Today Nightwish announced on their official homepage that they have parted ways with their singer Anette Olzon who replaced Tarja a few years back. Here is the official statement from the band.
Another chapter of the Nightwish story has ended today. Nightwish and Anette Olzon have decided to part company, in mutual understanding, for the good of all parties involved.
In recent times it has become increasingly obvious that the direction and the needs of the band were in conflict, and this has led to a division from which we cannot recover.
Nightwish has no intention of cancelling any upcoming shows, and as a result we have decided to bring in a substitute vocalist starting in Seattle 1.10.2012. Her name is Floor Jansen from The Netherlands (ex-After Forever, ReVamp), and she has graciously stepped in to help us complete the Imaginaerum world tour. We are all strongly committed to this journey, this vehicle of spirit, and we are sure that this will lead to a brighter future for everyone. We forever remain excited about the adventures to come, and we are extremely proud of the two beautiful albums and the wonderful shows we shared together.

“The title Lights Out summarizes the feeling of the album and the feeling we have as a band. That we live in a strange time where nothing is as it seems.” Says drummer Axel Sjöberg.
And about the coverart for Lights Out Axel says “We know that we and everyone around us was more than stoked on the cover of “Hisingen Blues” and that we now have to find an equally strong idea. We’re almost done, and without having seen the final version, we can say that we are convinced that no one will be disappointed on the cover of Ligths Out.”

Motley Crue’s brand new song “Sex” will finally be released, i was hoping for it to be released in time for the European tour, that didn’t happened, but now it seems they will release it in time for the American tour with Kiss. So maybe they also include it in their setlist on the US tour.
“Sex” will debut on Friday, July 13 on SiriusXM and be available on Tuesday, July 17 — three days before the tour begins.
As i understand the single will only be available as a digital download (mp3 and flac), too bad, but really looking forward to hear the song! I will post it here on this blog as soon as it is made available.
Update: Motley.com have now posted a 30 seconds preview clip, you can listen to it here, it sure does sound promising!
Kirk Hammett is well known for collecting old horror movie stuff and today he announced the release date of his book Too Much Horror Business (yeah, a little nod to The Misfits song there) a book in wich he will show off his huge collection of memorbilia. Looks like a book well worth picking up. Here is the pressrelease from Metallicas official website:
Metallica’s Kirk Hammett announced today that he will publish his first book, Too Much Horror Business – The Kirk Hammett Collection, this October via Abrams Image. Documenting Kirk’s love of all things horror, and the legendary collection of horror memorabilia he has amassed over the years, TMHB is a stunning 228 page, hardback, large format coffee table book featuring well over 300 full color images from Kirk’s private collection and exclusive set photography by Mark Leialoha and Joe Gibbs. There will be three extensive conversations with writer Steffan Chirazi covering the importance of collecting in Hammett’s life from childhood, plus written captions by Kirk for many of the items displayed in the book.
“This is my gift to all the other horror nerds out there who are just like me,” says Kirk, “it’s been made with great love for all the many characters and movies which guided me through childhood, into adulthood and which still keep me on track today.”
