Buat para pengguna windows XP, kadang kita bosen sama tampilan skin atau theme XP, pengen tampilannya berubah seperti windows vista tanpa harus merubah system anda menjadi windows vista, ada satu cara yaitu ganti saja theme atau skin nya biar terlihat windows vista. hal ini sudah saya lakukan karna saya juga bosen tampilan xp di rumah. mau ganti ke system vista rasanya berat, selain proses install nya yg males, komputer saya terasa lebih lambat kalo di install windows vista. caranya:

  1. Download UXtheme.dll untuk windows xp sp2 (karna win xp saya sudah sp 2).
  2. Download Replacer untuk mengcopy UXtheme.dll.
  3. eksekusi file replacer.cmd. muncul tampilan cmd MS-dos.
  4. cari file UXtheme.dll yg ada di C:\WINDOWS\system32\uxtheme.dll, lalu klik dan drag ke windows tampilan MS-DOS. tekan enter.

Ungu adalah grup musik Indonesia yang beranggotakan Pasha (penyanyi), Makki (bass), Enda (gitar), Oncy (gitar), dan Rowman (drum). Sampai tahun 2007 mereka telah menghasilkan 4 album dan 2 album mini.

Ungu terbentuk tahun 1996. Motor pembentuknya adalah Ekky (gitar) dan saat itu vokalisnya adalah Michael, sedangkan drum dipegang oleh Pasha Van derr Krabb. Tahun 1997, saat Ungu hendak manggung, Pasha Van derr Krabb 'menghilang' dan posisinya digantikan oleh Rowman. Enda yang sebelumnya adalah roadies-nya Ekky juga ikut bergabung dengan Ungu.

Tahun 2000, Ungu mulai mempersiapkan album pertama mereka, yang akhirnya dirilis 6 Juli 2002 bertajuk Laguku. Sebelumnya, Ungu ikut mengisi 2 lagu di album kompilasi Klik bersama Lakuna, Borneo, Piknik, dan Energy. Ke dua lagu tersebut adalah "Hasrat" dan "Bunga". Single pertama album ini, "Bayang Semu" menjadi ost. sinetron ABG (RCTI). Meski terbilang sukses, album ini baru mendapat Platinum Award setelah hampir 2 tahun album ini dirilis.

Saat hendak masuk dapur rekaman untuk album kedua, Ekky memutuskan keluar. Oncy yang saat itu baru keluar dari Funky Kopral dipilih untuk menggantikan Ekky. Album kedua Ungu Tempat Terindah dirilis Desember 2003. Album ini menjagokan "Karena Dia Kamu" sebagai single pertama dan "Suara Hati" dipilih sebagai single kedua. Baru empat bulan dirilis, penjualannya telah mencapai 80.000 (delapan puluh ribu) kopi. Jumlah yang cukup signifikan jika dibandingkan dengan album pertama yang 'telah' mendapatkan platinum (150.000 kopi) dalam hitungan waktu satu setengah tahun.[1]

Pada tahun 2005, Ungu menjadi salah satu artis yang berkolaborasi dengan Chrisye di album terbaru Chrisye, "Senyawa".

Album Melayang dirilis Desember 2005. Di albumnya yang ketiga dengan single "Demi Waktu", Ungu mendapat double platinum.[2] Dengan hits Demi Waktu mengantarkan Ungu jadi MTV Exclusive Artis di bulan Desember 2005. Gaung "Demi Waktu" merambah negeri Jiran, Malaysia. Empat perusahaan label berebut untuk mendapatkan hak edar di sana. SRC, perusahaan yang menaungi Siti Nurhaliza akhirnya keluar sebagai pemenang.[3]

