Cliff Evans, TANK’s guitarist, comments:
“We are very pleased to announce that we will be
continuing our successful relationship with Metal Mind Productions who will be
releasing our new studio album planned for March 2015. Since originally signing
with Metal Mind in 2009, they have released two of our best selling and most
critically acclaimed albums ‘War Machine’ and ‘War Nation’ and were instrumental
in the production of our very first official DVD ‘War Machine Live’. We enjoy
working with an established metal label that understands what needs to be done
to make a successful album release and we look forward to many more future
collaborations.
After our recent successful tour of Brazil, we’re excited
to be heading into the studio with our new band members to start creating and
laying down some serious metal tracks.
Joining Mick Tucker and myself on the new album will be
Vocalist ‘ZP Theart (Dragonforce), Drummer ‘Bobby Schottkowski’ (Sodom) and
Bassist ‘Barend Courbois’ (Blind Guardian). These guys are the ‘Big Guns’ who
will help to push the limits of Tank to a new level. Their pedigree speaks for
itself. We’ll soon be announcing the album title along with studio updates and
teasers.
We will also have the pleasure of playing songs from the
new album for the very first time at our performance on the ‘70,000 Tons of
Metal’ cruise in January 2015. European shows and festivals are now being
scheduled for the new year and we will also be returning to South America later
in 2015.
The Mighty TANK Rolls On!”
More details to be announced soon.
