MIGHTY TRIUMVIRATE - SLAYER, ANTHRAX AND DEATH ANGEL LAND IN AUSTIN THIS SATURDAY

Slayer

Slayer, with Special Guest Anthrax and Death Angel, will join forces this Saturday, October 8 in Austin at ACL at the Moody Theatre.

Anthrax

 Said Slayer's Kerry King, "It's always super fun for us to tour with Anthrax.  Frank is one of my best friends in the biz!!  Put that together with Death Angel, and fans will probably see the best package this year.  See you there!"

Fans will hear their favorite Slayer songs from the band's 30-year plus discography, as well as a few of the newer songs from Repentless, named "The Metal Album of the Year" by Guitar World.  Slayer and Anthrax stormed through Europe together last fall, amassing a string of sensational live reviews, so North American fans, this will be a night of metal music that should not be missed.

"We are very excited to tour again with our fellow Kings Slayer on a thrash/metal extravaganza," said Anthrax's Charlie Benante.  "Two of the Big Four - now that's a night of metal for all the Kings and Queens!"

Death Angel

Added Mark Osegueda from Death Angel, "We are thrilled and honored to be part of this amazing North American touring package.  Slayer/Anthrax/Death Angel - it just looks, sounds and feels right.  This will be Death Angel's first-ever tour with Slayer, something we've hungered for our entire career.  And we will bring that hunger to the stage every night, so get there early because this will be a show not to be missed; from the first note of the night until the very last! Metal is alive, hungry, thriving, and coming for you!"

GIGANTOUR - March 3, 2012
at ACL Live at the Moody Theater

Photos and Story by Sean Claes
Three Monsters of Hard Rock came through Austin, Texas on March 3, 2012 and set up shop at the Austin City Limits Live at the Moody Theater. Lacuna Coil, Volbeat and Megadeth entertained three stories of metalheads of all ages dressed in a sea of black shirts and smoke.

It was an awesome site for the place that hosted Gladys Knight just 24 hours earlier.

I've got to say, all three bands brought their A game. Maybe it was to make up for the fact that the legendary Motörhead, who was to play, had to cancel due to an illness in the band. But it's my suspicion that these bands bring it each and every night to the fans who eat it up like bacon on a Sunday morning.

LACUNA COIL

Italian Metal/Goth rockers Lacuna Coil was up first, playing the 6:45p set.

VOLBEAT

Danish Rockabilly/Metal outfit came up second, and I've got to admit, I'd never heard them before. I was impressed as they more than held their own in present company. Of course, doing a little research, they've been around for a dozen years, and add to the fact that their "stand-in" guitarist (after their guitarist, Thomas Bredahl, parted ways with them) is Mercyful Fate's Hank Shermann. Awesome set and I'm kicking myself for not knowing their music before walking into the show.

MEGADETH

Los Angeles' Megadeth confirmed their right to me the headliners of the evening and treated the crowd to their signature style of thrash metal, proving as long as you are good at what you do, you don't need to follow the latest trend, the Dave Mustane growl will suffice... as it has since 1983.
