We respect the credibility and reputation of this Festival, the organizer Datis Alaee, and the caliber of the Heavy Metal music and bands that have performed here throughout the years.

Band founder, guitarist and studio drummer Joe Kurland states: “It feels great to finally play a show outside of the Northeast and the timing is perfect to showcase songs from our new album, Empyrean Realms!

Grave Robber - promo live photo - 2013 - #6767

January 23, 2014  Cincinnati, Ohio – The Warriors of Metal, Inc. non-profit organization is very excited to announce that Fort Wayne, Indiana’s premier Horror Punk band GRAVE ROBBER has gladly accepted the unenviable challenge of being the “show closer” and final performer for the Pre-Fest Showcase of the Warriors Of Metal Fest VII, which will take place at O’Shecky’s LIVE Bar & Grill on Thursday, June 26 in Columbus, Ohio.

Vocalist Wretched states:  “We are honored and excited to have been invited by Datis to play the Warriors Of Metal Pre-fest and our second time on the O’Shecky’s stage. As a theatrical horror punk band, we have always had utmost respect for all things metal and have always included touches of metal in our artistic vision of horror. In fact, similar to The Misfits, we have found that quite a large percentage of our fanbase are straight up metalheads who hate punk, but somehow find common ground with Grave Robber and love what we do. We are greatly looking forward to playing way too loud, way too fast, way too aggressive and making some friends and comrades in aggressive musical endeavors. Thank you again, Datis from the bottom of our reanimated, undead hearts. Be afraid, be very afraid!”

Believe the hype with the official music video for GRAVE ROBBER’s “Altered States,” now playing below:

January 17, 2014  Cincinnati, Ohio – The Warriors of Metal, Inc. non-profit organization is excited to announce the confirmation of Maryland Power Metallers BURNING SHADOWS, whose awe-inspiring performance at 2012’s Pathfinder Metalfest V as a support band for the legendary Raven led to the Warriors Of Metal Fest organizer Datis Alaee to comment:

“I had known Burning Shadows for a while at that time since my friend Tim Regan had sent his band’s previous albums for air play on my Metal Messiah Radio show.  But making our annual pilgrimage from Ohio to Georgia to support our friend Hoyt Parris with the 5th edition of his Pathfinder Promotions’ Metalfest series, Burning Shadows was a definite not-to-be-missed band for me and boy did those guys deliver!!!  My neck was wrecked, my ass was kicked and my face was melted.  Big kudos to Hoyt for such an awesome booking!  After their performance I went over to my wife and said ‘We HAVE TO get these guys to our Fest!!!'”

We are grateful to battle alongside so many like-minded bands, organizers and fans. Datis has been a strong supporter of ours and we very much look forward to bringing our music to new audiences looking to help us prove that true metal is alive and well. Many of our favorite bands that we’ve shared the stage with have played this festival in years past and we’re excited about what’s in store for 2014.”

Cincinnati, Ohio – The Warriors of Metal, Inc. non-profit organization is excited to announce that after years of loyal support and attendance of our summer festival, the young Cincinnati, Ohio Thrash Metal band SPLIT THE ABYSS will be one of the featured bands during the Thursday, June 26th Pre-Fest Showcase of this year’s Warriors Of Metal Fest VII at O’Sheckys LIVE in Columbus, Ohio.  The entry fee for the Pre-Fest Showcase is only $10 at the door and music starts at 6:00 pm.

Check out To Die at the Wall off the band’s second full-length, With Savage Intent, which was released in November of last year, below:

Band drummer John Wood “Woody” Corsini Jr. states: “We are honored to be a part of 2014’s Warriors of Metal Fest VII. We’ve been in attendance at previous festivals and we’ve always had a great time at this event. It’s the best metal festival Ohio has to offer and one of the recent highlights for us included seeing two legendary bands in Helstar and Manilla Road at the 2012 edition of this show because for both of them it was the first time they had played in Ohio since the early to mid 1980s! And now to go from being patrons to performers, shows what a young band can accomplish if it is supportive of its local and regional shows. We’ll now be sharing the stage with so many bands from around the country and this will finally put us on a national scale. Be forewarned, we intend to be the heaviest band at Warriors of Metal Fest 2014.”
