Black Label Society and The Pixies Going High Def

08/05/2010
.
Eagle Rock Entertainment has announced an August 24th release date for new concert Blu-rays from Black Label Society and the Pixies.

For twenty years, guitarist Zakk Wylde has been bashing skulls and bringing the brutality, both as Ozzy Osbourne's right hand man and fronting his own band, Black Label Society. Doom Troopin' Live – The European Invasion, features the band performing before a Paris crowd in the midst of a sold out 2005 tour, in support of the Mafia album.

Extensive bonus features include four tracks from the Astoria show in London, the 50-minute "Backstage Pass" on-the-road documentary, music videos for "Suicide Messiah," "In This River," and "Fire It Up," and a making-of video of "Suicide Messiah." Originally released as a standard DVD in August 2006, this Blu-ray, with pumped up picture and sound quality, showcases the mighty molten prowess of BLS.

Creating the mold for countless indie/alternative acts to come, the Pixies spent the late eighties and early nineties setting a new standard of rock. This blueprint was followed and embellished upon by bands spanning the gamut, from Britpop to grunge. After 10 years of self-imposed silence, singer/songwriter/guitarist Frank Black, bassist/vocalist Kim Deal, guitarist Joey Santiago, and drummer David Lovering reunited in 2004.

Pixies: Acoustic & Electric Live captures two 2005 concerts, at the Paradise club in Boston and their first ever all-acoustic performance, filmed at the Newport Folk Festival. As a bonus, fans can enjoy a Newport photo gallery, the Newport rehearsal featurette, with an acoustic version of "Debaser" that did not make the final set list, and original home video footage of a live 1986 show at TT The Bear's in Boston. Originally released as separate DVDs in 2006, these concerts are now in pristine high-def quality in a single package.
