The album will feature special bonus tracks, guest appearances as well as a live “Thundersteel 30 the Anniversary” album release not far behind!
Long time Riot bassist and main songwriter Don Van Stavern says “Its really awesome to be on, 'THEE,' metal label and have so much respect and excitement between us. We are in great hands with the marketing king Markus Wosgien and It’s always nice to have a mutual vision of what this band needs to be thrust back onto the metal battlefield and with our thousands of Metal Soldiers supporting and fighting with us this will be the start of a great relationship”, and it doesn’t hurt that some of the Nuclear Blast staff are long time fans!”
RIOT V are busy recording the follow up to the highly acclaimed come back record “Unleash The Fire” which entered the Hard Rock 100 Billboard charts at 75 and Rolling Stone Magazine gives it a 4 out of 5 and most media including Burrn! Rock Hard and Aardshock calling it album of the year! The new disc will be released early next year in March 2018 and production duties will be handled by producer whiz Chris “The Wizard” Collier (Korn, Prong, Flotsam and Jetsam, Metal Church, Dokken, Slipknot etc). Long time members Don Van Stavern, Mike Flyntz, vocalist extraordinaire Todd Michael Hall, skin basher Frank Gilchriest and guitar whiz kid Nick Lee feel this next offering will please long time fans and create new ones as the material is fresh and power metal at it’s finest in the traditional styling’s of this era of RIOT.
