Finally there happened the long-awaited and very
important event in the history of the "Metka"
band! We are ready to release our debut album!
We made a long and painstaking work - we have invested
in this CD a huge ammount of efforts, resources, and,
of course, out soul.
The first two copies of the album were personally
handed to the monsters of russian metal scene - Valery
Kipelov and Victor Smolsky. We are still waiting for
a reply from V. Kipelov, but one of the greatest guitarists
in the world - Victor Smolsky - has praised the work
and gave a very high appreciation for the album.
Now you have the opportunity to evaluate our creation!
In St. Petersburg this CD is already available in
stores "Predoo Rock", "Fenka",
"Old Jolly Rocker", "Dead Fish",
"Castle Rock", "Kailas", "Culture."
To the other cities disc can be send by mail, cash
on delivery.
For further details on these issues see "Discography"
sub-section.
More news.. Because of this event we have significantly
reorganized and redesigned the entire site - almost
all sections. Check out.
More news.. Also today we have formally accepted the
Metka solo-guitarist - Daniel Kuzin. Welcome aboard!
Speaking of our former guitarist - Sergei Tshe, we
owe him deep gratitude for the assistance and support
during the recording of the album, and concert activities.
It is possible that you will see him again in further
gigs of "Metka" as guest musician. Sergei
is very busy with his project "Citadel"
and because of that he can't pay enough time to both
groups.

Excellent news! Due to numerous requests from our
fans!
At the beginning of June, "Metka" jumps
in the studio in order to produce one of the most
interesting songs - "Metallica / Thin Lizzy /
Gladkov" cover called "Plastic Crow".
This song will be included in the single with the
same name, release of which is planned for autumn
2005. Read the lyrics
here.
We want to recall that this song is a unique idea,
which some called a "cover on cover on cover".
The famous Irish folk song was interpreted by "Thin
Lizzy", but in a more serious and heavy way this
has been done by "Metallica", and this song
got the name as "Whiskey in the Jar".
"Metka" has decided to combine this hit
together with a well-known Russian hit - a song from
the cartoon "Plasticine Crow". The group
performed this song many times at concerts, and every
time it was an incredible success. Soon you will hear
it in the professional audio quality!

At the last concert
there was a "baptism of fire" for our new
drummer Sergei Bushkevich, who came to replace Kirill
Dmitriyev. So you can expect to see soon some additions
to the "Band / Line-up" section! Now, with
renewed vigor, we are beginning a much more active concert
activity than it was in the last year. Next concert
with our band as a headliner will be the festival in
the Arctica Club on April 28! Check out for the details
in the "Concerts" section! |
