EXCALIBUR

The Metal Voice House Band Release EXCALIBUR The Song, For some Christmas Cheer.

Singer Giles Lavery (Warlord, Alcatrazz, Jack Starr) teams up with The Metal Voice Podcaster, Editor, Jimmy Kay and producer (Paul Di’anno’s Hell over Waltrop, Jack Starr) multi- instrumentalist Thomas Mergler release the Epic EXCALIBUR song in time for a bit of Christmas cheer.

As a kid I used to write lyrics all the time hoping that one day my words would become an international hit song. So after watching the Excalibur movie sometime in 1981 I ran home and quickly wrote down the Excalibur lyrics. Forty three years later I posted the original lyrics on social media as a cute retro thing. Meanwhile Giles Lavery my close friend saw this post and texted me right away saying this needs to be a song… Lavery contacted producer and friend Thomas Mergler and the rest is history.” Jimmy Kay

Giles Lavery Added, “the concept of the video an homage to the fun of Iron Maiden comical Holy Smoke video. We also thought why not share some Christmas cheer right before the holidays and bring some smiles to everyone’s faces.

Fighter Records is proud to announce the official release of the unreleased sophomore album by the mythical Spanish Heavy/ Rock band EXCALIBUR. Entitled “Cero” and originally from 1996, the album will be released on CD as well as in a limited print run of 250 copies on 12″LP vinyl next 24th of March through Fighter Records.

“Cero” was originally recorded in 1996, but due to several circumstances it wasn’t released and only 50 copies were duplicated on CD-R just for close friends. EXCALIBUR ceased their musical activity right after, until their reunion in 2013. This album has a more Hard Rock orientation than their legendary debut “Generación Maldita” from ’88, although with the unmistakable style of the band.

This “Cero” re-issue contains a new cover art, and the CD version will feature 8 live bonus tracks recorded between 1987 and 2014, of which 5 of them are previously unreleased and were never recorded in studio.