Ungu mengeluarkan sebuah mini album untuk menyambut Ramadhan 1427 H bertajuk SurgaMu yang dirilis September 2006.[4] Hanya dalam tempo sepuluh hari sejak rilis mini album SurgaMu, telah terjual sebanyak 150 ribu keping.[5] Bahkan Wakil Presiden Yusuf Kalla memberi penghargaan 'Inspiring' atas album religi SurgaMu. Sayangnya, saat hendak menerima penghargaan di istana Wapres, Ungu yang mengenakan setelah jas yang dipadu celana jeans ditolak masuk ke dalam istana, dengan alasan pakaian yang tak sesuai dengan protokoler istana.[6]

Dalam Penghargaan MTV Indonesia 2006, Ungu masuk dalam 3 nominasi, yaitu Most Favorite Group/Band/Duo, Best Director "Demi Waktu" Abimael Gandy, dan Video of the Year "Demi Waktu".[7]

Ungu dengan dukungan "A Mild Live Productions" dan "Trinity Optima Productions" membuat buku biografi. Buku yang diberi judul "A Mild Live Ungu Book Magazine" itu diluncurkan pada Kamis, 10 Mei 2007, di Jakarta.[8] Dicetak sebanyak 40 ribu eksemplar, buku tersebut memuat biografi masing-masing personil, diskografi Ungu, foto-foto, dan bahkan chord lagu-lagu Ungu.[9]

Ungu juga sering terlibat dalam pembuatan album soundtrack. Ungu pernah menyumbangkan lagu untuk film Buruan Cium Gue yang dilarang edar. Ungu pun menyumbangkan 3 buah lagu untuk film Coklat Stroberi yakni dua lagu baru, "Disini Untukmu" dan "Sahabatku", serta mengikutkan lagu "Berjanjilah" dari album ketiga mereka Melayang.[10]

Dalam ajang "SCTV Music Awards 2007" di Balai Sidang Jakarta (JHCC), Ungu mendapat 4 kemenangan. Album SurgaMu yang diproduseri Trinity/Prosound membawa Ungu menjadi penerima penghargaan 'Album Religi', 'Lagu Paling Ngetop' dan 'Video Klip Paling Ngetop' untuk lagu "Andai Kutahu". Sedangkan Melayang dengan lagu andalan "Tercipta Untukmu" memenangkan kategori 'Album Pop Rock Duo/Grup'.[11]

Ungu kembali merilis album reguler keempatnya bertajuk Untukmu Selamanya. Album ini di-launching di empat negara sekaligus, yaitu 9 Agustus 2007 di Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, 10 Agustus 2007 di Singapura, 12 Agustus 2007 Hongkong dan puncaknya 15 Agustus 2007 di Jakarta, Indonesia. Lagu andalan dalam album ini antara lain, "Kekasih Gelapku", "Cinta dalam Hati", "Apalah Arti Cinta" dan "Ijinkan Aku".[12]

Menyambut Ramadhan 1428 H, Ungu merilis album religi lagi yang berbentuk mini album bertajuk Para Pencari-Mu. Dalam album ini Ungu berkolaborasi dengan ustad Jeffry Al Buchori.[13] Album ini hanya berisi lima lagu, yaitu "Para PencariMu", "Sembah Sujudku", "Surga Hati", "Sesungguhnya", dan "Tuhanku". Sebelum mini album ini dirilis, tiga dari lima lagu telah terpilih sebagai soundtrack sinetron religi yang tayang selama Bulan Ramadhan.[14]

Ungu kembali meraih penghargaan untuk kategori 'Band Ngetop' di ajang SCTV Awards 2007, yang berlangsung di JCC Senayan Jakarta, Jumat, 24 Agusutus 2007. Dalam ajang itu, Ungu berhasil menyisihkan grup band lainnya, seperti Ada Band, Peterpan, Radja, dan pendatang baru yang mendadak populer, Kangen Band. Pada tahun 2007, Ungu bersama Samsons dan Naff, dijuluki 'The Rising Star' band oleh penyelenggara konser musik akbar Soundrenaline, A Mild Live Productions dan Deteksi Productions, juga oleh raksasa label rekaman Musica Studio.[15]

