SIX FEET UNDER: VIP Bundles For The Hell In July Tour Available Now

SIX FEET UNDER are currently preparing for their next round of tour dates in support of Unborn. As previously announced, Decrepit Birth and Cannabis Corpse will be joining them on this tour. Additionally, up-and-coming actDealey Plaza will open the show. The tour begins July 10th in Houston  and VIP bundles are currently available via shop.soundcheckhollywood.collections.Hell-In-July-Tour . Bundles include a ticket to the show, SIX FEET UNDER shirt, a limited "Hell In July" poster, and a back stage pre-show hang with founding vocalist, Chris Barnes.

Comments Barnes: "Hello, all you sick fucks! Summer tours in the U.S. are always a blast, and this one is set up for sheer devastation with opening bands Decrepit Birth, Cannabis Corpse and Dealey Plaza! I would just like to take this time to say and send a personal message to those in Denver as well as Seattle: You may want to stock up and/or possibly grow twice as much cannabis as you have been, because once SFU and Cannabis Corpse roll into those towns, the sheer magnitude of smoking may - 1. Drain the cannabis supply of those two said cities or 2. Possibly cause low cloud formations. Fog lights should be used on all vehicles to and from the concert.

"On a side note, I'm super excited to have the opening band Dealey Plaza join us. They are a really killer new band and put a on a ferocious live show. Drumming for Dealey Plaza is my nephew, Ryley Dipaola.  He beats the shit out of the drums, and it makes me really proud to have my nephew on the road with me! I'm more proud than I can say about that, so I hope everyone will come out to the shows and support all these great musicians and great bands that are on tour with us this summer for Hell In July! And we will see everyone else real soon! Lots more tour dates to be announced in the coming months, so stay sick and twisted!"

Mixed and mastered by Zeuss at Planet Z, SIX FEET UNDER's latest album, Unborn, was released on March 19th via Metal Blade Records, and features tracks written in collaboration with Ben Savage (Whitechapel) and Jari Laine (Torture Killer).

KISSIN' DYNAMITE unveils new video Six Feet Under

Germany's young sleaze rock crew KISSIN’ DYNAMITE unleashed their newest full-length Money, Sex & Power onto hard-partying North American crowds on April 24th. Now, the band has posted a new fantastic video for the song "Six Feet Under", check out below.

Considered to be the great hope of the German hard rock scene, KISSIN’ DYNAMITE have dominated stages across Europe since the release of their debut album Steel Of Swabia in 2008, when the singer was just 16 years old!  After winning over crowd after crowd with their energetic live show and infectious anthems, the band's sophomore albumAddicted To Metal was released by Germany's massive AFM Records in 2010, which even featured the legendary Udo Dirkschneider (Accept, U.D.O.) on the title track.

Their success and experiences over the past few years have shaped the band and increased their professionalism in every department, which is apparent on their  third full-length, Money, Sex & Power. Here KISSIN’ DYNAMITE release ten blazing numbers which still follow the classic metal path of previous releases, yet more than before they display their very own brand of sleazy heavy rock, inspired greatly from timeless masters of the art including Mötley Crue, Whitesnake, AC/DC and Guns 'N Roses. Money, Sex & Power showcases the band taking their authentic, raw, melodic and powerful songs to new levels, and sees them more determined to dominate the rock scene than ever before.





The band is on tour with DRAGONFORCE and Huntress right now, see http://www.kissin-dynamite.de/en/dates for dates!

SIX FEET UNDER: 18 Nights Of Blood Tour To Commence This Friday


With nationwide speculation that the zombie apocalypse is officially upon us, it would only seem appropropriate for SIX FEET UNDER’s 18 Nights Of Blood Tour to commence this Friday! The near three-week run of live rituals will begin in Atlanta, Georgia and cannibalize its way across the U.S. coming to a close on the band’s home turf of Tampa, Florida. Blood shall be spilled, faces eaten and brains devoured! No one is safe. SIX FEET UNDER will be joined by newly recruited rhythm guitarist Ola Englund who takes the place of Rob Arnold. Support will be provided by Dying Fetus and Revocation.

