THE ALMIGHTY To Film UK Shows For Upcoming DVD

January 17, 2008

Commemorating 20 years of THE ALMIGHTY, the classic lineup of lead singer/rhythm guitarist Ricky Warwick, drummer Stumpy, lead guitarist Pete Friesen and bassist Floyd London has announced that various gigs on the band's upcoming 20th anniversary January 2008 UK tour will be filmed for a live DVD. The group is leaving the title of the DVD up to its fans.

Commenting on this major milestone in the band's career, Warwick notes, "This is the first official video release we've put out since 1991's 'Soul Destruction Live'. The band thought it was important to release something marking 20 years of the group. This is a piece for the fans and a piece for us to look back at a major part of our lives."

The DVD will be comprised of footage taken from multi-camera shoots from various shows on the UK tour, band and fan interviews, a fan photo gallery and various other archival and anecdotal material accumulated by the band over the years.

THE ALMIGHTY issued its first-ever comprehensive career retrospective, entitled "Anth'f**ing'ology (The Gospel According To...)", in CD/DVD format in February 2007 via Sanctuary/Castle. The set includes all of the band's thirteen UK singles plus bonus tracks taken from all of its seven studio albums to date. The DVD features all the promo videos for all the singles.
