FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
UNEARTH Road update from Trevor:
“Things have been crazy busy on the road, so we are sorry for the lack of updates. First off Ozzfest has been amazing every day and so have the off dates with Lamb of God, Atreyu and Every Time I Die. We couldn't have asked for a better summer of shows, fun and good company.

We want to officially announce our fall headlining tour with Black Dahlia Murder, Terror and Remembering Never. The tour will run from September 23rd through October 29th and will hit most major cities in the US. More details will be available in the coming weeks.

After our headlining tour we will embark on the East Pak Resistance tour, which is a European jaunt with Sick of It All, 7 Seconds, Walls of Jericho and Ramahla November 4th through the 28th. It has been a couple years since we have done a full European tour and we are looking forward to our return.

We can't thank all of you enough for going out and picking up the record. We have sold over 34,200 copies of The Oncoming Storm in just five weeks.

We also want to thank the college radio stations all across the country for making us the Number One record on the CMJ Loud Music Charts for three weeks running.

Thanks to everyone who has made the release of The Oncoming Storm a great experience for us. We hope you all can enjoy the record as much as we do. Till next time...”

THE RED CHORD Road update from Kevin:
"The radiotakeover tour has been going fabulous. This is the best tour we have done thus far. The reaction has been better than any other tour. We have been getting the best reactions not only when we play 'Dreaming in Dog Years', but also when we play our new songs. So far Anaheim and San Diego were the best shows on the tour. And, we are really excited because the air conditioner in our van is finally working!"

CATTLE DECAPITATION Update from Travis:
“The 8/9 show at Downtown in Farmingdale and the 8/10 show in Richmond, VA were cancelled unfortunately. We were unable to make the shows due to me getting strep throat. This always happens to me this time of year. SO, the doctor told me to take 2 days off. It sucks because we haven't played Richmond yet. Sorry we couldn't make it. We'll see you sometime soon. We resume the tour on 8/11 in Baltimore, MD. I should be fine by then.”

WINTER SOLSTICE Update from Duke:
"The tour with Bloodlined Calligraphy and Silence The Epilogue was great. It was our first time in a lot of areas, and we received an excellent response everywhere we went. It was a lot of fun and we can't wait to get back on the road again soon. As for now we are putting the finishing touches on writing the album. In October, we will be heading up to Cloud City Studios in Detroit to record our debut full-length, "The Fall of Rome", which will be produced by Mike Hasty from Walls of Jericho."

On September 21st The Beast will rise. Right, we are talking about the new album from almighty VADER!

3. Dark Transmission
4. Firebringer
5. The Sea Came In At Last

8. Insomnia
9. Apopheniac
10. Choices

And for all you hardcore Vader fans, the European version of The Beast will be released as a limited first edition that will contain a bonus-DVD! The bonus DVD includes a report from the studio, a video clip recorded during the session, and some fragments of one of the most important gigs in 2003! Be prepared!

Here’s the track listing for “Hellucinate”:
1. Inject
2. Wicked Saints
3. Infernique
4. Hellucinations
5. Show Me Your God!
6. Death_Wish_Scar

CANNIBAL CORPSE
To clear up any confusion about the planned Scandinavian tour in September: even though Amon Amarth have pulled out of this tour, it will NOT influence Cannibal Corpse' participation. A replacement for Amon Amarth will be announced shortly.

CATARACT Update from the band:
“We need to tell you that our first show in Denmark was an incredible blast. Thanks to everyone who was there and especially to Soren and his crew for putting up this awesome fest! Even if it took us almost 16 hrs to get there - we joined about 1 million Germans on their way to their holidays up north - it was worth every second of it. We played four songs of our upcoming record and it feels damn good to finally play them live! Well, one thing's for sure, we won't wait another 6 years to come back! Please check our e-card! There's one full song ("Nothing's Left", song #2 on the album) ready for download and you can pre-order our new full-length! Don't miss us playing the Sucks'n' Summer Fest this weekend in Leisnig with tons of other great bands!”

