Music News - Vader - Wellington
31 July 2017 - 0 Comments
One
of the Pioneers of the Death/Thrash scene,
Vader, play their inaugural New Zealand tour.
Vader’s brand of brutal savagery has stood the test of time, unleashing over
three decades of unrelenting riffs and delightfully hellish ferocity.
The band formed in Olsztyn, Poland in 1983 and is centered around vocalist and
guitarist/founder Piotr ‘Peter’ Wiwczarek, although he debuted with them
initially in the bass guitarist slot. The crucial point in Vader history was
its participation in the first Polish (and the first across the Eastern Europe)
Heavy Metal festival - Metalmania in 1986, after which Vader was hailed as “the
Polish Slayer”. Shortly afterwards Vader recorded their second demo tape
Morbid Reich. This would sell in excess of 10.000 copies making it the most
popular death metal demo of all time.
This unprecedented success and the fall of the Iron Curtain opened up new
territories to conquer and Vader did just that playing literally thousands of
shows, to all corners of this earth. Now Vader finally savage New Zealand.
New songs as well as favourites including
Dark Age,
Vicious Circle,
Angels of
Steel,
Wings and
Triumph of Death are sure to create one tornado of a raging
circle pit so be ready for a hell of a great time!
