DEATH DEALER, the band featuring MANOWAR and the DICTATORS guitarist Ross “The Boss” Friedman alongside vocalist Sean Peck (CAGE), guitarist Stu Marshall (producer and guitarist for such voices as Udo Dirkschneider and Steve Grimmett), bassist Mike Davis (HALFORD, LIZZY BORDEN), and drummer Steve Bolognese (INTO ETERNITY), will release its sophomore album, “Hallowed Ground”, on September 11 via SMG Records. The 13-track CD was mixed and mastered by Stu Marshall at Frontier Studios in Sydney, Australia, and contains “massively epic orchestrations, speed metal anthems, and singalong headbangers,” accoding to a press release.

DEATH DEALER will hit the road this summer for a string of European dates. Available at these shows — which will run from July 16 through August 2 — will be a “Death Dealer Limited Edition Metal Tour Package”, which will contain the following items (housed in a custom printed tin container):

* “Warmaster” CD
* Limited-edition T-Shirt (L, XL)
* Patch
* Download card with three new DEATH DEALER songs (“Break The Silence”, “Plan Of Attack” and “The Anthem”) from the forthcoming “Hallowed Ground” album

The new DEATH DEALER song “Plan Of Attack” can be streamed below.

DEATH DEALER‘s debut album, “War Master”, was released in August 2013 through Steel Cartel Records.

“The DEATH DEALER sound is a mighty combination of five very talented, seasoned musicians,” explained Ross. “It’s classic power metal with the brutal edge of thrash, speed, and precision.”

DEATH DEALER in 2013 parted ways with drummer Kenny “Rhino” Earl (MANOWAR) and replaced him with Bolognese.

A former drummer for INTO ETERNITY and a Berklee College Of Music instructor, Bolognese is often spoken of as “the drummer’s drummer,” having received mentoring from drum prodigy Mike Mangini (DREAM THEATER).
