Legendary drummer Paul Bostaph (ex-EXODUS, ex-SLAYER) will join the ranks alongside originating classic thrash legends TESTAMENT - Chuck Billy on vocals, Alex Skolnick on lead guitar, Eric Peterson on rhythm guitar and Greg Christian on bass. Unfortunately Nick Barker will not be recording with TESTAMENT on this new album, due to Homeland Security and International Work Visa issues. Rather than delaying this long awaited return of TESTAMENT, the band has chosen to recruit Paul Bostaph, long time friend and member, to record on the much anticipated album, which is tentatively scheduled for a spring 2008 release via Nuclear Blast.

On October 19th, Einstürzende Neubauten are to release their new, independently produced album "Alles wieder Offen" for the EU market (US fans will have to wait until October 23). Working outside normal record business market mechanisms, Einstürzende Neubauten recorded the CD over some 200 days in their own studio funded by their world-wide network of subscribing Supporters via www.neubauten.org. In an interview for Re-public Blixa has been quoted saying that if the record releasing process (i.e. supporter subscriptions, self released album, independent promotion) doesn't work out financially this time around they "will not be able to continue working". If this means that the band would fold alltogether is not clear yet. However, it also means that releasing material outside a label is not always the easiest thing to do, especially financially. - AREA4 2008 - Ticket presale starts now
