PRIMAL FEAR Frontman Interviewed In Hollywood

June 10, 2010

Aniruddh "Andrew" Bansal of Metal Assault conducted an interview with vocalist Ralf Scheepers of the German power metallers PRIMAL FEAR on June 8, 2010 prior to the band's performance at the House of Blues in West Hollywood, California. Watch the chat below.

PRIMAL FEAR recently completed work on a brand new live DVD, "16.6 - All Over The World", recorded in various locations between September and November 2009, and a live CD, aptly titled "Live In The USA". Frontiers Records will release the two products separately and as a limited-edition combo on June 22 in the USA.

"The main part of the DVD was recorded in Switzerland at the Z7, but there is more footage from a headlining show held at the ProgPower festival in Atlanta, USA plus footage from Brazil, Sao Paulo; Tokyo and Osaka, Japan and more places," explains bassist and producer Mat Sinner. "That's why the DVD is named '16.6 - All Over The World' while the live CD is titled 'Live In The USA', because the live CD was recorded in Atlanta, New York and Los Angeles during the last tour that the we did across the ocean."

A preview of the DVD, featuring the song "Sign Of Fear", can be viewed at Metal-Hammer.de.

The DVD is filled with an abundance of extra materials, such as an entire bootleg section with funny moments on the road, bootleg footage from various festival appearances and other concerts, all of PRIMAL FEAR's most recent promotional videos, plus the making-of footage for "16.6" and a brand new interview section about the past, present and future of PRIMAL FEAR.