DISILLUSION Update from the band:
“For the following four appearances Disillusion will be strengthened with 5 guest musicians:

8/22 Summer Breeze Festival
9/03 Wertherbruch, Germany IV Nebelmondparty
9/11 Zwickau, Germany Gasthof Auerbach

In addition to the three of us there will be one acoustic guitar, a keyboard, a bass and two back-up singers who will provide for a conversion of the songs of Disillusion that is not to be missed. The guest musicians were recruited nearly completely from the friendly Leipziger band DARK SUNS.”

FRAGMENTS OF UNBECOMING Update from Sascha:
“Finally, it’s done! The new Fragments Of Unbecoming homepage is online from now on. Plenty of new reviews, interviews, a photo gallery for the first time, new member profiles, new live dates, a press area, etc. can be explored. Feel free to comment on what you like or dislike in our new guest book or by contacting any of the band members. Concerning our new singer, we will add a complete profile of him as soon as possible. We are proud to announce that we have from now on an exclusive distro partner distributing our first MCD "Bloodred Tales: Chapter I, The Crimson Season" in the US. You can contact Mike Entwistle at distribution-usa@fragmentsofunbecoming.com. We have been thinking of adding a forum to our page in the near future - perhaps we are just looking for someone to moderate it. To get sure if this could be interesting for you, tell us if you would welcome one. Thanks. Farewell and all the best for you out there. Support the underground!”

GOREROTTED line-up change
Gorerotted have parted ways with Mr Gore. They will continue as a five piece until a sutible replacement is found. Remaining vocalist Goreskin and Bass player Wilson will handle the high vocals between them for all upcoming festival shows and club gigs. Gorerotted recently performed at the Kaltenbach open-air festival (Austria) as a five piece when Mr Gore was forced to stay in the UK because of family problems. Anyone who witness this show will tell you Gorerotted still fucking destroy as a live band!!!

Vocalist Goreskin has this to say:
'It's like the end of an era losing Mr Gore, he's been in Gorerotted from the start and was the utter cunt that roped me into singing with him in the first place. Still, he needs to go, it's time to move on and look to the future. Anyway there's still a bunch of ladies in London he hasn't done yet, so at least he'll be able to put his full energy into banging broads again. It's quite nice really, just like releasing a caged animal back into the wild'

BLACK MARKET ACTIVITIES updates:
PSYOPUS Update from Greg:
“Well, we got back from tour a little bit early due to the nature of our transmission. Needless to say we are very upset that we are unable to finish, but on a positive note, we are in the process of getting a new badass van that will last us the next 100 million tours that we do! Special thanks to the Rev. at RTTP.com for taking such brutal pictures at Hellfest of all the bands that played! You did a great job as you always do. The metal scene needs to clone you and put Revs in every city. Be sure to check out the new pictures from Hellfest as well as the tour pictures we took in the MEDIA section. Our video for The White Light that we shot with Optical Alchemists should be nearing completion soon so be sure to check there website here, or check back with us for more details. New dates are up here, and also new t-shirt designs are posted here. Thanks guys and girls and keep it brutal!”

FROM A SECOND STORY WINDOW Update from the band:
“To clear up a few things, Drowningman IS playing the Columbus date. It’s not listed on the Lambgoat posting and for a brief moment, they were not going to do it, but now they OFFICIALLY are playing, so do come and show love to our friends in that band. Next, we are NOT playing anywhere that isn't listed in our show section. I have gotten a lot of emails over the past few days about us playing Virginia, Michigan in other places besides Detroit and Pt. Huron, and a NJ date. WE update our site all the time, so if you do not see it on our show page, we ain't playing the motherfucker. Too many people that email and ask us to do shows think that because I tell them we are CONSIDERING, possibly their offer that we are confirming somehow our definite appearance at said show. WHILE we discuss EVERY SINGLE show offer together as a band, we have all collectively decided for now that we are NOT going out after the six dates listed on our site, barring festivals we get invited to play or certain tour offers with a few bands we have yet to tour with that we all want to tour with really bad. We totally appreciate every offer but we NEED to start the writing process, so… do NOT believe any flyer you read or anything anyone says unless you see it on our site or email me first and hear it from our family. I feel silly even having to put a post up about this shit but maybe its necessary given the fact that I can't stand to disappoint kids that email me with excitement over a show we aren't even playing. Love, FASSW”
