Recorded at the Cantareira College studios in São Paulo on the 31st of October and 1st of November 2009 by production agency Old Jack, "The Infallible Reason Of My Freak Drumming" brings songs included in the last two Hangar albums ("The Reason Of Your Conviction" and "Infallible"), in the Freakeys project as well as drum solos. The material was recorded with six cameras in full HD system, thus allowing Aquiles’ performance to be shown in detail.

Besides the songs, "The Infallible Reason of My Freak Drumming" contains countless details which will be the joy of drummers, be they beginners or experienced. The video contains a series of exercises, executed both on the rubber pad as on the actual drum kit, such as paradiddles, one of Aquiles’ trademarks on the bass drums, exercises using both bass drums, tips about the basic position of hands when holding the drumsticks, initial positioning at the drum kit and a description of all the equipment used by him. Besides all the didactic material, there is also a revealing interview conducted by journalist Antonio Carlos Monteiro.

Perfect for drummers or even rock fans in general and Aquiles’ fans in particular, "The Infallible Reason of My Freak Drumming" promises to be a differential in what refers to instructional videos for drummers – the same way as Aquiles also is a differential when speaking of musicians who revolutionized the art of playing drums.

INFALLIBLE REVIEW

JAN.05.2010 - News: The band Hangar inaugurates own tour bus
The band Hangar closed a deal with Selenium, the largest Latin American loud speaker manufacturer. They also manufacture Maverick amplifiers. The result of this partnership is unique in the national heavy metal market. For the first time in the history of the style in Brazil, the band will travel in their own personalized tour bus, carrying all stage and PA equipment necessary for the gigs. Therefore, all “The Infallible Tour 2010/2011” gigs will have the same stage and sound, no matter where the band will be playing. “This is the main reason why we still didn’t officially begin the promotional shows of “Infallible”. We were waiting for the bus to be completed,” says drummer Aquiles Priester. “We want to promote the album in an innovative manner in the national market because we’re sure that every heavy metal fan deserves to see and hear a quality gig,” concludes the drummer.

With this initiative, gigs are more viable than before since the transportation costs of the band, crew and equipment are usually very steep. With their own tour bus, the cost-benefit relation will be more interesting thus facilitating gigs all over the country.

The band is already scheduling gigs in Brazil for March 2010 and contacts should be made by email: contact@hangar.mus.br

The Infallible Tour 2010/2011 is endorsed by: Selenium, Maverick Amplifiers, Mapex Drums, Paiste Cymbals, Evans Drum Heads, Pro-Mark Sticks, Staff Drum, Audio-Technica Microphones, DW Pedals, Gibraltar Hardware, Urban Boards PsychoShoes, Aeroric Customs Drums, Ciclotron, Zoom Effects, Power Click, Warm Music Amplifiers, Loud Vox, D’Addario Strings, Planet Waves Cables, Takamine Guitars, Ledur Guitars and Basses, Tokai Electronic Organs, Shred Cases, Strazza Cases, EM&T, Playtech, Consulado do Rock, Lady Snake Rock Wear, Batera Store, Joker Tattoo, Jander Tattoo and Stay Heavy TV Program.

Release Hangar – Infallible

“Infallible”. This is the name of Hangar’s new album. And, besides the evident meaning it has in the album’s context, few words could fit the band as well as it. The perfectionism and hard-work demonstrated by the band for over 12 years is palpable in each and every album, always commanded by world wide known drummer Aquiles Priester.

For the production process of the fourth album, Hangar secluded themselves in a farm near Tatuí (located in the countryside of São Paulo, home to one of the best music schools in the country, and for that reason known as the “Music Capital” of Brazil), where Aquiles, Eduardo, Fábio, Mello and the new lead singer, Humberto Sobrinho, dedicated themselves to composing the ten songs of the album. After that, they recorded guitar, bass, keyboard and vocal lines in the same place, using the mobile unit of Daufembach’s Studio, under the command of sound engineer Adair Daufembach. The drums were recorded at The Magic Place Studio (Florianópolis), in a room specially projected to provide the perfect ambience for the instrument. Subsequently, Aquiles traveled with Adair to Celle (Germany) to mix and master the CD with Tommy Newton (Area 51 Studio), thus finalizing an album of exceptional sound quality, clear and bright when necessary, without losing the characteristic dirty sound a good Heavy Metal album.

Infallible, according to the band, represents the very feeling they want to transmit to their public with the new album. “It’s our most extreme album, whether concerning technique, virtue and speed or the more melodic, accessible side”, says Aquiles. As to the lyrics, even though this is not a conceptual album, they have a theme in common: “They talk about the forces that move human beings while pursuing their aims, without leaving the path of honesty. It’s an optimistic album on the subject of fighting and accomplishing goals”, guarantees the drummer.

