EERSTE BANDS GEBOEKT VOOR BRAINSTORM 2009
Narnia (S), Mad Max (D) en Forsaken (Mal) gaan we zien op 13 en 14 november 2009 tijdens de tweede editie van het Brainstorm Festival. Ook Deuteronomium (Fin), Harmony (S), In Vain (N) en Darkwater (S) zijn geboekt. De organisatie voegt nog vijf namen toe aan de line-up.
Het Zweedse Narnia is geen onbekende. De band heeft door heel Europa gespeeld met artiesten als Ronnie James Dio en Stratovarius. Ook Nederland werd verschillende keren aangedaan en de band stond op Sweden Rock Festival. Narnia brengt dit jaar een nieuw album uit via Massacre Records, wat tevens de vuurdoop is voor de nieuwe zanger Germán Pascaul (ex-Minds Eye/Mendez).
 Ook Mad Max is een graag geziene gast op de Nederlandse podia. Deze Duitse dinosaurus hardrockers speelden in het verleden zelfs op Dynamo Open Air. Minstens zo interessant is de komst van Forsaken uit Malta. De laatste keer dat deze band in Nederland op de planken stond, was deze geweldige doom-band headliner op het bekende Dutch Doom Days (editie 6) in Baroeg, Rotterdam.
Fans van melodieuze death-metal kunnen zich opwarmen voor Deuteronomium uit Finland. Hun nieuwe album is een killer en de band heeft de laatste tijd indruk gemaakt met een overweldigende live-show. Het Zweedse Harmony was afgelopen jaar een van de uitschieters. Zij komen dit jaar terug. De band speelt heavy metal in het straatje van Yngwie Malmsteen, Kamelot en Nocturnal Rites.
Uit het donkere, koude Noorwegen haalt Brainstorm Festival de extreme, progressieve metalband In Vain. Dit jaar verschijnt een nieuw album via Indie Recordings, vol met black, death, doom en progressieve metal. Nog meer goed nieuws voor liefhebbers van het progressieve genre: Darkwater uit Zweden doet hun eerste Nederlandse show tijdens het Brainstorm Festival!
Het Brainstorm Festival wordt gehouden in club Gigant in Apeldoorn (NL). Naast concerten wordt het publiek vermaakt met expositie, workshops en een kleine metalmarket. Meer informatie is te vinden op www.brainstormfestival.com
DREAMSCAPE Announces New Singer
German progressive metallers DREAMSCAPE have announced the addition of singer Erik "E.Z." Blomkvist to the group's ranks. The band says, "You might know Erik from his former band PLATITUDE, with which he was touring e.g. with bands like THRESHOLD and, amongst others, played the Sweden Rock and ProgPower Europe festivals. Erik is a great guy and awesome singer and all of us are very happy to have him aboard!!!"
DREAMSCAPE has finished recording the instrumental parts for its new album, "Everlight", due later in the year via Silverwolf Productions. The vocal recordings are tentatively scheduled to take place in May.
The band's last CD, "5th Season", was released in August 2007. It was the follow-up to "Revoiced" — a "best-of" album containing re-recorded material from the group's first two CDs, "Trans-Like State" (1997) and "Very" (1999).

HEAVEN SHALL BURN - reveal title of first official DVD release!
 Bildersturm - Iconoclast II (The Visual Resistance)" will be the title of the highly anticipated first official DVD by German metal outfit HEAVEN SHALL BURN,
guitarist Maik Weichert comments:
"We can't believe that we now have the chance to finally hold our first DVD in our hands!!! We did not expect that it would be so much hard work to get it done, but of course it also was loads of fun to put this together.
Since we could not decide which of the two shows to use on this DVD, we decided to include both of them! The show at Summer Breeze festival last year and the one in Vienna were just equally incredible and watching them still gives us goose bumps!"
Besides stunning live material the DVD will also include a comprehensive documentary about HSB and loads of additional content, details will be announced soon. "Bildersturm - Iconoclast II (The Visual Resistance)" will be available in
3 different formats, one of them being a limited and very special edition 3-Disc Box-Set and surfaces on Century Media Records towards the end of May.
Furthermore, the brand-new video clip for HEAVEN SHALL BURN's fantastic version of Edge Of Sanity's "Black Tears" has just been finished and will be premiered in the coming weeks. The song can be found on the band's current
opus "Iconoclast (Part One: The Final Resistance)", which was released last year.
