The Murdered revitalize Atlanta hardcore scene The Murdered, a five-piece hardcore band from Atlanta, might be the youngest band appearing at the Tribunal Records showcase. They range in age from 19 to 22, and Flying Anvil booker Andrew Dudek is having a hell of a time sorting out the members who are of drinking age from the young 'uns. The Murdered have done pretty well for themselves. Earlier this year, on June 6, they released their album And the Maggots Shall Inherit the Earth on Tribunal Records. The band formed two years ago from the dissolution of several Atlanta-area metal and hardcore bands, said guitarist Ryan Shea. The band received its members from the groups Shut the Fuck Up and Listen, Style Over Substance and Starsfade. "We just came up here for this show," Shea said. "We played one down in Atlanta last night." The Murdered play textbook hardcore that borrows metal's imagery of crushing violence. ZAKK WYLDE - Born To Be Zakk Wylde Zakk Wylde - Ozzy Osborne's long serving, straight-talking guitar demon (since the age of 19) earlier this year finished doing double duty gigs, headlining this year's Ozzfest in the US with Ozzy and the second stage with his own band, Black Label Society. Wylde epitomises the hard work ethic and dedication to his craft that has made him a guitar hero amongst serious players around the world. Currently laying down tracks for the next Ozzy album, he is also unleashing a new Black Label Society album, Shot To Hell, and DVD, European Invasion: Doomtroopin'. . Norman Granz' Jazz In Montreux Presents: Joe Pass '75 It's not often you get a second chance in life, but the late guitarist Joe Pass was one of the fortunate few. After starting out playing in big bands like Charlie Barnet's in the 1940s, Pass' drug addiction and resulting jail sentence kept him off the scene for a decade until 1962, when he returned with a series of recordings for Pacific Jazz. For Django (Pacific Jazz, 1964) was especially momentous, and Pass began to receive greater recognition as an innovative mainstream guitarist whose clear roots in Charlie Christian brought a fresh perspective to music associated with the legendary Django Reinhardt. But it wasn't until 1973, when Pass signed up with impresario Norman Granz' Pablo label and released Virtuoso—the first in a series of landmark solo guitar recordings—that he began to garner more widespread acclaim.
