SLOUGH FEG “The Animal Spirits” finally available in Europe!


SLOUGH FEG “The Animal Spirits” is finally available in Europe on CD through Cruz Del Sur Music! San Francisco’s metal masters’ last effort is whetever you might expect from a SLOUGH FEG platter, and even more… the press has already responded enthusiastically to this new full-lenght, probably the most complete the band released to date:

The Animal Spirits will hopefully alleviate a least a little bit of these sad facts, because it’s quite simply one of, if not THE band’s best effort to date. Again, while most obsessive Slough fans have their own personal preferences—2000’s Down Amongst the Deadmen, for example—what The Animal Spirits does so wonderfully is encompass all of the band’s myriad talents into one cohesive, well-flowing album. Emotional guitar playing from Scalzi and Angelo Trigali incorporates everything from moving Irish melody—a la Thin Lizzy—to a gritty, streetwise urban vibe reminiscent of early Maiden or even Running Wild. What the album really succeeds at, however, is filtering this through some ace songwriting; a level at which Slough Feg has never truly achieved or operated on before…at least not for quite some time.” from heavymetal.about.com Read more “SLOUGH FEG “The Animal Spirits” finally available in Europe!”

PHARAOH: Work(s) in progress!

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. Read more “PHARAOH: Work(s) in progress!”
