ROXXCALIBUR – ALBUM NO. 4 IN THE MAKING!

…THE RETURN OF „PERMANENT GARAGE DAYS“ (and not just „revisited“)

Quote from the band:
„Yes, it seemed impossible some months back. Our last album „Gems Of The NWOBHM“ was released in 2015. …

When we started, we had underground songs on our first album, like „Seven Days Of Splendour“ from Jameson Raid or „Rainbow Warrior“ from Bleak House. Many of these bands have been reissued on great labels like High Roller, No Remorse or Cult Metal Classics and some of those bands are active again. The once „unknown“ NWOBHM songs from rare 7″ singles and albums are now bigger than ever (not just because of us!!). … We always wanted to surprise people with great songs that only a few people know (or remember). This still is our aim, so we have to dig way deeper than usual to make Roxxcalibur album number 4 as relevant as the three albums before. We are on a good way here, still chosing tracks right now! Here and there we might do some more changes to the songs than usual when the original is more AOR or punk…let’s see!

Beside that nothing has changed! Same line-up as on „Gems…“ and the same label (Limb Music). No modern studio production but an authentic in-your-face sound. Same attitude, same fun!

There’s a lot of NWOBHM-people who we met and who are not with us anymore. This album will be dedicated to all of them, including Mr. Tsangarides who did our second album.“

ROXXCALIBUR – Gems Of The NWOBHM

The „gold diggers“ are back. Their third album, „Gems Of The NWOBHM“ is definitely no obscurity for people in the know. Even though the majority of worldwide metal fans may not be familiar with all of the selected songs in their original form, it remains an incredibly good metal CD, which, although it has the spirit of the early Eighties within it, is still made for the here and now. Liner notes by author and NWOBHM expert John Tucker („Neat & Tidy – The Story of Neat Records“, „Suzie Smiled“ etc.). Cover artwork by Rodney Matthews (Diamond Head, Praying Mantis, Tygers Of Pan Tang, Bitches Sin, Magnum, Nazareth etc.). Mastered by Eroc, known not only for his role as drummer of the Krautrock legends Grobschnitt but also as studio man for his remastering of classics of the Sixties and Seventies.

The album includes the CD only track „Rip Off“ and comes in a slipcase including a sticker and a poster.

ROXXCALIBUR: Release date set for new album „Lords Of The NWOBHM“

The long-awaited, second album from Roxxcalibur, „Lords Of The NWOBHM“ is already causing something of a stir. Even only months after the release of their debut album, „NWOBHM For Muthas“ (April 2009) the fans were demanding another dose in the form of a CD. But the „Keepers of the Grail of NWOBHM“ weren’t prepared to rush things. „To pick the right songs which also suit us as musicians, from a pool of first-class NWOBHM pearls, needs just as much time as it does to write our own songs“, explains singer Alexx Stahl. The band had planned to demonstrate an even wider view and more extreme selection of the New Wave of British Heavy Metal on „Lords Of The NWOBHM“ than they did on their debut. „The finished CD shouldn’t just sound like the output of a coverband but should be as though it had come from one balanced mould.“.
