July 7, 2008, 16 years ago
Tennessee’s metal contingent THE SHOWDOWN is proud to announce the release of their upcoming album, Back Breaker, due August 19th on Solid State Records. The new record marks The Showdown’s Solid State debut.
The album art (pictured at left, click to enlarge) was designed by Invisible Creature (KORN, NORMA JEAN, BULLET FOR MY VALENTINE).
Vocalist David Bunton commented on the new album: “Back Breaker is the sum of our band’s raw power, aggression, and total dedication to heavy metal. It’s all about our band getting what we do live on tape. Back Breaker is the record The Showdown made when we stopped caring about anything but heavy metal. If a riff is heavy, you don’t have to over think it. Just let it crush you. We are 100% dedicated to heavy metal and pushing ourselves to playing it as loud and rude as possible.”
The track list for Back Breaker will be as follows: 'Titanomachy - The Beginning', 'Hephaestus - The Hammer Of The Gods', 'Aphrodite - The Disillusionaire', 'Achilles - The Backbreaker', 'Prometheus - The Fires Of Deliverance', 'Cerberus - The Hellhound Awaits', 'Odysseus - A Song Of Hope', 'Ares - I Am Vengeance', 'Infernus - You Will Move', 'Nemesis - Give Us This Day', 'Medea - One Foot In Hell'.
The Showdown will be on the Solid State Tour this fall with Norma Jean.
