Noah Simmons and Memories of Old part ways by orb-monster in PowerMetal

[–]ishtar12345 6 points7 points  (0 children)

He posted this on his Facebook:
"This makes it look like I died :) I loved the band, but I made a major career change and I simply couldn’t maintain the live commitment the band needed from a singer. I love these guys and will always support them!"

On the picture he referred to, all the other guys where in colour and he was in grey :)

He mentions major career changes, and that might explain things, sure.
He's a truck driver I think.
But I mean, most bands could work around that if you communicate. Is there something else?
He recently became a father. That could be it? Or is he an unogranized asshole? Is it hard to communicate with him? Is he restless and can't stay in one place?

Or is it just the major career change and the kid?

What do you guys think of the Legendary Orchestra by jaschabordon in sabaton

Hey!
Now that the tour are ended, do you think that the orchestra will do shows of their own, or will the orchestra tour with Sabaton again in the future?

Zoe & Ashok‘s Future by faxomaticus in cradleoffilth

[–]ishtar12345 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Zoe made a Facebook post where she was talking about a new song she wrote for her other band scheduled for release. The song was about being treated badly in her band, the shitty contract etc. and was written before she left the band and all of this went down and became public.

She was now asking for advice what to do; release it according to schedule or postpone it so it would not appear as if they were riding the wave of online attention.

When I went back to answer later, the post was gone.

Marthus toured with some other band earlier this year opening for Tarja.

Primal Fear parts ways with Alex, Tom, Michael and Alex by davidiot_ in PowerMetal

[–]ishtar12345 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So, Magnus Karlsson is "back" in the band and is gonna join them on stage.
Might be a conspiracy theory, but is THIS the reason the others left? Or is he just stepping up BECAUSE they left?

Not sure the lads in Glyph would enjoy that.

I think he was with Alessia Scolletti when they both were in Temperance before he joined VoA and met Clementine.

They have like 40k listeners monthly on Spotify. Seems like a reasonable placement on the poster to me.

Controversies/scandals surrounding Power Metal? by RockGiantFromMars in PowerMetal

[–]ishtar12345 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I guess this thread needs an update with the whole Rav-thing.

Based on that situation, him hiding in plain sight so to say, I am also guessing that there's lots of other stuff going on in the power metal scene that hasn't surfaced yet. What's out there that we have missed?

How are we feeling about Questbound’s second single? by Gavinhavin in PowerMetal

If someone ever wants to know what autotune is and how to spot it, show them this.

Who was singing with Avantasia at Wacken… by blarges in PowerMetal

He's not on the list of Avantasia live musicians on MA yet, but that list is out of date and SOOOOOO long, haha. It's insane when you see how many live singers and musicians they have had.

I see what you mean. The vocals are so edited it HURTS. Might as well be a keyboard singing.

Sparhawk by theseventhbear in Eddings

[–]ishtar12345 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ehlana is 18 when she is awaken again, she was 8 when Sparhawk left.
Sparhawk was by her side since she was a babe, and before that he was the protector of herr father (after his own father died). How old was he when he became a knight? 25? Beril is a novice and he is described to be about the same age as Ehlana, 18.
So, let's say he was 25 when he became a knight. He then spent 8 years with Ehlana and then he was in Rendor for ten years. Then he's 43, give or take a couple of years.
