Richmond, VA's trad metal heavyweights VOLTURE have announced the upcoming North American vinyl release of their latest full length On The Edge. War on Music Records teams up with German vinyl behemoth High Roller Records to bring you this denim and leather masterwork on the one-and-only true metal format.

Volture is the brainchild of bassist Ryan Waste (MUNICIPAL WASTE) and guitarist Nick Poulos who formed the band in Richmond VA in November 2008 as a full time project leaning towards traditional heavy metal and the New Wave of British Heavy Metal. The two friends were joined by drummer Barry Cover, guitarist David Boyd and more recently vocalist Jack Bauer.

After a soaring debut EP on Heavy Artillery Records (Shocking It's Prey 2010) and a followup single on Tankcrimes (Rulebreaker 2011), VOLTURE inked a deal with High Roller, who released On the Edge in Europe on CD and Vinyl last month. “It's the total heavy metal package,” comments Ryan Waste. “In comparison to the mini-album and the single the themes are a little more involved and the song writing has gotten a bit more complex. Although we never want to stray too far away from our original direction. We will always play traditional heavy metal and that will never change!"

Volture appeared in 2012 at the prestigious Keep It True Festival and have since worked like true metal-maniacs, touring heavy across North America, just hot off a stretch of dates with the metal-gods RAVEN and DIAMOND HEAD.

The North American LP pressing will be released in early 2014, adorned gloriously in a high gloss LP jacket featuring artwork of the great Andrei Bouzikov. Pressing limited to 500 copies with the first 100 on color vinyl.
