   About Mackenzie King


Formed after its three members recovered their breath from being sacked with a cease-and-desist letter from the power utility bearing the name of their previous band, Ontario Power Generation, Mackenzie King searched high and low for a name that rocked. Just as the band formerly known as OPG waited months before its first gig, Mackenzie King took its time so it could find just the right name. Now, monikered, the band is ready to get down to business and blast some eardrums.


Drawing from classic sounds like Led Zeppelin, early Rush, Yes, Iron Maiden, through bands like Queen and Soundgarden up to contemporary acts like Queens of the Stone Age and the Mars Volta, Mackenzie King is a straight-up power-trio. Emphasizing the strength of their live sound, Mackenzie King finds itself inching away from the math rock which defined the old OPG sound and closer to an aggressive hard rock sound in the vein of Toronto-spawned bands Danko Jones and The Illuminati.


Mackenzie King have just finished work on their first EP, Mackenzie King I.

Hallo zusammen / Hi everybody (for English version, scroll down please ;) ),

"Suicidal Peace" ist beim amerikanischen Label Quickstar nun auf einem Sampler erschienen. Wenn ihr für wenig Geld einen guten Song haben wollt und dabei eine aufstrebende Band unterstützen, dann könnt ihr den Song (0,84 €) und den ganzen Sampler (9,31 €) bei Amazon kaufen:

http://www.amazon.de/gp/product/B002CNGXNG/ref=sr_1_album_314_rd?ie=UTF8&child=B002CNL2PU&qid=1247235802&sr=1-314

(wenn der Link nicht geht, einfach nach "Rock4Life 10" suchen)

Außerdem gibt's den Song auch auf iTunes.com: nach "Suicidal Peace" suchen.

Der ganze Sämpler ist auch bei uns erhältlich, für 6€. Gebt Bescheid wenn ihr einen wollt, dann könnt ihr entweder Bar zahlen oder per Überweisung.

Und nicht vergessen. Morgen, Sa den 11.7. spielen wir letztes Mal dieses Jahr live in Augsburg: 16 Uhr Einlass, 20 Uhr Gig.
Als Rahmenprogramm gibt's Bar, Festzelt, Chill Out Zone mit Hängematten und Pool, nachmittags Vorführungen (Kampfsport-Choreographien und sowas) und abends dann 7 Bands auf 2 Bühnen); alles (außer Pool vermutlich) überdacht. Ort: Gartenanlage Hirblinger Straße (Straba 4 oder 2 bis eine nach Wertachbrücke fahren und dann Richtung Holzweg/Bärenkeller laufen oder mit Linie 21 direkt hinfahren). Name des Festivals: DÜVSTOCK.

Ok, das wars, bis dann, freudigste Grüße

Dear all,

our band's song "Suicidal Peace" was finally released last week - on American label "Quickstar" 's sampler "ROCK4LIFE Volume 10". You can buy the song for 1 € / $ / GBP in www.iTunes.com (just search the song there).

You can also buy the song or the whole sampler for the same price (/per song) on www.amazon.com (or www.amazon.co.uk or whatever). Just search the cd ("Rock4Life 10").

We'd be very happy if you listened to the song. Then buy it and tell your friends to buy it. It's cheap and it's good and you'll help a talented band.

Thanks very much. Cheers

That was a great set at The Boat. Following in the footsteps of that classic rock spirit, this power-trio gives a nod to 70’s nihilism in all it’s air-guitar glory. A brash-chugging sound, loud, raucous guitar bursts that celebrate Black Sabbath and Led Zeppelin, straddling heavy power-chords and tie-dyed psychedelic jams, crossing through bit’s of Soundgarden in between. Really goes to show you that air-punching hard rock still has it’s place.

hey !

To celebrate the US dvd release of Pascal Laugier's highly controversed 'MARTYRS' we are releasing the full score as a FREE DONWLOAD EDITION (320 kbps mp3).




'Adding to this feeling of disquiet is the score by Alex and Willie Cortes. Like most great scores it enhances the scenes and (...)never distracts from the action, and from now on when I hear the main theme from the film, it’s quiet, simpl
istic tones will instantly bring me back to the feelings I experienced during Martyrs. To me this is what a film score should do(...).'

"On a lighter note, I've listened to "Your Witness" by Seppuku Paradigm 27 times in a row tonight. I highly recommend everyone at least go to their myspace page because they fucking rock. I guess this song's off the soundtrack of some French horror movie Martyrs"
" and now I really, really, really wanna see it. BUT I FUCKING CAN'T BECAUSE I'M NOT IN FUCKING FRANCE."
