GRAVE DIGGER: New Audio Interview With CHRIS BOLTENDAHL
August 31, 2012The Age Of Metal recently conducted an interview with vocalist Chris Boltendahl of German power metallers GRAVE DIGGER. You can now listen to the chat using the Mixcloud player below.
GRAVE DIGGER's new album, "Clash Of The Gods", will be released on August 31 in Europe and September 4 in North America via Napalm Records. A six-song mini-CD, "Home At Last", preceded the full-length effort on July 27 in Europe and August 7 in North America.
GRAVE DIGGER's new CD was recorded at Principal Studios in Münster, Germany. The band laid down at least 10 new original compositions as well as "a cover version of a male, 'not-heavy-metal' artist," which the group said "won't be another German 'Schlager' song... it will be 150 percent pure GRAVE DIGGER metal. Again we transferred the spirit of the '80s into the sound of 2012."
