HEAVEN - The making of Knockin' On Heavens Door behind the scenes of the video clip Knockin' On Heavens Door by HEAVEN Back in the early 80's, after quickly developing a repertoire and reputation HEAVEN were approached by super manager Michael Browning who, after establishing AC/DC in Australia and the UK and then scoring them the international deal with Atlantic Records which eventually broke them worldwide, had recently relinquished the management of the group and set up his own label and publishing company, Deluxe Records, distributed through RCA. Browning made Fryer, Kelly, Marlow, Turtur and Haese their labelmates. The moniker "Heaven" was adopted at the suggestion of Browning and their first releases, the singles "One Nighter" and "Fantasy" were released through 1981, both lifted off the 1982 long player "Twilight Of Mischief".

HEAVEN - Boys Night Out unreleased music video of "Boys Night Out" HEAVEN basically evolved from the split of Adelaide outfit FAT LIP, which comprised of Fryer, former CHEEK bassist Felix Maslin, former SCANDAL drummer Aldo Civitcio and guitarist Steve Francis. Both Maslin and Francis left to create FAST FOOD as Fryer and Civitcio regrouped FAT LIP with Haese and Marlow. Before long Turtur had taken over on drums. Fryer then left to travel to Sydney to audition for AC/DC following the death of Bon Scott. As AC/DC announced Brian Johnson as their new vocalist Haese, Marlow and Turtur arrived in Sydney to reforge the band under the new title of HEAVEN. http://au.geocities.com/heavenaustralia/ Tags: HEAVEN Boys night out allan fryer australia rock metal |

DOOMFOXX - My Beautiful Friends This clip may be a ballad...but these guys rock! check em out at www.doomfoxx.com Take a big blender; add some Black Crows, with a dash of Velvet Revolver. Mix-in a bottle of JD, throw in a handful of pills and top it all off with a lot of sleazy old-school Aussie rock'n'roll. This must be the recipe for the hottest new band debuting at WOA 2005. I¹m talking about Doomfoxx. Sex, drugs, whiskey and Rock with a capital R. (Sabrina Boller Vampire-magazine.com October 2005) DOOMFOXX is pure rock n' roll. DOOMFOXX is the real deal. DOOMFOXX is the reptilian charm and whiskey-roached voice of Stuart McKie, the powerhouse guitar riffing of Mick Cocks and Dave Thomas, with the rock-solid driving engine room of bass Archi Read and drums Jase Burec. DOOMFOXX is a balls n' all, take no prisoners, raw, dirty, sexy, truly one damn-straight, gritty, gut 'n' soul, Aussie-bred, hard-rock band. In the last 12 months DOOMFOXX have recorded their debut, self-titled album with noted producer Peter Blyton and taken big leaps forward on the international music scene. Especially in Europe, where in the latter half of 2005 the band toured three times: with Rose Tattoo in June July, Quireboys in October and Uli Jon Roth in November, including a major highlight in early August appearing at the prestige WACKEN OPEN AIR hard-rock / metal festival in front of 40,000 people, after having been the first band in the history of WOA to play all stages on three different occasions; culminating in final night¹s main stage amazing show. www.doomfoxx.com .

The Casanovas - Living in the city Tommy Boyce Guitar / Vocals Damo Campbell Bass / Vocals Jordan 'Jaws' Stanley Drums The Casanovas were originally formed in 1999 with all three original members hailing from Melbourne, Australia. The Casanovas was the brainchild of brothers, Tommy and Patrick Boyce and original bassist, Jimmy Lewis. The Boyce brothers met Jim while working together scrubbing pots & pans in the back kitchen of Pattersons cake shop in Windsor, Melbourne. The idea of the name 'The Casanovas' was partly inspired by the look of the 'Casablanca' records logo that featured on early Kiss vinyls that they all grew up listening to, as well as a healthy dose of irony, (none of them were getting laid!). Early on, their sound was described as AC/DC meets KISS with leanings to the 70's New York punk sounds of such names as The Dictators and The Ramones. Although individually, they had many other influences that helped mould their sound. The Stooges, MC5, The Rolling Stones, The Saints, Dead Boys & Turbonegro just to name a few. Armed with only a handful of songs after five rehearsals, The Casanovas were quick to start gigging around the venues of suburban Melbourne. Supporting seminal local rock acts such as The Powdermonkeys, The Monarchs and Tim Rogers as well as the now massive White Stripes on their first tour of Australia. In mid 2000, The Casanovas cut their debut single, '10 Outta 10'. An anthemic, fist pumper that was released on 7" vinyl through local Melbourne punk label 'Full Toss' Records. This release established them on local community radio stations such as PBS and RRR as well as national radio on JJJ. The Casanovas were quick to gain their own local following and started grabbing peoples' attention with their 'balls to the wall' rock n' roll sound, along with an entertaining live show with their sometimes tongue in cheek style histrionics A short time later in 2001, the band expanded their line up and were joined by second guitarist, James Saunders. During this time the band played a JJJ live-at-the-wireless gig and scored a slot on the legendary Big Day Out festival in Melbourne This line-up lasted for about a year until James decided to leave due to work commitments. Mid 2002 saw the band team up with legendary Aussie producer/guitarist, Shane O'Mara to record their debut Ep, '..Keep It Hot'. In Late 2002, The Casanovas secured a support slot on The Dictators national tour of Australia This was a very exciting prospect for the band at the time because not only was this an opportunity to play with one of the band's biggest heroes, but it would be the very first time for The Casanovas to spread their wings and tour outside of Melbourne. Unfortunately, bassist Jimmy Lewis was unable to leave Melbourne for any extended period of time because of his full time work commitments which ultimately led to his decision to leave the band. Tommy and brother Pat recruited ex 'Mustang' bassist Damo Campbell as replacement and the tour went on as planned. Not long after this, the band signed to local indie label Rubber Records. A diet of constant gigging built strong rock muscles as the bands' profile began to build with a growing reputation as a bona fide live rock band. In 2003, The Casanovas were invited by New Zealand's 'The Datsuns' to join them on a nine week tour of Europe and America. After a run of around 40 shows around the world and a coveted slot on the SXSW festival in Texas, the band returned to more and more touring back in Australia and a reputation as one of the most hard working and exciting live rock acts in the country. The recording of their first album took place after and during heavy touring schedules, the pressure of which sadly, eventually lead to Patrick quitting the band to pursue a more 'sane' lifestyle. With the album half finished, Damo and Tommy recruited legendary 'Onyas' drummer, Jaws Stanley. After a mere 4 days of rehearsing the songs, Jaws went on to finish the drum tracks, allowing the album to be completed. With their new line-up and debut album finally released, The Casanovas hit the road again. Tours of the UK, Japan, USA, Indonesia, New Zealand and Australia saw the band's chemistry and live prowess continue to grow stronger. July 2005 saw the band complete their most recent tour of the UK and Spain and then on to California to sign a US deal with indie label, IROCK, (through which their debut album has been recently released through the US) and, to record their incredible sophomore album with legendary producer Sylvia Massy Shivy at Radiostar Studios... you'll have to wait for early 2006 to hear it though!

HEAVEN In The Beginning Classic and essential Australian Heavy Metal HEAVENS second music video was a headbanging mix of AC/DC-influence plus a touch of NWOBHM roughness with melody!
