The news about this tour from Anvil broke yesterday afternoon but I was not around to get it to you at that time so here we go with one of the first posts for this Christmas Eve 2014 🙂 – The Press Release, Dates and Thoughts follow the hot poster below. Scroll on Legions.
The Press Release:
“Legendary Canadian metal group Anvil announced this week they will embark on a tour of North America with Lord Dying and Sunlord beginning February 5th in Brooklyn, NY. Anvil have paved their own path throughout their 3 decade long career, revered by the likes of Metallica, Motorhead and Guns N Roses, the band has 15 studio albums under their belts, have gone on countless tours around the world, and even starred in their own award winning documentary Anvil! The Story of Anvil. The group’s latest album, Hope In Hell, is available in North America via The End Records.“

PiercingMetal Thoughts: As you regional readers can see, the tour starts off in our own beautiful Brooklyn and then it continues on for a whole lot of other areas that are guaranteed to bring you a dose of the necessary heavy. This is truly a great way to get your Metal 2015 underway. I’ve been a fan of these guys since the way back days and they surely deliver a good time on the stage. Fans can keep up with the bands activities via their Official Website which is linked below and should you be interested in adding more Metal to your music library, you will also find links to the remastered editions of their back catalog which The End Records delivered to us a couple of years ago.
