The folks at Germany’s Avant-Rock source Exile On Mainstream Records are thrilled to report that the final master for Heavy Kingdom, the anticipated collaborative album by WINO and CONNY OCHS has arrived at label headquarters, and the final details on the album’s release are being finalized.

The legacy of Scott “Wino” Weinrich in the world of heavy music is indisputable and ever evolving, and here he teams up with Conny Ochs, a songwriter so pure and honest in his output that he seems to be the perfect partner for the straightforward Weinrich. The two met for the first time in 2010 when Conny was supporting Wino on his acoustic solo tour promoting his acclaimed solo album, Adrift.

Through music they discovered a very similar approach to life and art, and a shared wisdom in creating music. It really seemed like two souls becoming one after they got to know each other. Together the two wrote, performed and recorded an incredible set of soulful tunes that speak for themselves, as well as a Townes Van Zandt cover. The artwork contains drawings by both Weinrich and Ochs, and follows the dedicated and deeply personal approach of the whole album. View the cover art for Heavy Kingdom here.

Heavy Kingdom Track Listing:

Somewhere Nowhere

Heavy Kingdom

Dust

Vultures By The Vines

Dark Ravine

Traces Of Blood

Heavy Kingdom Jam

Highway Kind

Dead Yesterday

Here Comes The Siren

Labour Of Love

Heavy Kingdom will be released throughout Europe on January 27th, 2012 and in North America sometime in March, a final release date to be confirmed in the weeks ahead. Stay tuned for tracks from the record to be released in the near future, as well as the details on a month-long European tour being finalized for March and April.

Posted in doom metal, Hard Rock, Heavy Metal, metal music, metal odyssey, Music, rock music, rock music news, stoner metal with tags , , , , , , , , , , on July 26, 2011 by Metal Odyssey

PREMONITION 13 – Some, if few, Rock Music legends have redefined the word perseverance and combined it with greatness. Guitarist, vocalist and songwriter Scott “Wino” Weinrich is one of those select few. An underground Heavy Music, Stoner and Doom Metal icon for decades, (The Obsessed, St. Vitus, Spirit Caravan), Wino is on a mission to spread his musical message among both lifelong fans and throngs of new disciples in 2011. Wino’s newest project and debut/self-titled album – Premonition 13, is being released today, July 26th, on Volcom Entertainment.

There are scores of new album releases each week, only there are few creme’ de la creme’s such as Premonition 13 to choose from. Don’t pass up a golden Metal opportunity, to purchase a Heavy Music album of substance, such as Premonition 13. You must hear Wino, a living legend of Heavy Rock Music, a pioneer of Doom Metal, performing at one of his finest hours yet.

Let your ears absorb such molasses heavy tracks as Modern Man and Peyote Road and then become aware, of how a project as Premonition 13 will one day be deemed a classic. Each song on Premonition 13 carries it’s own weight in Heavy Music integrity. Could any less be expected from an album that Wino touches? This is an album that’s absolute in it’s credible message of: strong songwriting combined with an all encompassing heaviness can both inspire and blow your mind away. Premonition 13 is an album that will surely compete mightily, for it’s rightful place on Metal Odyssey’s Best Of lists for 2011.

* Background info on Premonition 13: Wino pairs up with an old friend from The Obsessed days – Jim Karow. The two bonded over jam sessions and discussions on Mesoamerican culture and magnetism. Speaking of magnets, this album makes heavy use of the E-Bow (a handheld guitar effect that uses an electromagnet field to sustain notes).

PREMONITION 13 – Track Listing:

B.E.A.U.T.Y.

Hard To Say

Clay Pigeons

Senses

La Hechicera De La Jeringa (Prelude)
