• STORACE 'Live And Let Live' Album Reissue - Special Edition with Bonus Live Album Out NOW via Frontiers Music Srl

  Dec 14, 2024 Al Feliciano 0 Comments

  Swiss rock legend Marc Storace’s own band, STORACE, announce the release of the album reissue of their first record 'Live And Let Live', in a special edition including a bonus live album, out now via Frontiers Music Srl. 

   

  The focus track, “Midnite Maniac” and the accompanying visualizer, are also available now.

   

  Marc Storace describes the new single, by saying:

   

  “'Midnite Maniac' is a popular Krokus song from the 80’s that Krokus never play! It came off 'The Blitz' album. Back in the 80’s, MTV had the video on full rotation! It talks about a female serial killer.”

   

  Talking about the album release, Storace comments:

   

  “Krokus had stopped to exist because of Covid and no one really knew what the outcome of the pandemic would be, so not wasting time I started working on a solo album! 'Live And Let Live' is rich in melodic vocals, colourful riffs, great guitar solos, many hooks and a solid driving rhythm section!!”

  On the bonus album, Marc Storace notes:   “During the past three intensive years playing throughout Switzerland we recorded many gigs and the live album features the best of the crop, highlighting songs we recorded during hot performances in Zürich’s Hallenstadion as special guests of KISS, and The Scorpions, and whilst sharing the famous 'Rock The Ring Festival' stage with Alice Cooper and his notorious band."   “Included on the setlist are songs from Krokus which we never play, like 'Midnite Maniac' and 'To The Top'; also a beefed up version of 'Telephone Man' from my late seventies London band Eazy Money”, he continues.   'Live And Let Live' is STORACE’s first official solo album. It was recorded during the 2021 lockdown of the Covid pandemic and was produced by Cyrill Camenzind and Massimo Buonanno at Powerplay Studios, near Zürich.   Cyrill, Massi, and Marc composed some of the songs together, and they played on the album which also features the talented musicians Marco Blöchlinger on bass, Christian Roffler on keys, Jean Pierre Von Dach on lead guitar, and Gee K, Micha Dettwyler and Céline Haleson backing vocals.   'Live And Let Live' was officially released in Switzerland on December 18, 2021, during a gig at the legendary Music-Club outside Bern called the “Mühle Hunziken." It was performed by the studio band, all except J.P. Von Dach, who had been replaced by Turi Wicki due to his heavy touring commitments with Joss Stone.

• SUBWAY TO SALLY Joins Forces with WARKINGS for Ultimate Anthem "Stahl auf Stahl" + Official Music Video!

  Nov 27, 2024 Al Feliciano 0 Comments

  With their new single “Stahl auf Stahl”, SUBWAY TO SALLY combine their signature sound with the driving power metal of WARKINGS, forging a true masterpiece together. The track seamlessly blends SUBWAY TO SALLY’s heavy riffs with a captivating chorus and vocals that reach new heights, offering a taste of their upcoming studio album, 'Post Mortem', set to release on December 20, 2024 via Napalm Records.

   

  “Stahl auf Stahl” is an anthem of resistance and strength. With lines like “Hämmern wir, so laut wie es nur geht, die Welt soll von uns hören” (“We hammer as loud as we can, so the world will hear us”), the song ignites a fire of courage that pushes the limits of what’s possible. It’s not only a hymn of bravery but also one of rebirth—like a phoenix rising from the ashes, escaping the darkness, and heralding a new day for us all.

   

  This impressive collaboration between SUBWAY TO SALLY and WARKINGS is reflected in the dual vocals, emphasizing themes of invincibility and an unbreakable sense of unity. But this won’t be the last time the bands join forces—both acts will take the stage together this December on the Eisheilige Nacht-tour.

   

  SUBWAY TO SALLY about the new single:

   

  “WARKINGS are our co-headliner for this year’s Eisheilige Nacht! Their intense touring activities caught our attention some time ago, and we’re confident they will ignite a true metal firestorm and make the Eisheilige Nacht an unforgettable experience with their show. This collaboration quickly led to the idea of a joint song, which we wrote and, of course, performed together. 'Stahl auf Stahl' is a powerful medieval metal banger and an exciting experiment for both WARKINGS and SUBWAY TO SALLY – one that can truly be called a success!”

   

  WARKINGS add:

   

  “Joining the legendary Eisheilige Nacht-tour with Subway to Sally is like marching into battle with the mightiest warriors by our side!

   

  "And to make it even more epic, we forged 'Stahl auf Stahl', an anthem of steel and fire that will echo through the halls of Valhalla—and every stage we conquer together. Bring your helmets, folks—this is gonna be wild!“

  German Folk Metal Legends SUBWAY TO SALLY Celebrate Their Rebirth with Their 15th Studio Album!   Not even two years have passed since the release of their previous record 'Himmelfahrt' in 2023, and initially, the band had secretly planned for it to be their last album. With a symbolic title, the genre-defining force from Potsdam, Germany intended to close their over 30-year career with dignity. But things took a different turn. SUBWAY TO SALLY undeniably struck a chord with the times, and the response to 'Himmelfahrt' was overwhelmingly positive from both fans and critics alike. After a tour with many sold-out shows, it became abundantly clear that their 14th album was not the final chapter. The album’s release unleashed an unstoppable sense of lightness and energy that sparked their creativity to such an extent that SUBWAY TO SALLY is now ready with their brand-new masterpiece, 'Post Mortem', following the fastest creative process in the band’s history.   The new masterpiece begins with the explosive track "Phönix", which celebrates the creative rebirth of the folk metal institution. On 'Post Mortem', SUBWAY TO SALLY neither look back nor into the future, but rather delivers a sharp analysis of the present. Songs like "Wunder","Nero", "Lumpensammler", and "Die Erde bebt" offer the band’s signature soundscape while exploring socially critical themes without moralizing. This serious side is contrasted by captivating tracks that celebrate life and the simple joy of music. The anthemic title track "Post Mortem", the rousing "Unter dem Banner", and the poetic ballad "Herz in der Rinde"unleash an uncanny joy of playing. All songs unite the band’s familiar trademarks of great melodies and profound lyrics but never feel redundant. The haunting "Atlas" melancholically draws on Greek mythology, while the folk metallers showcase a heavier yet melodic side on "Stahl auf Stahl". For this piece, they enlisted their labelmates Warkings as guest performers, whose power metal adds a unique flavor to the track. With English lyrics in the chorus, SUBWAY TO SALLY return to their roots. With "Kummerkind", the septet tackles mental struggles that many people cannot escape, once again proving their precise grasp of the zeitgeist.   SUBWAY TO SALLY comment:   "In this world of contradictions and changes, finding a voice seems difficult. But upon closer inspection, one finds parallels in history and art. What do Putin and Nero, Oppenheimer and Prometheus have in common? What rises from the ashes of Rome? Does history truly repeat itself – once as tragedy, the other time as farce?"   SUBWAY TO SALLY skillfully explore this tension between past, future, and present, art and political reality with their music, making it clear with 'Post Mortem' that they are more alive than ever before.
