OCEANO BANNED FROM SEVERAL U.S CLUBS OVER CONTROVERSIAL MYSPACE PHOTOS

OCEANO BANNED FROM SEVERAL U.S CLUBS OVER CONTROVERSIAL MYSPACE PHOTOS

Chicago, IL deathcore band, OCEANO have already had a set of raw and
masochistic photos banned from MySpace and the band is now being
banned from several clubs around the country, due in part to those
very photos

Thanks to the overwhelming hysteria surrounding OCEANO's controversial
promo pictures, a large number of messages have been pouring into the
band's MySpace page from clubs across the country. Here's an example:
"It has been brought to our attention that there were some images of
the band that were banned from myspace. Because we are an all ages,
family friendly venue we pride ourselves on providing a positive
atmosphere for the kids that come in to see shows. Unfortunately,
because of those images and the lyrics to the songs we have found
there is no way you guys will be able to meet those guidelines"

Members of OCEANO have been in contact with several local promoters
and club owners to try and explain their side of things. However,
between the shock of the banned photos and the band's ever-growing
reputation as a dangerous live act, OCEANO's words have been to little
avail. "Everyone's been getting word that we're crazy and our fans are
even crazier;" says OCEANO guitarist, Andrew Mikhail. "We're pros!
We're not out to kill anyone. There are some promoters who have
refused to book us because of the type of music we play and how crazy
we can make our fans."

Due to the overwhelming response from fans in Ohio, OCEANO were able
to play a previously-banned club on their most recent U.S. tour.
According to the intimidating OCEANO ax man, "It was a very nice
christian venue, so with the content of those banned photos, I could
see why they initially had a problem with us. It was because of our
fans, though, that they were willing to listen to us and we ended up
playing the show after all." The same cannot yet be said about the
other venues that refuse to book the heaviest, most pissed off band on
the planet.

At this point, according to Mikhail, "Maybe it's time to start living
up to people's expectations and become a truly deadly band."
Sarcastically, he jests "If people think that we're going to go out
and chop up some girls like pieces of meat (like in those pictures),
maybe we should just start murdering people on stage...that'll show em"

ORDER OF ENNEAD TAP DEICIDE GUITARIST, JACK OWEN TO FILL IN ON GUITAR FOR FLORIDA SHOW

ORDER OF ENNEAD TAP DEICIDE GUITARIST, JACK OWEN TO FILL IN ON GUITAR
FOR FLORIDA SHOW

ORDER OF ENNEAD has tapped DEICIDE's, Jack Owen to fill in for
guitarist, John Li for the ONE NIGHT ONLY show in Florida this
September featuring DEICIDE, ORDER OF ENNEAD and ADRIFT. Li will not
be able to play the show due to unavoidable, longstanding commitments.
Owen, who also plays in the hard rock outfit, ADRIFT, will be pulling
triple duty at this show, playing for all 3 bands on the bill. Despite
having the large task of playing for 3 bands in one night in front of
him, that fact does not seem to be phasing him. According to ORDER OF
ENNEAD vocalist/guitarist, Kevin Quirion, Owen is handling the band's
material very well. "We had our first practice with him (Jack) and it
went well. John (Li) was even there helping out."

Jack Owen will not be the only one playing for multiple bands that
night. DEICIDE bandmate and ORDER OF ENNEAD drummer, Steve Asheim will
be will be pulling double duty on this show, playing two full sets
with both bands. "Double duty for me - it shouldn't be too bad;" says
the frantic drummer, Asheim. "I usually run through a couple sets a
night at practice, so i'm ready for anything." Asheim, like Owen is no
stranger to playing at high intensities for long stretches of time is
looking forward to the challenge of playing for both bands in a live
setting. He even offers fans a tip for when they may be in the
position of doing the same thing on their own. "You just gotta stay
hydrated - water, gatorade, that type of thing."

The mighty DEICIDE is back on stage in the U.S. with ORDER OF ENNEAD
(featuring DEICIDE drummer, Steve Asheim and special guest, DEICIDE
guitarist, Jack Owen), appearing together for ONE NIGHT ONLY alongside
the hard rocking ADRIFT (featuring DEICIDE guitarist, Jack Owen) at
The Culture Room in Ft. Lauderdale, FL on September 13.

