Warriors of Metal Fest IV Open Air comes to Columbus area June 17-18, 2011
Amelia, OH – April 30, 2011 – The only open-air fest dedicated to traditional true metal in the US will be held at Frontier Ranch in Kirkersville, OH on June 17-18, 2011.
Friday night is headlined by the North Carolina metal heroes, Widow , who will be releasing their fifth album this year, “Life’s Blood,” with direct support by northern Ohio’s own thrash metallers, Vindicator , who are working on their third album due out later this year.
Saturday night is headlined by US and European metal fest veterans Aska from Dallas, TX, who will be releasing their eagerly anticipated sixth album, with direct support by Cleveland’s own Shok Paris , who will be playing their first Columbus-area show in over 20 years as they finish recording “Decharge Electrique,” their first new album since 1989.
Also returning to the fest this year by popular demand are Sacred Dawn (Chicago, IL) , Lords of the Trident (Madison, WI) , V ӓ nlade (Kansas City, KS) , Age of Distrust (Chillicothe, OH) and internationally recognized doom metallers Dantesco from Puerto Rico.
Making their debut to our fest, and the first female-fronted power metal band to play Warriors of Metal Fest, is Benedictum featuring Veronica Freeman. Other artists appearing for the first time are A Tortured Soul (Milwaukee, WI) , Spellcaster (Portland, OR) , Deathalizer (New York City, NY) , Draekon (Indianapolis, IN) , Horrifier (Trenton, NJ) , Stone Magnum (Michigan City, IN) , and Argonaut (Fort Wayne, IN, with ex-Zephaniah members Justin Zych, Ian Bender, and Gary Wenglikowski). Additionally, Split Heaven from Mexico, Machinage from Brazil, and Aura Azul from Puerto Rico, who were hand-picked by Iron Maiden to open their April 14th San Juan show, will all be making their debuts on US soil.
Warriors of Metal Fest IV Open Air is organized this year by Warriors of Metal Inc., a newly-formed non-profit organization dedicated to providing education , support and encouragement toward the advancement of traditional true metal music in America . According to board member Lea Alaee, “The ultimate goal of this fest is to grow it into the American version of some of the best European true metal festivals out there. Our event has already been compared favorably with Germany’s iconic Keep It True festival and Headbanger’s Open Air Festival, both of which are in their 14th years. It’s just a matter of time and effort to reach out to all the metalheads to let them know that this is the summer metal party they absolutely cannot miss each year!”

<p><span style="font-size: medium;">Hey Everyone!</span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">I have been testing this out for a little while and we are pretty much in final beta stage so we have opened it up for all Mixposure Users. Eventually me may just make it for Premium Members but for now, it is open to everyone. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">Groovy Disk is a new iPhone and Android App that is a Musical Game for lack of a better term. Mixposure was asked to be a part of their initial launch and I thought it would be great for our users. This will open your music up to a multitude of new listeners at no expense to you. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">If you go into the control panel and click on Groovy Disk, it will give you more details. So please take the time and check it out and create an entry. I have included screen shots to show you what it looks like. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">Please let me know if you have any questions!</span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">Dazed</span></p><p> </p><p><span style="font-size: medium;"><img src="http://www.mixposure.com/image.php?mode=message_image&band_id=0&message_id=7528&width=500" alt="" width="500" height="320" /><br /></span></p>
