Watch LAST IN LINE Perform In London

Fan-filmed video footage of LAST IN LINE‘s June 12 performance at O2 Academy Islington in London, England can be seen below.

LAST IN LINE‘s sophomore album, “II”, was released on February 22 via Frontiers Music Srl. As with 2016’s “Heavy Crown”, the new disc was produced by DOKKEN and FOREIGNER bassist Jeff Pilson.

LAST IN LINE was formed in 2012, when Vinny Appice, Jimmy Bain and Vivian Campbell — Ronnie James Dio‘s co-conspirators and co-writers on the “Holy Diver”, “Last In Line” and “Sacred Heart” albums — teamed up with esteemed vocalist Andrew Freeman. The debut album “Heavy Crown” was released in February 2016, landing at No. 1 on Billboard‘s Heatseekers chart. Initially, the release had been preceded by tragedy when bassist Jimmy Bain unexpectedly passed away at the age of 68 on January 23, 2016. LAST IN LINE, honoring what they knew would be Bain‘s wish to keep the band moving, brought in renowned bassist Phil Soussan (ex-OZZY OSBOURNE) and committed to sustained touring in support of the album, hitting festivals, headlining clubs, and sharing the stage with metal luminaries such as SAXON and MEGADETH.

In late 2017, the band gathered in Los Angeles to start the recording of the second album, which was produced by the bandmembers and Pilson. Having really jelled as a band while touring in support of the first disc, the songwriting came readily to the members. They’ve created a record that shows a big progression in sound, while immediately being recognizable as LAST IN LINE thanks to Appice‘s rhythms, thunderous bass from Soussan, amazing vocals from Freeman, and the roaring guitars of Campbell.