“The Infallible Emperor - 1956” is the first track of the album, presenting a beautiful vocal melody interpreted at high speed commanded by Aquiles’ double bass drumming and by Martinez’s guitar riffs. “Colorblind” is more intricate theme, with several rhythm shifts and striking backing vocals. Humberto has the opportunity to show all of his ability in “Solitary Mind”, which is an inspired mid-tempo composition. Drama plays its part in “Time to Forget”, a ballad with Theo Vieira as guest musician, and which opens the way to the power thrash metal “A Miracle in my Life”, where Humberto uses some precise drives and the band presents the most speedy and brutal work of their entire career. More direct in its harmony, “The Garden” presents us with an elaborate composition and an inspired, though short, keyboard solo by Fabio Laguna, not to mention a very different structure when compared to the other songs.

It was no accident that the next track, “Dreaming of Black Waves”, was chosen to be the album’s first video clip. Its catchy melody contrasts with an amazingly beautiful musical arrangement, especially in the leading and backing vocals of guest singer Stefanie Schirmbeck, from the band Holiness. Another modern ballad, “Based on a True Story”, shows an extremely up-to-date band, while “Handwritten” is a very competent power metal, again bringing a different interpretation by Humberto. “Some Light to Find My Way”, has a hard rock influence in its first chords, shifting like magic to an efficient power metal with unforgettable choruses.

To close the album, Hangar recorded two cover songs. The first is “39”, a classic by Queen classic that the band managed to recreate with tremendous competence – especially Humberto, who was approved with honors in the difficult task of singing a song from such band. This song was chosen, says Aquiles, because of the following reasons: “Firstly, we didn’t want a number-one hit. Apart from that, our intention was also to show a little of our acoustic background and to prove that we can know how to be simple when necessary”.

The following may be the song the fans find most peculiar. “Mais uma Vez”, released only in Brazil, was written in 1987 by Flávio Venturini and Renato Russo and is part of the album Sete of the group 14 Bis. Besides, the song counts with special guest stars Roupa Nova on vocals. According to Aquiles, “the first time I heard this song in the 80´s, I felt inspired by the lyrics. During all these years the song had a very strong meaning in our work and we had already played it acoustically during the tour of our last album”. According to the band, Roupa Nova has a tradition in what refers to participations in albums of other artists: the band only accepts an invitiation of this type if all six members agree, since they don´t do individual participations. In short, the musicians of Roupa Nova not only approved of the version of “Mais uma Vez”, but also created a very unique interpretation for the song without abandoning the characteristics of the sextet. In the long run, the contrast between an insinuating song, Hangar´s heavy instrumentals and the soft voices of Roupa Nova created something totally new and captivating. Aquiles states that this version of "Mais uma Vez" is a turning point for the band: “We were always great admirers of Roupa Nova´s work and having these guys on our album is one of the most important moments in our history. Furthermore, we can show our fans and music lovers in general that we are exactly like everyone else and also need an extra dose of daily motivation."

The last track is a remake of “Like a Wind in the Sky” of the album Last Time (1999), and will be released only in Japan. It has a great melody, amazing backing vocals and a perfect instrumental performance.

Direct, varied, competent… Certainly the soon to come reviews of this new album will contain these and many other adjectives. If anyone prefers to use the word “infallible”, they will be right too.

APRIL.24.2009 – Hangar’s Recording Diaries: A headbanger’s tears are not those of a crocodile...


The beginning is always harder, since it’s difficult to establish a rhythm, but those days are already gone… Now many of our songs are already finished and have gained their own life, going far beyond any of us had imagined…

Now we’re recording the bass, guitars, acoustic guitars, leading and backing vocals. After that, to finish our work, we have to record guitar solos and fit the keyboard part that Fábio is doing at his home from the files we send him by Net… We only have net when we go to Tatuí, since our piece of land, ‘Recanto das Águas’, is about 12 km far from the city, and the road is pure earth… Rainy days transform it in a rally, I mean, a big PARTY!

