, including Strapping Young Lad, Testament and Death.

Featured Tracks:

» TESTAMENT: “Rise Up”, “Native Blood”
» GALAKTIKON: “On My Way”
» MELDRUM: “Walking Point”, “A Toast To Romance”
» STRAPPING YOUNG LAD: “Skeksis”
» DEATH: “Overactive Imagination”, “The Philosopher”

Filmed in high definition on a dozen cameras, with studio-mastered audio, this DVD offers a chance to see Gene Hoglan play like never before. Though certainly inspirational for any level of musician, The Atomic Clock: The Clock Strikes Two is not only for drummers. Gene’s easygoing, approachable attitude is readily apparent as he happily tells the viewer stories from his career, chatting as if with old friends about days in the studio or on the road.

An impressive roster of high-caliber musicians also weigh in over the course of the feature, offering stories about Gene and their experiences working with him. Interviews include Scott Ian and Frank Bello of Anthrax, 3 Inches of Blood/Revocation’s Ash Pearson, Jason Bittner of Shadows Fall, Chuck Billy, Alex Skolnick, and Eric Peterson of Testament, and more.

This DVD provides a glimpse into the philosophies, techniques, and history of one of metal’s most influential musicians of all time.

The Atomic Clock: The Clock Strikes Two was recorded at The Warehouse Studios Vancouver, Canada. The DVD was edited by Leon Melas and directed by Rob Shallcross and Leon Melas, with co-direction from GENE HOGLAN. All audio was produced, engineered and mixed by Rob Shallcross with audio mastering from Greg Reely.

Reviews

“Overall, Atonement is yet another worthy addition to Immolation’s legendary catalog. This is a band whose influence and importance in metal cannot be overstated, and although it’s not a huge departure stylistically from any of their recent albums, they’re just so exceptional at what they do that it doesn’t really matter. Immolation remains a constant and reliable source of capturing the essence of death metal.” 9/10 – Metal Injection

“Atonement delivers on everything you would expect from a great Immolation record. The album starts out at full-throttle and offers no escape from the brutality, which many will cite is exactly why they listen to Immolation in the first place.” –Consequence of Sound

“A rigid sense of self resounds on this record, an identity that continuously enables the band to produce exemplary and unique death metal almost 30 years after their inception. As such, if you’re not already convinced, then this most certainly won’t be the album to change your mind. Atonement isn’t immediate; it’s esoteric and spatially awkward. But its also rich and monstrously vast, and finds the band in extraordinary form and perhaps at their most consummate.” –Angry Metal Guy