The band will be touring in support of Undead, their latest installment of misanthropic brutality, which toppled Billboard charts upon its first week of release. (Undead entered the Heatseekers Chart at #, #30 on the Top Independent Album Chart, #22 on the Top Hard Music Albums Chart, #14 on the Top Current Albums Chart and #183 on the Top 200 Chart!). Critically lauded by fans and media alike, Decibel Magazine dubbed the record “the best thing SFU have recorded since Maximum Violence,” while Terrorizer commended the offering noting,“…this is truly an unearthly noise and glorious in its heaving absurdity.”Outburn agreed calling Undead, “an album on which this new level of musicianship adds value without tarnishing SIX FEET UNDER’s legacy of brutality.” Added MetalSucks thoughtfully: “What makes Undead work is a balance between the tooth grinding intensity of its blasts and the bone-strewn muck of its down-tempo bits.”

Undead was unleashed to North American ears via Metal Blade on May 22 and offers an updated lineup of Barnes alongside guitarist Rob Arnold (ex- Chimaira), longtime guitarist Steve Swanson (ex-Massacre), bassist Jeff Hughell (ex-Brain Drill, ex-Vile), and drummer Kevin Talley (Dying Fetus, Misery Index, Chimaira).

This marks the first time in SIX FEET UNDER’s career, as well as my own, that we have reached Billboard’s Top 200. It is proof positive that underground music and death metal is not dead and is still a force to be dealt with. A very special thanks to the decades of hate that spawned the focus that went into this album. Cheers! It's 4:20, motherfucker!”

SIX FEET UNDER Welcome New Guitarist; Undead Drops Today!


Band To Embark Upon 18 Nights Of Blood Tour Next Month.

Death metal ministers SIX FEET UNDER today announce the addition of rhythm guitarist Ola Englund to their legendary ranks. England, who will make his first official appearance with the band on the 18 Nights Of Blood Tour set to commence next month, takes the place of Rob Arnold.

Comments founding vocalist Chris Barnes of the new recruit:  “Ola is an amazing guitarist and was chosen for his superlative technique and style of playing. We believe he will be the perfect complement to Steve Swanson, and the devastating rhythm section that is Talley/Hughell. Steve, Kevin, Jeff and myself are so looking forward to Ola's entrance into the band upon the release of Undead and the commencement of our first tour next month with Dying Fetus and Revocation. We can’t wait for you to witness the new killing machine that is SIX FEET UNDER! Ola takes over duties for our good friend and death metal warrior Rob Arnold who will be retiring from touring but will remain a central writing partner and fellow collaborator on future SFU releases. We are all sad to not have Rob on the road with us, but are confidant and 110% psyched that Ola is now within the ranks of the Undead and will be ready to lay waste to every stop along the way! Hails!”

Adds Englund: "When I got the call from Chris, it felt unreal; first thing that popped up in my head was, ‘why the hell did he want me -- the total gear nerd from Sweden -- to join his awesome band? To be able to share the stage with one of the biggest icons in death metal and the other killer musicians in SFU is a complete honor and a dream come true for me. I couldn't be happier about the situation! Also the new album blew my mind the first time I heard it, it's intense as hell, but still has the riffs and the grooves that SIX FEET UNDER swears by. Fans are going to love it! I’m looking forward to kick some serious ass together with Chris, Kevin, Steve and Jeff! See you on tour!"

Check out video footage documenting Englund’s guitar skills below.
Undead was officially released in North America today via Metal Blade Records. Called “the best thing SFU have recorded since Maximum Violence,” in a recent 8/10 review by Decibel Magazine, the record was produced by Mark Lewis (Deicide, Devildriver), mixed by Jason Suecof (Whitechapel, Job For A Cowboy) and features the recording line up of Barnes alongside guitarist Rob Arnold (ex- Chimaira), longtime guitarist Steve Swanson (ex-Massacre), bassist Jeff Hughell (ex-Brain Drill, ex-Vile), and drummer Kevin Talley (Dying Fetus, Misery Index, Chimaira).
To celebrate its release SIX FEET UNDER will slaughter souls on a near three-week run of live ceremonies this June. The 18 Nights Of Blood Tour will begin in Atlanta, Georgia on June 8. Support will be provided by Dying Fetus and Revocation.

