IRC-Galleria

Annihilator is considered by many to be the perfect example of an intelligent, sweaty, ever surprising metal act, having released a number of classics a la Alice In Hell, Never, Neverland, King Of The Kill, Carnival Diablos, Schizo Deluxe and others over the years. In April 2007, after a full year of writing and production, Annihilator will release Metal.
Metals ten new tracks were recorded by Jeff Waters (guitar, bass and lead vocals on one song), drum legend Mike Mangini and Dave Padden (long-time vocalist and touring guitarist/vocalist). Metal also features sensational performances by some of metals finest players and Annihilators good friends.


Jeff Waters on the straightforward and unambiguous album title, Metal: The new album reminds me of the first four Annihilator records. Its then tempting to think that Im looking back artistically, when the opposite happens to be the case. But its a fact that I composed the new material the same way I went about the early Annihilator tracks. This record combines many of the diverse styles you will find in metal music done our way. Annihilator Metal.



Metal will be released April 13 (SPV/Steamhammer Records).
