PHARAOH

[Lynott]

bringen pharaoh eigentlich einen zweiten gitarristen mit ??!!

Ja, der Gitarrist von DIVISION wird die zweite Gitarre spielen. [/quote]
...sehr gut, denn rhythmus und soli spielen ist ein wenig schwierig und wenn man sich die pharaoh-scheiben so anhört.......

[Cimmerer]

Die Songs auf Myspace gefallen mir zwar rewcht gut, aber an die The Longest Night Songs kommen die meiner Meinung nach nicht ran :ph34r:

Der EX-Gitarrist von DIVISION!

Hi,

also trotz mehrfachen Hörens, bin ich mit der neuen Pharaoh noch nicht wirklich warm geworden.

Das ganze ist mir irgendwie zu technisch, zu viel "Gefrickel". Kommt meiner Meinung nach leider nicht an die The Longest Night ran.
Ok, war ja auch nicht einfach.

Momentan gefallen mir am besten Buried At Sea, Cover Your Eyes and Pray und Be Gone.

Werde sie jetzt erstmal zur Seite legen und wieder in 2-3 Wochen hören. Mal sehen...

Regards

Nach der Probe bei Myspace war ich erst auch nicht so begeistert, aber jetzt habe ich die Scheibe einige Male komplett gehört und finde sie sehr geil!
Zwar tatsächlich ein Stückchen hinter "The Longest Night" angesiedelt, aber nichtsdestotrotz eines der besten Power Metal Alben der letzten Jahre.

Bin momentan auch in der Weggelegthab-Phase. Nach dem KIT-Gig brauche ich erstmal ein paar Wochen keine Pharaonen.

An advance of things to come...

After almost two-year silence it’s time for PHARAOH to hit the road again, with a bunch of new releases coming out 2010-2011.
Following the incredible success of their third album “Be Gone” (Cruz Del Sur Music 2008) and their first-ever live appearances at Keep It True festival (Germany) and at the Alehorn of Power (Chicago, US), the band took a little break which has now finally come to an end.

The first item to be released is a 7’’ split EP with fellow-mates CANVAS SOLARIS (Sensory Records). These two bands have committed to an excited but demanding task, covering each one a different CORONER song!

PHARAOH performs a very professional and convincing version of CORONER’s classic “Tunnel of Pain”, while CANVAS SOLARIS hits the right notes with their personal version of “Arc-Lite”.

This 7’’ is to be intended as a tribute to the legendary Swiss band of which both PHARAOH and CANVAS SOLARIS are long-time fans!



The release will see the light before summer 2010 and will be strictly available through Cruz Del Sur Music mail-order and other selected sales point.

Second to be released, in October 2010, is the “Ten Years” EP (cruz38) which was announced for 2009 but later postponed due to band and label other personal and professional commitments.

This “so-called EP” (total playing time of almost 26 minutes!) starts with the title track (feat. Jim Dofka’s guest solo) and “When We Fly”, 2 unreleased songs out of the “Be Gone” recording session.

Then comes the first surprise of the album, a cover version of NEW MODEL ARMY’s classic “White Light”, with Tim Aymar giving out an exceptional and singular performance to his standards.

Track 4 and 5 are “Reflection and the Inevitable Future” and “Nothing I can say” which were first released as a bonus 7’’ on the “Be Gone” limited gatefold LP release (cruz999).

To close the album, PHARAOH comes with another particular cover song, SLAYER’s “Tormentor”, out of the classic album “Show no Mercy”.

The album (again enriched with JP Fournier’s original artwork) is to be considered musically more a follow-up of “Be Gone” than an insight of what’s to come next in the future of PHARAOH.

Future that will shortly see the band enter MCR Studio again under the supervision of Matt Crooks, to start recording its fourth full length album to be released in Spring 2011.

Great news! I don't know much of Coroner yet, but I guess it will be good if Pharaoh cover it. The EP will be very diverse ranging from Slayer to New Model Army! I saw Matt with his New Model Army shirt on the KIT.

[Metal Dundee]

Das wäre doch direkt mal wieder ein Anlass bei CORONER nachzufragen, ob sie nicht Bock auf ne Reunion-Show am KIT hätten

[Ulle]

Great news! The two Matt's told me about that at the K.I.T.

Well, I am a NMA fan myself, and Matt's a huge fan as well... And the SLAYER cover kicks ass! The whole material is not just fill-ins, personally I love the title track for example, I'd say it would looked good even on "Be Gone".

'Tunnel Of Pain' is an awesome track. And NMA ... the old material is great. That will be a great release. Looking forward.

The latest NMA-album was also very good, in my opinion.

[holg]

The last one I bought was ... let me think ... "Love Of Hopeless Causes" ... quite a while back.

Well, then check the latest one out, I guess you will like it.
For me it was also a new NMA-album after a very long time.

n.p. : "Vagabonds", "Green and Grey", "51st State".

@topic : Nice idea paying a tribute to the mighty CORONER and bring back some memories.
Not the typical coverversion-choice.
