Extol came into existence in the early 90´s during a period of time when heavy metal was commercially dead.  Parallel to the emerging Norwegian underground black metal scene, and in a time when hard music was characterized by nu metal and post grunge, Extol insisted to pursue the dream of bringing death metal back to the alternative musical landscape. Extol knew the genre was in desperate need for change. The oppressive correctness, a lack of melodic freedom and a feeling of stagnation in the rhythmic patterns in metal, provoked Extols first full length album;“Burial” (1998).

With this album the band challenged the genres traditional structures and it bears the stamp of irreverent approach to tonality, harmonies and atmosphere, more common for bands from the 70´s. This was the starting point for Extols creativity and laid the foundation for their coming albums; “Undeceived” (2000), “Synergy” (2003) and the Norwegian Grammy nominated “The Blueprint Dives” (2005), supported by extensive world wide touring with bands such as Mastodon and Opeth.

Extols new self titled album is like a complex metallic alloy. The playfulness of the songs and the brutal bonding of genres are transformed into a fusion of atmospheric and harmonic prog rock, merged with the tempered thrash and death metal that Extol so uniquely master. This album leads us straight to the core of Extol.

Drummer David Husvik comments: “”Extol” is the album that was planned all the way, but never materialized. Partly due to changes in the line up, but also because of the band´s urge to always reach for something new. The album is the recap of 20 years of Extol-history, both musically and lyrically.“

With a long awaited creative collaboration with Jens Bogren (Opeth, Paradise Lost, Enslaved) and some truly magnificent artwork by Travis Smith (Katatonia, Opeth, Death), Extol has managed to create a timeless masterpiece and the vision of the band seems clearer than ever.

Extol Announce Fill-In Vocalist For 2023 ‘Furnace Fest’ Show

Extol have confirmed their touring lineup for their upcoming live return in the United States. This past week saw the group announced for the 2023 edition of the ‘ Furnace Fest ‘, marking the first stateside show from the Christian progressive metal band in roughly 18 years.

While former guitarist/bassist Tor Magne Glidje and guitarist Christer Espevoll will be back in the fold for that performance, vocalist Peter Espevoll won’t be present. Elisha Mullins ( Fleshkiller , The Burial , etc.) has instead been tapped to fill-in behind the mic.

A statement issued by the band earlier today (January 22nd) reads as follows:

“As some of you may have noticed, we’re playing Furnace Fest 2023. We are excited to finally return to the US after all these years! The last Extol show over the pond was in 2005 on the Blueprint tour. Times change and so does the line up. This is the 2023 Extol live edition: David Husvik Christer Espevoll Ole Børud Tor Magne Glidje Elisha Mullins As you can see, Peter is not part of the line up. We obviously wanted him on board! Though very unfortunate, Peter has other priorities and obligations, and we fully respect it. That being said, we’re happy to welcome Elisha Mullins ( Fleshkiller ) from the extended Extol famliy as our live vocalist. See you in Alabama in September!”

This year’s ‘ Furnace Fest ‘ will be held at the Sloss Furnaces in Birmingham, AL from September 23rd to 25th.

Oasis Announces Reunion Tour After 15 Years of Brotherly War

Liam and Noel Gallagher’s 1990s Britpop band will play dates in Britain and Ireland in 2025.

Two men, with long brown hair and sunglasses, sit in front of a black table with microphones pointed toward them. Behind them, a backdrop has "Oasis" printed on it.

By Ben Sisario

In the list of rock bands considered least likely to bury their hatchets long enough to successfully reunite, the British group Oasis has always been near the very top.

At its peak in the 1990s, Oasis — led by the brothers Liam and Noel Gallagher — exemplified the soaring appeal of Britpop, with anthemic hits like “Wonderwall,” “Live Forever” and “Champagne Supernova” that could produce mass singalongs in any pub or arena. In 1994, the group’s debut, “Definitely Maybe,” rocketed to the top of the British pop chart and became a zeitgeist-defining moment for a new wave of English rock.

