AC/DC, The Who and Scorpions Members Recording with Michael Schenker
(Gibson) In an interview with Classic Rock Revisited, former Scorpions drummer Herman Rarebell talked about recording with early Scorpions guitar god, Michael Schenker. Schenker is currently recording a solo album with Rarebell and former members of AC/DC, UFO, Vanilla Fudge and The Who.

Rarebell explained, "Michael will soon release a solo album with many, many guests. As far as who the guests are, you should ask Michael. I will be one of the guests and so will Pete (Way, bassist from UFO). I know Carmine (Appice) is playing on a few songs. Simon Phillips (who played with The Who) and Chris Slade (AC/DC) will also play on a song. I will be on seven songs. It is all new material that Michael wrote over the last few months. Whatever comes out of this, the future will have to show."

The combination of Rarebell and Schenker is a tantalizing prospect for Scorpions fans, as it is a reunion of two key components from one of the band's best-loved albums, Lovedrive. Schenker, whose brother Rudolf is a founding member of the German juggernaut, played on three key tracks and then bailed. His absence left an opening for one of metal's most unsung guitar heroes, Matthias Jabs. more on this story

The movie's producer, Michelle Sy, confirmed that she had met with Pattinson, and said that the only requirement is that the actor will be able to perform music "or at least make it believable." more on this story

Strokes Talk Heavy New Album
(Gibson) Strokes bassist Nikolai Fraiture says that the title of his band's new album, Angles, is representative of the process that went into making the record. Fraiture told Spin.com that the name "reflects the way the album was made. It's all about the different approach and the different ways these songs came out."

Angles breaks new ground for the band, which had previously relied on frontman Julian Casablancas to generate ideas for tunes. This time, each of the five members (Casablancas, Fraiture, guitarist Albert Hammond Jr., guitarist Nick Valensi and drummer Fabrizio Moretti) brought in ideas, often working without Casablancas until the instrumental track was done.

"We wrote and rehearsed together as the four of us," Fraiture said. "Then we'd send the track over to Julian. There was a lot of back and forth. I don't know if Julian had trouble being with us – I don't know what was going through his mind. There were tensions. But it worked." more including tracklist

Singled Out: The Get Up Kids Week - Pararelevant
The Get Up Kids released their new album, There Are Rules, yesterday and to celebrate we asked Matthew Pryor to pick some of his favorite tracks from the album and tell us a little bit about each one. Today he tells us about "Pararelevant:"

No spell check will every recognize this word because I made it up. We were looking at some music magazines at the studio and the topic of relevance came up. I made the joke that we weren't relevant but we were on a different road that was parallel to relevance. So, pararelevant was born. The more I think about it though, at least in music circles anyway, relevance is in the eye of the beholder. One man's trash is another man's treasure or so they say. I've been observing that our music represents different things to different people including us. To some, we are the band they used to go see when they were in college and that's our relevance to them. To others, and this would include the five of us, it's a constantly changing and sometimes mutating organism whose relevance is more closely tied to the current moment than the past. I guess, maybe this song is about that balance between those contradicting points of view. I mean, you've got to have both. Your past is certainly a huge part of what you are now but it's certainly not the only thing that defines you. I think that people lose perspective of that sometimes. I think that we have to live in the present while still celebrating the past.

Hearing is believing. Now that you know the story behind the song, listen for yourself and learn more about the album right here!

Why Bands Are Playing Their Classic Albums Live
(Gibson) Is it a coincidence that as album sales decline, more bands seem to be playing more concerts in more markets than ever before? Musicians are becoming hip to the fact that their new albums aren't exactly burning up the charts like they used to, and that, perhaps, their back catalog is worth re-examining. Often this is in the form of a greatest hits tour, but more and more often, popular acts with a decent history under their belts are choosing to play entire classic albums every night, sometimes to mark an anniversary, and sometimes just for the fun of it.

Recent album-oriented tours include The Cult playing Love, Steely Dan alternating between The Royal Scam, Aja and Gaucho, The Melvins playing Houdini, Testament playing The Legacy, and Judas Priest playing British Steel. Nine Inch Nails played The Downward Spiral at one of their final gigs, and Roger Waters has hit the road to play two Pink Floyd albums in recent years – The Dark Side of the Moon and The Wall – both to great acclaim.

And Queens of the Stone Age are about to play a series of concerts in Australia where they will perform their self-titled debut album of 1998 during sideshows for their appearance on the Soundwave festival. The album itself is being re-released in March 2011 with previously unreleased tracks via founder Josh Homme's own Rekords Rekords label.

....An interesting sideline for the "play your own album in full" concept is the "play someone else's album in full" strategy used by Phish and Dream Theater. A lot more here

Lemmy-the-Pooh
(Gibson) In a new interview, Motorhead frontman Lemmy Kilmister discussed a variety of topics from living in L.A. to his current reading fare, which curiously includes a certain willy, nilly, silly old bear.

