Last week I got invited to the Shear camp to check out one of their vocal sessions, setting the vox tracks for one of their new songs. And before I even start, the song, jeez, the track sounded so awesomely great that, well, well awesome!

( The Lauri of Shear )

This is me presenting some shots from that very evening to you. Fun fact: Shear is sharing their casa de la sound with Amoral cause of the fact that the bands possess the same drummer dude.

And yes, I have never seen a cooler rehearsal place than this one, I mean, these guys had showers and even a sauna over there, how cool is that?

( The Alexa spin! )

The band have already released a 4-track EP called “In solitude” earlier, which got some really great reviews from metal journalists all over the place, and now, well I don’t exactly know what they have in store for us this time, but I bet we are in for something grand, spectacular and awesome! At least they are currently making demos from a variety of loads of new great tunes, perhaps we can start waitng for a full-lengther? Who knows..

If you haven’t heard any of their tracks, well, head over to their site for some free downloading!

And what else on these guys? Well. This group is awfully talented and I assure you that only greatness, grandeur and heavy progressive metal will come outta these fellas. Be sure to stay updated on the latest from Shear!

( Lauri with some cool licks )

And yes, these guys have done quite alot of shows these past months, I haven’t been able to see them more than two or three times, so if you’ve seen their past shows, did you like it? Cause I know that they have loads of great songs. Please tell me!

Anyway, hope you enjoyed checking in on Shear, have a good one folks!

And a Merry Verry Nice Christmas from Tage to his readers from around the Globe!

It was just minutes before the clock struck Xmas when I got a really nice gift from my fellow internet. The great synthesizer kid from Shear called Lari Sorvo sent me a message on Facebook that my promotional shot of them is found and published on Blabbermouth.net – one of the world’s largest Metal/News sites, oh my cool Jesus! This is some Christmas Gift I tell ya. Thanks Shear for being great!

To celebrate this thing I poured myself a glass of the cheapest wine I could find and went out in the Streets of Waasa for about 3 minutes to take a Christmas shot for your viewing! Yeah! Now that’s some effort. The shot is taken right about when the clock turned Xmas, so that’s some effort right – I mean, who was Santa supposed to expect when he jibbered down the street holding a crooked dildo infected with malaria in his left hand.. He sure didn’t expect the wrath of my 5D Mark II.. You can see Santa in the pic if you have some wild imaginations..

And this very day, before the big night of Santa, Shear released their new Myspace site and even their new official web site, you are very able to check them out by tapping on some of the following links…

SHEAR OFFICIAL WEBSITE

SHEAR OFFICIAL MYSPACE

What gives me joy and pleasure is that the Shear Myspace has had nearly 2000 visits in the first day! Now that’s something for the books, congratu-fucking-lations boys and girl! And an even bigger hand goes out to them for getting themselves to Blabbermouth, awesome news, and good luck to you!

So, with all this said, I wish myself and everyone else a merry fucking Christmas, and a big photogenique hug goes out to Bulgaria and Sweden!

( Merry Christmas everyone )

With everything said this evening, I have nothing left to say! Stay tuned for more stuff when Santa leaves the building, and when he stops the fooling around…
