ANGER AS ART Mainman Promises 'Heavier, Faster' New Album

September 9, 2008

Steve Gaines of the Los Angeles-based thrash metal band ANGER AS ART has issued the following update:

"Looking at the calendar, exactly one year ago today we were finishing up a run through the Mountain time zone with headlining date in Salt Lake City. Little did we know that it would be Mars' [Marce Castro; drums] last show, but shortly afterwards Dave Chedrick came into the fold and started to push us a little angrier. Enter Angelo Espino [bass], and a lot heavier. Supporting TESTAMENT, LAAZ ROCKIT, and AGENT STEEL (yes, again — but we love them — they are family),two more West Coast runs, one run to the Midwest, and even over to Europe, a last show in Los Angeles — and now it is over. Here we sit exactly one year later wondering where the hell the time went — and honestly, we aren't even the busiest band out there.

"As I type this, I reflect on the four-year history of ANGER AS ART — specifically all of the people who tried to keep this band from happening. And it is not like there was a vendetta, rather people offering opinions and judgements like how this was never going to do anything! Standing in record stores in Europe seeing ANGER AS ART CDs in the racks... what a feeling. More is to come! Now, can I download an MP3 of your demo for free?

"It isn't all roses — there have been many trials this past year. All of us have been able to channel all of the rage, hate, anger and disappointment into our writing — and as we go through our demos for the next and third ANGER AS ART album, I can assure you that the next offering from us will be exactly what you would expect — only heavier, faster, and with more vitriol.... I am hesitant to say more than that — other than we never forget who we do this for. Thanks for supporting, and we will be tracking the next album very soon."
