BONDED BY BLOOD VOCALIST COMMENTS ON MASTERS OF DISASTER TOUR, THE CLOSING OF METAL MANIACS

BONDED BY BLOOD will be playing their first cross-country shows on the
Masters of Disaster tour. Alongside fellow thrash acts, EXMORTUS and
WITCHAVEN, BONDED BY BLOOD vocalist, Jose "Aladdin" Barrales looks to
take a little bit of the LA thrash scene to every town they play. As
the excitable frontman explains, "This is our first Full US tour and
we are really excited to play all over the US as more and more fans
seem to want us to play their hometown."

However as sweet as the tour is for each band on the bill, there is
always the inevitable sour. Metal Maniacs magazine, as has been
reported, has closed its doors. Before the esteemed metal institution
went out of business, they had lent their name as the main sponsor for
the tour. "Im honored and saddened that Metal Maniacs is sponsoring
this tour" says Jose, who elaborates his position. "I'm honored that
its a metal mag for metal fans that has always kept an eye out for
smaller bands and I'm saddened that they are closing their doors.
Thats one less mag of a scarce few there is that metal fan can get his
hands on."

Despite the bittersweet feelings that the closing of Metal Maniacs has
brought to the tour, all of the bands intend to keep the underground
spirit of the magazine alive by personally making sure that at each
show no head is left unbanged and each body has been throughly thrashed.
