Sylvester Stallone is preparing himself to begin shooting for 'Rambo 5'. The 68-year-old action star revealed that he has begun his work out routine to play his role as John Rambo.
The last film from the 'Rambo' franchisee was released in 2008. The 'Expendables' star says he begun working on his body to return as John Rambo in the upcoming film.
Stallone says that preparation for 'Rambo 5' is on. He has starting to work out to fit his character. The character of John Rambo is vicious, yet intellectual.
Rambo is a killer with a heart. He is smart, yet stupid; tall, but short; broad, yet thin. The filmmakers are going include these aspects in Rambo's character, added Stallone.
'Rambo 5' will see Stallone's face off with a Mexican cartel. Earlier Stallone had described the latest Rambo as "his version of No Country for Old Men."
There is no cure for Apocalypse, no reason for redemption – the end is incoming and we should embrace it as a consummation devoutly to be wished.
Coming from the band that brought us “Total Nihilism” in 2012, the philosophical conceit behind NITRO/NOISE’s stunning second album “No Cure For Apocalypse” should hardly come as a surprise. Neither really should the sheer power and quality of the tracks on offer.
Mixed and mastered in its entirety by Jan L at his X-Fusion Music Production studios in Germany, “No Cure for Apocalypse” is an album that not only lives up to the promise of “Total Nihilism” but goes greatly beyond it.
No nonsense, no mercy, “No Cure For Apocalypse” is simply 10 relentless anthems for the end of days – as uncompromising and unstoppable as the Armageddon it suggests we all deserve – topped off with a collaboration with long-time champion of NITRO/NOISE Thomas Rainer/NACHTMAHR, and an atmospheric coda.
Describing it as ”fantastic” and “the album COMBICHRIST wanted to make after What The F**k Is Wrong With You People”, MODULATE’s Geoff Lee was moved to write “It's going to be a contender for Album Of The Year 2014, no doubt…there isn't a bad/weak track on it….the best harsh aggrotech album I've heard in a very very long time!”
Thanks Geoff – we owe you a pint.
From the opening assault of “The Revelation” through to tenth track “Wake Up Call” - dedicated to groupies the band ran into over the course of their first American tourdates last year, and boasting a lyrical refrain that is probably guaranteed to give offence to some – “No Cure For Apocalypse” surpasses “Total Nihilism” in both its intensity and danceability, beat-driven and lyrically bleak.
And if that were not enough, in a move that will no doubt court controversy NITRO/NOISE then proceed to join forces with Austria’s infamous agent provocateur Thomas Rainer to deliver a tongue-in-cheek riposte to criticisms levelled at NACHTMAHR – the cheekily-titled “We Demand Better” – before finally ending the album with (for NITRO/NOISE) the very atypical vocoded vocals and melancholic refrain of “Don’t Be Afraid (Piano Rework)”.
In 1996 Daily Planet released their debutalbum “The Tide” receiving brilliant reviews and the band quickly became popular with hits like “Milky Way” and “Radioactive Love”. Then.... nothing....
The band more or less disappeared from the radar. Lead vocalist Jarmo Ollila later continued with Mr Jones Machine that has released three succesful albums on Progress Productions.
But now 18!!! years later the duo Jarmo Ollila and Johan Baeckström return to the scene.The result you have in front of you “Two”. 11 fantastic and wonderful electronic pop tracks.
Finally a band that return to the roots with style. The vocals, the productions, the melodies......THE FEELING.... like time had almost stood still... but without becoming a boring “retro”-band.
Progress Productions are proud to present you. The return of a classic swedish act: Daily Planet.
