Los Angeles metal act, Attack Of The Rising has premiered a covid mini-concert that was recorded at their rehearsal studio over the summer.
The show runs half an hour long and features songs from their debut album Game Changer that’s out now on Weapon Records/Vanity Music Group. It is intercut with short interview segments and has been featured at Canadian website Metal Rules.
“Rob Hill came to us with the idea of filming a live stream in a format similar to an unnamed famous TV show at his studio (X-Music Studios), and as we were all familiar with that show, we loved the idea and agreed to do it,” recalled guitarist, Billy Sablan. “It was a cool way to get in some time to play, to tell the story of the band’s origins and how this line-up came together,”
Tony Lepre, Attack Of The Rising’s co-founder and the band’s other guitarist said, “This is still a challenging time. We’re looking at what we can do to stay somewhat active and since we can’t play live, a ‘Covid Concert’ and other content is one way to get your name out in the public.”
Game Changer is the band’s debut full length album, released this past summer and produced and engineered by Bill Metoyer (Slayer, Flotsam & Jetsam, Trouble, Armored Saint, etc). It reflects the band’s collective musical influences, that range from NWOBHM to the New York/New Jersey early 80s metal scene, across the country to the legendary Bay Area thrash heroes of the time.
You can purchase Game Changer right here. and it can also streamed on Spotify.
