About This Item
2017 . Following the mini-album Damned Unto Death, a collaboration between Evo (headmaster of metal punk crossover merchants Warfare) and Algy Ward (leader of the original Tank as well as temporary member of punk legends The Damned and The Saints), Evo returns with a full-length 11-track album entitled Warfare. The title of the album refers to the legendary band he formed in 1984 - along with The Blood and Merseyside's Mayhem one of the first true blue British metal punk crossover outfits in music history! InchIt's Warfare 25 years on, I know fans have waited a long time but this will never disappoint,Inch comments Evo on the new record (he's playing bass, guitar, drums, keyboards and sings on it). InchImagine the first four Warfare albums with today's production, very deep lyrics and riffs made of extreme filth and Marshall power. Anarchy at it's finest! I have come back after 25 years to kick your teeth out, what does that tell you?Inch Although Evo has played all instruments on the album himself, a few guest musicians have helped the maestro. Lips of Anvil is one of them InchLips is a very underrated guitarist (F**k Eddie Van Halen and Ritchie Blackmore), he plays like he is on fire on a song called 'This Man Bleeds Hate'. Lips played live with me in the studio at Newcastle when Anvil came to town.Inch Fast Eddie Clarke of Motörhead fame is an old mate of the almighty Evo as well InchEd plays on 'Misanthropy', which is probably the heaviest stuff he's played on since back in the Motörhead days, it's sounding like 'Bomber' meeting 'Electric Mayhem' in a sewer with more power! Ed is probably one of the best guitarists in the world!Inch Critics did give Damned Unto Death a pretty hard time, but in true punk fashion the man Evo could not care less InchThe mini-album was never supposed to be Warfare or Tank. People didn't get that both myself and Algy were just jamm
