AS I LAY DYING Singer's AUSTRIAN DEATH MACHINE: Song Posted Online

AUSTRIAN DEATH MACHINE, the side project of AS I LAY DYING singer Tim Lambesis, will release its debut album, "Total Brutal", on July 22 via Metal Blade Records. A track from the CD, "If It Bleeds, We Can Kill It", is available for streaming on the group's MySpace page.

According to Lambesis, AUSTRIAN DEATH MACHINE is "a tribute to the great Arnold [former actor and current California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger] movies. It is a band fronted by Ahhnold with music I wrote and recorded in my free time. But, most importantly, I had so much fun!"

He added, "Whenever a new band comes out I often hear it said, 'that's exactly what you'd expect from a heavy band.' I beg to differ. AUSTRIAN DEATH MACHINE is exactly what you should hear from a heavy band.

* A continuously fast paced tempo you can always circle pit to
* The obvious build up to a breakdown you'll know how to mosh to
* Classic sing alongs we to pile up and sing along with
* A guitar solo in every song

"And yes... I would never leave out the obvious key component. Clich vocals that sound really angry! None of this scary screaming with makeup or goofy lows that we can all make under our breath.

"Lastly, let move onto lyrical content. I heard plenty of metal bands steal lyrics from angry fourth graders that hate going to church or don't want to clean their rooms. Now it's time to steal lyrics from the great minds of Hollywood screen writers that at least made it to sixth grade. Don't miss listening to the hit track 'Rubber Baby Buggy Bumpers'.

"Bottom line, AUSTRIAN DEATH MACHINE is fast, pissed, brutal and every song has a guitar solo. You won't find fantasy lyrics or overly poetic personal jargon. There are only forcefully chanted, testosterone drive phrases that our sweet governor Arnold would approve of."
