US tour

It’s been two years since the Austin, Texas heavy rockers decided to take a break, but The Sword are unsheathed once more: Two career-spanning collections will be released simultaneously, both showcasing the technically dazzling, riff-heavy and far-reaching metal that the band has been known for since forming 15 years ago.

The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus are announcing their rescheduled US tour dates that were postponed because of the recent nationwide closures around the Corona Virus outbreak.

Timed with the one-year anniversary of The Zombies’ induction into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame and 50 years to-the-day that their classic “Time of The Season' first hit #1 on the charts, the music legends announce The Invaders Return Tour.

Metal Blade Records is proud to welcome Vio-Lence to its worldwide roster!

Vio-Lence was born in 1985 in the womb of thrash metal’s inception: San Francisco’s East Bay Area. With a ferocious blend of blazing guitar riffs, relentless rhythm, and an ultra-aggressive vocal style, they have an intensity unmatched in metal.

After disbanding in late 1993, their music and legacy still drew metal-heads from around the world. Their return to live performances began in mid-April 2019 and they haven’t looked back.

Kansas, America’s legendary progressive rock band, will release their highly anticipated new studio album “The Absence of Presence” on June 26th, 2020.
