X-DRIVE Go to the Rathole for a detailed description! Get Your Rock On
X-Drive is one of the most exciting hard rock projects to emerge from Los Angeles in a long time. The debut CD, 'Get Your Rock On' is a stellar collection of 12 tracks that will have your head and heart reeling and your finger reaching for the replay button. Virtually unknown guitarist Jeremy Brunner is the founder of the band, and the Oregon transplant makes an impressive showing with an affinity for catchy riffs, insightful lyrics and huge choruses. Some of the best in Los Angeles have joined him including bassist James Lomenzo (Black Label Society, Megadeth, White Lion), singer Keith St. John (Montrose, Burning Rain) and to round out the project, hard-hitting drummer Fred Fischer (Midline). Legendary producer Andy Johns, the former Led Zeppelin engineer, finished the XDrive tracks just before his tragic and untimely death in 2013. 'Get Your Rock On' was mixed by Wyn Davis (Black Sabbath, Dio, Whitesnake, Dokken).

X-ORIGIN   State Of Art
When a new band releases ist debut in the same month in which WORK OF ART and Toby Hitchcock release two real gems, it creates the risk that it passes unnoticed. I don’t hope so, because X-ORIGIN’s “State Of The Art” is a very solid album that I highly recommend to the fans of Ted Poley’s solo efforts “Collateral Damage” and “Smile”. Singer Johannes Stole sounds similar to the DANGER DANGER-frontman and songs like “Can’t Keep Running”, “Crying For You”, “This Is It” or “What Love Is All About” could have easily appeared on one of his records. A good one! MARCO SPÄTH

X-WILD Go to the Rathole for a detailed description! Savageland
In the year 1993 three ex-members of the world-famous German Metal band Running Wild decided to form a new band called X-Wild. After searching for a fitting singer, they found Frank Knight from Manchester / England. They were meeting several times for song writing in Rendsburg in the North of Germany, before they entered the studio to record their first album called "So What!" The recordings took place in the famous Studio M in Machtsum near Hildesheim in Germany in late 1993. In this studio were also recorded the two most successful Running Wild albums "Death Or Glory" and "Blazon Stone". It was even engineered and mixed by the same man: Jan Nemec. Never change a winning team! After the success of their debut album they entered the studio again in 1995 to record their second album called "Monster Effect". It was again in Studio M which in the meantime had changed to Celle / Germany. The recordings were made with the same people involved like on the first record. After the release of "Monster Effect" the band went on a European Tour as special guest of German band Grave Digger to promote the album. Following the success of the first two albums, the band recorded and released their third and what was meant to be, their final album "Savageland" in 1996, which is now thankfully available again.

  Go to the Rathole for a detailed description! SO WHAT !
Re-release of the first X-Wild album. In 1993, three ex-members of the German metal band Running Wild, Axel Morgan (guitar), Jens Becker (Grave Digger, bass), Stefan Schwarzmann (ex- UDO, ex-Accept, drums), decided to form a new band called X-Wild. In search of a singer they found Frank Knight from Manchester / England. Frank Knight''''s range places him somewhere between Kasparek and Dirkschneider... He uses many of Udo''''s rock & roll tricks, but has a different pitch and rarely raises the siren. Pretty dirty, with a biting street feeling. Their first album is pure German Power Metal, with some liberties towards Hard Rock, similar to Accept, Grave Digger and Running Wild. The recordings took place in November/December 1993 in the famous Studio M near Hildesheim in Germany. This studio also recorded the two most successful Running Wild albums "Death Or Glory" and "Blazon Stone". It was even produced by the same man: Jan Nemec. So What! is a straightforward shooter in terms of its production values, which is probably due to the backgrounds of the individual members on other albums of Accept, Running Wild and Grave Digger. It sounds good at all volumes, and the musicality and riffing show the band''''s skill. A blast from the past! 1. Can''''t Tame The Wild 2. Dealing with The Devil 3. Scarred To The Bone 4. Wild Frontier 5. Skybolter 6. Beastmaster 7. Kid Racer 8. Into The Light 9. Freeway Devils 10. Mystica Deamonica 11. Thousand Guns 12. Different

X-WORLD 5   New Universal Order
X-World/5 is a new band hailing from Sweden and can be considered to be a supergroup of well known heavy and power metal names. It features bassist Magnus Rosen (Ex-Hammerfall), Nils K. Rue (Pagan’s Mind) on vocals, guitarists Andy LaRocque (King Diamond) and Reeves Gabrels (David Bowie) and Big Swede on Drums, loops and samples. Quite a diverse group of artists if you ask me, but they’ve all come together on X-World/5’s debut album “New Universal Order”.

