Boston metal stalwarts MELIAH RAGE have announced a special Boston-area show to mark the release of their new album, Masquerade. On Saturday, February 20th, the band will headline a show at Whiplash, 63 Wyman Street, in Stoughton, Ma. along with fellow New England area metallers STEEL ASSASSIN and RAVAGE. Also appearing will be MOB HIT, featuring ex-WARGASM drummer Barry Spillberg. Doors will open at 8pm. The show is presented by Rawkstars Inc., and a portion of the proceeds will go to support free instruments, lessons and music programs for local kids.

Meliah Rage has much to celebrate. Now in their 23rd year, and after having recently reunited with original singer Mike Munro, Meliah Rage have just released what many are calling their finest album in Masquerade, which is currently available exclusively via www.metrocityrecords.com.

Following hot on the heels of their triumphant 2007 comeback album War Of The Eight Saints, power metal legends Steel Assassin have released a new CD consisting of new recordings of the '80’s classics that made the band local living legends.

Recently signed with heavyweight indie Metal Blade Records, Ravage have just released The End Of Tomorrow, and will wrap up a hectic year of touring and recording with this special one-off triple bill CD release show.

Mob Hit features musicians that have come from several successful bands (Wargasm, Diecast, Every Second, Kranksquad, Indesit), and promise to add an ‘old school hardcore’ vibe to the festivities.
