LA Based Hardcore Legends STRIFE Recruit Iggor Cavalera To Play Drums On NEW Album!

Los Angeles based Hardcore band, Strife, will be heading down to Brazil next week to start recording their brand NEW, yet to be titled full-length record. The band has enlisted long time friend, Iggor Cavalera (Sepultura / Cavalera Conspiracy) to play drums on the forthcoming album. The album is being produced by Terror drummer Nick Jett (Take Offense, Lionheart), and will be recorded at Mix Nova Studios in Brazil, and finished at Blood Tracks Studio and Sunset Lodge in Los Angeles. Producer Matt Hyde (Hatebreed, Slayer) will be handling the mastering of the release.

Guitarist Andrew Kline said, “This album is going to be our best release yet… we have been working on pre-production tracks for the last few months, and the songs are amazing. This record is more along the lines of 'In This Defiance', but with a harder and a little more modern edge. Plus Iggor’s drumming is really going to take everything to the next level.”

A final release date, label, cover art and additional information will be revealed in the near future.

Colombian Metaleros HEADCRUSHER Unleash 'Let The Blood Run' - Album Stream Available!

Formed in early 2001 in Pereira, Colombia, South America. HEADCRUSHER’s blend of Thrash Metal, Death Metal and Hardcore climbed them to the top of the growing Colombian and South American Metal scene. HEADCRUSHER arrived in New York in 2007 and toured the East Coast. The Band relocated to Austin, Texas in the summer of 2008 and recorded their self titled EP in 2009. The tracks were mastered by Juan Urteaga (Exodus, Testament, Machine Head) at Trident Studios in Northern California, with the artwork designed by Alex Eckman-Lawn (Architects, Syopus, Hacride).

In March of 2011, they won the Road To Full Metal Texas contest held by Roadrunner Records and played at the SXSW showcase, sharing the stage with such bands as: The Red Chord, Upon a Burning Body, Kvelertak, Trap Them. During this legendary showcase, Rex Brown (ex-Pantera and Down, now in Kill Devil Hill) became an instant fan of HEADCRUSHER. Other fans of the band include Max Cavalera (ex-Sepultura, now in Soulfly and Cavalera Conspiracy) and Marc Rizzo (ex-Ill Niño, now in Soufly and Cavalera Conspiracy).

Yesterday, this Colombian Metaleros unleashed a ferocious album entitled 'Let The Blood Run'. In times when the tendency is to write Progressive Metal since it is the "flavor of the day", HEADCRUSHER have proved that Heavy Metal is all about speedy shredding sounds that pierce through your brain from front-to-back and side-to-side. The band is the go-to opening band in Austin, Texas (the bands adoptive city) when it comes to upscale Heavy Music concerts. HEADCRUSHER has shared stage with acts like Apocalyptica, Suicidal Tendencies, Cavalera Conspiracy, Lazarus A.D, Allegaeon, Motograter, Silent Civilian, Animal (Argentina), Confronto (Brazil), Koyi K Utho (Colombia), and Souledge (Colombia), among others.

Crank it up and share this head-crushing experience with all your friends.
