Mårten Hagström: MESSHUGAH's Experience Of Performing Without Their Vocalist Jens Kidman!
As previously reported, MESHUGGAH have been performing without their vocalist Jens Kidman (HERE is what he had to say about this). Jens caught that nasty flu that has been floating around and so far has been unavailable for the bands concerts in Atlanta GA, Charlotte NC and Philadelphia PA.
Whether he'll join his bandmates onstage tonight at the Roseland Ballroom in New York City remains to be seen, but rhythm guitarist Mårten Hagström spoke to The Village Voice about the experience of playing sans vocalist.
How does not having a vocalist change the performance experience for you?
The way it sounds is not that different...but it's more the way you feel walking up onstage, not seeing the entire band, because we've never done this before. You're used to being that five-piece unit, walking up and doing this together...but there's no use complaining about it. The only thing we can do is try to make the most out of it. We travelled over here now. A lot of places we play on this tour we haven't really played for a long time, so canceling is not really an option.
Here is some footage of MESHUGGAH performing without Jens Kidman!

MESHUGGAH Flashed Their Cojones Last Night By Performing Without Their Singer Jens Kidman - Video Available!
This past Monday, February 11, Sweden's MESHUGGAH ignited the second leg of the "Ophidian Trek" at the Beacham Theatre in Orlando, Florida.
As previously reported, last night the band were forced to perform without their vocalist Jens Kidman at Center Stage in Atlanta, Georgia. "Jens is down with the flu. And this flu means business. He has been forbidden to even speak. He's mute for now. WE WILL PLAY ANYWAY", commented the band before the show. "So memorize the lyrics and bring your very best growl Atlanta. You will all be Jens tonight!! Lets make this happen! We hope he's back tomorrow, or it'll be vocal-duties Charlotte!"
After the show, they commented: "Atlanta!! You have our deepest gratitude. You helped us turn a really shitty situation into an unbelievable night for us. YOU are Meshuggah. Much love!!" There is no word yet whither or not Jens will be back with the band tonight in Charlotte.
We got to hand it to MESHUGGAH for having the cojones of stepping out of their comfort zone and performing without their singer for the first time ever. And from what we heard, the crowd were very pleased on having the unique opportunity of seeing an instrumental set by one of the most ferocious bands in Heavy Music history. Here is some video footage of the bands performance last night:

SEVENDUST Breaks The Silence & Announce Their NEW Album Title!
As previously reported, Atlanta, Georgia's SEVENDUST has completed production of their ninth studio album. The CD was recorded at Architekt Music studios in Butler, New Jersey with engineer Mike Ferretti. Today, the band has announced that their NEW studio album is called "Black Out The Sun" and they plan to release it in April of 2013. The CD was recorded at Architekt Music studios in Butler, New Jersey with engineer Mike Ferretti. Here is what guitarist Clint Lowery told "Source Of The Sound With Wendy Campbell" about the bands NEW album:
"It's a basic SEVENDUST record. There's nothing, like, too completely different than anything we've done before. It's got a darker vibe to it. We've got a good amount of the programming element in there. It's a lot of what we do — it's heavy and it's got its melodic element in it. So if you're a SEVENDUST fan, it's more along the lines of the second and third records we did — it's kind of like that. It's got a couple of throwback vibes to it. 'Animosity' [2002] and 'Home' [1999], if I can put those two records together, it would [sound similar to the new CD]."
Lowery has also announced that SEVENDUST might be joining forces with LACUNA COIL and COAL CHAMBER in 2013!
SEVENDUST 2012 is:
- Lajon Witherspoon
- John Connolly
- Clint Lowery
- Vince Hornsby
- Morgan Rose
