Saw a thread like this on the Rhapsody forum, thought it would be nice to have one here too.

Let's start with the albums. The following releases are more or less scheduled:

Grave Digger - Ballad of Mary EP (March 4th) [maybe I'll consider their new DVD too]
Symfonia - TBA (March 25th)
Power Quest - Blood Alliance (March 28th)
Avantasia - The Flying Opera (March 2011)
Rammstein - [Greatest Hits] (April 2011)
Rammstein - [Live DVD] (April 2011)
HammerFall - TBA (May 20th)
Rhapsody of Fire - From Chaos To Eternity (spring 2011)
Falconer - Armod (June 3rd)
Alestorm - Back Through Time (summer 2011)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The following don't have a releasedate set yet:

Dragonland - The Return
Nocturnal Rites - TBA
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Maybe I will check the following releases:

Freedom Call - [DVD] (before summer 2011)
Fullforce - TBA (no releasedate yet for like 1,5 years. This waiting made me less exciting and more skeptical)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

That's all for me when it comes to releases so far. If you have any ideas for me, feel free to share them

Of course I'm also looking forward to Wacken this year. I hope to see some fellow forumers over there

Dragonland are releasing a new album?
I love you Andreas! Without you, I would miss a load album releases!

I can't remember all the release dates but I'm looking forward to
new Albums by
Hammerfall
Black Stone Cherry
Alestorm
Korpiklaani - Uckon Wacka (should be released the upcoming days)

Currently I have no idea if Turisas or Korpiklaani have already released their album. I must check it out...I'm so lame!

Stratovarius - Elysium (already released and bought)
Excalion - TBA (they are about to enter studio so it is possible to get a new album before the end of the year)
Hammerfall - TBA
Sonata Arctica - TBA (possibly a new studio album and definately a new Live DvD +2cd)
Power Quest - Blood Alliance
Symphony X - Iconoclast
Hammerfall - TBA
Dream Theater - TBA
Adamantra - TBA

Symfonia - TBA
In Flames - TBA
Leverage - TBA
Rhapsody of Fire - From Chaos To Eternity
Winterborn - TBA (almost done)

And a bunch more

Anytime


Wut?

Translation: Hi everyone! We are currently having a break from playing gigs and composing the next album is almost complete and contract problems are about to start again and we don't know how long it will take this time. And we are aware that the site should be updated and we are about to redo the whole thing. And meanwhile try to behave!

That was in spetember last year. No news since. Recording shouldn't take long with this band but these contracts may take some time. My bet is that the album will be released soon.
