RIVAL SONS TO PERFORM SECRET ACOUSTIC GIG AT LONDON ST. PANCRAS AT 6:30PM TODAY

Californian blues-rockers RIVAL SONS are due to play a secret acoustic gig today, Thursday, 8th December at St. Pancras International in London, UK as part of the Station Sessions Secret Season in support of housing and homeless charity, Shelter.

The band, who have just wrapped up a hugely successful European headlining tour, will be performing during rush hour at 6:30pm in the station's busy Arcade, in front of the giant LEGO tree.  Supporting RIVAL SONS will be London-based singer-songwriter, IMAN.  The event is free of charge, but donations will be encouraged, with all proceeds going to Shelter.

The secret show is due to take place right before RIVAL SONS perform a special end-of-tour show at Nambucca in London for their UK fans.  Tickets for the show cost just £10 in advance and are available now, while supplies last, at http://bit.ly/uu0eMm

RIVAL SONS frontman JAY BUCHANAN comments:

"This was our second time touring Europe and also our first headlining tour here and 95% of it sold out.  It was such a pleasure to meet the audience every night after the show; thank you Europe.

"We started the tour with crazed UK audiences and after spanking the rest of Europe so nicely it seemed proper to book-end this saga by giving London another romp before she puts on that holiday weight.  We also just added a slew of UK shows in March with Black Stone Cherry, so we'll see you soon."

CEREBRAL BORE KICK OFF MINI UK TOUR TONIGHT

Scottish death metallers CEREBRAL BORE are due to kick off a mini UK tour tonight, Thursday, December 1st, at The Borough in Sunderland.

The four-date mini tour marks the last shows that CEREBRAL BORE will play this year, before returning in full force in 2012.  Joining CEREBRAL BORE on the road are SCORDATURA and LACERATION.

CEREBRAL BORE guitarist PAUL MCGUIRE comments:

"This is our last tour of 2011 and it's great to do it alongside a couple of up-and-coming Scottish bands.  It's usually pretty hellish touring at this time of year in a shit van, sleeping on floors and dealing with the freezing wet weather.  But we will bring the metal regardless, and hopefully the other bands will supply some good local banter and keep the spirits up."

CEREBRAL BORE w/ SCORDATURA, LACERATION
Dec. 01 - Sunderland, UK - The Borough
Dec. 02 - Birmingham, UK - Scruffy Murphy's

EARACHE ANNOUNCES EXTREME STAGE DIVING APP WINNER; STILL OFFERING FREE APPS

In November 2010, Earache Records released EARACHE EXTREME STAGE DIVING, a completely free and highly-addictive app for iPhone, iPod Touch and iPad in which players throw a stage diver off a festival stage and as far into the riotous crowd as possible while rocking out to a raging metal soundtrack.

One year on and gamers and music fans all over the world have thrown the notorious stage diver hundreds of thousands of metres in their quest to reach the top of the leaderboard.

There can only be one reigning champion however, and Earache is pleased to officially announce the Most Extreme Stage Diver as Charles Thompson Moodie from Burnham, England, who managed to throw his stage diver a staggering 25,855 metres.

Earache caught up with Charles to present him with the Extreme Stage Diving trophy and to talk about his achievement.

Earache: Please name your favourite bands.

Charles: "So many!  The Haunted, At The Gates, Hate Eternal, Slayer, 1349, Nile, Motorhead, Pombagira, Slabdragger, Bathory, Satyricon, Deicide, Shining and many more."

Earache: When did you first stage dive (in real life and in the app)?

Charles: "Never stage dived in real life, done many bungee jumps though!  I downloaded and played the game within one month of the app being released."

Earache: You are the highest score holder on the Earache Extreme Stage Diving app - please tell us the story of how this happened.

Charles: "Well, I kept on trying and trying to beat my best score every time.  At first I struggled to beat 300m; I wondered if I'd get past 500m but eventually I did and that was a great feeling.  I kept trying different techniques on the screen - speed, angle and pattern of movement, plus releasing the throw.  Soon I hit over 1,000m and couldn't believe I'd done it but I had.  And it was so rewarding to see the stage diver fly through the air, counting the metres onscreen before he slowly fell back to earth with a bang.  Then I hit over 4,000m, unbelievable!  And quite soon after that, it went to over 11,000m, unreal!