But the band kept crashing down to earth, largely through the fisticuffs — verbal and physical — of the Gallagher brothers. In 1995, a 14-minute unofficial CD was released of Noel and Liam getting sidetracked during a journalist’s interview to bicker with each other, loudly and ruthlessly if not quite comprehensibly.

The band split up in 2009 — “I simply could not go on working with Liam a day longer,” Noel said at the time — and over the years the Gallaghers have continued to lob public insults at each other.

Now they seem to have reconciled sufficiently to announce a comeback tour in summer 2025, which is to include shows throughout Britain and Ireland, including at least four nights at Wembley Stadium in London. The band announced the tour on its website . In a statement, the band said plans were underway for dates on “other continents outside of Europe later next year.”

“The great wait is over,” the statement added: “Come see.”

The announcement was no surprise. Over the weekend, Oasis posted Tuesday’s date on its website and social media accounts, after days of gossip on social media and detailed reporting from anonymous “industry insiders” in the British news media about an imminent tour announcement. Liam Gallagher himself boosted those rumors. When one fan said he was “scared” about the news to come, Liam answered, “Your scared how do you think I feel.” Streams of the band’s catalog spiked in anticipation .

Tickets for the shows go on sale Aug. 31.

In Britain, Oasis was a phenomenon, selling tens of millions of albums and racking up six Brit Awards, and the Gallagher brothers’ antics guaranteed constant coverage in the news media. But the band never scaled the same heights in the United States. Perhaps that was a result of its quintessential Englishness. More likely, it was self-inflicted: In 1994, when the American rock press was buzzing about Oasis, it put on a notoriously debauched performance in Los Angeles and Noel abandoned the group for a few days.

Oasis has never won a Grammy Award. This year it was nominated for the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame for the first time but was not inducted .

Since Oasis broke up, Noel has released four albums with his group Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds. Liam has released two with his group Beady Eye, three solo albums and one with John Squire of the Stone Roses.

One question left unanswered: Who will play in the band besides the Gallagher brothers? The announcement made no mention, and a spokeswoman for the group did not respond to a question about the lineup.

This week, Oasis is set to release a 30th-anniversary edition of its debut album, “Definitely Maybe,” including early tracks that the band had long considered lost .

Noel and Liam Gallagher have put their long-running feud behind them, as a huge Oasis tour has been announced for 2025 .

The storied rock band will play stadium shows in Manchester, London, Edinburgh and Dublin, with gigs outside Europe to be added at a later date.

Their reunion announcement comes right before the 30-year anniversary of Definitely Maybe , the band’s record-breaking debut album. Next year, meanwhile, will mark the 30th anniversary of their follow-up, (What’s the Story) Morning Glory?, one of the biggest-selling LPs by a British act of all time.

A statement from the band said: “The guns have fallen silent. The stars have aligned. The great wait is over. Come see. It will not be televised.”

“Oasis today end years of feverish speculation with the confirmation of a long awaited run of UK and Ireland shows forming the domestic leg of their OASIS LIVE 25 world tour,” a press release about the reunion said.

Oasis announce three new UK tour dates after ‘unprecedented demand’

“Oasis will hit Cardiff, Manchester, London, Edinburgh and Dublin in the summer of 2025. Their only shows in Europe next year, this will be one of the biggest live moments and hottest tickets of the decade.

“The Oasis live experience is unlike anything else. The roar that greets them as they step on stage. A set full of wall-to-wall classics. The spine-tingling sensation of being in a crowd singing back every word. And especially the charisma, spark and intensity that only comes when Liam and Noel Gallagher are on-stage together.”

Supersonic: where will the money be made on Oasis reunion tour?

Band’s shows next summer expected to be most popular tour in British history – and a solid gold financial hit

  • Business live – latest updates

T he Oasis reunion is expected to be the most popular tour in British history, a solid gold financial hit for the band, managers, ticket sellers and stadium operators, as well as an economic phenomenon worth hundreds of millions for businesses cashing in on super-fans .