[sunting] Kasus

Ketenaran, selain membawa penggemar yang banyak, juga menimbulkan dampak negatif. Seringkali konser Ungu 'memakan' korban. Saat konser di Mojokerto, Jawa Timur, 30 Maret 2006, puluhan wanita pingsan. Sembilan bulan kemudian, tepatnya 19 Desember 2006, konser "Popcoholic with Ungu" di Stadion Widya Mandala Krida, Kedungwuni, Pekalongan berakhir dengan kericuhan yang mengakibatkan 10 orang meninggal dunia dan enam lainnya luka serius karena terinjak-injak dan kekurangan oksigen ketika puluhan ribu orang berdesakan keluar usai menyaksikan konser mereka.[16]

[sunting] Kehidupan religius dan sosial

Selain mengeluarkan 2 album religi, pada pertengahan 2007, kelima personel Ungu bersama-sama menunaikan ibadah umroh untuk pertama kalinya.[17] Ungu pun berupaya menciptakan hubungan yang lebih intim dengan penggemarnya, dengan memberikan beasiswa kepada lima penggemar Ungu yang kurang mampu. [18]

Jonathan Lewis Seward, (born November 18, 1984), better known by his stage name Johnny Christ, is the bassist of the band Avenged Sevenfold. Johnny Christ was the fourth bassist to join Avenged Sevenfold in 2002 replacing former members Dameon Ash and Justin Sane. He grew up in Huntington Beach, California. Johnny is the younger brother of a schoolmate of Synyster Gates and recalls The Rev and Synyster picking on him as a child in high school. [1]

[hide]

[edit] Early years and Personal Life

Johnny Christ attended Marina High School in Huntington Beach, California. He proceeded through high school and eventually formally met M. Shadows, Zacky Vengeance, Synyster Gates, and The Rev (the latter of the two which he already knew from school) through his older brother. He is also friends with Zacky Vengeance's younger brother Matt Baker formerly from the band The Dear & Departed. He is dating Lacey Franklin. In May 2009 he participated in the Gumball 3000 Rally, driving coast to coast with the Fuel Girls.

[edit] Musical career

Johnny initially took a few weeks off from high school during his senior year to fill in for Avenged Sevenfold's previous bassist, Dameon Ash, during one of their tours. These few weeks would become permanent as Johnny dropped out of high school to become the band's current bassist.

When the band was practicing in M. Shadows's parent's garage, Johnny would walk down the street and tell them that their bassist was inadequate and that they should let him play with them instead. Johnny has known The Rev since he was in kindergarten.

His two biggest influences are Cliff Burton (now deceased bassist for Metallica) and Duff McKagan (the bassist from Velvet Revolver and formerly Guns N Roses). The person that inspired him the most to pick up a bass was Les Claypool, the bassist and vocalist from Primus.

His playing style varies by song. While he primarily finger picks, he also is adept with a pick for faster songs, such as Beast and the Harlot and Bat Country.

Johnny first recorded on their second album Waking the Fallen. He used to write only Johnny on his autographs until Zacky came up with the name 'Johnny Christ', and in All Excess he said, "That sounds... really ballsy. Everyone's gonna hate that, so... I should definitely go with that!" He resides in Huntington Beach, Orange County.

Brian Elwin Haner, Jr. (born July 7, 1981), better known by his stage name Synyster Gates or simply Syn or "Gates", is an American musician. He is the lead guitarist and backup vocalist for American hard rock/heavy metal band Avenged Sevenfold.

Contents

[hide]

[edit] Early

Haner went to Mayfair High School in Lakewood, California and also Ocean View High School in Huntington Beach, California.

