Irish Thrash band Gama Bomb will release their fourth album 'The Terror Tapes' on April 19 in Europe and May 7 in the USA.
The cover for the follow-up to 2009's "Tales From The Grave In Space" was illustrated by veteran movie poster artist Graham Humphreys, who created pieces for classics 'A Nightmare On Elm Street' and 'Evil Dead'.
'The Terror Tapes' will be preceded by a single for the track 'Terrorscope', available both as a completely free download on March 26, with a vinyl release following in April.
"It was really important to us to give people some music for nothing," says vocalist Philly Byrne. "It's how we get our music and we want people to know we're cool with them doing that, as long as they support us. Support comes from a lot of different places, not just the front pocket."
About the album Byrne says: "I think this album's really going to shock people. We're not afraid to write brash, outrageous songs that will make people stand up and shout. There are some straight-up classics on this album and we can't wait for everyone to hear it."
He adds: "It's been a long road to bring 'The Terror Tapes' to life. I had throat surgery, Domo (Dixon, guitar) had a tendon injury, we changed our lineup, we recorded without a label, did it all the hard way. We worked hard and got through and made a great album which we're proud to be releasing with such great guys as AFM Records, who really believe in what we're doing. We've spent long enough in the shadows; now we’re ready to re-emerge."
