AGENT STEEL: New Song Featuring Singer RICK MYTHIASIN Posted Online
April 22, 2011"Tomb Of Ra", a brand new song from Californian metallers AGENT STEEL, can be streamed below. The track, which features lead vocalist Rick Mythiasin (STEEL PROPHET),was recorded and engineered by Bill Metoyer and mixed and mastered by Bernie Versailles.
AGENT STEEL recently canceled its reunion performance with singer John Cyriis at the 14th annual Keep It True festival — which is set to take place April 29-30, 2011 at Tauberfrankenhalle in Lauda-Königshofen, Germany. AGENT STEEL guitarist Juan Garcia subsequently released a statement in which he blasted "false rumors in the press" that Rick Mythiasin was the new singer of AGENT STEEL, insisting that Rick simply "filled in" for John Cyriis at the inaugural 70,000 Tons Of Metal cruise and "did a tremendous job."
He added, "When we reunited with original vocalist John Cyriis for Thrash Domination 2010 in Japan, our intention was that as long as things were moving in a positive working direction that we would forge ahead and perform reunion shows in 2011. As of now, we have reached the inevitable fork in the road; having worked unimaginably hard into making this recent reunion a solid reality, a difficult situation has turned much more complicated which has forced the cancellation of AGENT STEEL at the Keep It True festival in Germany this upcoming April.
"As a symbol of dedication to the fans, the music, and the AGENT STEEL legacy alike, we are excited to announce that the organizer of this festival has invited the band members to still perform, but under a different moniker, and singer Rick Mythiasin has been officially invited as the vocalist to join us onstage, once again, devastate all that witness."
Cyriis appeared on AGENT STEEL's first three releases — "Skeptics Apocalypse" (1985),"Mad Locust Rising" (1985) and "Unstoppable Force" (1987).
AGENT STEEL's fifth album, "Alienigma", was issued by Mascot Records on August 31, 2007.
