True American Metal band White Wizzard finally unveil their long anticipated new album!
Band leader and bassist Jon Leon earlier this year announced the return of
classic members, vocalist Wyatt “Screaming Demon” Anderson and guitarist James J. LaRue, to the
ranks of White Wizzard, as well as a new label deal with M-Theory Audio. The band have spent
much of 2017 crafting their finest offering to date, helmed once again by producer Ralph Patlan
(Megadeth, UFO, Flotsam and Jetsam).
Entitled Infernal Overdrive, the band’s fourth full-length, will be released January 12th on CD and
gatefold double vinyl. The album is over an hour long and captures all the ingredients of past White
Wizzard work but expands upon the template with seasoned maturity, outstanding musicianship
and a widening of influences including ‘70s hard rock and progressive rock/metal.
“We’re very excited to FINALLY release our new album, Infernal Overdrive. Despite madness and
delays we’ve persevered through hard work and determination and this album has finally come to be,”
explains Jon Leon. “This is, in everyone’s opinion, a special album and what we feel is our best work to
date. It has a lot of dynamics and amazing vocals by Wyatt with stunning lead guitar by James J.
LaRue.
The cover art for the album was created by a fan in the UK named Christopher Hardy, who did a killer
job based on my latest Pontiac GTO, as well as a bunch of cool pieces for each individual song; which
will definitely make it to a couple t-shirts!
I am very proud of the work we have all done on this album. It's something that upon writing it I felt
was going to be special, and it's turned out to exceed even my highest expectations. Thanks to the fans,
we can't wait to see you all on tour and cannot thank you all enough for the amazing support and
passion.”
White Wizzard werden eine Handvoll Shows im Südwesten der USA spielen, um ihren Release zu
feiern und haben bereits ein Konzert am 31. März in London bekanntgegeben, das Teil einer
geplanten Europatour ist.
