And if this was not enough, we have also reached BIBLE OF THE DEVIL’s guitarist Nate Perry to ask a few questions regarding this new, punishing album:

“For the love of thugs and fools” seems to be a tribute to the eerie world of rock and rollers and metal heads. We certainly know that BOTD has hit the road enough to be able to tell us a thing or two about them. Why did you come up with such an album concept?
Nate Perry – There’s a saying among people who write: “write what you know.” On this album, most of these song lyrics stay away from anything fantasy-based, which is pretty typical in metal and something we’ve dabbled in as well. But generally, when we’re working on a record, the first song we finish tends to set the tone for the rest of the writing.

PHARAOH “Ten Years” CD EP on PRE-ORDER

Cruz Del Sur Music is proud to announce the opening of the pre-orders for PHARAOH’s “Ten Years” CD EP. The orders are already being shipped, while the official release date is set for the 10th of June 2011. It actually took a long time to get this EP out, but the wait has definitely been worth, as testified by the early press’ opinions collected so far:

The six songs on the Ten Years EP are a strong representation of just how excellent the musicianship of Pharaoh is.  Truth be told, I wish this was a 12 song album, Pharaoh hammers out their one-of-a-kind sound that well…[…] Pharaoh plays their American-made Power Metal with relevant muscularity, with melodic moments flourishing throughout their sound.  One Metal constant about Pharaoh is their ability to sound raw and tough, with an old school sensibility.” Metal Odissey Read more “PHARAOH “Ten Years” CD EP on PRE-ORDER”
