The Sword unveil new music video – UK tour in May
aaamusic | On 02, Apr 2011
The third and final installment of the Warp Riders Trilogy has been released today by Texan metal warriors The Sword. ‘Night City’ was directed by Artificial Army and features Esteban Powell, best known for his role as Carl in the classic Dazed and Confused film.
The band are currently looking forward to touring the UK in May with the formidable skills of notorious intergalactic bounty drummer, Kevin Fender who joined the band last October when former drummer Trivett Wingo left the band for personal reasons. With Kevin now on board, The Sword will be touring the amazing Warp Riders album that was released in 2010 on Kemado Records. It’s The Sword’s first concept album, a science fiction maelstrom put to the storming, relentless riffage and pounding rhythms upon which the band has staked its reputation. It’s also their most flat-out, supercharged, adrenaline-pumping work yet, a chrome-plated war machine that lords over the blackened sky.
