WHITESNAKE TO RELEASE NEW LIVE 2-CD PACKAGE “MADE IN BRITAIN-THE WORLD RECORD” IN JULY

WS MIB-TWR Frontiers Records is pleased to announce an explosive new double live album from legendary rock band, Whitesnake. Made In Britain-The World Record, will be released as a 2-CD set in Europe on July 5th and in North America on July 9th.

During 2011, the mighty Whitesnake embarked on one of their most successful world tours in recent times, performing 96 shows in more than 35 countries, starting in North America in May until the second UK run in December. The request for another live album came from Whitesnake’s incredibly loyal fans – never ones for being notoriously shy about insisting what they want from their favorite band. Before heading out on the Forevermore World Tour 2011, the decision was made to record every performance on the tour.

After spending the early part of 2012 editing and mixing the Whitesnake: Made In Japan DVD, the production team consisting of The Brutal Brothers (Whitesnake frontman David Coverdale and Doug and Mikey Mac), had the task of listening to over 90 shows and 130 hours of Whitesnake performances. Inspired by the performances from the 9 sold-out UK shows and a further 87 performances from around the world, the live albums Made In Britain and the accompanying The World Record were born. The recent Forevermore songs shine as brightly as classic Whitesnake songs such as Is This Love, Still Of The Night and Here I Go Again, all performed with feverish energy, encouraged by remarkably enthusiastic audiences from Newcastle to Sao Paolo. Please see below for the full track listing.

Musicians on Made In Britain-The World Record include David Coverdale (vocals), Doug Aldrich (guitars), Reb Beach (guitars), Michael Devin (bass), Briian Tichy (drums) and special guest Brian Ruedy (keyboards).

Watch a trailer for Made In Britain-The World Record below.

Formed in 1977, and steered by the legendary David Coverdale, Whitesnake carry a rightful reputation as one of the world’s leading rock bands. Coverdale’s blues roots, combined with a feral sense of rock and roll, have consistently shaped the ‘Snake’s sound along with Coverdale’s love and appreciation of impeccable musicianship. Whitesnake’s ascent to the very top of the rock n’ roll heap was confirmed with 1987’s self-titled mega-platinum album, which saw two massive Top 10 hits, two #1 singles with Here I Go Again and Is This Love and a virtual 24-hour domination of MTV around the world. David Coverdale was recently named one of Revolver’s “100 Greatest Living Rock Stars” and the UK’s Kerrang voted Coverdale the “Last Great Rock Star.”

AIRBOURNE DISCUSSES THEIR NEW ALBUM “BLACK DOG BARKING” WHICH WILL BE RELEASED ON MAY 21ST

airbourne Airbourne’s third album, Black Dog Barking, will be released on May 21st through Roadrunner Records. Watch a video with band members discussing the new album below.

Watch the official video for the song Live It Up below.

Inspired by the likes of Judas Priest, Thin Lizzy, AC/DC and Motorhead, Airbourne has been winning fans since 2003 with their high-energy, whiplash-inducing, workingman’s rock ‘n’ roll. Their first album Runnin’ Wild was named 2007′s ‘Album of the Year’ by SleazeRoxx.com, Best Debut Album at the 2008 Metal Hammer Golden Gods awards, and Spin said Runnin’ Wild, Airbourne’s debut, is a smorgasbord of sledgehammer riffs, crass sex puns, and boozy sing-alongs.”

Hailing from Warrnambool, a small drinking town on the southwestern coast of Victoria, Australia, Airbourne — vocalist/lead guitarist Joel O’Keeffe, drummer Ryan O’Keeffe, guitarist David Roads, and bassist Justin Street — has gained an immense following with their explosive live shows and main stage festival appearances including a headliner spot at Wacken 2011, Rock Am Ring/Park (Germany) and Download (UK).

STEVEN ADLER ON HIS CURRENT RELAPSE: “I PICKED UP THE PHONE BEFORE IT GOT OUT OF HAND”

Adler2013 Drummer Steven Adler has released the following statement explaining why he felt the need to go back into rehab:

“I picked up a bottle and drank. This occurred a few times and that is a few times too many. I knew that this had to permanently stop. That is the moment I picked up the phone, before it got out of hand, to get help. I had kicked hard drugs several years ago and now it is time to get rid of the urges of drinking alcohol. I am at a great facility and will stay here until I am comfortable to be home to work the program on my own. I love you all for understanding, being patient and supporting my decision. Like my peers, I will beat this too, so I can return to music and beat my drums!”

As previously reported, Steven’s band, Adler, had to postpone their summer tour due while Adler continues to work on his sobriety.

MOTLEY CRUE’S MICK MARS AMBUSHED ON STAGE BY A FAN

mickmarshat400 Motley Crue guitarist Mick Mars was assaulted on stage after an audience member climbed onstage during the band’s performance in Canada on April 4th.

The chronically ill musician, who suffers from a disease that makes it difficult for him to move, was knocked down by a person who also grabbed singer Vince Neil and struggled with security men.

Mars, who was celebrating his 62nd birthday, later reported his personal guard Rhyno had suffered two broken ribs.

Crue were performing their song Primal Scream when an audience member made it onstage. He ran straight into Mars, sending him to the ground, before making contact with Neil.

The show was stopped as techs restrained the attacker, with bassist Nikki Sixx looking on in concern – and apparently kicking the “fan” – as two roadies picked Mars off the floor and helped him walk off. Drummer Tommy Lee shouted, “What the fuck is wrong with you, you fucking idiot?” Neil then told the crowd, “We might be back,” before disappearing. After a delay they returned and finished the show. Watch the video over at TMZ.

Mars was diagnosed with ankylosing spondylitis at the age of 19 – the incurable genetic condition causes the spine to fuse together, making it difficult to move.

Last year he told Classic Rock Revisited “It’s one of those things that I call an inconvenience. I have days that are worse than others and there is always some amount of pain with my hips.

There are some things that are not so cool, but there is one thing that is cool: I ended up bent. I can always see my guitar. If I’d been straight then I would not be able to see myself play.”

Yesterday he tweeted, “Thank all of you for your concerns about me being knocked down last night. I’m alright; nothing broken. My bodyguard Rhyno got two busted ribs.”
