Here's what Hugo Flores had to say: “Melotronical is different, very special, quite aggressive some times, and perhaps our best album to date... Every track from this album has something unique, maybe related to the way the album was designed; a conceptual album, following a storyline that in the end will make sense to everyone. It's a timeless story, about who every living being IS... and what's also great is the booklet with no less than 13 specific images created to support the story and music!

I hope that all tracks will stick in your mind for a long time, we tried to come up with ideas that would definitely make a difference.

Hope you enjoy it and a Happy 2011 to everyone!”

Halls Tainted Red Annonces Horror

LeGrand Haughton of Halls Tainted Red, a one man tech death metal band from Philadelphia, announced that he will be making a mini multi part horror film featuring all the music from the upcoming album "Mind of a Gentleman"; his first released project to be released in 2011. "I want to hit these fuckers in the mouth. Im starting to film now. I'm sick of bands just making countless EPs and not getting anywhere. I had to start off with an album or I couldn’t live being a metal musician. These videos/movie is going to really separate me from a lot of other artist. This is good for me but bad for them." When asked about the concept behind the videos he stated that he has a idea that he is focusing on and gave a hint: "The album is called 'Mind of a Gentleman', basically it is going to be a mind-fuck and creepy as hell. I have to get some decent stuff on Youtube and help my fan base grow."

Halls Tainted Red (HTR) is a one-man band from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania that started in 2005. Fronted by LeGrand Haughton, who composes songs in Technical Death Metal styling’s. This genre of music is best recognized by its brutal sound and high technical skill required of musicians who play.

Halls Tainted Red's music is written and performed exclusively by LeGrand. A drum machine handles the percussive and bass sections of the music, while LeGrand plays the guitar and sings. The music combines highly technical aspects of the death metal genre : blast beats on drums, death growl vocals, and fast alternate picking on the guitar. In the summer of 2009 LeGrand played shows to promote the release of HTRs debut album, Mind of a Gentlemen. One of which was played at the Crocodile Rock in Allentown, Pennsylvania.

Titans Eve Set Release Date For Debut ''The Divine Equal'' Feb 1st, 2011 + Free

Vancouver thrash metallers Titans Eve announce they are officially releasing their debut album "The Divine Equal" on February 1st, 2011. The album features 11 epic metal tunes influenced by themes from the famous 17th century poem "Paradise Lost" by poet John Milton and The Book of Genesis (the first book of the Hebrew Bible and the Christian Old Testament).

"We wanted to emphasize on these themes and relate them to life's everyday struggles, all while staying true to our personal interpretations of metal. We feel by combining these elements, we have created an interesting concept album for our fellow metal heads to discover." comments vocalist / guitarist Brian Gamblin.

The Divine Equal can be pre-ordered on Titans Eve bandcamp link here (http://titanseve.bandcamp.com/) , in addition to a free download of their track "Becoming The Demon" at the following link on PureGrainAudio.com - http://puregrainaudio.com/audio/titans-eve-becoming-the-demon

5. Serpent Rising

Titans Eve came together when brothers Brian (guitar/vocals) and Kyle Gamblin (guitar/backup vocals) decided to start their own musical project in 2008 after the departure of previous projects. The line up of Titans Eve was completed with the recruitment of Jesse Hord (bass) and Casey Ory (drums), from there the Vancouver-based band have set out to create honest, powerful modern metal and have repeatedly piled into the “Titan Train” (i.e. their 2007 Ford E-350 van) and traveled across Canada, bringing their music to as great an audience as possible. They’ve played over 80 shows in the past year and a half and 2011 will see them travel further than ever before as tour dates will be announced for Canada, the U.S. and Europe.

What the Press is saying:

“Titans Eve has quickly risen through the ranks of the Vancouver metal scene, quickly becoming one of the best thrash bands in town.” - Absolute Underground Mag

“The Gamblin brothers shred like crazy, easily making Titans Eve one of the best local (Vancouver) thrash bands. They really blew everyone away, and sent beer flying all over the place." - Absolute Underground (Live Review)

“I’d like to point out Titans Eve is a band I like because of their anthem filled nature. The songs on show are very easy to sing along to, and that could be just what is needed in metal today. Stand out tracks: Judgement, Nightfall and Becoming The Demon.”
- Ultimate-Guitar.com

“Titans Eve churned out their own unique brand of thrash metal. Brothers Kyle and Brian Gamblin did a great job stirring up the crowd,… With a short but sweet set with crowd favourites including “The Tides of Doom”, “Serpent Rising”, “Into the Fire” and “Living Lifeless,” Titans Eve left it all on stage and made a strong impression." - Abort Mag (Live Review)

“Thrashy, crunchy goodness that’s perfect to bang your head to.” - Funeralrain.net

"The next act of the night, was again, Vancouver’s own, Titan’s Eve. They had their fans standing strong against the barrier, thrashing amongst one another, and screaming the words back to the guys...Their performance was extremely strong, and energetic. The last song, Brian got the crowd cheering him on to chug a beer, and its my pleasure to say, he successfully chugged a full beer, and finished their set with a song packed with heavy riffs, strong drum beats, and vocals to captivate the audience." - RockstarWeekly.com (Live Review) from opening w/ Exodus
