SAVAGE MESSIAH ANNOUNCE UK MINI-TOUR

SAVAGE MESSIAH have confirmed dates for a UK mini-tour, which is due to kick off on October 29th at Sound Control in Manchester.

SAVAGE MESSIAH frontman DAVID SILVER comments:

"Seeing as we're going to be cooped up in the studio for pretty much all of this summer recording the follow-up to 'Plague of Conscience', we thought we'd organise a few dates before the end of the year.  Even though the new album won't be out until early 2014, we can't wait to get out and play new songs, and just generally live it up on the road!  So we hope you'll come out and join us for some drunken heavy metal madness!!!"

WHITE WIZZARD RELEASE NEW TRACK 'STRIKE THE IRON'

WHITE WIZZARD have released a brand new track online, ahead of the release of their upcoming new album, THE DEVILS CUT.

The new track, titled "Strike the Iron", is the second track on THE DEVILS CUT and follows the release of another new song, "Kings of the Highway", a few weeks ago.

WHITE WIZZARD bassist and mainman JON LEON comments:

"Strike the Iron is my favorite White Wizzard song I have ever written, along with The Sun Also Rises, which closes the new record.  I am very proud of the arrangement.  I had the verse melody in my head and chorus line before I even picked up the guitar and started writing it.  It has stunning leads by Jake and Will, and Joseph interpreted the vocal melody fantastically and gave so much character to it.  This song really exemplifies everything this line-up is capable of and everyone's talents really came through on it.  It never lets up and we are very excited to get this one out there live...  I expect it to be our opening song for the next couple of years."

Listen to "Strike the Iron" now at http://youtu.be/FnKnQ_EahYI

THE DEVILS CUT is due to be released on June 3rd in Europe on Earache Records, and on June 25th in the USA via Century Media/Earache Records.  The album features artwork by CAMERON DAVIS, who is known for his work as lead character designer and illustrator for the Guitar Hero video game series.

View the artwork for THE DEVILS CUT at http://bit.ly/12aoWoU

THE DEVILS CUT is available to pre-order now on CD, as well as limited edition coloured vinyl LP in the following quantities and colours:

100 - Stormchaser Clear
200 - Lightning White
300 - Regal Purple
400 - Black

Pre-order THE DEVILS CUT now on CD and LP from the Earache Webstore in Europe at http://bit.ly/a6kLfN or in North America at http://bit.ly/aHWjUL

Since their inception in 2007, Los Angeles' WHITE WIZZARD has stuck to their manifesto of delivering classic, denim-and-leather heavy metal to the masses. Following the triumphs and critical acclaim that accompanied their first two albums, OVER THE TOP (2010) and FLYING TIGERS (2011), WHITE WIZZARD has now returned with a brand new slab of high-speed heavy metal for this summer.  The band's main-man, Jon Leon, spent months crafting the nine songs that make up THE DEVILS CUT before heading to the studio with a refreshed line-up of musicians to lay down the tracks.  The man behind the distinctive vocal chords is Joseph Michael, ably backed up by the shredding might of Jake Dreyer and Will Wallner and the precision drumming of Giovanni Durst - making WHITE WIZZARD one of the most volatile forces in the US heavy metal movement!

The new NOCTURNUS vinyl pressing will be available in the following quantities and colours:

100 - Clear
200 - Green
300 - Purple
400 - Black

Fans are able to pledge now for the following options:

* Pledge £15 or more - choice of black or purple vinyl LP
* Pledge £18 or more - green vinyl LP
* Pledge £50 or more - clear vinyl signed by NOCTURNUS founding member and drummer MIKE BROWNING, plus a CDR copy of the album, a woven NOCTURNUS patch (9cm x 8cm), and a NOCTURNUS logo t-shirt in your choice of size
