SHATTER MESSIAH: Debut Album To Receive U.S. Release This Week

April 23, 2007

On April 24, 2007, DCA Recordings will release the critically acclaimed debut album by SHATTER MESSIAH, "Never to Play the Servant". The CD was released last year in Europe, and had only been available as an import outside the continent. Now metal fans in North America will be able to experience SHATTER MESSIAH's viciously intense mixture of hardcore, classic thrash, power metal, and goth. "Never To Play The Servant"'s 14 tracks teem with this lethal combination of over the top aggression and melodic skill, resulting in such stand-out tracks as "Crucify Freedom", "Frailty", and the blistering title track.

SHATTER MESSIAH is led by guitarist Curran Murphy (ex-NEVERMORE, ANNIHILATOR),and features vocalist Greg Wagner (H.A.T.E., ex-BREAKER, ARCHETYPE),drummer Robert Falzano (ex-ANNIHILATOR),and guitarist Dusty Holt.

In June the band will embark on a North American tour as direct support to Finnish goth metal band TO/DIE/FOR. Also on the bill will be Australia's VIRGIN BLACK (The End Records) and Metal Blade recording artists EPICUREAN. Confirmed dates are as follows:
