CHASTAIN vocalist Leather Leone is back again on WVOX.com's Metal Mayhem show in New York this Friday, December 27th at 7:30pm EST heard worldwide on WVOX.com and locally at 1460 AM. Leather will talk about Chastain's latest opus, Surrender To No One, which marks the return also of the bands original singer Leone. Leather proves on the new CD she hasn't lost anything from her glory days. Leather was the vocalist on the classic Chastain albums Mystery Of Illusion, Ruler Of The Wasteland, The 7th Of Never, The Voice Of The Cult and For Those Who Dare. Also returning to the band is original bassist Mike Skimmerhorn. The drums are now being handled by Stian Kristoffersen (PAGAN'S MIND, FIREWIND).

Guitarist David T. Chastain states, "Leather and I picked up right from where we left off as if no time had elapsed since the For Those Who Dare tour. We have been working on this material for nearly a year and it was difficult to choose from all of the songs we had written. Our goal was to keep one foot in the 'old days' and one foot in 2013. Stian's drumming helped modernize the sound. I think Leather is basically the same vocalist as she was in our earlier days. Judging from her recent Keep It True concert it is obvious she still has what it takes in the live arena. I feel 'Surrender To No One' fits right in with her other Chastain albums." Leather further adds, "I find much of it to be classic Chastain. There are undeniably some modern concepts involved, life changes, we grow! But I guarantee it will not disappoint, it is a Chastain CD.

Then at 9:15pm, New York City metallists MARTYRD and singer Aaron Pollard/guitarist Michael Andreas swing by WVOX for some live in studio high-decibel action talking about their latest video/single 'Faceless', a brutal whiplash of power and precision as the band declares. Described as a melee of blistering riffs and soaring vocal melodies sure to please fans of both KREATOR and SYMPHONY X, Martyrd says about Faceless that, "We had so much fun writing, recording and listening to it."That song just sort of came together on its own, very quickly. It's no-nonsense; it comes in pounding right off the bat, and then makes a statement with that heavy verse riff. This song is what Martryd is all about," says the band.
