Raven - Wiped Out 40Th Anniversary North American Tour (Trailer)

RAVEN are that rare thing in music, true originals – cut these guys with a razor and they will BLEED true heavy metal - a more intense live band does not exist on this planet! RAVEN released three of the most influential metal albums of the NWOBHM era (New Wave of British Heavy Metal) inspiring every band of that time and beyond. Without RAVEN you just would not have thrash/speed metal… after all, the band did give Metallica and Anthrax their first tours! Next year RAVEN are set to hit the road once more where they will be celebrating the 40th anniversary of their iconic record ‘Wiped Out’ and treating their fans by playing the album in full during each show. Founder member John Gallagher comments, “really looking forward to playing one of my personal fave Raven albums “Wiped Out” in its entirety on this upcoming U.S tour... there’s a few songs on the album we never got to ever play live so that’s gonna be a blast!!!!” Joining RAVEN on their US tour are Riot Act, who will perform Riot repertoire from their classic era (1977-1982). In a cynical musical landscape these days, where bands are not “Gangs” but faceless corporations, RAVEN are a band that are REAL not FAKE – and proud of it!
