About this product
Product Information
This book tackles the history of Germanys Noise Records, the most influential European independent heavy metal record company of the 1980s. The creation of Karl-Ulrich Walterbach, Noise was responsible for signing and developing the likes of Hellhammer/Celtic Frost, Coroner, Gamma Ray, Grave Digger, Helloween, Kreator, Running Wild, Skyclad, Tankard, and many more, assembling a roster whose impact reverberates throughout the metal scene today. For the first time, Walterbach goes into elaborate detail on his experiences in the music industry. A self-proclaimed anarchist with no musical background to speak of, Walterbach rose from the violent Berlin punk rock scene to the forefront of European metal after launching Noise in 1983. Walterbachs gut instinct for signing new talent made him one of metals first true label impresarios, but his abrasive personality and unwillingness to conform to industry standards made him an outsider in a business he grew to despise. The book takes the reader through Walterbachs early days of getting Noise off the ground, as the metal scene rallied around black/death metal progenitors Celtic Frost, power metal torchbearers Helloween, and Teutonic thrash upstarts Kreator. The book chronicles Walterbachs A&R triumphs and failures, frustrating experiences with the eras major labels, and the social climate of running a record company stationed 15 minutes away from the Berlin Wall. And, it contains Walterbachs no-holds-barred commentary on the bands and industry counterparts he did business with during his time running Noise until 2001. However, a one-sided book this is not. Hellhammer/Celtic Frost leader Tom G Warrior and his band mates reflect on their humble Swiss countryside beginnings, where they worked diligently to change the face of underground extreme metal. Yet even though Celtic Frost was Noises first breakout band, they were met with regular opposition from Walterbach. With over 75 exclusive interviews from every main Noise band member, manager, and industry personality, along with countless never-before-seen photographs, the book provides a thorough, balanced look into a record company that helped establish mainland Europe as a global force in metal.
