The track is taken from the band’s upcoming EP “Hellrider” that will be released on 28th April on various vinyl formats, and will also be released as a two-in-one digipack CD and 2LP Picture disc combo along with the “I Walk Among You” EP.

Fans of American metal act Iced Earth have long hoped for a new sign of life from their icons. On 28 April 2023, the wait will be over at last: The band has announced the release of two new EPs on ROAR! Rock Of Angels Records. Entitled ‘Hellrider’ and ‘I Walk Among You’, these releases will include rare recordings from the transition phase between singer Tim ‘Ripper’ Owens’ and predecessor/successor Matt Barlow in 2007 and 2008, a particularly exciting and eventful period in Iced Earth’s band history.

The ‘Hellrider’ EP consists of the songs ‘Prophecy’, ‘Birth Of The Wicked’ and ‘The Coming Curse’, originally from the album ‘Something Wicked This Way Comes’ (1998), voted one of the best power metal records of all time by Metal Hammer. In late summer 2007, all three tracks were re-recorded, featuring Tim ‘Ripper’ Owens.

The second EP ‘I Walk Among You’ includes the studio tracks ‘Setian Massacre’, ‘A Charge To Keep’ and ‘The Clouding’ from the 2007 album ‘Framing Armageddon (Something Wicked Part I)’, which were remixed and remastered in 2008 and feature the recently-returned Matt Barlow. In addition, there are the live tracks ‘Dark Saga’, ‘Pure Evil’ and ‘Iced Earth’, cut at the 2008 Graspop Metal Meeting and also featuring Barlow.

Iced Earth comment on the EP’s: “Before now, these releases hadn’t been issued on anything other than CD. Now they’ve been remastered, with new artwork, new mastering, new formats on vinyl, picture disc, and they’ll be available for digital download for the first time.

Both EP’s will be released on April 28, 2023 on various vinyl formats and will also be released as a two-in-one digipack CD and 2LP Picture disc combo!

Perris Records Reissues Roxx Gang “The Voodoo You Love” with Bonus Track “Magic Carpet Ride”

SAN FRANCISCO, CA (February 9, 2023) — Perris Records announces the reissue of the Roxx Gang CD “The Voodoo You Love” on February 17th. This reissue features a bonus track “Magic Carpet Ride”. Roxx Gang first signed with indie label Perris Records in 1995 and released their much anticipated second CD entitled “The Voodoo You Love”. This CD leaned the band back toward it’s original blues-rock roots that were hinted at on songs like “Ball-N-Chain,” “Red Rose” and “Fastest Gun In Town” on “Thing You’ve Never Done Before.” “The Voodoo You Love” received great reviews, Radio And Records said, “Roxx Gang are Florida’s premier hard rock band. They’ve amassed quite a following in that state with their powerful live shows. Their new CD has the potential to break the band all over America.” A European rock magazine said, “The Voodoo You Love” is the fireworks of rock-n-roll; the future of 90’s glam starts here.” “The Voodoo You Love” went on to be one of the biggest selling CD in the history of Perris Records. The Sam Phillips family (Elvis, Johnny Cash) company Select-o-Hits in Memhis TN contacted Perris Records about this Roxx Gang release and started a long time distribution deal with hundreds of Perris Records artist that still carry’s on 28 years later.

Kevin Steele, lead vocalist Roxx Gang, “The Voodoo You Love was the second Roxx Gang record. It was produced by the band with Carl Canedy (The Rods, Anthrax) and was mixed by Jon Mathias (Dickie Betts, Ian Hunter, Manowar). The reason for the time gap between the first Roxx Gang record and The Voodoo You Love was that Virgin offered to make a second record to be released on their Charisma label. The band opted out of that deal with Virgin and we signed with CBS/Epic which was bought by Sony shortly after we signed. Sony then fired the staff at Epic and released many of the bands on the Epic label including Roxx Gang. These events along with the onset of “Grunge” rock delayed the release of The Voodoo You Love until it found a home on Perris Records. The Voodoo You Love is my favorite Roxx Gang record as it was a move away from Things You’ve Never Done Before’s more “Metal” sound to a classic “Rock-n-Roll ” sound that included piano, horns and saxophone on various cuts. What most people don’t know about The Voodoo You Love is that the Things You’ve Never Done Before lineup recorded this record. Two songs, “Time Bomb” and “Thick As Thieves.” were added afterwards and recorded by the now new lineup pictured on the album cover. The new reissue contains the bonus track “Magic Carpet Ride” (original song not the Steppenwolf classic) that was an outtake from The Voodoo You Love sessions. I can’t for the life of me remember why we didn’t include it on the record because it’s a really cool song”

“Auburn has been a roller coaster to work on,” frontwoman and founding band member Elana explains. “It explores change, evolution, and the ugly and beautiful things that go along with that. It’s a ride through manic highs and heavy lows. There is a lot of messiness involved in rediscovering yourself. I’m so grateful for all of the amazing people involved in the creation of this album. It was really amazing working with people like CarlaRayMarcos, and of course Nick. I am so excited to finally get  Auburn out into the world!”
