Just recently VADER issued their 2015 recap, unveiling also their plans for 2016:
Vadermaniax !!!! Year 2015 has ended a week ago. How was it for VADER? Pretty busy and really good indeed! We played over 100 shows on three continents. We spread madness in Georgia and Indonesia for a first time. VADER also came back to Russia after years for successful „Transsibirian East tour” in June.
There were many festivals and great tours like Blitz, Hatefest , the tour with Venom Inc. and long awaited trip to South America at the end of year.
We released beautiful re-edition of VADER first demos on all formats, also „Future of the Past” with bonus 2nd part including covers of Underground Metal hordes from Poland and Czech from 80’s. Our official Vaderempire.pl online store, which we started in December 2014 with cooperation with Witchinghour Prod. became huge success too! VADER also signed deal with Nuclear Blast to continue great cooperation for next years!
Now we are in 2016… What are the plans? We will give You new album entitled “The Empire” in early Autumn! We may already promise You VADER appearance on many great festivals this Summer also classical for our band tour BLITZ! in Russia, Poland and Europe, where we’ll play new album. But earlier we will show up in UK/Ireland (in April) with Overkill. Vaderemire.pl is working in the meantime on re-edition of legendary debut album in very special edition yet in Spring – when VADER will work in Hertz Studio with songs for fresh killer album. For all those who can’t wait so long we plan to release EP. with some new tunes before vacations. We are ready for 2016 !!! Are You ready for VADER?