Haner attended, but did not graduate from, the Musicians Institute in Hollywood as part of the GIT program, studying jazz guitar. Up until that time he was primarily self taught by watching music videos and reading books, which is surprising because his father was/is a songwriter and guitar player, having played with Frank Zappa during his career. After six or so months of being there, he got a phone call from The Rev (and the rest of the current line up of Avenged Sevenfold) asking him if he wanted to join the band as lead guitarist. Haner joined up with them rather than continuing his education and becoming a studio musician.

[edit] Avenged Sevenfold

Brian joined Avenged Sevenfold when he was 18 at the end of 1999, right before the recording of the band's first album, Sounding the Seventh Trumpet. He was featured on their EP, "Warmness on the Soul", and on the reissue of their first album. He also plays piano for the band on songs such as "Beast and the Harlot" and "Sidewinder", though a friend of the band, bassist Justin Meacham, played the piano on Warmness on the Soul.

In the Avenged Sevenfold DVD All Excess, to emphasize the seemingly random placing of names, Brian stated that his name was thought of on a drunken drive through the park with The Rev. His exact words were: "I am Synyster Gates, and I am awesome!"[1]

He has won numerous awards, including the "Young Shredder" award of the year in the Metal Hammer awards in 2006 and the "Guitarist of the Year" Award for Total Guitar Magazine in 2006, he also won "sexiest male" in 2008 kerrang awards.

[edit] Pinkly Smooth

Brian along with the band's drummer The Rev formerly played in an avant-garde metal band named Pinkly Smooth. They both however quit the band as they wished to concentrate full time on Avenged Sevenfold.

[edit] Personal life

Brian has two brothers, Brent and Johnny and a younger sister named McKenna. His father, Brian Haner Sr., is a musician and comedian known as "Guitar Guy", and is currently on tour with Jeff Dunham. Haner cites Django Reinhardt, Dimebag Darrell, Eddie Van Halen, Slash and John Petrucci as his favorite guitarists and major influences[citation needed]. In June 2008 Guitar World magazine interviewed Brian, reader Shawn Butterfield asked "You're one hell of a guitarist. But who do you really look up to?" to which he responded "Definitely Slash, the Ozzy guitar dudes, Alexi Laiho from Children of Bodom, Jimi Hendrix of course, Jimmy Page from Led Zeppelin, a lot man!".

[edit] Equipment

Brian is endorsed by Schecter Guitars as is Zacky Vengeance. Currently, his signature model is available in two different versions. The "Schecter Synyster Custom" which has the exact specifications of the guitar that he plays live (excluding the sustainic pick-up fitted models) and the more affordable "Schecter Synyster Standard" which offers lower quality pickups and tremolo system. Before the production of his signature model, he played guitars of various brands.

Here is a list of some of the guitars he used before the production of his signature model:

Brian has different variations of his signature model. The first black with silver stripes "Synyster Custom" that he played lacks the gothic "SYN" inlay and the "Deathbat" on the 12th fret, instead the "Deathbat" is located on the headstock. His other customs models that are not available to the public follow suits. Currently he plays the model which is available to the public that has the gothic "SYN" inlay and the "Deathbat" on the 12th fret. He also plays a white with gold stripes "Synyster Custom" usually during performances of "Dear God". This guitar is available to the public, but production was limited to only 100 models. Recently, one or two of his signature model that he uses live has a "Sustainiac Stealth Pro" sustanic humbucker pick-up fitted for its neck position which he would usually activate during his solo performance. It also can be heard during the solo of the band's cover of 'Paranoid' by Black Sabbath.

Here is a list of the different variations of his signature guitar:

  • Schecter Synyster Custom (Black with Silver Pin Stripes)
  • Schecter Synyster Custom (White with Gold Pin Stripes) - Only 100 made.
  • Schecter Synyster Standard (Black with Silver Pin Stripes) - Affordable version of "Synyster Custom"

The following guitars were made exclusively for Brian and are not available to the public. Much like the "First Synyster Custom", they lack gothic "SYN" inlay and the "Deathbat" on the 12th fret.

