July 18, 2008, 15 years ago
'80's metal pioneer WILLIE BASSE has streamed his new album, The Money Grind, in its entirety online through AltSounds.com at this location.
The album, which was released through Basse’s own label New Empire Media, features a guest appearance by Randy Castillo (OZZY OSBOURNE, MÖTLEY CRÜE).
“I never really understood artists who don’t want to share their music as many people as possible. The way the industry has headed towards the online world, so why not embrace it and use it as tool to get your music out there,” says Basse about the online stream of his new album. “Head over to AltSounds and check out entire album if you are looking for a great metal album that’s rooted in classic metal.”Basse is best known for his role as bassist/frontman for the LA based legendary metalheads BLACK SHEEP, who were staples of Sunset Strip during the metal explosion of the ‘80s. Basse has now reemerged with his solo effort The Money Grind, an unapologetic approach to metal returns the genre to the classic sound of bands like DOKKEN, RATT, W.A.S.P. and DIO.
Basse recently announced the touring lineup for his group in support of The Money Grind.
Basse will be joined by Geoff Nicholls on keyboards (BLACK SABBATH, QUARTZ), drummer Bobby Rondinelli (Black Sabbath, RAINBOW, BLUE ÖYSTER CULT) and guitarist Mitch Perry (MSG, AEROSMITH) for a European and US tour.
Actual cities and dates to be announced.
