GAMA BOMB LAUNCH "STAMP OUT INFERIOR METAL" CAMPAIGN

Quick-witted Irish thrashers GAMA BOMB are gearing up for the start of their
THRASHING LIKE A MANIAC European Tour next week with LA shredders BONDED BY
BLOOD and new additions SWORN AMONGST, and have decided to offer something
back to the fans who come to the shows: redemption.

Singer PHILLY BYRNE explains: "The right to listen to neck-snapping
turbo-charged metal is under threat. Gloomy, posey, idiotic metal stands
between us and true enjoyment of thrash. We're all guilty of having bought
some rubbish, not-quite-up-to-the-mark "metal" records at some point in our
lives, but it's time to root out those embarrassing t-shirts and albums and
posters - because GAMA BOMB are offering YOU a chance to wipe the slate
clean."

Starting at their first show on September 12th in Germany and running
through each and every stop of the 10,000-mile, eleven-country tour, GAMA
BOMB invite and encourage you to bring along the worst of your music
collections - the embarrassing, the awkward and the downright rubbish CDs,
records and merchandise hidden amongst your better purchases - and to
collect them together so both you and GAMA BOMB can do what should have been
done long ago - ritually shred, stamp and smash the living hell out of them!

With the THRASHING LIKE A MANIAC tour drawing ever-nearer, it's time to
confess your sins! Grab your LINKIN PARK, LIMP BIZKIT and ORGY albums, and
any other nu-metal, emo or "inferior" metal you have stashed away and bring
them out to the THRASHING LIKE A MANIAC European tour with GAMA BOMB, BONDED
BY BLOOD and SWORN AMONGST, whereupon they will be ceremoniously smashed,
stamped on, frisbee'd and generally destroyed as part of the set, live
onstage.

To start the bandwagon rolling on the STAMP OUT INFERIOR METAL campaign,
EARACHE RECORDS will make a very special donation of 1,000 copies of
"PLANETS" by ADEMA to this worthy cause!
