Killing Machine - Killing Machine/Metalmorphosis (CD)

Release Date: 10/09/20

KILLING MACHINE combine the classic metal feel of the past with the fresh aggression of the present.

Unashamedly wearing their heavy metal roots on their leather studded sleeves, KILLING MACHINE combine the classic metal feel of the past with the fresh aggression of the present. Thunderous bass lines, pounding drums and explosive riffs blend with distinct heavy, melodic vocals to create driving and memorable songs. The music that KILLING MACHINE brings to the party simply stuns - no pretentions - just pure metal entertainment!

During their career KILLING MACHINE have released two albums -'Killing Machine' and 'Metalmorphis'. 'Killing Machine' - the bands self titled debut album, was recorded with a pedigree line up of Mike Vescera (Yngwie Malmsteen / Loudness / Obsession) - Vocals, Peter Scheithauer (Belladonna) - Guitar, Mike Duda (WASP) - Bass Guitar and Stet Howland (WASP) - Drums. Released in 2000, this metal laden debut hinted at what the band were capable of.

The follow up, 'Metalmorphis', was released in 2006. Once again the album featured a stellar line up of James Rivera (Helstar / Vicious Rumours), Peter Scheithauer (Temple Of Brutality / Belladonna) - Guitar, Juan Garcia (Agent Steel) - Guitar, Dave Ellefson (Megadeth / Temple Of Brutality) - Bass Guitar and Jimmy DeGrasso (Y&T) - Drums. Hailed by the metal press, the album was a stunning success. It was described by Holland's' Lords of Metal Magazine as 'a mandatory purchase for anyone who really digs traditional heavy metal!'. It filled the void caused by the lack of classic albums at a time when metal was changing and major acts were struggling to deliver. The album won a place in the hearts of those who longed once again for a true metal masterpiece and cemented the bands reputation in the metal field.