OCEANO - ORDER THE OFFICIAL "BRINGIN THE BEEF" T-SHIRT FROM THE U.S.
WEBSTORE

You know the unwritten rule. Don't be "That Guy."

Never EVER wear the shirt to a show of the band you're going to see.
If you're going to an OCEANO show, though,Chicago's most pissed off,
deathcore playing, heavy mother fuckers are going to beat you up 'til
you're bloody, battered and broken so it'd be a better idea to wear
OCEANO's brand new "Bringin The Beef" shirt the next day to cover up
your bruises and scars.

This killer OCEANO t-shirt is plain black with silver foil writing on
both sides. It features the OCEANO logo on the front and their motto,
"Bringin The Beef" on the back. Ordering information and pictures of
both sides of the shirt can be found on the EARACHE U.S. WEBSTORE: http://www.earachestore.com/store/oceano.html

OCEANO DODGES TROPICAL STORMS, HURRICANES AND TORNADOES OUT ON TOUR

OCEANO, the heaviest, most pissed off deathcore band on the planet is
currently playing a string of dates in Florida where an already dangerous
Tropical Storm Fay is picking up steam with expectations of it becoming a
full-blown hurricane by Tuesday.

The band is right in the thick of things, having already played Tampa and
Orlando. Tonight, they will be in Pensacola, FL and hope to escape the
looming hurricane before things turn potentially deadly.

Guitarist, Andrew Mikhail gave us a quick weather report, noting the look of
things from OCEANO's van. "It's just dark skies - muggy and raining." "We've
been tryin' to dodge this storm since we got here 2 or 3 days ago." So far,
the band has been successfully able to avoid traveling through the nasty
conditions that the tropical storm has brought thus far, but being in the
thick of even worse conditions haven't stopped them before. "We've been
through tornadoes. We've even gone through really foggy mountains at night
where we couldn't see shit." Miraculously, the band's always made it through
these rough conditions unharmed, intact and ready to blow off their anger on
stage. "The show must go on, y'know?" says the OCEANO guitarist. "We've
drove through em all - just the risk of the road. It's a sense of us vs.
Mother Nature."

No matter how angry Mother Nature can be, OCEANO will ALWAYS be angrier and
carry much more force than a hurricane ever could, especially on stage.
Catch them at these dates:

Aug 18 2008 8:00P

OCEANO - BLOODY NEW PHOTOS BANNED FROM MYSPACE

One of EARACHE's newest signings, the heaviest, most pissed-off deathcore
band in the world, OCEANO, recently posted up a number of pictures onto
MySpace which were promptly removed by site administrators for being "too
violent".

Under MySpace rules and regulations, "images of violence are prohibited" on
the popular social networking site. This led to the photos being taken down
"within a half hour" according to OCEANO guitarist Andrew Mikhail. "They
even took them off our personal profiles. Guess they were too raunchy after
all."

The pictures in question from a recent OCEANO photo shoot hit every measure
of violence imaginable, both simulated and real."On a scale of 1 to 10, we'd
say it was about a 6 on the blood scale." says Mikhail. "We knew how bloody
it was already, but we told the photographer we wanted more. You could never
have enough blood." The models used in the photographs even contributed to
the raw physicality captured in the graphic photos. "These girls were
hardcore" says the imposing OCEANO guitarist. "One of the models kept
telling us stuff like "pull my hair" and "choke me like you wanna fuck me!"
It really made things easier for all of us to get in the spirit of
things...other than the studio smelling of rotten meat."

BONDED BY BLOOD - GUITARIST ALEX LEE COMMENTS ON UPCOMING U.S. TOUR WITH M.O.D.

BONDED BY BLOOD - GUITARIST ALEX LEE COMMENTS ON UPCOMING U.S. TOUR
WITH M.O.D.

