LILLIAN AXE – signs worldwide deal with
BLISTERING RECORDS

Blistering
Records is proud to announce the worldwide signing of U.S. hard
rock legends LILLIAN AXE.


Derrick,
Eric, Ken, Sam & Steve are so excited about joining the
Blistering Records roster of artists and look forward to a long,
successful venture recording their music for the
label.




While
searching for a new label over the past year, Lillian Axe was
looking for a record company who respected their past, but more
importantly wanted the band to be part of their present and
future. Blistering Records proved to be the most aggressive
suitor for Lillian Axe making the decision an easy one. The
Axe men were equally thrilled to become the flagship artist with
this fast rising international company who already boasts releases
from melodic rock heroes like Joe Lynn Turner, Glenn Hughes, Jorn
& House Of Lords!




Lillian
Axe, having re-established themselves in 2007 & 2008, look
forward to 2009 as the year of The Axe! They will embark on a
world tour this June in support of their new CD, Sad Day On
Planet Earth. The ambitious 12 month trek will take
them across the United States, Canada, Europe & Japan. Every
city & every festival that wants Lillian Axe shall have
them!




Although,
Lillian Axe never forgets its glorious past, their sound is
very modern. Musically speaking, Sad Day On
Planet Earth is by far their strongest album. With
a rare balance of continuity & variety showcasing their
veteran song writing chops, radio formats from Active
to Mainstream & Loud Rock will find something to
love on this amazing record. Fourteen tracks of pure
Lillian Axe to rock the music world out of it's collective
slumber!




The songs
that will be appearing on Sad Day On Planet Earth were
written by main Axe man Steve Blaze & include:
Megaslowfade, Ignite, Divine, Down Below The Ocean, Jesus Wept,
Within Your Reach, Sad Day On Planet Earth, Fire Blood The Earth
& Sea, The Grand Scale Of Finality, Cold Day In Hell, Blood
Raining Down On Her Wings, Hibernate, Kill Me Again &
Nocturnal Symphony.




The album
artwork is being created by Peter Tsakiris, a major force in the
industry who has created covers for Dio, Twisted Sister, Deep
Purple, Ted Nugent, Overkill, Jackyl & Warrior Soul to name a
few!




Lillian
Axe sends heartfelt thanks the rock music community for
the opportunity to continue making the music they have
believed in their entire career & look forward to doing
so for many years to come!




Keep an
eye out for more news on Lillian Axe as we get closer to the birth
of Sad Day On Planet Earth.

Wow! That posted sort of weird. Oh well.

I am a major fan of Lillian Axe and this is great news indeed! Fave albums and songs, y'all?

Poetic Justice is my favorite album. Great and very underrated band.

Like these guys quite a bit although my Lillian Axe catalog is lacking a few discs. Psychoschitzophrenia is my favorite disc by the Axe.

Very cool band...haven't heard anything past Psychoschizophrenia...

I have the first three and the Live double set from 2002. I got into them in 1992 cuz of a girl I knew in college. I thought I knew about every Metal band out there and I am walking to my dorm room one day and I hear someone blasting Jackyl really loud. So, I investigate and come upon this girl's room. Her door is open and she's sitting on her bed reading a book. Long story short, I notice the Dokken and Vanhalen posters and we start talkin' metal. I look at a picture on her desk and don't recognize the band members, and I see that it's autographed to her, so I ask. She tells me and I reply "who the feck is Lillian Axe?" She lets me borrow a few cassettes (the S/T debut and Love and War) since I didn't have a CD player yet and the next week I was at a Newbury Comics picking up copies for myself. Love and War is one of my all time favorite albums. Ever. Glad to see them with some more new stuff. I will have to pick that up along with Fields of Yesterday and Waters Rising. Thanks for the good news, Scott. Peace.

Gulf Coast band. They were once huge down here.

1.LOVE AND WAR 10/10
2.PSYCHO 9.75/10
3.PJ 9.5/10
4.Fields Of Yesterday 9.25/20
5.S/T 9/10

One of my fave bands EVER!

Favorite LA song? DIANA!

I only have Lillian Axe's LOVE AND WAR album (on vinyl) and other than the fact that it's got a hot chick on the cover, I find it pretty unmemorable. Pretty standard second tier hair metal if you ask me. Great cover though.

Love And War is an awesome CD! 10/10 VERY memorable tunes, IMO. Listen to it again! Memorize it if you can!
