BRIDES OF DESTRUCTION Guitarist: Debut Album Doing Brisk Business In Japan

January 8, 2004

BRIDES OF DESTRUCTION guitarist Tracii Guns (L.A. GUNS) has revealed in an online posting that the group's debut album, "Here Come The Brides", has sold 12,000 copies in its first week of release in Japan (where it came out through Universal Records on December 25). "That is about what the last L.A. GUNS record sold in the whole of a years time in the U.S.," he writes. "Pretty cool, huh???? I AM STOKED!!"

As previously reported, "Here Come The Brides" will receive a U.S. release on March 9 through Sanctuary Records via bassist Nikki Sixx's (MÖTLEY CRÜE) company 12-11 Productions. The band's lineup is rounded out by vocalist London LeGrand and drummer Scot Coogan (ex-PAUL GILBERT, ONI LOGAN/ROWAN ROBERTSON, SINÉAD O'CONNOR).

BRIDES OF DESTRUCTION's song "Shut the Fuck Up" (e-card) is the lead-off track on the Drew Stone-produced/directed (BIOHAZARD, TYPE O NEGATIVE, KING'S X, AGNOSTIC FRONT) film "Death Or Glory", a documentary about the illegal car culture world of America which is being released by Dreamworks on Feb. 1. Other groups featured on the film's soundtrack include BLEED THE DREAM, GARTH VADER and THE ROAD KINGS. Talks are also underway for Stone to direct the music video for "Shut The Fuck Up".