  • First Synyster Custom - As seen in the 2006 Graspop Metal Meeting
  • Rebel Flag Synyster Custom - As seen in the "Making of Avenged Sevenfold" video
  • American Flag Synyster Custom - As seen in the "Making of Avenged Sevenfold" video
  • German Flag Synyster Custom - Briefly seen in the "All Excess" video
  • Black with Red Stripes Synyster Custom - As seen in the "Beast and the Harlot" music video
  • Red with Black Stripes Synyster Custom - The rarest of all his guitars, never seen in public

[edit] Biography

In his youth, Shadows was notorious for his disorderly conduct and misbehavior. He was quoted as saying "I was in between a good kid and a terrible kid - I had a good heart, but a terrible attitude." He attended Huntington Beach High School and was expelled from his middle school in the eighth grade. As the band was just starting out, he was the darker kid of the band (hence the name "Shadows") but he also wanted to incorporate his name, Matt, into his stage name. Matt was reduced to "M" because it had a better ring when combined with his stage name and ever since he has been known as M. Shadows.[1].

[edit] Early

Matt used to play the piano before he began to sing in his first band, "Successful Failure". When he was growing up, he listened to a lot of punk rock such as H2O and The Misfits and got into the metal scene when his father bought him Appetite for Destruction by Guns N' Roses after he had seen them on MTV's Headbanger's Ball. [2]

In following years, Shadows formed a number of bands with Avenged Sevenfold's rhythm guitarist Zacky Vengeance. Zacky was previously a member of a punk group called 'MPA. Shadows was in a band called Successful Failure in which The Rev was slotted to play drums (but was admittedly too good).[3] While in this band he penned the song "Streets," which would later be recorded after Avenged Sevenfold was formed, and released on the first album, Sounding the Seventh Trumpet. The album was a mix of metalcore and Punk rock but also includes a softer, more ballad-like song (Warmness On The Soul).

[edit] Avenged Sevenfold

Shadows has stated that he feels a strong support for the troops serving the United States, having very close friends who are currently in service in Iraq. The song "M.I.A." ("Missing In Action") was reportedly written in tribute to these friends. The song "Gunslinger" from Avenged Sevenfold's self-titled album further expresses these feelings (though it was stated in the album's extra MVI that it's not just about troops - "It can be about anyone away from home, missing their families.") The song "Critical Acclaim" can be interpreted as an attack to those who criticize the soldiers fighting in Iraq. Shadows has made guest appearances on numerous albums by numerous different artists. He also produced The Confession's 2007 album, Requiem, which, according to an interview, was one of the first steps which led to Avenged Sevenfold self-producing their 2007 self-titled album.[citation needed]

[edit] Vocal style

In the band's debut album, Sounding the Seventh Trumpet, M. Shadows' vocals had a heavy metalcore influence and consisted mostly of screaming vocals and clean vocals. This style gradually decreased in later albums into more conventional clean singing and had been almost completely jettisoned (with the exception of backing introduction screams) by the release of City of Evil, the band's major label debut. Despite having admitted minor throat surgery this was not a cause for the change and in an interview on All Excess, manager Larry Jacobson states that Shadows had decided several years before the making of City of Evil that it would be an all singing album. He had made it clear to their producer, Mudrock, that the album they were working on at the time Waking the Fallen would be half singing and half screaming, and that the next would be all singing. In the past Shadows would sing on all parts of the songs during live performances, supporting the theory that he was no longer able to scream or growl. Perhaps becoming fed up with those claims, Shadows has resumed screaming again during live shows, this can be seen in the band's new live DVD "Live in the LBC & Diamonds in the Rough" In almost all of the songs in the DVD, he does a 5 to 7 second long scream, and does some screaming vocals for Second Heartbeat and Unholy Confessions. Some of Shadows' biggest musical influences are Metallica, Megadeth, Pantera, Queen and Guns N' Roses.