The news that Liam and Noel Gallagher have buried the hatchet – or at least put their differences aside for the sake of a reported £50m payday – has sparked a nationwide ticket scramble as the cost of living crisis is put to one side for the spectacle of seeing the band reunited after 15 years away.

Fans are set to make a mass pilgrimage next summer. Dates have been set for shows in Cardiff, Manchester, London, Edinburgh and Dublin, as Oasis look to follow in the money-spinning footsteps of recent mega tours by Taylor Swift and Beyoncé.

“The idea of big-concept live music tours having a massive economic impact on local economies is the new normal,” said Mark Mulligan, the head of music analysis and founder at Midia Research. “Superstar acts today like Beyoncé and Taylor Swift have turned tours into cultural events in their own right. Now it’s the turn of Oasis .”

When Beyoncé took her world tour to Sweden, prices in its capital, Stockholm, rocketed. Michael Grahn, the chief economist at Danske Bank, called the phenomenon the “Beyoncé blip” as it increased the country’s inflation rate in the month she played two gigs.

Similarly in the UK, fans desperate to catch Taylor Swift’s Eras tour booked out hotels and sparked a debate over whether the shows had pushed up the UK inflation rate .

Members of the public have already turned to the social media platform X to complain about hotels in Dublin and Manchester cancelling existing bookings that clash with concert dates and reposting the rooms at an exorbitant price increase. One user claimed Dublin hotels were reposting rooms at three times the original price, while another posted a map claiming to show prices before and after the tour was announced.

Sacha Lord, Greater Manchester’s night-time economy adviser, urged the Maldron hotel chain to “do the right thing” after receiving complaints.

Hey @MaldronHotels . I'm being contacted by several people who booked your hotel for the Oasis concert, to say their rooms have just been cancelled and are now back up for three times the price. I'm sure this is a "computer error"... easy to correct. Do the right thing. — Sacha Lord (@Sacha_Lord) August 27, 2024

The chain, which has two hotels in Manchester , said that the cancellations were due to a “technical error” with too many bookings taken for the nights of the Oasis gigs.

“As a result, we are unable to honour all bookings made on these dates,” the company said. “We are actively engaging with customers regarding their bookings. This is not an attempt to resell rooms at inflated prices.”

Premier Inn, the UK’s biggest hotel chain, only has rooms available at Manchester airport on the nights of the Oasis concerts. Travelodge only has rooms 5 miles from the concert venue, Heaton Park, at twice the typical price of dates when the band are not playing.

Andy Burnham, the mayor of Greater Manchester, has been quick to spy the commercial and cultural opportunity the band’s return to the live stage will bring.

“Oasis reforming is great news for the city region and another massive opportunity for the eyes of the world to be back on Greater Manchester,” he said. “Greater Manchester is in a different moment now with a thriving economy, and Oasis returning and playing these shows in their home city will only boost this.

“We saw this cultural boom in the 1980s and 1990s … Greater Manchester often has a tendency to talk about its past glories. I think this is a fantastic opportunity for a new generation of Greater Mancunians.”

While the band members are set to enjoy a hefty payday from the reunion, so too will a group of promoters and ticket sellers driving the commercial side of the tour.

Manchester-based SJM, one of the largest concert promoters in the UK, founded by the owner of the Warrington Wolves rugby league club, Simon Moran, has partnered with fellow promoters MCD Productions and DF Concerts for the shows.

SJM – which puts on more than 2,000 concerts a year – is likely to see a significant boost to its revenues. Its most recently available accounts filed at Companies House show the business made a pre-tax profit of £17.7m on £275m in revenues in 2022.

after newsletter promotion

MCD has revealed that 80,000 tickets for the Oasis performance at Croke Park in Dublin will go on sale this weekend starting at €86.50 (£73) plus a booking fee.

