\nScottsdale, Arizona (USA) metal act, AGE OF EVIL, will be supporting the first-ever U.S. shows for Hail! – which is comprised of such renowned names as Tim \u201cRipper\u201d Owens (singer, Judas Priest), Andreas Kisser
\n(guitarist, Sepultura), Dave Ellefson (bass, Megadeth\/F5), and Mike Portnoy (drums, Dream Theater). The shows will take place at B.B. Kings in New York City on Tuesday, January 26, 2010, and at Showcase Live in Foxborough, MA (just outside Boston) on Wednesday, January 27, 2010.

\n\u201cWe will tear your faces off,\u201d declares AOE guitarist Jordan Ziff about the group\u2019s kick-ass live show. \u201cAnd if not, it\u2019s a money back guarantee. Just kidding. But we give 150% every night we play. We are trying to rejuvenate good music into the metal scene and a certain rawness that everyone has seemed to have lost. You need to put your soul into your music.\u201d
\n
\nThe Scottsdale, Arizona-based Age of Evil, which in addition to Ziff, is comprised of singer\/rhythm guitarist Jeremy Goldberg, bassist Jacob Goldberg, and drummer Garrett Ziff, is riding high on wide spread
\nacclaim for their recent release, the six-track EP, \u2018Get Dead.\u2019 “Thanksto young Arizona rockers Age of Evil, the sounds of vintage metal are alive and well as we kick off the second decade of the 21st Century,” raves Andy Secher, Editor for Hit Parader Magazine. And if that wasn\u2019t enough acclaim, “Metal” Tim Henderson from BraveWords.com adds,”Youth Gone Wild! These school-yard bruisers are turning heads and taking vintage thrash to a new era of combat.\u201dAdditionally, Revolver Magazine picked Age of Evil as a ‘Band to Watch” in 2010, and \u2018Get Dead\u2019 was recently deemed a \u201cNew & Noteworthy Release\u201d for four weeks straight on iTunes. Quickly building up a solid following thanks to shows throughout the world – including European dates this past summer with the likes of Jon Oliva\u2019s Pain, Soulfly, Arch Enemy, and
\nManowar – the upcoming dates with Hail! will truly be a headbanger\u2019s delight. Judging from their rapid ascension, catch these young lads in an intimate setting while you still can!
