Berserker / Evyltyde
Lithuania’s Berserker have announced a series of dates south of the border, and joining them will be London’s Evyltyde. Berserker’s sound features epic melodies, apocalyptic lyrics, strong and expressive vocals. Their debut album Dark Worlds Collide was released in early 2015.
Evyltyde have also just announced that they’ll be starting an old-skool mail-based fan club. For a regular fee, they’ll offer exclusive online content via their website and physical merchandise that you receive every quarter, including a cool looking printed Fanzine. Fan Club members get AAA access to Evyltyde shows and discounts on other shows as well.

Stone Broken
Breakthrough UK hard rockers, Stone Broken, have signed a multi-album worldwide deal with Italian based label, Frontiers Music, home of Frontiers Records. They were signed on the strength of their self-financed debut album All In Time.
Vocalist/guitarist, Rich Moss says:
Signing with such a prestigious label as Frontiers Music is a dream come true. It is a validation of all the hard work we have put in and a testimony to our ever increasing and loyal fan-base. We are now writing our second album which will be the first with Frontiers. Once again, we will be recording with award-winning producer, Romesh Dodangoda (Motörhead, Bullet For My Valentine, Bring Me The Horizon, etc) and can’t wait for you all to hear it. Then we are going to tour, tour, tour and play every goddamn town we can!
