Due out on June 3rd in Europe via Earache Records and on June 25th in the USA via Century Media\/Earache Records, The Devils Cut features artwork by Cameron Davis http:\/\/www.cdavisart.com<\/a>), who is known for his work as the lead character designer and illustrator for the Guitar Hero video game series.<\/p>\n

WHITE WIZZARD bassist and main-man JON LEON comments about \u201cStrike The Iron\u201d:<\/p>\n

\u201c\u2018Strike the Iron\u2019 is my favorite WHITE WIZZARD song I have ever written, along with \u2018The Sun Also Rises\u2019, which closes the new record. I am very proud of the arrangement. I had the verse melody in my head and chorus line before I even picked up the guitar and started writing it. It has stunning leads by Jake and Will, and Joseph interpreted the vocal melody fantastically and gave so much character to it. This song really exemplifies everything this line-up is capable of and everyone\u2019s talents really came through on it. It never lets up and we are very excited to get this one out there live\u2026I expect it to be our opening song for the next couple of years.\u201d<\/p>\n

Since their inception in 2007, Los Angeles\u2019 WHITE WIZZARD has stuck to their manifesto of delivering classic, denim-and-leather heavy metal to the masses. Following the triumphs and critical acclaim that accompanied their first two albums, Over The Top (2010) and Flying Tigers (2011), WHITE WIZZARD has now returned with a brand new slab of high-speed heavy metal for this summer. The band\u2019s main-man, Jon Leon, spent months crafting the nine songs that make up The Devils Cut before heading to the studio with a refreshed line-up of musicians to lay down the tracks. The man behind the distinctive vocal chords is Joseph Michael, ably backed up by the shredding might of Jake Dreyer and Will Wallner and the precision drumming of Giovanni Durst\u2013 making WHITE WIZZARD one of the most volatile forces in the US heavy metal movement!<\/p>\n
