Legendary amp maker and founder of Marshall Amplification Jim Marshall died last week at age 88.
It didn’t take long for a tremendous outpouring of condolences, thanks and memories to emerge from all corners of the music community, all in celebration of a man who truly changed the face of rock and roll.
One of the litany of artists who swore by Marshall’s amps, Slash, has released an official statement on the passing of the “Father of Loud.” It reads:
“I consider myself very fortunate to have known the late Jim Marshall. He was such a fantastic individual.
“Not only did he create the loudest, most effective, brilliant-sounding Rock & Roll amplifier ever designed, but he was a caring, hardworking family man who remained true to his integrity to the very end. His work ethic was unequaled and his passion unrivaled.”
“He took great care of me personally, as one of his loyal fans and Marshall Amp enthusiasts, ever since we first met in the early 90’s.”
“At that time, he did the unprecedented; he had the first-ever Artist Model Marshall series designed for me when my Marshall amps were destroyed in a Guns N Roses concert riot in St. Louis in 1991. We had been friends ever since.”
“Jim cared for all his customers like they were his family. He would do whatever it took to make sure an artist was completely satisfied and he made sure his staff did likewise. It was very important to him that Marshall quality and customer care was paramount.”
“Jim’s passing marks the end of a very loud and colorful era. From Pete Townshend to Kerry King, Marshall Amplifiers have been behind every great Rock & Roll guitarist since the beginning. Marshall Amplification is one of the most enduring, iconic brands of contemporary music history.”
“This industry will likely never see the likes of Jim again. But his legacy will live on forever.”

Napalm Death, “Leper Colony” (official album track).
Taken from their 14th studio album “Utilitarian” on Century Media, available Feb 27 (EU) or Feb 28 (USA), 2012.
Cover artwork is by the Danish artist Frode Sylthe, who was also responsible for The Haunted`s “Revolver” artwork.
On the band´s web site, singer Mark “Barney” Greenway explains about the album title and concept: “After some deliberation, we have decided on “Utilitarian” as the album title. We generally try to avoid generic titles, and this seemed to have a lot of scope to it. I won’t explain the full meaning of Utilitarianism here because it’s an ethical theory, and as ethical theories go, the depth and debate around it is quite heavy at times. It has a certain ‘morality’ aspect to it and that isn’t something that drives me, so I also certainly have issues with it. So, rather than just nail that straight to the mast, of course we wanted to put our own spin on it by suggesting that those (i.e. the utilitarian in us, perhaps) who try to challenge everything, or fight against conventions, well, we go through periods of real self-doubt where we wonder if we’re really making a difference. I suppose the conclusion is that, for the sake of all our freedoms, you should never stop, as even the feeling of resistance is at least a signal to those who would like to entirely control and dominate us – meaning everything from our instinctive behavior to our human entitlement to walk the earth unprovoked. Regarding the album overall, the final creases should be ironed out fairly soon, and immediately after that we thought it would be good to top it off with a few UK dates. We’ve been playing one new song (“Quarantined”) out on a tour of Canada and it’s been well received, so we hope to perhaps throw in another one for now. Either way, we’ll be bouncing off the walls again near you very soon. Cheers all.”
Napalm Death are already confirmed for the 2012 Wacken Open Air, Hellfest, Maryland Deathfest and many more.
The 7″ vinyl single “Analysis Paralysis” is also available for preorder and is strictly limited and hand-numbered to 1000 copies (500 in black vinyl, 300 in transparent and 200 in white), only available via the CMDistro web site.