Mello has already finished his part and is already in his comfortable home, away from the dangerous jungle… In order to do that, last Sunday we spent the whole night until 7am on Monday working, and Adair (aka Ram) had his first MASTER “breakdown”, crying out loud: “I’ve never spent a night awaken, let alone working!”... And one of us said: “Welcome to our weird and adorable crazy little world…” To easy our life, we’ve ranked the different levels of breakdown: junior, senior and master. The champion so far is Mr. Martinez, who experiments different levels of breakdown everyday, but no one has managed yet to break Mello’s Master Breakdown during the early hours when he was recording his bass… Well, after eighteen hours, it’s not that easy…

Buzz is here with us, and he is probably having much more fun than any of us… Today he crossed our little pond from side to side for the first time… He is exercising a lot, since everyone (except Adair, aka Ram) goes jogging and he follows… Sometimes Buzz looks at me and I can imagine him saying: “Life in the country is lovely, there’s a party everyday… We should stay here…”

Last week we did the first official photoshoot with Humberto, and photographer Natalia Lett, from Sao Paulo, came here to register this moment. All things were fast, since we wanted to keep working all nightlong, and the photos in this diary are from that day…

On the next day, we had a big surprise: a headbanger crying for real, in front of me… As we were recording one of our most rhythmic songs, with clean guitars and acoustic guitars, but also with guitar distortion (yes, we had both clean guitars and guitar distortion parts), Mr. Eduardo Martinez entered the room to hear the final version of T*** ** ***** and simply broke down crying…

Humberto put unique leading vocals in that song, in a very different style from hat he is used to. Immediately after everyone saw a headbanger crying, he said: “I was here imagining all things the lyrics are saying and all the possibilities this song is offering us… I can’t wait to see this song mixed and mastered by Tommy.”

And I said: “I can’t wait to let our FANS hear this music…”

Soon we’ll be back with a video of the recordings…

APRIL.09.2009 – Hangar’s Recording Diaries: Carrying on with the Recordings…


While I was recording the drums in Florianópolis, I received a call from Serginho Herval, Roupa Nova’s drummer, inviting me to go to the cocktail party of their newly released DVD, named “Roupa Nova em Londres, uma viagem inesquecível” (Roupa Nova in London: an unforgettable trip).

He told me wonderful things about recording in the studio that got famous for recording many Beatles albums, called Abbey Road. Every time I meet Serginho, I am in awe of this guy’s life. He has been playing in Roupa Nova for 29 years, and I don’t even open my mouth in order to learn from his experience.

Numerous artists were there, and I was representing the working classes of Heavy Metal…

I had a lot of fun and I can say the DVD is excellent in every aspect, specially the mixing.

Open Parenthesis… It’s time to think:

On the next day it was time to resume our recording, and we decided to create a new, mobile unit of Daufembach’s studio and finish all our recording in Tatuí.

There we are isolated from the rest of the world, and we can work whenever it pleases ourselves…

We are already recording the parts of guitars and bass. The guitar part is abnormally heavy! This time, it seems all things conspired with us: the guitarist, the guitar, the audio technician, the amp, the environment, the songs and, most importantly, the general need to outdo ourselves. I am quite surprised with the result; I was feeling very awkward to record a new CD after TROYC, but I********* (this can be the album’s title) exceeded our expectations.

On Monday Humberto starts recording the songs, and we are looking forward to show you little teasers of our new songs with him as leading vocal.

We’ll soon be back with more videos!

APRIL.09.2009 – King of Drums
There are fans who would give their entire Sepultura collection to see this: Aquiles Priester, ex-Angra and considered one of the best drummers in the whole world, recording the bases for Hangar’s new album. Those recording sections took place at The Magic Place studio, Florianópolis, under the supervision of Adair Daufembach. Visual producer Antonio Rossa – who was in awe of Aquiles’ giant drum kit- clicked the whole event and will send the photos to all worldly-known, most widely read drumming magazines.

APRIL.05.2009 – Aquiles Priester Records Drums at The Magic Place Studio
Who said major rock stars don’t pass by Florianópolis? Recently, the island’s music scene has shown quality enough to gather musicians from all over the country and world. Between March 26th and 29th, the “monster” Aquiles Priester recorded in Florianópolis the drums for the upcoming Hangar’s CD at The Magic Place studio.

On March 24th, at night, the team formed by musical producer Adair Daufembach and Renato Pimentel (Brasil Papaya), the studio’s owner and manager, set up Aquiles’ drum kit and on the 25th prepared the audio and sound-checking part. With the huge drum kit properly set, they started recording, thing that lasted four days and was accompanied by drummers Alex Paulista (Brasil Papaya) and Felipe Malisca (Syndrome).

Hangar is a high-profiled metal band and Aquiles Priester has been repeatedly considered the best drummer in Brasil and one of the world’s tops. And The Magical Place studio was his option for recording the yet unnamed new CD. Based on Adair’s advice, Aquiles chose the studio for its large rooms, which have a perfect acoustic. “Here we have a very nice home-like atmosphere that I need while working, making me relaxed to do a good job. It is the best drum recording ever done by Hangar” said Aquiles.

