Upcoming Shows on GIMME METAL:
Imperial Triumphant Guest DJ Special: Friday 8/07 at 3:00pm EST / 12:00pm PST - Alphaville is the latest from New York's Imperial Triumphant who once again prove their matchless technical excellence and breathtaking musical craftsmanship. The band describes the production as, "a record designed to be slowly and sensationally unfurled by the listener. It is a very dense and challenging environment we place you in. However, every track, transition, word, and note has been scrutinized over to ensure the most rewarding experience." Alphaville features the amazing packaging and cover art of renowned illustrator Zbigniew M. Bielak. Pick it up at shop.gimmeradio.com and join vocalist/guitarist Zachary Ilya Ezrin for the band's return to the guest DJ booth this afternoon. And don't forget to post #AlphaTriumphant in the LIVE chat during their DJ set for a chance to win a copy of Alphaville on vinyl.

Valdrin Guest DJ Special: Monday 8/10 at 11:00am EST / 8:00am PST - Forged in Cincinnati, Ohio, Valdrin's epic, shapeshifting blackened death is both timeless and exceptionally fresh, imparting masterful songwriting amidst impassioned playing. Their newest full-length, Effigy Of Nightmares on Blood Harvest, showcases their endlessly spiraling songwriting, highly memorable and metal hooks, and seamlessly blended synths. Blackening their attack yet further, Valdrin dives deeply into '90s black metal's most velvety expanses, all nightsky mysticism and fantastical atmosphere. Welcome founding guitarist/vocalist Carter Hicks to GIMME METAL's guest DJ chair.