BONDED BY BLOOD is currently preparing for two big tours coming up
soon. The first of which is a U.S. run with the ever-sarcastic M.O.D.
Guitarist, Alex Lee, recounts the band's first meeting with M.O.D.
ringleader, Billy Milano at his club in Texas. "Billy's a cool guy and
we loved hanging out with him. We all took to giving each other
nicknames. I remember him starting to call us "Bonded By Burritos" at
some point. Billy's a man who loves his beaner jokes!" Not to be
outdone, even the bartender at the club got into the action. "The
bartender started ripping on Billy after a while," said Alex. "He'd
make fun of his thick Bronx accent - even called him a drama queen for
some reason."

On the subject of BONDED BY BLOOD's upcoming U.S. trek with M.O.D;
Alex says that "We all had a lot of good times before and we're
looking forward to hanging out with Billy and his band on the tour. We
also can't wait to see all of the familiar faces we saw the last time
we passed through on the THRASHING LIKE A MANIAC tour. I hope that
those guys told their friends and that we see many more new faces
along the way."

Catch BONDED BY BLOOD with M.O.D; thrashers-in-crime FUELED BY FIRE
and NIHILIST. Here are the dates:

8/30 San Marcos, CA @ The Jumping Turtle - Burning Star Festival

SSS REVEAL NEW ALBUM TITLE, ENLIST HELP FROM FRANK SIDEBOTTOM

British crossover thrashers SSS have revealed the title of their upcoming
new album as THE DIVIDING LINE.

Due out on September 29th in Europe and November 11th in the US, the limited
edition first pressing of THE DIVIDING LINE comes with a free SK8+DESTROY 7"
picture disc featuring bonus tracks not included on the album. This
exclusive freebie will also feature a very special and rather amusing guest
appearance from English comedian and musician FRANK SIDEBOTTOM.

SSS comment on working with SIDEBOTTOM:

"SSS is stoked to have Frank Sidebottom guesting on our "Sk8+Destroy"
picture disc. His cult status is legendary. For him to get the motor train
up to Liverpool with a permission slip from his mum and lay down some killer
keyboard riffage is beyond a dream come true. We have been long-standing
fans of the Franks for many, many years. Frank has his own style and that's
something we admire. Frank is a true genius.

Iron Maiden have Eddie... Anthrax have Judge Dredd... We don't have Frank
but it's as close as we're going to get!

Our new CD/LP called "The Dividing Line" is out end of Sept with 20 tracks
to break things to. Pick it up and receive a free "Sk8+Destroy" 7" complete
with Frank Sidebottom's bossanova riff action... "You know you should... You
really should. Thank you."

MUNICIPAL WASTE - "WASTE 'EM ALL" LINEUP REUNION

Virginian thrashers MUNICIPAL WASTE report:

In the "Waste 'Em All" years, Municipal Waste developed a reputation that
they are still living up to today. It was due to the early, insane live
performances that set the bar for what people expect to see at a Waste show.
Wind swept circle pits, 69 stage dives, wacky costumes, and pizza shark
boogie bongs still show up whether the band plans it or not. Maybe it was
just the off stage antics, excessive drinking, or the tendency to eat all
the food out of an unsuspecting victim's fridge that sent the message that
was (and still is) very clear: Municipal Waste is gonna fuck you up!

Now you can't rewrite history, but you can relive it on Friday, August 15th
2008 at Alley Katz in Richmond, VA. The Waste will be reuniting the "Waste
'Em All" lineup for one show as part of the 7th annual Best Friends Day
Weekend. The lineup, which includes Brandon Ferrell on drums, Andy Harris on
bass, Tony Foresta on vocals, and Ryan Waste on guitar, will be playing the
"Waste 'Em All" album in it's entirety along with some other classic cuts.

This show is a must see for any true fan of live music! The other acts of
the night include: Paint it Black, Quadiliacha, Caustic Christ, Brutal
Knights, and Religious As Fuck. The show starts at 7pm @ Alley Katz (10
Walnut Alley) and costs $10. Come out and support The Waste and Best Friends
Day 7!

