To the Iron Gang,

We are finally done with the writing of the album.
The songs have a bit of an eerie vibe, with experimental vocals by Snake, spiralling solos by Piggy and heaviness courtesy of Jasonic !

arf ben je ne suis rien de tout ça, et pour être honnête j'aime pas non plus des masses Voivod
Ceci dit je reconnais qu'ils ont défini un style totalement unique fut un temps, et en cela ils imposent le respect.

Tiens d'ailleurs ça pourrait faire l'objet d'un topic ça...

[Everflow]

Tiens j'ai trouvé des news blackwarrior Ils ont signé chez The End :

The End Records have confirmed the signing of Canadian metal legends VOIVOD to their roster for the USA. The band is due to enter the studio in the fall of 2005, but a release date for Voivod's 11th studio album has yet to be confirmed. An early 2006 release is expected.

Drummer Michel Langevin (aka Away) comments on the new deal: "We are very proud to join The End Records in their quest to promote progressive heavy music. A perfect home for a band like Voivod.”

Voivod have completed the writing of the album, and Away describes the material as "heavy and experimental."

merci fangface pour les news.......

mais je te comprends assez quand tu dis que t'es pas fan........

j'ai commencé a écouter Voivod avec leur dernier album (avec jason newsteed) et cet album est bien,vraiment.......
et je me suis dit que ça serait pas mal d'écouter leurs premiers albums et là:
paf!!!
j'ai rien compris vu que c'était assez différent de ce que j'avais entendu,quand je dis différent c'est vrai que je n'ai pas trop accroché sur les premiers albums.......

donc j'espère juste que leur prochain album ressemblera au dernier......

[CARPE DIEM]

si tu arrives à choper (via amazon c'est possible) Angel Rat et The Outer Limits, tu devrais aimer, c'est assez proche de l'album avec Jason. Mais tu peux aussi récupérer dimension hatross et nothing face, plus brut mais vraiment cool, et si tu aimes les sensations fortes, les deux albums avec eric forrest au chant et à la basse, là c'est du cyber thrash de haute volée. Pour finir, complète la collec avec les trois premiers, plus noisy punk thrashisant crado

[Everflow]

Ils prévoient même 2 autres DVDs après celui décrit plus haut, ils s'arrêtent plus :

MVD (Music Video Distributors) has confirmed that they will be releasing two more VOIVOD DVDs, following the release of the upcoming D-V-O-D-1 DVD, which is due out on October 25th via MVD.

Leur guitariste Piggy serait très malade

"Our good friend and guitar hero Denis D'Amour (a.k.a. Piggy) is very ill. We are helping Denis in every way that we can to feel comfortable while he fights to get healthy. Denis is a very private person and does not want to make a big deal about his illness, so we will not be able to answer questions about his condition or give any other details at this time. We appreciate your understanding.

"Please feel welcome to send any notes, good words and positive vibes to Piggy at one or both of the following contacts and we will make sure he gets to read them."

[Tony Le Pouilleux]

Pas bon du tout comme nouvelle

[Tony Le Pouilleux]

Il semble que Piggy et Away se sont joints à un groupe de rock en français. Quoi, que je ne sais pas comment ça va virer vu que Piggy est malade.

TABARNAK!

VOIVOD Guitarist Is Suffering From Advanced Colon Cancer - Aug. 26, 2005

Quebec City newspaper Le Soleil is reporting that VOIVOD guitarist Denis "Piggy" D'Amour is suffering from advanced colon cancer — so advanced that the disease has spread to his liver — and is currently resting in the palliative care ward at a Montreal hospital, surrounded by family and friends.

D'Amour, who was reportedly diagnosed with colon cancer earlier in the summer, first entered the hospital for a routine operation, but several complications led his doctors to suspect more problems. Then the grim verdict was revealed: the cancer, already too advanced, would be inoperable.

Only two months ago, D'Amour was in the studio working on two albums — the 14th album from the Canadian thrash-metal pioneers VOIVOD, plus a reunion CD from the legendary AUT'CHOSE, a '70s band from Montreal.

"Our good friend and guitar hero Denis D'Amour is very ill," his bandmates Denis "Snake" Bélanger, Michel "Away" Langevin, and Jason "Jasonic" Newsted write on their web site. "We are helping Denis in every way that we can to feel comfortable while he fights to get healthy."

D'Amour's current condition casts doubt on the status of the projects he was working on before his hospitalization. AUT'CHOSE are still scheduled to appear at L'Imperial in Quebec City this Saturday (August 27). Martin Dupuis will once again replace the man he considers an idol. The group's new album, for which D'Amour had already completed his tracks, is slated for a summer 2006 release.

For VOIVOD, however, things are less certain. Work on a new album had begun, but according to a Le Soleil source, the CD had not reached an advanced stage of completion. The band was forced to put studio work on hold while bassist Jason Newsted was treated for tendonitis.

VOIVOD Guitarist Slips Into Coma As Friends And Family Prepare For The Worst - Aug. 27, 2005

VOIVOD guitarist Denis "Piggy" D'Amour slipped into a coma Thursday night (August 25) as a result of complications from advanced colon cancer — so advanced that the disease has spread to his liver — informed sources have told BLABBERMOUTH.NET. D'Amour is currently in the palliative care unit of a Montreal hospital, surrounded by family and friends, who are preparing for the worst.

Quebec City newspaper Le Soleil reported yesterday that D'Amour — who was diagnosed with colon cancer earlier in the summer — first entered the hospital for a routine operation, but several complications led his doctors to suspect more problems. Then the grim verdict was revealed: the cancer, already too advanced, was inoperable.

Only two months ago, D'Amour — who is believed to be in his forties — was in the studio working on the 14th album from the Canadian thrash-metal pioneers VOIVOD. More than two dozen tracks are believed to have been demoed for the CD, for which the group recently inked a deal with The End Records. However, the band were forced to put studio work on hold while bassist Jason Newsted (ex-METALLICA) was treated for tendonitis.

In a recent interview with Billboard.com, Newsted spoke about the material slated to appear on the group's next CD. "It's the most complete demos I've ever been involved in," he said. "[VOIVOD singer] Snake has already chosen his effects — exact timing of milliseconds for delay. We've had a long time to develop the demos, so there's about 23 or 25 songs that are absolutely listenable right now."

Newsted was a huge fan of VOIVOD before he was invited to join and he remains a great admirer to this day. "They created something a long, long time ago that may have been emulated many, many times since — but nobody can do it like the original," he offered.

Prior to his hospitalization, D'Amour laid down guitar tracks for a reunion CD from the legendary AUT'CHOSE, a '70s band from Montreal. That album is expected to surface next summer.

UPDATED: VOIVOD Guitarist DENIS 'PIGGY' D'AMOUR Dead Of Colon Cancer - Aug. 27, 2005

VOIVOD guitarist Denis "Piggy" D'Amour passed away Friday night (August 26) at approximately 11:45 p.m. due to complications from advanced colon cancer — so advanced that the disease had spread to his liver.
