Editorial ¡ Greetings readers! It seems like that two years have already passed since in that distant September of the 2015 when decided to give life to this magazine so brilliant! I wanted to thank to all to continue supporting and sharing this magazine! As you can see we have new logo, thanks to Nelson of the Cuban band PrayFourPlages! We are already in September and they approach good news for the Cuban scene. Of the 22 of the present month up to October 2 it will take place the 4th Edition of the Festival of Rock Big Homeland that now (without giving explanation), it changed name for Festival of Latin American and Caribbean Music; and to make matters worse this edition is dedicated to our Guerrillero Heorico, Ernesto "Che" Guevara. Do I wonder, what does it have to do the rock with the history? Perhaps I ask it to the creator and director of this event Sebastian Heredia. Perhaps for when this event concludes it contacts with him and I make him an interview! ¡ Another good one! The next one October 1ro and invited by the band Tendencia it will be presented in the House of the Music of Pinar del Rio the Spanish band Avalanch, like part of the tour that they carry out for the 25 years of the CD "The Fallen Angel". An entire event that is worthwhile not to get lost! And of course that Metal for your Veins will be present in this concert it stops later to point out.
Edition, Design and Realization: Alejandro Pérez Zerquera. Contacts: Lacret 411 apto 4 e/ D’Strampes y Figueroa, Santos Suárez, 10 de Octubre, La Habana, Cuba. Código Postal: 10500.

Hey boys! More than 30 years touring the entire world. How do you feel it? WOLF: Hello, CUBA! I am excited and very, very happy! Thank you! A few days ago finished the Wacken Open Air, in where you played for first time your new album “The Rise of Chaos”. How do you feel it with this new album? How was the reaction of the public during the festival? WOLF: I cannot ad anything than what you see – youtube and live streaming proofed – it as a stunning success. The idea to present 3 parts – made it a total new experience. The best day of my career! Let’s talk about this new album. Why this name? Do you consider that the world is wrapped in a total chaos with so many wars and problems? WOLF: Are you watching the news? Are you aware of what happens? But – out of chaos something great can come…not everything is lost. I believe in mankind! And no matter what – keep your face o the sun and you don’t see the shadows … How was the process of edition and recording? WOLF: We have the same formula since 40 years and nothing will ever change that. You know what you get, when you buy an ACCEPT Album… However, we
are very eager to make sure, that we remain the same – but do our best to be better this time than the last.
How made the incredible artwork? What represent it? Wolf: GYLUA HAVANCSAK from Hungary. Very talented guy … it shows a chaotic place …. This album constitutes the debut of Christopher Williams (drums) and Uwe Lulis (guitar). This changes the sound of the band? How your fans received these two new members? WOLF: No, they did not change the sound – as I said ACCEPT songwriting and sound has a 40 year history …. And will never change. Fans worldwide are very happy with the 2 new guys. A few months ago you released the package “Restless And Live”, a film of your participation in Bang Your Head!!! Festival. Why you decided to record this concert? WOLF: We just loved it there – and filming is always quite an undertaking. It was time to do it with the new guys. We have been very excited to have them on board. How do you remember that show? WOLF: I guess you see that clearly on the DVD How was the reaction of the public? You can see that as well …very, very enthusiastic! Also, a few days ago you played a show with the Czech National Symphony Orchestra. Why you decided do make this show? How was the reaction of the public?
WOLF: Absolutely fantastic – the best show of my career – everybody was in heaven … A few months ago the rock´s world lost two big stars. Chriss Cornell (Soundgarden, Audioslave) and Chester Benningtom (Linkin Park). What do you think about this? Is the dead, sometimes, the solution to the problems? WOLF: it is sad, especially for their fans. DEATH as a solution is a very personal choice and I am not privileged to voice an opinion about that. What we can wait of Accept for this year and the next? Future plans? Can we see you here in Cuba sometime? WOLF: We would love to come to CUBA any time… September 7th, 2017 our world tour stars in L.A. Well boys, this is all! Thanks for this INCREDIBLE and UNFORGETTABLE OPPORTUNITY! Before to finish, something that you want to say to the Cuban public? WOLF: Thanks for having me and hope to see you all one day!

