BACK TO ROCK rocked! - The perfect festival: location, organisation, atmosphere, visitors, bands ... just perfect!
Many thanks to the BTR team for their hospitality, friendliness and chats throughout these two hard-rockin' days.
 
QLR are mighty proud to be affiliated to Mabon and Battalion who knocked people down with their stunning performances.

"Back to Rock goes to Japan with Mystic Prophecy!"

This is your chance to scream "Hi, Mom!" and be heard by thousands of metalheads in Japan. Mystic Prophecy were asked by their label to film their Back To Rock show. The resulting live DVD will be the Japanese bonus disc on MP’s new album, Satanic Curses!

In fact, Unrest will be filming their show as well.
 
We prophecy high times at the Back To Rock Festival 2007 this Friday and Saturday.

Be there! – We know we are!
Also for our moms’ sakes.
Jan & Matt

Friends, fellows, murderers,

Today is a fine day in the history of noise:


The Swiss death metal unit PUNISH is releasing its second full-length album DAWN OF THE MARTYR on Quam Libet Records.

PunishDOTM
The album was produced by Alex Krull (ATROCITY, LEAVES’ EYES) and features the lightning speed drum skills of Reto Crola (REQUIEM). Their top-notch technical and melodic style has earned PUNISH a support slot on last year’s tour with HELHEIM, tracks on German metal magazine sampler CDs … and in a porn movie soundtrack.

The album’s opening track, Obnoxious Objector, is available on the band’s myspace page (www.myspace.com/swissdeathmetalconnexion ).

DAWN OF THE MARTYR is distributed by Twilight Vertrieb / NonStopMusic in Europe.
PUNISH’ entire back catalogue including two EPs is available at Quam Libet Records’ Swiss Metal Mailorder .

Ordering Dawn Of The Martyr directly from us means we’ll throw in a free compilation CD with every order! (As long as stocks last.)

PUNISH are also featured on the current Legacy magazine compilation and reviewed in the Rock Hard magazine.
 
Dawn Radio - 9/10
Heavymetal  - 90/100
Legacy (#49, print) - 11/14
Rock Hard (#243, print) - 7.5/10
