Raven - Rock Until You Drop - A Long Days Journey - promo cover pic

RAVEN – All For One – One For all… Solid As A Rock With Swords In The Air – The undisputed kings of Athletic Rock are back! Harder and stronger than ever. With their new DVD Rock Until You Drop – A Long Day’s Journey they show all non believers what real Metal is about. Screaming guitar riffs, pumping bass lines, exploding drums and a voice which is not from this earth!

It`s now 32 years ago since their first album “Rock Until You Drop” was released and during this time Raven definitely influenced a lot of bands. Who played their first tour at the east coast in the USA as support to Raven?: Metallica. Who played their first gigs ever as support to Raven?: Anthrax. The list goes on and on… ask Mille of Kreator or Tom Angelripper of Sodom..both will say that Raven was a big influence on their musical careers.

____________________________________