In January, Hangar started looking for a new lead singer after Nando Fernandes left the band. In March, after choosing among 150 candidates, the fortunate Chosen One and the band took refuge in Tauí –São Paulo, to give the new singer a chance to know the band a little more and to take the final decisions concerning the CD. “Humberto Sobrinho is the new lead singer, and he fits well in our main aims, both musical and professionally, being tough and demonstrating an amazing versatile voice” says the drummer.

While recording, Aquiles used for the first time a brand-new Mapex kit, featuring a bass drum on the left side and a timbalito to do some different grooves. When talking about cymbals, he brought two prototypes of signature rides made especially for him by Paiste, with larger cymbal bells that lead to a clearer, more definite sound, plus three different snare drums.

Aquiles brought a series of equipment that were at hand to broad his options, a trademark of a drummer who likes variety and says to have freedom to show his abilities in Hangar. When on live performance, Aquiles is known to be faithful to what is done in studio: “I respect my fans and, consequently, I’m faithful to what is on the CD. Live performance is a thing that must be done appropriately.”

Talking about what will be on the CD, the team promises a fast, extreme one, since the band is always evolving/changing, though always being faithful to its initial aims. Although the lyrics are yet to be finished, they’ll have as a theme overcoming difficulties and outdoing one’s own capacity. The whole team is very positive about the result, since the competence of all is beyond all doubt, as is the quality of sound, equipment and studio.

In the words of Ricardo Pimentel: “I believe the recording process went exactly like Aquiles and Adair had imagined, since we used top equipment and paid particular attention to music execution and arrangement. Undoubtedly, it was a pleasure to meet Aquiles and Adair, both nice, competent people and, of course, to have them recording here in The Magical Place!”

Audio mixing and mastering are to take place on May 15th with Tommy Newton, the same of the previous CD, “The Reason of Your Conviction”.

APRIL.01.2009 – Hangar’s Recording Diaries: Next Stage!
It was a total of five work-days: one just for sound-checking and four to record 12 songs. On the first day one song was recorded, two in the second, another two in the third and four in the fourth day. I left the worst tracks to Days Two and Three, since the tension of Day One had passed and I was already getting used to the room’s acoustic and with my microphone.

Recording is just like that: every single person has a way of doing it and it is not always advisable to change those ways…

On the second day, I started with the seven-and-a-half minute song, which was named “Death Trash Metal”… Jesus, that gave us a taste of Hell… On the next day, while I was listening what was recorded, I decided to change whole the instrumental part and that made my legs turn to jelly, just like in the day before, after recording the same track… On Day Three, should I be able to buy a new set of legs, I would have done it.

On the last day, while I was doing the soundcheck and warming up, Malisca (who was soon nicknamed Marisco or Marica) entered the room to film and accidentally stepped on the cable of one of my over-heads and unplugged the microphone. Unfortunately, Adair just noticed that when I was already in the middle of the song, and that was when he said: “The little shit truck parked, its tyre was punctured and the shit is all over the place!”

KEY > LITTLE SHIT TRUCK PASSING BY: means we are foreseeing something that IS bound to go wrong and we do absolutely nothing to stop it from happening. The little truck is full of shit, its tyre is punctured, the shit goes all over and theirs is nothing we can do.

In that music’s case, the truck turned upside-down and guess who the driver was? Yes, Murphy, and his mate was the Contrary…

I started all over again, felling horrible, since all the effort and concentration would be required again, but that was the only way and that was what I did. To hours and a half later, the song was ready.

While recording, I used different snare drums and cymbals, based on the music speed, and the result was very nice.

Since you all are so curious, we decided to film some parts of the songs, and some little things that happened in the studio while I was there…

Marisca was the responsible for filming and filming edition.

I would also like to thank Renato Pimentel of The Magical Place studio, to Adair Daufembach and Marisca for the wonderful atmosphere that we had during these 5 days together. The photographer Antonio Rossa, from Florianópolis, was another fantastic person I met and was the one who did and excellent photo shoot that you can take a look below:

Recording is different every time, and exciting because whenever you are recording a new CD, you never know what’ll happen, if people are going to both accept and understand the new thing. It was awesome to share all those things with those guys, because they were all musicians, and also gave me confidence and cheered the good ideas that appeared while I was recording. The best part is that I felt nothing was faked. All that vibration was genuine.

Now we are going to start recording the other instruments and we’ll proceed with the diaries, keeping you informed. In the meantime, check out this video; I hope you like it.