SIX FEET UNDER: Posted New Lyric Video “18 Days”

Today premier horror portal Bloody Disgusting hosts the latest “18 Days” lyric video from death metal merchants, SIX FEET UNDER. The apocalyptic hymn comes off the band’s forthcoming new studio effort, Undead, set for North American release on May 22, 2012 through Metal Blade Records. 

Notorious for his elegiac themes of murder, death and the supernatural, on Undead vocalist and lyrical mastermind Chris Barnes revisits topics that will be familiar to fans of the band, though as always he brings something new to the table, aware that their followers will not accept recycled ideas. Notes Barnes: “The hypocrisies of daily life, things that affect us that spawn aggression, loneliness, sadness, there’s a lot of emotions going on across the record, and I guess that the dark horror that humans cause is my niche,” However, while Barnes has a very clear vision for his craft, he is always excited by the interpretations of his songs by those who listen to them, feeding on the emotional investment they put in. “I love it when people tell me what they’ve got from the music and the lyrics. It’s like being an artist, you put the painting up on the wall – you know what it is, but sometimes it’s a little abstract and someone sees something else in it, and that’s the biggest compliment to me. That I’m able to get inside someone’s head and they actually give thought to something presented to them is inspiring to me too, and something I always want to be able to do with this band.” 

Peep the “18 Days” lyric video at THIS LOCATION.Undead was produced by Mark Lewis (Deicide, Devildriver), mixed by Jason Suecof (Whitechapel, Job For A Cowboy), at Audio Hammer Studios in Sanford, Florida and features the updated lineup of Barnes alongside guitarist Rob Arnold (ex- Chimaira), longtime guitarist Steve Swanson (ex-Massacre), bassist Jeff Hughell (ex-Brain Drill, ex-Vile), and drummer Kevin Talley (Dying Fetus, Misery Index, Chimaira). Last week Metal Blade TV aired an exclusive interview with Barnes as conducted by Metal Blade CEO Brian Slagel. To check out the interview, as well as first single, "Formaldehyde,” and limited pre-order options, point your browser HERE.

In conjunction with the release of Undead, SIX FEET UNDER will demolish the masses on a near three-week run of live rituals this June. The 18 Nights Of Blood Tour will begin in Atlanta, Georgia on June 8. Support will be provided by Dying Fetus and Revocation.

I’m super excited about the new record. It’s a rejuvenation; it’s a rebirth of SIX FEET UNDER, and fans will definitely latch on to my excitement and how focused I am in the lyrics I’ve written… The hypocrisies of daily life, things that affect us that spawn aggression, loneliness, sadness, there’s a lot of emotions going on across the record, and I guess that the dark horror that humans cause is my niche.”

Inside Out: Meus parabéns pelo último álbum do SIX FEET UNDER, "Death Rituals". Cara, está muito bom! Como tem sido a reação dos amigos, família e fãs que já ouviram o disco?

Chris Barnes: "Muito boa. Logo que terminamos de gravar, tiveram algumas pessoas que ouviram o trabalho e eles gostaram muito, e certamente pessoas que ouviram algumas faixas promo, e realmente respeitamos a opiniao dessas pessoas. Sempre é muito bom ter 'toques' de pessoas que estão por perto. Muitos fãs que já ouviram o álbum gostaram pra caramba, logo, penso que todos os nossos fãs acreditarão que este foi um trabalho muito bom para nós".

Inside Out: Este é o oitavo álbum do SIX FEET UNDER, sem contar os de releituras ("Graveyard Classics"). Depois de muitos anos escrevendo e gravando, o que você ainda espera alcançar?

