GRAVE DIGGER – Whoa! Here’s a bounty of a Metal whoop-ass 4 city tour, arriving this October, in the grand Metal country of Germany! The ever legendary GRAVE DIGGER headlining the German Metal Attack, with Wizard, Paragon and Gun Barrel supporting! Metal be thy name!
GRAVE DIGGER – The 16th studio album, Clash Of The Gods, from Germany’s Metal Legends Grave Digger, will be released in the U.S. on September 11th, via Napalm Records. The reviews for Clash Of The Gods have been very positive, across the Metal media landscape. The album cover artwork is, as always with Grave Digger, incredible stuff! Metal be thy name.
GRAVE DIGGER – 2010 marks the 30th Anniversary of Grave Digger, further cementing their legendary Heavy, Speed and Power Metal status with the release of their 15th studio album – The Clans Will RiseAgain. This new studio album from Grave Digger has a U.S. release date of October 12th, on Napalm Records. * The European release date was October 1st, 2010.
Germany is the birthplace for many important Heavy Metal Bands over the decades, (ACCEPT, Scorpions, Helloween, Gamma Ray, Kreator and Edguy to name a many few), with Grave Digger bestowing their very own identity, brand and sound as well. You cannot discount Grave Digger, when the topic of German Heavy Metal Bands of influence comes up.
Axel Ritt has taken over all guitar duties as the newest member of Grave Digger on The Clans Will Rise Again. Guitarists Thilo Hermann and Manni Schmidt left Grave Digger, due to personal and musical differences, before entering the studio to record The Clans Will Rise Again.
There is no better time of the year than October, to have a brand new studio album released from Grave Digger! With the days growing shorter with sunlight and Halloween only a few weeks away, this new Grave Digger album will be a welcomed listen to my Metal scorched ears!
