From what Ii've seen, there isn't really a news thread. You know, like a thread where people can post any new news they've heard about Rock. Rumors or not, doesn't matter, I say post it. Nothing like getting your hopes up right. So, if you are a rock/alternative/metal head and have some news about any bands. Then I say post.

Oh, I forgot one thing. I'd appreciate it if people didn't just make up stuff, cause I'm interested in whats new. Well anyway, I can start, I've heard from varrying sources that 30 Seconds to Mars is coming out with a new album. If so, I think we are all in for a treat

Freternia won't produce a new album acording to Arise Records. that makes me sad.

Also, Blind Guardian is naming their DVD "Imaginations Through The Looking Glass".

Did Arise Records say why Fraternia won't be making another record?

I really doubt it. He's just trying to make his thread succeed, help him out.

Arise said "Probably, they will not record a new album." ... basically, they were having all sorts of lineup issues and changes, and they weren't exactly popular.

Some news from my side of the fence...

With the G3 tour coming up in Europe this summer, there's word that Robert Fripp's company's (DGM) new subscription website (which is still due) will likely feature an extensive amount of live archives from the tour...

King Crimson is rumored to return to live action in Nashville, likely very late in the summer. They are likely to tour US and likely Japan with (unknown?) new material staritng this fall. Their next rehearsals are scheduled for July.

Robert Fripp and Brian Eno have been recently approached by an undisclosed horror film director, who expressed interest in some of their collaborative music as possible soundtrack...

TU, the duet of Pat Mastelotto (percussion) and Trey Gunn (Warr Guitar) have just released an album! It seems it's only available through online order so far. TU has just finished playing 4 collaborative shows with Finnish duo 'Kluster' in Finland and Japan, and as of today are heading to play 4 shows in Russia (1 St. Petersburg and 3 Moscow, including one at David Sylvian's post-show party...). They announced intentions to continue coming out to play with other duos through the next couple of months... Intriguing improv possibilities...