However, the biggest winner is likely to be Live Nation, the US giant that owns Ticketmaster and hundreds of venues globally, which has seen its business boom thanks to pent-up demand for live music after the Covid lockdowns.

The company, which is dealing with the continuing fallout of a cyber-attack in June when hackers accessed the personal data of potentially hundreds of millions of Ticketmaster customers, reported a 36% increase in revenues last year to $22.7bn (£17.2bn). Live Nation’s global revenues have doubled since 2019.

Alice Enders, the director of research at Enders Analysis, said: “The mega-trend in consumer music spend is not recorded streaming services but the experience of live music, which super-fan clusters especially will pay a lot for .

“Oasis have been completely off both the recorded music and live music scenes, and reforming will drive ticket sales as well as streaming of their songs.”

Signs are that Oasis are attracting not just a renewed wave of interest from existing older fans but a new wave of generation Z music lovers who are embracing the band.

Spotify has seen a 690% increase in the number of daily streams globally of Oasis songs since the reunion tour announcement, compared with average streaming levels.

Other businesses that may be hoping to benefit from a halo effect include the clothing brand Pretty Green, which was founded by Liam Gallagher in 2009 but is now owned by Mike Ashley’s Frasers Group , and merchandise sellers.

Birmingham City University has speculated that the 14-date UK tour could bring in £400m in ticket sales and add-ons alone. However, Enders is sceptical of such lofty projections on the basis that the initial tour is too small – unless fans are gouged on price. “Fourteen dates in the UK does not make a whale,” she said. “Unless the prices of tickets are higher than average [£100 plus booking fee], which would be dissuading to fans.”

The most lucrative world concert tour to date is estimated to be Swift’s Eras tour, which has grossed more than $1bn from 60 shows, followed by Coldplay, who made $945m over 153 shows between 2022 and 2024. Elton John, a perennial tourer, made $939m from 330 shows in his farewell extravaganza that ran from 2018 to 2023.

However, there is longer-term potential for Oasis to join the ranks of mega-earning tourers. There are plans to take the show international after the initial dates next year – if the Gallagher brothers can keep their long history of imploding on the back burner, that is.

Oasis Live 25: Band reuniting but do they dare play Stone Pony in Asbury Park again?

Portrait of Chris Jordan

Britpop rockers Oasis have announced a reunion after 15 years apart — but are they ready to return to the Stone Pony in Asbury Park?

The band's show in March of 1995 at the Pony is noted as one of the most infamous in city music history.

“Somebody threw a plastic beer bottle and it hit (lead singer Liam Gallagher) on the head during the first song,” said Peter Mantas, now the entertainment director for the Break and Low Dive venues across the street from the Pony. “The roadie got on the mic and said if anything else is thrown the show's over.”

The concert was the first of the band's 1995 U.S. tour after the release of the breakthrough  album “Definitely Maybe.” A reporter from Rolling Stone was at the show.

“Tonight, in front of a capacity audience at New Jersey's legendary Stone Pony, in Asbury Park, they aren't exactly getting star treatment,” states the article. “Before the band starts playing, a sodden cry rises up from the back of the sold-out room: “(Blank) Great Britain! England sucks! USA!” Then after just a single song, Oasis are rudely interrupted by a beer can.”

Need a break? Play the USA TODAY Daily Crossword Puzzle.

Oasis soldiered on at the Pony and were soon playing arenas and amphitheaters as they became one of the biggest bands of the '90s. 

The band, fronted by brothers Noel and Liam Gallagher, have announced a series of reunion concerts in the United Kingdom next year with no U.S. dates currently planned.

“The guns have fallen silent. The stars have aligned. The great wait is over. Come see. It will not be televised,” the band said in a statement on its socials and website.

"The only way to see the band perform will be on their 'Oasis Live '25' World Tour," it said in a statement posted to social media .

