| FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE FEBRUARY 8, 2007 WHEN DREAM THEATER AND ROADRUNNER RECORDS UNITE! BAND AND LABEL JOIN FORCES WITH NEW STUDIO ALBUM PLUS WORLD TOUR TO FOLLOW ROADRUNNER RECORDS is proud to announce the signing of progressive metal pioneers Dream Theater. A new studio album, Systematic Chaos is due in June. Dream Theater will hit the road in support of the album for a world tour, including major festival appearances in Europe. Since their first studio release in 1989, this US based five-piece has notched up record and DVD sales in excess of six million and headlined to audiences of 20,000. Having undertaken seven world tours across 42 different countries, Dream Theater has established a live reputation that has swept them to arena-status around the globe. They have appeared alongside acts such as Deep Purple, Iron Maiden and Yes. Recognized by peers and public alike for their advanced musical expertise, the band (Mike Portnoy, drums; John Petrucci, guitar; John Myung, bass; James LaBrie, vocals; Jordan Rudess, keyboards) has long held the ability to combine complex arrangements with unadulterated songwriting skills, the material often underpinned by riffs as heavy as anything in the Metallica repertoire. “This album’s got all of the elements we’ve become known for,” reveals Portnoy. “The focus on musicianship, the skull-crushing riffs, the big progressive epics and the heart-wrenching melodies. We’ve got one of the strongest and most devoted fan bases in the world, and they should certainly be happy with the new material. By working closely with the label we hope to turn a great many new heads too.” “Dream Theater and Roadrunner Records have led parallel careers on the cutting edge of metal for many years,” say A&R men, Derek Oliver & Dante Bonutto, “We’re thrilled to be working with a genuine market-leader, and when you add everything the guys bring to the table to the independent spirit and work ethic of the label, the results can only be exciting in the extreme!” Prior to teaming up with Roadrunner, Dream Theater was signed to a seven-album deal with Warner Music Group worldwide. The deal commenced with the critically acclaimed and commercially successful Images And Words (1992), a Gold-certified US release, and concluded, in equal style, with Octavarium (2005), a Top 40 Billboard outing. In August of last year the band issued Score, a live album/DVD (recorded at Radio City Music Hall in New York), which went straight to the No. 1 spot on the Billboard DVD charts, knocking Pink Floyd from the top! By the following month, the five were holed up at Avatar Studios in New York, working on the new album with veteran engineer/ mixer Paul Northfield (Rush, Queensr˙che, Porcupine Tree). As usual, Portnoy and Petrucci chose to co-produce the project, which features seven compositions (one a 25-minute epic), and word on the grapevine is that the Dream Theater/Roadrunner alliance looks all set to kick off with a classic. Systematic Chaos, Dream Theater’s ninth studio release, arrives at a time when the band is casting a longer-than-ever shadow across the rock and metal landscape. Their influence is being acknowledged by an increasing number of contemporary, cutting-edge acts such as Stone Sour, Trivium, Shadows Fall, Opeth as their fan base continues to grow. Touring plans will be announced shortly. Please visit www.roadrunnerrecords.com or www.dreamtheater.net for up to the minute information. |

| ICED EARTH guitarist/mainman Jon Schaffer has posted the following message on the band's official web site:"I'm back on track and we are going to start recording on February 1st. We will be releasing a single/EP in June '07 that will feature the 'Something Wicked' trilogy re-recorded and a track that will be an alternate edit of a song that will be on 'Something Wicked Part 2' that now has a working title of 'Come What May'. The label was wanting me to do something with the original trilogy to reintroduce the story. So, what we have in store for you is very cool. You will hear 'Prophecy', 'Birth of the Wicked', and 'The Coming Curse' in a new way that will be a very killer way to kick off this massive epic. "I don't want to give you any details to spoil the surprise, but trust me, it's going to be awesome. "'Something Wicked (Part 1)' will be released in the September/October '07 time frame and Part 2 will follow in January/February '08. "This is by far the most epic task I've ever taken on as a songwriter and I really feel like it will be worth all the sacrifice when it's finished. I've been working nonstop for over a year now and it's coming together in a very special way. I've just about finished all the musical arrangements and am now focusing on writing the lyrics/vocal melodies. I'm in the final stretch now... "Tim Mills has contributed a few really cool pieces of music and has shown a real interest in the whole 'Something Wicked' story, and a real passion for being involved with the band. All this while owning and operating his own company (Bare Knuckle Pickups). I'm impressed, it's a rare quality, believe me. "Also, the bass player on the next record is a local boy from Indianapolis whose name is James 'Bo' Wallace. Bo is a killer player and a great personality. I went to see him perform several months ago and was impressed with his abilities, energy and passion. He played with MA KELLEY for many years and released several records on a few different independent labels. Without a doubt, Bo is a great bass player and I'm happy to have him working with ICED EARTH. "Here's a list of working titles for the upcoming epic. There will likely be changes but this gives you an idea of where things are going." "Something Wicked - Part 1" 01. Overture 02. Something Wicked (Part 1) 03. Invasion 04. Man's Motivation 05. The Setian Massacre 06. Ghost Dance Ritual 07. Reflections 08. Ten Thousand Strong 09. Execution 10. Order of the Rose 11. The Clouding 12. Infiltrate and Assimilate 13. Retribution From the Shadows 14. Something Wicked (Part 2) 15. The Domino Decree 16. The Division of Religion (Man Needs God) 17. Novo Ordo Seclorum (Cycle Of A New Age) "Something Wicked - Part 2" 01. The Sacred Flames 02. Behold the Wicked Child 03. Minions of the Watch 04. A Gift Or A Curse? 05. I Walk Among You 06. My Burden, My Honor 07. Ancient Rage of the High Priest 08. A Gathering Threat 09. Time Marches On 10. Sacrificial Kingdoms 11. Something Wicked (Part 3) 12. Divide Devour 13. Conspiracy / A Charge to Keep 14. Come What May (Mankind Is Lost) |

| Thursday, February 15, 2007 NIN's web of intrigue As if the Heroes and Lost sites weren't keeping us busy enough, Pop reader Jason has informed me of a Lost-like mystery that's building around Nine Inch Nails' new album, Year Zero. "There are secret codes on tour merchandise that lead to telephone numbers to websites to bathroom stalls with ... flash drives?" he writes. The NIN Hotline has been trying to keep up with all of the developments, and here's a list of some of the websites that have been found so far. There's no telling where all of this is going or whether it will end April 17, when Year Zero is released. Posted at 10:19 AM/ET, 02/15/2007 |
