DRI-EuropeanTour

D.R.I. released their new EP, “But Wait… There’s More!”, on June 10th, via Beer City Records. Order the EP here!

For the past 35 years (formed in May 1982), D.R.I. has been the epitome of the agressive, hardcore-punk thrash sound that we’ve all become accustomed to hearing. Throughout this time, they’ve been one of the few genuine underground bands to remain true to their pure punk roots. Still actively touring, recording and thrashing just as hard, and just as loud as ever, continuing to overload our senses with the sound that is, and will always remain, uniquely D.R.I.

David Maloney tells about Metalheads Forever:
“Metalheads Forever was created on October 15th, 2010 because of a life long love and passion for Metal. It was started with the intent to satisfy some of my Metal needs as well as a few close Metal friends. Like any great thing it started with one, then two, than three and 6 years later 82,000 plus members and fans make us one of the biggest and baddest Metal entities on the face of the Earth. What started out as a hobby and purely for fun as turned into a something I was not prepared for in the beginning, as we started to grow so did my vision of what we could be and what we could become. Day by day, week by week and yes year by year I could see that this was a Globally shared passion with very few outlets to just be a Metalhead and enjoy the company of lifelong Metalheads and like minded people. So here we sit 6 years later, 43 subgroups covering nearly all sub-genres, being a force on all social Platforms from Twitter to Youtube and everything in between. This is just the beginning for us! \m/”
