Metal On Metal Records is proud announce that the legendary US Power/Thrash Metal act HERETIC has joined its roster.
The band, formed in 1985 in Los Angeles, CA, released an EP "Torture Knows No Boundary" (1986) and a full-length "Breaking Point" (1988) through Metal Blade Records before disbanding. Later on the founding member, songwriter and guitarist Brian Korban together with bassist Dennis O’Hara formed REVEREND, which featured the vocal talents of the late David Wayne (METAL CHURCH).
In 2011 Brian Korban reformed the band, recruiting Julian Mendez, the vocalist who sang on the band’s first EP. Soon they were joined by the seasoned musicians, long-time friends and collaborators, guitarist Glenn Rogers (VIKING, ex-HIRAX, ex-DELIVERANCE, ex-STEEL VENGEANCE and others) and bassist Angelo Espino (BITCH, ex-REVEREND, ex-HIRAX, ex-ANGER AS ART, ex-UNCLE SLAM and others) and a young, but talented drummer Ignazio Coppola.
This line-up has already played several shows and started recording the new album "A Time Of Crisis", which at this point is almost complete and scheduled for July 26th release. The final recording sessions with producer John Anthony Haddad (known for his work with HIRAX) at the Trench Studios are scheduled for May 26th-28th.
Metal On Metal Records states: "It’s not uncommon that reunions of once great bands from the ’80s turn into disappointments, but after hearing several songs from this upcoming album we are confident that it will be one strong and exciting come back (in spite of the lack of Mike Howe who sang on the band’s ’88 LP and who has retired from the music business)."
You can get a pre-taste of the things to come listening to the two new HERETIC songs from Metal On Metal Records YouTube channel: "Remains" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i7sn943mNfM) and "Police State" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xtixdy-aa2g).