Directly from Italy arrives Silverbones to talk about their beginning, their most recently CD “Wild Waves” and other things. The interview was answered by Ricardo (guitar). By: Alejandro Pérez. Hey boys! How are you? How is the rock´s scene in Italy? Hi! Everything's ok, thanks! Actually we're having a little break due to Marco's recent decision to leave the band. We'll renew the lineup and be back in action to play living the forthcoming second album. Let´s begin. Where and when arises the band? Who are their actually members? All the members are from Italy? Silverbones band was born in Conegliano city, here in north Italy, around January 2013 by Andrea Franceschi, bassist and main composer. Besides him there is Enrico Santin at drums and me, Ricardo Galante at guitar. As I said previously Marco, our ex singer and guitarist left the band for personal reasons so we're looking for new members to share this journey with. Which are the main influences of the band? Our main influences come from Running Wild, of course! We're also inspired by legendary bands from the 80's like Grave Digger, Judas Priest, Manowar, and Iron Maiden. How you will define your music?
Our music can be described in two essential words: Heavy Metal! Nothing more, nothing less. Let´s focus in your most recently work “Wild Waves”. By the way, is a great CD, I liked it so much! How was the process of edition and recording? Thanks for the appreciation. Usually the one who writes all music and lyrics is Andrea. There after we play the songs together and make some improvements where needed. When everything is in the right place and them all sound good, then it's time to go to the hideout (our home studio) and press the record button. How many songs bring the CD? Any official video? Wild Waves has 9 tracks, most of them centered on the theme of the golden age of piracy. Just like the song titled "Riders Of The New World" of which we also made a videoclip, you can find it in our channel on Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UF6Ejkq0xkU How the people and the specialized press received this CD? “Wild Waves” still receives good responses both people and specialized press, some reviews give us few constructive criticisms. They also said that, while the influences are obviously clear, Wild Waves isn't just a mere copy and it's in some way original, we're proud of it! Where the people can get this work? Everyone can purchase it, along with our merchandise, on our Bandcamp page: https://silverbones.bandcamp.com/ It comes in digital form, CD's and limited vinyl copies. Do you feel happy with this CD? We're really happy, this is our first album and it still gives us a lot of satisfaction, especially when people who really appreciate this kind of music support our efforts and incite us to keep on doing it. In 2015 you played an amazing show titled “Raides in the East Tour”, allow to you the opportunity to play in Czech Republic, Poland and Slovakia. What you can tell us about this tour? The tour has been an adventure! We met lots of awesome people who really like our music and we have traveled across wonderful countries. It ain't easy but we're looking forward to make another tour like that! In which other countries you played it? We didn't actually have the chance to do another proper tour, but last year we were invited in Cyprus, at “Power Of The Night” festival. We had a great time;
all the bands (especially Grave Digger) were really cool! We'd like to salute and thank Rust-X band again for that chance.
How was the reaction of the public? They warmly welcomed us; everybody has made us feel right at home! How do you feel it once the show finished? When the show ends it is always appreciated, therefore we feel pretty good. “Wild Waves� was released in June 2016, a year ago. Do you have new songs to make a new CD? What we can wait of Silverbones for this year? Yes of course, we're actually working on new tracks for the second album. There will definitely be more power and speed than Wild Waves, that's all we can tell for now.
Last question. You´re from Italy. So, do you have had the opportunity to play some time with Lacuna Coil? No, we never played any gig with Lacuna Coil yet. We're talking about an internationally know band, they play plenty of gigs in and outside Italy. I think it's difficult for a band like Silverbones, which performs from only few years, to play with them without pay any slot. But this opportunity may come in the next future, who knows. Well boys, this is all! Thanks for this opportunity and I wish good luck and the best! Something that you want to say to the Cuban an Italic public? Thanks to you, it was a pleasure!

NEW VIDEO RELEASED
We bring you the Official Video to “The Eagle Flies Alone”, the second track off our upcoming album “Will To Power”! Michael Amott comments: "Strangely enough, this is a song I wrote in sunny Mexico last year, but fear not - Arch Enemy hasn't gone Mariachi on you! On the contrary, this song is steeped in classic Metal and melancholic Scandinavian atmosphere. Lyrically, this is an anthemic warcry to all fellow individualists around the Heavy Metal world. We shot the video with our director Patric Ullaeus in Sweden on the coldest outdoor shoot I can recall ever doing! The end result was totally worth it, it turned out beautifully. I guess sometimes you really have to suffer for the art!" Go here to watch the video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mjF1rmSV1dM Go grab the track and http://willtopower.centurymedia.com/
