SPIRALARMS To Play Three California Shows This Month

SPIRALARMS, the San Francisco Bay Area-based band featuring Craig Locicero (FORBIDDEN, ex-MANMADEGOD) on guitar, Tim Narducci (ex-SYSTEMATIC) on vocals, Chris "Cornbread" Lombardo on bass, and Brad Barth on keyboards, has scheduled the following dates:

Nov. 06 - Modesto Virtual - Modesto, California
Nov. 07 - Time Out - Concord, California
Nov. 20 - The Blue Lagoon - Santa Cruz, California

Commented Locicero: "I want to invite anyone who's even remotely close to SPIRALARMS first two Bay Area gigs in a long, long time, to get off your collective asses and be a part of something special.

"A lot of crazy things happened to us in the last couple of years. Tim and Cornbread made a record and toured the U.S. with WHITE WITCH CANYON, twice. I've been getting my metal on and have toured Europe, the States and Japan with FORBIDDEN. Brad has been gettin' his shit kickers out jamming with PAUL TOLLE AND THE DEAD MAN BAND. We have two new members in Greg Narducci (sound like somebody's bro?) on rhythm guitar and Ron Redeen [who has previously played with THE ESSENESS PROJECT, the band featuring former NEVERMORE/TESTAMENT and current FORBIDDEN guitarist Steve Smyth] on drums. And we almost tumbled out of existence before we took a good look at what we had. Something we believe to be very cool.

"We've been working very hard and put ourselves back together stronger than ever!

"SPIRAL is almost done with the recording process of our first full-length record, 'Highest Society'. It is, simply, a motherfucker! The record that Tim and I have been trying to make since we started playing together in 2004. Just too many bumps in the road to ever get done properly, until now. This is our baby. More straight-ahead and raw then anything recorded previously by the band. And there was some really great stuff in that catalogue of material. But we've moved on from those early days and refined our sound.

"So, back to the dirty, dank, beer- and vomit-stenched clubs for us! Maybe it's not the dream setting for us and our arena rock hooks, but we've gotta re-start it up all over again just like this. Playing in front of human beings with a heartbeat and soul will be massively gratifying! In other words, we couldn't be happier!"

"Highest Society" will be released through Luxury Buzz, the new label started by Narducci and Barth. Songtitles set to appear on the CD include "Blood And Wine", "Later On", "Live Another Day", "Scorpio", "Sleep Of The Just", "Silver Sky", "All That You Seek", "Dirty Bomb" and "Got It All Wrong".