BIOMECHANICAL - NEW INTERVIEW AT WORMWOOD CHRONICLES

Wormwood Chronicles had the opportunity to speak with BIOMECHANICAL
mastermind, John K about the concepts that intertwine all of the band's
records together and the real life concepts that inspired the frenzy of
albums like CANNIBALISED:

"The whole thing started in 1999 when I decided I wanted to write a metal
album. Before that, I concentrated a lot in studying composition,
instrumentation and orchestration so that I would have the right knowledge
to get involved in film music.

My love for film music led me to write an album that followed a story rather
than to write a few songs and then use the most appropriate tracks for the
album. The story grew though and I realized that it would be better to get
it done on three albums. The titles of the albums were there pretty much
from the beginning. Also their content (story wise) and a general idea of
the musical style too. Also the concept behind the story that runs through
the albums doesn¹t necessarily run from A to B but is used as a vehicle to
describe issues that I wanted to talk about through the BIOMECHANICAL music.

The concept of EIGHT MOONS is about fear and our ability (or lack of
ability) to fight against it.It goes through human emotions and describes a
life of a down and out guy who is waiting for a painless death to be freed
from his frail body. On the verge of death he finds hope in the darkest
place of his mind. The inspiration for this came from a real situation. I
read about a Brit who was captured in the Middle East and was tortured
relentlessly. He said that the only way he could survive the torment was by
retreating within himself. It was the only way he could maintain his
sanity.I also wanted to find a metaphor for the everyday horror we call
"life". It's about the fight of your darkest fears (i.e. drug addiction,
abuse) and if you think about it, we all live under different circumstances
that define our universe. A problem to me could be how to sort out my bills
on time,while someone on the other side of the globe is dying from
starvation or torture. The different extremes create very different
perceptions of life and even almost creates two different worlds.

The songs go through the state of mind of the character with "The Awakening"
which brings him to his reality. The album progresses to the point where in
the end he re-awakens to our reality and the cycle goes on and on until he
breaks himself free from his torments.

On the second album THE EMPIRES OF THE WORLDS, he becomes what he was
fighting against.He falls into the trap of the ancient command that has been
running through our veins for ages. It dictates the entire Human race and
drives it to commit horrific atrocities in the name of God, Money, Country.
Constructed reality for a justification of a meaningless purpose. He
re-awakens as the album gets closer to Absolution and realizes the truth
with the tracks, "DNA Metastasis", "Survival", and "Existenz". The track
"Absolution" is about his struggle for spiritual ascension through
realization, and "Disintegration" is the end of all things as he becomes
pure energy in order to obliterate evil.

As I said earlier, it's all a metaphor through a futuristic angle. This
album explores the fact that we as humans are driven to conquer anything
that has a different genetic code than ours.The ancient command that resides
in our genetic blueprint commands us to expand our existence like a virus.
Blinded by everyday life we refuse to accept that our so called "reality" is
a mixture of transmissions and non existent problems thrown at us so that we
can't see the horrific consequences of our will to dominate. We mask the
horrors of reality with what we call 'modern life'. This concept was written
to reflect these issues on a personal level so that the story of the album
is not some kind of a fictional situation - even though it is a futuristic
story - but it becomes one with the listener as these issues derive from
real life.

The last album CANNIBALISED talks about the human spiritual death. About the
fact that the spirit is in constant decline purely because we don't care
about anything other than our own skin. And those who do are lured into the
internet where thoughts have become easily lost. Just log out and the
problem isn't there anymore. In the "real" world we are bombarded by images
of new things to consume and in the meantime society becomes more and more
violent slowly returning to the roots of its primal instincts. Back to the
animal state. Emotionless.

The story is told from somebody who realized there is no way out of this
reality and CANNIBALISED is the acceptance of the death of his spirit. Every
song is a different take of his emotions. The songs don't run like a story
but describe different thoughts as he plunges into darkness."

Read all this and more in Wormwood Chronicles' interview with
BIOMECHANICAL's John K at
http://www.wormwoodchronicles.com/interviews/biomechanical/interview.html

BIOMECHANICAL's new album, CANNIBALISED was picked as one of About.com's top
5 metal cd's of February 2008. About.com calls CANNIBALISED "...an extreme
metal tour de force, both pulverizing and mesmerizing." To see the full