Oasis hasn't performed together in 15 years

Fans started getting excited about a possible reunion of the famed British band after seeing a cryptic Instagram post on the group's official page as well as comments on X by band member Liam Gallagher.

The chart-topping band led by the frequently feuding Gallagher brothers had been broken up since August 2009, when Noel Gallagher, 57, announced he quit Oasis following a show at a festival in Paris. Multiple reports at the time said the brothers had a brawl backstage before the show.

Fans had been hopeful the siblings had patched things up and anticipated the reunion announcement. The Oasis Instagram account shared a graphic on Aug. 25 with the date Aug. 27, 2024, and the time of 8 a.m. The Instagram accounts for Liam and Noel Gallagher also posted the graphic.

Breathless fans responded on Instagram.

"Please don’t play with my heart," one wrote.

"It’s happening," another posted with eyes and fire emoji.

Even celebrities chimed in on social media, with British musician James Blunt posting a photo of himself with Noel Gallagher and writing, "IT’S ON — The reunion the world has been waiting for…"

Liam Gallagher, 51, spent Aug. 25 replying to fans and critics on X after reunion rumors initially began swirling earlier in the weekend.

"I never did like that word FORMER," he posted .

Liam Gallagher also replied to a fan asking when dates for a reunion tour would be released.

"Nxt Friday," he wrote .

A report by London's The Times cited industry insiders saying the band will play a series of shows in the summer of 2025 at Heaton Park in Manchester and Wembley Stadium in London. Liam Gallagher responded to a post on X about the report.

"See you down the front," he wrote .

Noel Gallagher performs in 2016.

Liam Gallagher also played a solo show at the Reading Festival in England on Aug. 25, where he dedicated the song "Half the World Away" to Noel Gallagher, according to the BBC .

The cryptic hints came nearly 30 years to the day after Oasis burst into stardom with the release of its debut album, "Definitely Maybe," which was the fastest-selling debut album in British history at that point.

Oasis followed that with "(What's the Story) Morning Glory?" in 1995, another multiplatinum album that includes the classic "Wonderwall."

The brothers have each pursued solo work in the 15 years since Oasis called it quits.

The iconic multi-platinum-selling group America will celebrate their 54 th anniversary with a series of tour dates in 2024. Known for their timeless magic and powerful performances, the Grammy Award-winning perennial classic-rock favorite will draw on their deep catalog of hits including signature song “A Horse With No Name,” a Number One hit on Billboard’s Hot 100 in 1972.

On their way to becoming a global household name, America’s journey found them exploring a wide variety of musical terrain. Their best-known tunes, which also include “I Need You,” “Ventura Highway,” “Don’t Cross The River,” “Tin Man,” “Lonely People,” and “Sister Golden Hair” were cornerstones of 1970’s Top 40 and FM rock radio. Yet beyond their impressive catalog of hits, listeners would discover there was always much more to America than surface perceptions. The combination of melodic pop rock and folk-jazz elements, slinky Latin-leaning rhythms and impressionistic lyric imagery contrasted well with other more traditional country-rock leanings and highly personal lyrics.

America’s albums–six certified gold and/or platinum, with their first greatest hits collection, History, hitting four plus million in sales–displayed a fuller range of the trio’s talents than did their singles. Their material encompassed an ambitious artistic swath; from effects-laden rockers to oddball medleys to soul-bearing ballads, America displayed a flawless blend of disparate genres and styles as wide-open as the great American plains.

From their formative years, America has been a band capable of transcending borders with its uplifting music and positive message. Embracing a rainbow of divergent cultures, America’s audiences continue to grow, comprising a loyal legion of first, second and third generation fans, all bearing testament to the group’s enduring appeal.

VIP PACKAGE INCLUDES:

  • One (1) Premium Reserved Seat
  • Meet & Greet with Dewey Bunnell
  • Individual Photo Opportunity with Dewey Bunnell
  • One (1) AMERICA T- Shirt
  • One (1) Commemorative VIP Laminate, Signed by Dewey Bunnell