"I'm reading the report about the Dresden bombing," the bass-playing anti-hero told LA Weekly. "It's a good one, the new one. And uh, what else am I reading? I'm reading Winnie-the-Pooh for the first time. It wasn't written for kids, believe me. I mean the TV show, the Disney show, is (expletive) atrocious. It's an abomination. The book is fantastic, it's so sarcastic."

In addition to maintaining a diverse reading list, Lemmy has also been keeping tabs on the young bands in his adopted hometown of Los Angeles. "There's a lot of good bands around. I don't always remember who they are. There's one called the Sex Slaves from up in North L.A., they're really good. Um, who else? I dunno man, I see a lot of bands. There's a lot of good bands around." more on this story

Band Of Heathens Set New Album Release
Band Of Heathens have set a March 29th release date for their new cd, Top Hat Crown & The Clapmaster's Son.

Produced by George Reiff (Chris Robinson, Courtyard Hounds, Ray Wylie Hubbard), new album comes on heels of Austin City Limits (PBS) appearance, festivals and #1 Americana record

2010 was a year of making noise and news for the Band of Heathens. With 200-plus show dates, a fifth anniversary celebration, appearances at Lollapalooza and other top national festivals and a taping of Austin City Limits with Elvis Costello, it is remarkable that the Heathens even found time to write and record a new studio album, but they did. more on this story

Fleetwood Mac's Peter Green Controversial Rifle Threat
(Gibson) On this day in 1977, former Fleetwood Mac guitarist Peter Green threatened his accountant Clifford Adams with an air rifle when he was trying to deliver a £30,000 ($51,000) royalty check to him. Gibson takes a look back:

Funny thing is, when given the chance to talk about his version some of the great "Peter Green" stories, Green is remarkably down-to-earth, matter-of-fact and he explains how everything, invariably, gets blown up by the press.

The story goes that on this day in 1977, Green was arrested for possessing a gun without a license and using threatening behavior. He supposedly tried to shoot his ex-manager Clifford Davis when he delivered his royalty check. The police came and arrested Green and he was put in prison. But Green, while not denying the story's basic facts to Q magazine in 1997, does have a somewhat less dramatic memory of events 20 years previous. For one thing, he says, the gun in question was a .22 rifle, the kind you'll find at a fairground, and he didn't even own any bullets. As for actually threatening to shoot his ex-manager, Green explains that while a threat was made, it was made on the phone. But, as he told Q, the media always like a good story. more on this story

Stone Roses Gig Provides Background for New Film
(Gibson) The Legendary Spike Island gig, the high point of Manchester band The Stone Roses' career, is going to provide the backdrop for a new British film.

According to BBC News, the band's momentous 1990 outdoor show will feature prominently in the unnamed movie about a young, unsigned band from the wrong side of the tracks.

"This is a raw and truly authentic rites-of-passage story," director Tom Green said. "It's full of the humor, heartache, dreams and fears of being part of a brotherhood of mates, and set to the greatest record ever written. The Roses died in '95. This is the resurrection." more on this story

Gibson Bringing Back Classic 60s Les Pauls and SGs
This month, Gibson has begun production on both a Les Paul Studio '60s Tribute and an SG Special '60s Tribute.

As with the '50s Tributes, both guitars take their cues from classic historical models, but add a simplicity in design that strips away all pretensions and gives the player a lighter, less-costly, easier-to-play instrument that still retains the elegance of the original designs.

Both guitars also feature classic P-90 pickups – Gibson's first electric pickup, that has withstood every musical trend for the last 60 years and is still a mainstay on stage and in the studio. more on this story

A Life Once Lost To Begin Recording New Album
A Life Once Lost have announced that their new label home is Season Of Mist. A Life Once Lost is also thrilled to announce their upcoming run with technical metal kings Atheist. In addition, Revocation and Last Chance to Reason will appear on the tour.

"After over a year and a half of working on this record and setback after setback we can finally announce that it is coming out on SEASON OF MIST in 2011," affirms guitarist Doug Sabolick. "Taking time away from the road helped us look at the band from an outside perspective, which then helped mold a record that encompasses our collective mood over the past few years in typical ALOL fashion. Musically, the theme of this record is to pummel the listener into submission via ignorant riffs. We are finishing writing and demo-ing as we speak and look forward to working hand in hand with SEASON OF MIST to deliver our vision to the masses."

The band is currently finishing up the writing process, and are about to begin recording in Philadelphia. Paul Romano (Mastodon, Trivium, The Red Chord), designer of the album art for previous A Life Once Lost records Hunter and Iron Gag, is confirmed to illustrate the album art. more on this story