Chris Barnes: "Apenas continuar mandando as coisas da mesma forma que mandamos, e esperar que tudo vai se juntar e vamos criar mais músicas boas que surpreenderão a nós mesmos. Sempre cuidamos de cada detalhe da música, do início ao fim do álbum, como se fosse nosso primeiro disco. Eu jogo no ar tudo que já fiz e deixo que a música nos leve para o caminho que tem que nos levar, e acredito que todos da banda façam o mesmo. Eu gosto detrabalhar desta maneira e a gente deixa isso acontecer e não nos aborrecemos muito. Acredito que esta é a unica maneira de se fazer. Se voce começar a se preocupar com o que está acontecendo e o que as pessoas pensarão, sempre ficará para trás. Impossível agradar a todos; você deve compor o melhor que puder e o que lhe faça sentir-se bem".

Inside Out: Sem dúvida você é um tremendo vocalista. Quanto tempo levou para gravar sua parte do "Death Rituals"?

Chris Barnes: "Em torno de três ou quatro dias mandando bala".

Inside Out: Voce produziu este álbum, assim como vêm sendo o caso de outros materiais do SIX FEET UNDER. Por que vocês não procuram alguém para produzir? Você obviamente se sente bem cuidando disto!

Chris Barnes: "Sim, eu aprendi com o tempo que se você quer algo bem feito, voce mesmo tem que fazer. É bem difícil; eu sempre digo - 'vou deixar alguem produzir o proximo', mas quando chega na hora H, eu penso que de maneira alguma eu permitiria que alguem fodesse com o material. Se for para sair com problemas, eu assumo total responsabilidade disso. Eu tenho problemas assim em todos os sentidos da minha vida [risos], e com a música não é diferente. Eu gosto de manter o trabalho puro e limpo, cru e da maneira que nós mesmos gostamos!"

Inside Out: [Risos] Agora que o "Death Rituals" foi lançado, creio que logo vocês estarão na estrada. Quais os planos para turnês nos próximos meses?

Chris Barnes: "Não temos nada planejado agora. Estamos analisando algumas coisas, alguns festivais na Europa no verão que estão mais do que cheios, mas não divulgamos nada ainda. Tentaremos marcar algo nos Estados Unidos para o fim da Primavera. Estamos também vendo algo na Europa para o fim do ano. Temos algum tempo para explorar lugares onde não tocamos há algum tempo. Sem dúvida seria muito legal voltar para a Austrália!"

Inside Out: Com o passar do tempo, você dividiu o palco com grandes artistas. Quem deu melhores conselhos e qual foi?

Chris Barnes: "Bem, poucas pessoas nos deram reais toques na estrada, mas Ice T nos deu um conselho muito bom no estúdio há um tempo atrás, eu ouvi uma entrevista dele onde lhe foi perguntado 'Quão dificil são as coisas? Continua ensaiando muito? É dificil voltar a escrever um novo álbum?', e ele respondeu: 'Chega um ponto que sua vida não é o que você faz, mas sim o que você é", e aquilo me tocou e isso é algo que eu sempre vou me lembrar".

Inside Out: O que seus pais achavam da banda, principalmente lá no início?

Chris Barnes: "Eles sempre foram orgulhosos de mim e me motivaram bastante. Eu sou muito sortudo de ter uma família mente aberta e isso me ajudou a desenvolver meu lado criativo. Minha mãe sempre me ajudou, sem ela eu jamais teria entrado em uma banda, pois foi ela quem me ajudou a comprar o meu primeiro sistema de P.A. Meu pai também sempre me motivou durante todos esses anos".

Inside Out: Após mais de vinte anos, o que lhe motiva a continuar fazendo musica?

Chris Barnes: "Continua sendo divertido; para mim é muito bom estar em uma banda. Compor novo material e entrar em estúdio para gravar. Estúdio pode ser bem estressante e complicado, mas escrever e compor novas músicas, novas letras, é o mais divertido".

Inside Out: Você tem uma ótima voz e está cantando este tipo de Metal há anos. Com o passar do tempo, acha que fica cada vez mais desafiador subir no palco e mandar ver?

Chris Barnes: "É mais fácil e mais difícil, depende do ponto de vista. É facil subir lá e cantar. Estou ciente do que posso e não posso fazer e até onde eu posso ir, mas o corpo nao se recupera tão fácil como antes. Eu tenho que me manter em forma mais do que antes [risos]. Eu tenho que controlar o que faço, e manter a boa forma".
