To purchase The Dagger, please visit iTunes for a digital copy or CM Distro for the CD. While THE DAGGER cites legendary acts such as early IRON MAIDEN, DEEP PURPLE, JUDAS PRIEST and RAINBOW as influences, the band's new album is far more than just a tribute to the past. Containing ten tracks that combine outstanding songwriting skills with the untamable power of early 80's NWOBHM and the spirit of epic 70's rock, The Dagger is a fresh take on old school hard rock / heavy metal from a line-up comprised of members that are or have previously been involved in bands such as DISMEMBER, GRAVE and NECRONAUT. For a preview of the album, be sure to check out the video for "1978" (directed by Stefan Jansson of PE Production AB), plus the following singles: "Ahead Of You All", "Skygazer". An earlier version of the album track "Dark Cloud" (released on a 7" via High Roller Records in summer 2013) can be heard below. |
