			<title>New Tackhead album in the 2nd half of 2013</title>
			<link>http://www.tackhead.com//news/article/300/</link>
			<description>The second half of 2013 will see the release of a new Tackhead album. It will be the first release...</description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[The album - there's no title yet - will contain between twelve and sixteen tracks. It will be the successor of the 1990 album <i>Strange Things</i>. Since that album, re-issued with loads of additional tracks by German record label Echobeach in 1999, the only release containing new material was the <i>Sharehead</i> album, but that was a 'shareholders only' release.
In the mean while, we're selling the very last copies of the strictly limited edition <i>Metal Box</i> DVD. For 111 Euro you not only get the DVD, but also a 2CD with recordings of  live performances in Berlin, Germany in 1988, and Lodz, Poland AND your  own copy of the 'Black Album' with unauthorised recordings from the  Tackhead vaults - for your ears only. Remember, there are only 111 numbered copies, worldwide.

			<title>Living Colour Vivid 25th Anniversary Tour </title>
			<link>http://www.tackhead.com//news/article/299/</link>
			<description>Doug Wimbish and Living Colour will tour Europe, the USA and Canada in March and April to celebrate...</description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<i>Vivid </i>was released on May 3, 1988. The band was discovered by Mick Jagger while playing a show at punk club CBGB's in 1987. The fact that Living Colour is an all-black heavy metal band drew much attention to the band and the album, which contained three singles and became one of the most popular albums of 1988, reaching #6 on the Billboard 200 and certified double platinum by the RIAA. 
The song <i>Funny Vibe </i>features a cameo appearance from Public Enemy's Chuck D and Flavor Flav. <i>Vivid</i> is included in the book <i>1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die. </i>It also contains a cover version of the Talking Heads' <i>Memories Can't Wait</i>.
Tackhead team mate Skip 'Little Axe' McDonald will accompany Doug Wimbish and Living Colour as support act on the first five gigs of the tour, in Scotland, the UK, The Netherlands and Belgium.]]></content:encoded>
