Commented TOKYO BLADE guitarist Bryan Holland: "We started rehearsals today. All went very well for not playing for a while. Writing, of course, has also begun. Many, many great riffs are flowing... this album is gonna kill!! We plan on adding some songs to the setlist that have never been played live for the upcoming tour in October."
