The End Records, home to the likes of Anvil, Danzig and Mindless Self Indulgence, are proud to announce the release of ‘Now Here’s Your Secret’ by UK-based metal act Belligerence.
Vocalist Tim Brock says: “We’re very excited to be working with The End Records, their roster speaks for itself. For a US label to put its faith in a UK band based purely on the quality of their music is deeply reassuring in what are testing times for the industry. We hope this is the beginning of a fruitful partnership.”
Originally formed in 2008 by Tim Brock (Vocals) and David Harvey (Guitar), Belligerence added the talents of Craig Copland (Bass) and Lee Barrett (Drums) vowing from the outset that they’d be kicking ass and taking names. They immediately made a stir with their unique approach to metal, combining a heavy groove-oriented riffing of bands like Lamb Of God with the overtly aggressive blues sensibilities of Down and more modern rock approach of Life Of Agony. Metal Hammer, Rock Sound, Big Cheese and PowerPlay were all quick to pick up on ‘Remember Who Put You There’, delivering rave reviews while tracks got played on the Radio 1 Rock Show and Tom Robinson Introduces on Radio 6. This earned them spots on Hammerfest, Hard Rock Hell and Download Festival and the excitement surrounding the band has continued growing ever since.
Produced by Justin Hill (SikTh, Smoking Hearts, Rise To Remain, Malefice) ‘Now Here’s Your Secret’ and the anthemic first track ‘Martyrs’, has already gained a buzz as a sure-fire hit maker and showcases a band with renewed confidence, one that’s found their own unique voice in the often over-saturated world of metal.
‘Now Here’s Your Secret’ will be released on the 19th June 2012.
