THE BEAST

METAL ALLEGIANCE began as a celebration of heavy metal, powered by the almost tribal bond shared between the extreme music community’s most revered trailblazers, armed with a list of contributors onstage (and off) that read like a Wikipedia entry on the genre itself. The band is proud to announce the release of their sophomore album 'Volume II - Power Drunk Majesty' via Nuclear Blast Entertainment on September 7th. The thrash worshiping album merges old-school legends with the modern metallers of the scene to produce groove driven, adrenaline soaked anthems while tackling the frustrating state of the world. The list of musicians for 'Volume II - Power Drunk Majesty' includes Trevor Strnad (THE BLACK DAHLIA MURDER), John Bush (ARMORED SAINT), Bobby "BLITZ" Ellsworth (OVERKILL), Mark Tornillo (ACCEPT), Max Cavalera (SOULFLY), Floor Jansen (NIGHTWISH), and Johan Hegg (AMON AMARTH), as well as marking the return of Mark Oseguesda (DEATH ANGEL) and Troy Sanders (MASTODON). Today, the band releases the first single 'Mother of Sin' featuring Bobby "BLITZ" Ellsworth (OVERKILL).
