Austrian Death Machine is an American metal side project from San Diego, California, founded by As I Lay Dying vocalist Tim Lambesis to be a parody of and tribute to Arnold Schwarzenegger's films. ==Biography== Austrian Death Machine released their first album ''Total Brutal'' on July 22, 2008. The album was dedicated to Caleb Crain on May 14, 2008 for his birthday that was two months before the scheduled release date. A few months later they released a Christmas themed EP titled A Very Brutal Christmas. After some tour support of ''Total Brutal,'' Lambesis went back on tour with As I Lay Dying. While on tour he posted on Austrian Death Machine's MySpace blog that he had ideas to follow up ''Total Brutal'' with a double disc effort titled ''Double Brutal'' stating that the first disc would be original songs where the second disc would be composed of cover songs.〔(What are you thinking?! ) - Austrian Death Machine's Myspace Blog〕 After returning home from tour in early Summer 2009, he went to work on ''Double Brutal'' which was released September 29, 2009. Many in the press have pointed out that a Schwarzenegger movie-themed band concept was already being pursued by ArnoCorps, having been performing live in California and the UK beginning more than seven years prior to Lambesis' effort. Lambesis writes and records all the music playing guitar, bass, and drums as well as the majority of the vocals, leaving Destroy the Runner vocalist Chad Ackerman (portraying "Ahhhnold") to perform Schwarzenegger-like vocals. The only thing Lambesis or Ackerman do not record are the guitar solos in every song which are performed by various guitarists from other bands. Lambesis stated where As I Lay Dying "is heartfelt and full of passion" Austrian Death Machine on the other hand "is an outlet of pure testosterone and stupidity."〔(A letter from Tim... - Austrian Death Machine's Myspace Blog )〕 Tim Lambesis is still considering calling Austrian Death Machine's third album ''Keep It Brutal'', but welcomes suggestions. As of December 5, 2012, production on a third album has begun. It was announced on February 19, 2013, that their third studio album would be entitled ''Triple Brutal''. Despite Lambesis' May 7, 2013 arrest for attempting to hire a hitman to murder his estranged wife,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Metal singer Tim Lambesis arrested over murder plot )〕 it was announced in 2014, that ''Triple Brutal'' would be released on April 1, 2014, on Artery Recordings.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Artery Recordings has teamed up with... - Austrian Death Machine )〕 On May 16, 2014, Lambesis was sentenced to six years in prison, with 48 days credit for time served. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Austrian Death Machine」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
