1. Dead Confederate Release Free Live LP “Dirty Ammo” – Free Download!!! Dead Confederate just wrapped up their 2009 tour through Europe...

As frontman Sam McTrusty explains, “We’ve been away for a little while recording Vivarium, so we wanted to give something back to our fan base as a thank you for their patience and continued support.”

As an added bonus, the band will be giving away an acoustic version of “Lightspeed” to those who twitter about it. Fans will be able to download the bonus track in exchange for one tweet via a turnkey interface on Twin Atlantic .

“Lightspeed” follows Twin Atlantic’s critically acclaimed single, “What is Light? Where is Laughter?” (September 2008) and their self-released EP A Guidance from Colour (March 2008). The band has built a supportive following throughout the UK from touring with bands such as Circa Survive, The Subways and Biffy Clyro in addition to opening slots alongside The Smashing Pumpkins and Thrice. During their March ’09 headlining tour they sold out the 1,000 capacity QMU venue in their hometown of Glasgow.

Fresh from their appearance at Donington Park’s Download Festival, and with further festival performances already confirmed at Guilfest, T In The Park and Sonisphere, as well as a soon to be announced headlining Jaunt, the run up to Vivarium, like the record itself – is looking very healthy.

The Vivarium mini-album and preceding single “You’re Turning Into John Wayne” will both be released this fall.

In lieu of cash payment for the new track, WOLFMOTHER is encouraging fans to put their money in a righteous place and donate to the Red Cross Victorian Bushfire Appeal at Redcross.org.au.

“Back Round” was debuted to an international audience just last Friday when the band closed the “MTV Australia Music Awards” in Sydney in electrifying fashion.

On April 17, the performance will be aired across 62 MTV channels and 162 countries in Europe, Asia, America and Canada as part of MTV‘s World Stage programming.

Following the performance, WOLFMOTHER took off to Los Angeles to record the remainder of the sophomore set with acclaimed U.K. producer Alan Moulder, the results of which are set to surface later in the year.

The album’s official first single, “Arma… geddon”, will arrive at radio April 13. Manson’s new lineup, including Ramirez (for the first time in close to a decade), plus keyboardist Chris Vrenna, and drummer Ginger Fish, will close the main stage at the Rockstar Energy Drink Mayhem Festival, this July through August. Manson will also kick off his world tour with a headline festival run this June in Europe.

Produced by Manson, Vrenna and Twiggy, “The High End of Low” was recorded in Manson’s Hollywood Hills studio and also features the track “I Want to Kill You Like They Do In The Movies”. Manson says of the new album, “I think my life definitely ended and began. The record sounds very final, but it’s almost optimistic — though that feels like a strange word to use. It’s a phoenix from the fire and a redemption resurrection.”

In a recent interview with U.K.’s Kerrang! magazine, Marilyn Manson stated about “The High End of Low”, “This is not a record that we would leave black and self-titled and mature. This is the experienced record. This album is the 12th-grade guy that has VD and did cocaine in high school, who has been arrested once and the 9th-grade girl wants to fuck him.

“The songs on this record are quite autobiographical, but they’re also very much their own stories in the same sense as some of my earlier work on ‘Antichrist Superstar’. The songs are in the order in which they were written and sung. It was a story that took place and I didn’t really know what it was going to be ’till it happened. I had to find out how it was going to end in order to end the record. This album left many scars, and I think they are good ones.”

“I wrote all the lyrics on the wall of my room. It wasn’t to be decorative; it was one of those things, like it’s the last thing someone sees before they put them somewhere else. I think it looks good. And if anyone wants to come into this room and fornicate with me, I think they are a keeper… and when I say keeper, I mean kidnapping. I am probably going to do most of the press for the record from my house, before I leave or destroy it, because you can see the story and what the record as made from within the house.”

“During the whole process I took a lot of photos, so the artwork is a lot of storytelling and the way that the songs have turned out is more from my point of view rather than looking at me. Because I always wanted to take pictures, my house is set up like a movie set. Instead of lamps I have movie lights and smoke machines and things.”

“I really look at this record as a film, maybe because I sort of directed it. I stopped trying to conform regular life into the idea that it’s regular life. Why isn’t it all just a movie? If people are watching, they’re watching me being an asshole or being boring or creating something amazing. That’s just a part of the movie. It allowed me to be more creative.”

“’15′ is track 15 on the album. It’s the most important song I think that’s been written by MARILYN MANSON as an entity. It’s the most unusual song I have ever heard. I thought that the album was done, as there is a glorious epic track [before that] that I think will make Twiggy forever recognized as a guitar hero. That felt like the end of the record, but what was happening in my life had not resolved itself. So on January 5, one five, I sang ’15′ and the lyrics will tell the story of that day…”