    Kin
After releasing their debut LP Shattered Existence (1989) and the follow-up For Whose Advantage (1990), Xentrix gained a well deserved status of British thrash heroes. The popularity of the band was followed by some intensive touring, next to groups such as Skyclad and Sepultura. Then it all came tumbling down, as the U.K. thrash scene became more and more neglected by the fans and nearly collapsed in 1993. But Xentrix refused to simply step down and surrender their career. Instead they made their most successful effort yet by releasing their third and most intensive album, Kin. limited edition of 2000 hand numbered copies. Running Time: 53 mins Track Listing: The Order Of Chaos, A Friend to you, All Bleed Red, No more time, Waiting, Come Tomorrow, Release, See Through You, Another Day, Bonus tracks: Reward, Never Be, The Hand That Feeds Itself , Silence

    Shattered Existence
Xentrix were one of the leading exponenets of UK thrash and Shattered Existence is their debut album, originally released in 1989. The album, "Shattered Existence", was recorded and mixed in nippy 14 days with the producer John Cuniberti bringing the best out of both the band and their material. Of the newer tracks, the likes of "Position of Security", "Crimes" and "Balance Of Power" proved that Xentrix could stand up against anything else the U.K. thrash scene had to offer. While "No Compromise", "Dark Enemy" and "Back In The Real World" show that you can play fast and in a controlled manner at the same time. Limited edition of 2000 hand-numbered copies. Running Time: 55 mins Track Listing: No Compromise, Balance Of Power, Crimes, Back In The Real World, Dark Enemy, Bad Blood, Reasons For Destruction, Position Of Security, Heaven Cent, Bonus tracks: Ghostbusters, Nobody's Perfect, Interrogate

XYSTUS   Equilibrio
XYSTUS is a Dutch progressive metal band formed in 1999 by drummer IVO VAN DIJK and guitarist/vocalist BAS DOLMANS. They enlisted bassist MARK BREKELMANS and second guitarist BOB WITSMA. Through the course of releasing two albums – 2004’s “Receiving Tomorrow” and 2006’s “Surreal” – the band built up a buzz and fanbase in The Netherlands. The band supported KAMELOT and made numerous festival appearances. In December 2005, XYSTUS went on a European tour in support of EPICA. The band had even greater ambitions and in 2006 they contacted the UTRECHTSCH STUDENTEN CONCERT – the oldest symphony orchestra in The Netherlands. The resulting two year collaboration resulted in the rock opera “Equilibrio.” Conceived as both an actual stage production and studio recording, “Equilibrio” was performed to four sold out audiences in July, 2008 – over 4,000 people witnessed the opera. SENSORY is proud to release the studio recording of “Equilibrio,” which features key scenes from the opera. In addition to the 60 piece US Concert orchestra and 30 member choir, XYSTUS enlisted vocal performances from SIMONE SIMONS (EPICA), GEORGE OSTHOEK ORPHANAGE, DELAIN) and Dutch theater veterans MICHELLE SPLIETELHOF and JOHN VOOIJS. The story of “Equilibrio” revolves around a wanderer named DIEGU (Bas Dolmans) who fi nds himself caught between the forces of good and evil - the power mad ruler PRIMOS (John Vooijs) and the altruistic rebel AVELIN (Michelle Splietelhof). Primos makes a pact with DEATH (George Osthoek) to take over the world. After unsuccessful efforts by Diegu to mediate between Avelin and Primos, the latter ends up with complete power and the world is thrown out of balance. Diegu is summoned by the godess LADY SOPHIA (Simone Simons). She watches over Earth and entrusts Diegu with the job of reuniting Primos and Avelin in order to restore the balance between good and evil again.
