THIN LIZZY - Video Of DAMON JOHNSON Paying Tribute To PHIL LYNOTT In Song
January 15, 2015, 9 years ago
To commemorate 29 years since the passing of Thin Lizzy frontman Phil Lynott, Damon Johnson (Black Star Riders, Alice Cooper, Brother Cane) performs a soulful tribute to him with "Still In Love With You" in Phoenix, Arizona at the Musical Instrument Museum Music Theater this past weekend.
Black Star Riders have offered up the first taste of their sophomore effort, The Killer Instinct, due out on February 20th (Europe), 23rd (UK), 24th (North America) via Nuclear Blast. Check out "The Killer Instinct" single and lyric video below.
Vocalist Ricky Warwick comments: "The video is about strength, endurance and overcoming adversity. It's about belief, love and compassion in a world of doubt."
The band toured 2013’s All Hell Breaks Loose for a year – playing across the globe. October 2014 saw them gather in Nashville, TN and enter the studio with heralded producer Nick Raskulinecz (Rush, Foo Fighters, Alice In Chains, Mastodon) to start recording the follow up. The result is The Killer Instinct.
Ricky Warwick explains: “Life's not fair, never has been, never will. Sometimes you have to live with a killer instinct just to survive in the ongoing pursuit of happiness. Because nobody can do for you what you should be doing for yourself.”
The Killer Instinct will be released in different formats: CD, Limited 2-CD Digibook, Limited Gatefold Black Vinyl and Limited Gatefold Clear Vinyl (available for mail orders only).
Warwick talks about the new artwork “It’s a bit of a continuation from All Hell Breaks Loose, people will see the link, it’s very rock n’ roll. It’s going to look cool.”
