THE 69 EYES Schedules Berlin Listening Party, Meet-And-Greet

June 12, 2009

Finnish goth metallers THE 69 EYES have scheduled a listening party for their new album, "Back In Blood". Fans will get a chance to meet and greet guitarist Pasi Moilanen and drummer Jussi Heikki Tapio Vuori as well as rock out to the new tunes while having a beer or two with the guys on Sunday, June 28 at club Wild At Heart in Berlin, Germany beginning at 8:00 p.m. Guest tickets are limited to 50 and are available on a first-come, first-served basis.

THE 69 EYES will make an appearance in New York City tonight (Friday, June 12) at The Arrow in the East Village. The band's new album, "Back In Blood", will be spun in full, and the group will be mingling with fans, signing autographs, and taking photos.

Every Friday, east village bar The Arrow plays host to "Heavy Metal Happy Hour" from 6:00 to 9:00. With an eclectic cast of rotating DJs from the NYC metal scene, you're guaranteed to always hear some of the best in classic to modern metal, from IRON MAIDEN to ISIS — not to mention, 2 for 1 drinks.

The Arrow bar is located at 85 Avenue A between 5th & 6th streets, downstairs. Just look for the big yellow arrow.

THE 69 EYES will release "Back In Blood" in Europe (excluding Finland) on August 28 via Nuclear Blast Records. The CD, which was tracked with the Grammy-winning producer Matt Hyde (SLAYER, MONSTER MAGNET, FU MANCHU),features a guest appearance by MONSTER MAGNET's Ed Mundell. The recording process took place both in Helsinki and Los Angeles.

According to a press release, "THE 69 EYES return with their ninth studio album, which has been hailed a latter-day 'Appetite For Destruction'. With blood on their hands and AC/DC on their stereo, the bloodsuckers have combined their past to focus on the future. Turning their back on the comic-book glam of 'Angels', the EYES have opened a heavier chapter in their musical career. For the first time this decade, honorary sixth vampire Johnny Lee Michaels has been granted temporary leave from the batcave and Matt Hyde has been invited over the threshold.

"The first single will be the tongue-in-cheek 'Dead Girls Are Easy' — a nasty power anthem for sleazy pin-ups complete with a sing-a-long chorus aimed at those online chicks with the looks that kill! The video has been directed by MTV superstar and close friend Bam Margera and the artwork has been designed by Estevan Oriol, whose work has graced countless covers from CYPRESS HILL to THE TRANSPLANTS and SNOOP DOGG."