"The technique was working; just the right pattern, speed and angle.  It felt right and I knew I could go further still.  One day at work lunchtime I was giving it another go and, would you believe it, I went more than double my previous best.  To watch the stage diver flying through the air for what must have been a good seven or so minutes was amazing.  He slowly and eventually landed and I'd chalked up and incredible 25,855m, yes!!!!!  That really made my day and nobody has beaten it so far.  I think it'll stay top for some time; maybe it'll never be beaten.  I've tried topping it but so far no joy."

Earache: How has your life changed since you became the Earache Extreme Stage Diving Champion?

Charles: "I've managed to keep both feet on the ground, but I do think about it most days.  It's a good feeling to know I'm number one, King of all Kings!"

Earache: What are your thoughts on the banning of stage diving at gigs and festivals?

Charles: "Killjoys!  Most extreme one I've seen was Slayer, Warfield, February 2002.  Four guys chased one guy out of the pit and knocked me over.  I was fine, but my friend who 'played it safe' in the Circle upstairs ended up with a boot mark on his head from a crowd surfer."

Earache: Now you are Champion of the Earache Extreme Stage Diving app, what will you conquer next?

Charles: "Mount Everest?  Maybe.  I've done the 3 Peaks Challenge, fire walking, sky diving and many other pursuits, mostly for charity.  I'd love to walk the Great Wall of China and do a wing walk, for charity of course."

Earache: What is your advice to novice stage divers and Earache Extreme Stage Diving enthusiasts?

Charles: "If at first you don't succeed, don't give up.  There is a technique; I don't get it right each time, every time.  But when you do hit the sweet spot, it's very satisfying!"

WOODS OF YPRES RELEASE NEW TRACK, DISCUSS FORTHCOMING NEW ALBUM (PART 2)

Canadian blackened doom metal outfit WOODS OF YPRES recently finished recording their new album, WOODS 5: GREY SKIES & ELECTRIC LIGHT, with producer SIEGFRIED MEIER at Beach Road Studios in Ontario, Canada.

The band have released a brand new track from the album, titled "Career Suicide (Is Not Real Suicide)", which is available to listen to now at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1LNbrBbGOH0

WOODS OF YPRES frontman, DAVID GOLD, recently took some time to discuss WOODS 5: GREY SKIES & ELECTRIC LIGHT.  Read part 2 below:

"W5: 'Grey Skies & Electric Light' describes where we're at now.  The colours are black, white, grey, silver and electric blue.  The season is winter.  The location is the city, with forests inside.  Times are bleak but we have things to comfort us.  We pass the time.  Devour life, or let it sit, but universal in desperately trying to salvage and savour the last of it.

"We accept that there is no God, no afterlife, no life before this one, as this is all there is.  Existence is the occupancy of one body and just as Stephen Hawking recently said, 'there is no heaven for broken down computers', and just as simply, nor is there anything more for us.  Death is not a transition, 'Death is Not An Exit (death is the flick of the off switch)', which really, makes so much difference to me in how I conduct my life, knowing that for sure.  At its core, that's what the album is about to me, having one shot at life, carrying grief and longing and emptiness throughout it all.  In the end, what you wanted was what you wanted, whether it was realized or not, you love who you love, anything else won't matter and that's okay.  That's life.

"When writing the album, I'd try to focus on imagining what it would feel like to not exist.  I would still picture it as this endless black space, like outer space full of stars, or a silent black ocean, but that's just my imagination.  I then thought about how a longing that perpetuates unchanged and untouchable throughout eternity is the ultimate tribute, and really, much more romantic and exciting than dying satisfied and wanting nothing more.  I prefer to want forever and I intend to.  That's love.  It's proof that you loved in the first place.  Life changes but love does not.  It's the one thing you can try to have in life, take with you when you go, the one thing you will have always left for others to have and the one thing you allow yourself to have.  Death can be a comforting thought when non-existence would be like a big, black, warm, fuzzy, endless, bottomless, drunk hug goodbye that lasts forever.

"In the end, we are all alone.  It's not who loves you, but who you love and you'll always have that whether that love was reciprocated or not.  In the meantime, we live this bleak life and modern times of grey skies and electric light.  We wait.  We pass the time.  We listen to music."

Part 1 of the discussion is still available at http://bit.ly/prLogR
