HELL'S GAZELLES - SUMMER UPDATE - FESTIVALS - EP RECORDING

2017 is more than halfway through now, and it's been another 6 months of bigger and better things!
After our success at HRH - Highway to Hell we went off to Ibiza in May to play at HRH - Roadtrip. This was our first international show, and we made a great many new friends and fans. We also got to catch Phil Campbell and the Bastard Son, as well as the awesome Bernie Marsden, which was pretty sick. A privilege to be on the bill with some true rock legends!
Soon after we got back to the UK we made an appearance at Breaking Bands Festival, a grassroots Rock/Metal fest that's built a real reputation as one of the hottest spots for up and coming UK talent, and a festival we were proud to be on the bill for!
Earlier this year we were pleased to announce that we would be heading back into the studio to record the follow up to our Debut last year. We recorded most of our new EP, 'Take Your Medicine' in July this year at Vale Studios, before making a trip back to Oxford to guest headline at this year's Metal 2 the Masses final in Oxford. Big shout out to this years winners K-Lacura! We know they'll enjoy Bloodstock as much as we did!
'Take Your Medicine' will be released next year, featuring cover art by the incredible Andy Pilkington of Very Metal Art. This is the first record where we've written music specifically for the release, and we're extremely proud of the work we've done. The music is a lot more current, but with all the balls you've come to expect from us. As a special treat for the attendees of the M2TM Final, we played our new EP in it's entirety, and judging by the reaction, we're pretty certain it's going to go down a storm. We're psyched to get out and gig it come release time next year!
With most of the tracking done in the studio, we had another Festival slot lined up this July at Amplified Festival. It being the first year of the festival, and seeing that it was already boasting a pretty incredible line up, we were buzzing to get up there and do our thing. The crew at Amplified battled through some pretty insane weather conditions and turned a biblical downpour into a huge success.
We felt right in our element at Amplified, with a mix of heavier and not so heavy bands, and when we found out that the bands from the Very Metal Art stage would be playing in the beer tent we couldn't have been happier. Definitely one of our favourite festival experiences as a band.
As always, keep an eye on the gigs section of our site to see when we're next playing near you.

Keep the rock alive folks!
