STRIKER Announce Canadian Tour Dates
May 7, 2013, 11 years ago
Hot on the heels of the release of their latest album, Armed To The Teeth, STRIKER have announced a Canadian tour, with dates scheduled to kick off May 18th in Calgary, Alberta and running through June 29th in Gibbons, Alberta. A complete list of dates can be found below.
Guitarist Chris Segger, is excited to hit the road: "Beautiful weather, playoff hockey and our most extensive Canadian tour to date! It's been two years since we've played most of these cities and we can't wait to get back on the road!!"
Armed To The Teeth, combines the perfect mix of melody and energy. The first two songs - 'Forever' and 'Let it Burn' - set the stage for the rest of the album. Striker ignites a firework in which rigorous riffing, playful solos and brilliant refrains are clearly the prime focus. Inspired by the originators of the scene like SAXON, IRON MAIDEN, ANNIHILATOR, but also EXCITER, the band stays hungry and wild over the full duration of the album. With every note, Armed To The Teeth breathes the spirit of the glorious 80's and revitalizes this particular era of music with a boost of fresh energy.
The video for the album track 'Let it Burn' can be seen below:
