FFO: Metal Church, Accept, Helloween
To
celebrate the 35th discographic anniversary of the Band and the
forthcoming 40th since its formation, Music for the Masses has the honor
to announce the agreement with legendary Italian metallers Skanners for
the release of their first Greatest Hits which goes through the Band’s
whole career. Skanners are with no doubt one of the most important and
representative bands of Italian Heavy Metal, one of the few deserving
the definition of “Legendary”. Kicking off back in 1982 and debuting in
1986 with “Dirty Armada”, released for a Major Label, the then very
active CGD, which also released the following “Pictures of War” in 1988,
the Band has ever since kept up its identity and dignity, always far
from trend-following and staying true to its Metal Belief, supported by
great composition and talent, together with Claudio Pisoni’s voice.
These have always been the trademarks of the Band. The Greatest hits,
produced by Music for the Masses is scheduled for release on October
22nd on cd format and features 16 tracks drawn from the entire rich
Band’s repertoire, tracing an actual musical biography which will
satisfy die hard fans but will also be able to attract new listeners to
their musical craft. And, for this special release, a new, unreleased
song entitled “Under the Grave” will be on the album.
The
album will be distributed by Egea Music (Italy), Code 7 (Europe),
Sleaszy Rider Records (USA), Wormholedeath Japan and Music for the
Masses Distro. In addition, it will be available on all digital
platforms. The promotion will be taken care by Grand Sounds (Europe),
Metal Devastation PR (USA), Mazzarella Press Office (Italy) and
Wormholedeath (Japan).
