Sacred Metal-Board

Ich mach mal prophylaktisch. (ja, das Wort kenn ich dank der Zahnpasta-Werbung) einen Thread auf zu zwei meiner Lieblings-Ohio Bands: SHOK PARIS sollten bald ihr viertes Album fertig haben und standesgemäß über Auburn veröffentlichen, natürlich nicht ohne Super-Sänger Vic Hix...

...und außerdem ist eine neue DESTRUCTOR angekündigt, mit dem Titel "Decibel Casualties".

Da bin ich mal vorsichtig gespannt.
Vic Hix war natürlich schon ein "Alleinstellungsmerkmal", um diesen Begriff auch einmal zu verwenden.

Ich gehe davon aus, dass er das immer noch ist.

Würde mich aber auch sehr freuen, wenn der zweite Re-Release irgendwann mal käme...

ja auf die Shok Paris bin ich schon sehr gespannt.
Hoffentlich kommt sie wie angekündigt noch dieses Frühjahr.
(Bei Auburn kann es allerdings auch schnell mal Herbst werden)

Shok Paris

Na da freu ich mich schonmal vor und hoffe nicht enttäuscht zu werden

Auf beide freudig warte

SHOK PARIS - 'Those Eyes' Single Released on Tuesday, February 28, 2012

'Those Eyes', the new digital single from SHOK PARIS, is being released today via iTunes and other major digital retailers. It is the band's first commercially available new music in 23 years. The song will appear on the band's fourth full-length album, Full Metal Jacket, which is scheduled for release later this year via Auburn Records.

"This one's literally hot off the presses", says guitarist and main songwriter Ken Erb. "It's the newest of the new Shok Paris songs. Our first commercial release since "Concerte Killers". I am very happy with the way it turned out. Jason (Vanek) did a great job with the recording and mix".

"Those Eyes" was recorded and mixed at Mercinary Studios in Cleveland, Ohio by Jason Vanek (ETERNAL LEGACY).

"You know everyone has a fear that has stayed with them since they where a young child", adds vocalist Vic Hix about the song's lyrics. "As you grow up you learn to hide these fears but if you search deep down inside you will find that fear never leaves you. It's always there no matter how old you are. It can be many fears, like the fear of the dark, the fear of what's under the bed at night or the fear of sleeping alone. Every child has one.

"My fear has always been of a dark figure lurking in the room with those haunting eyes so "Those Eyes" represents all of my fears and maybe some of yours. I hope these fears doesn't come back to haunt ya'!"

Shok Paris will be headlining the first night of the Up The Hammers VII festival, set to take place March 2nd-3rd in Athens, Greece. This will be the band's first visit to Greece.

"We are releasing this new song as a special thank you to our Greek fans for supporting the band and my label all these years", says Auburn Records president Bill Peters. "The song is dedicated to them. We rushed into the studio to finish it in time. Shok Paris will be my first Auburn band to ever perform live in Greece. It's been long overdue. We're very excited about finally having a chance to play live for our Greek fans. Thanks to Up The Hammers festival organizer Manolis Karazeris for making this dream come true!"

A live version of 'Battle Cry', recorded in Cleveland on May 1, 2010 at the Beachland Ballroom during a special performance of the band's 1984 debut "Go For The Throat" album in its entirety, was also released as the digital B-side to 'Those Eyes'. Tony Alberts from Spectrum Sound recorded and mixed the live track.

Shok Paris is:

Vic Hix - vocals
Ken Erb - guitar
John Korzekwa - guitar
Ed Stephens - bass
Donovan Kenaga – drums

Die Single hört sich ja schon mal ganz gut an, könnte was werden, das Album!
