NWOBHM legend John Gallagher of Raven returns to WVOX’s Metal Mayhem show in New York this Tuesday at 9:20 PM, EST, heard worldwide on WVOX.com and 1460 AM.
“So a true heavy metal icon comes back to Metal Mayhem this Tuesday… Raven lunatics we’re coming at you again!” rocks host Matthew O’Shaughnessy.
Raven are celebrating their 41st year as a band with the new album, ExtermiNation, which will be released in Scandinavia on April 22nd, in Germany on April 24th, in Europe on April 27th and in North America on April 28th as a digipak version (incl. 1 bonus track), 2LP gatefold green vinyl version and download through SPV/Steamhammer.
Check out the lyric video for the title track below:
Metal’s “three musketeers” have had an exciting 2014 – opening for Metallica (the band Raven took on their first tour back in 1983) in Sao Paulo in front of 70,000 fans, and completeing a 43 date headlining USA tour – not to mention completing their finest album to date – ExtermiNation “combines the melody/chaos/musicianship/lunacy that defines the band with songs that are simply the best they have done in decades,” according to a press release. Rivaling the “holy trinity” of those early albums, and again working with the engineering metal mastermind who is Kevin 131 (Walk Through Fire) – the band have taken their game to the next level..this may well be their 41st anniversary but these guys are only just getting started!
