Previously Unreleased 1998 Concert from The Rolling Stones Available Now

Filmed at the German city’s Weserstadion on September 2, 1998 during the Bridges to Babylon tour, The Rolling Stones had by then completed four legs in the stadiums and arenas of North America (twice), Asia and South America before finally landing in Europe early that summer.
Ever the innovators, Bridges To Babylon was a tour of firsts – the first time the band went on the road with a permanent B-stage, and also the first time where fans could vote on the band’s website for a track they wanted to hear at the show – “Memory Motel” in the case of the Bremen fans.

This concert film has been meticulously restored from the original masters, and the audio remixed and remastered from the live multitrack recordings. Four tracks from their Soldier Field performances in Chicago are included as bonus features. The exact same place their upcoming US and Canada No Filter Tour kicks off on June 21st!
Bridges To Bremen is available on DVD+2CD, Blu-ray+2CD, 3LP and an exclusive bronze 3LP+shirt bundle – order your copy now!

Forty years on, this definitive performance by the original band has been restored from the original film reels, remixed and remastered for this release.

Album Re-Issues & Releases

Vintage Steel Straight Outta  The Manamal's Pit

N.M.E took shape in Pittsburgh, PA during the mid-'80s, stabilizing a lineup of guitarists Michael Weldon and Brian Keruskin, Chuck Robinson on bass, drummer Dave Snyder, and vocalist Jirus. The group spent a full year honing a catalog of hard-charging heavy metal from mid-1987 through July of 1988, at which time they recorded nine songs at Space Station Studios in Uniontown, PA. Originally intended to be released as a full-length album called The End of Innocence, the professional-sounding effort was only issued in limited quantities on dubbed cassettes with handwritten labels.>>Read More

STATUE formed in Tuusula, Finland in late-1988, when guitarist/vocalist Ari Anttonen joined forces with a formerly instrumental trio called Blitzkrieg—featuring Jari Vanhanen on drums, and brothers Marko and Mika Moisio on guitar and bass.
Subsequent to the release of the LP, STATUE toured Finland with A.R.G., but unsatisfied with the poor promotion of a label mostly known for dance music, the band simply lost steam before the end of 1991.
"Comes to Life" would become an obscure treasure—original CD copies fetching hundreds of dollars apiece from collectors—and thus fell victim to the Russian bootleg market...
...but now, almost 30 years later, Divebomb Records is proud to resurrect STATUE's powerful thrash with this band-approved re-release!

HEAVENWARD
A Future Worth Talking About? (Deluxe Edition)
DIVE179
Street Date 6/7/2019

Following the 1991 release of HEAVENWARD's debut album, "Within These Dreams", vocalist Stefan Kessel constructed an all-new lineup consisting of former members of the band Vallyz—guitarist Andreas Rippelmeier, Guido Gallus on drums, and bassist Marc Schulz. This formation would go on to create the group's sophomore effort, "A Future Worth Talking About?"—an eight-song outing of superb, hard-edged power metal—issued in 1992 by the Inline Music imprint, Gorgon Records (which would also go on to release material by acts such as Skeptic Sense and Myrmidion Creed).
