METAL MIKE CHLASCIAK – New Album Streaming In Full

Monday, 20th May 2013

HALFORD/former Sebastian Bach guitarist “Metal” Mike Chlasciak is currently streaming his new album The Metalworker at this location. The album will be released via C.M.M. Entertainment, LLC on June 4th.

Metal Mike: “Foremost, I want to say thank to you for following my metal journey and sharing the passion with me for the only style of music that simply can not be challenged as far as the presence it bestows upon a fan’s life. I believe one thing as we all have in common here is that we love heavy metal – loud, pure, unbending, cranking – the voice of the gods.

It is with these thoughts that I try to approach making an album or participating in a tour. Metal for me is bigger than a CD in my collection or what’s playing on the iPod while I do a task. In reality, there is no separation for me at all. It owns me and I own it. It’s bigger than all of us, yet we are an integral part of keeping it strong and preserved for the next generation of metalheads.

Today is an important day for me as I’m letting you know about my new album, The Metalworker. When you do things as a solo artist it’s an immense undertaking to make a record. And, since I’m a perfectionist …. well, you can put that together.

I have made The Metalworker with no compromises, no filler, no auto-tune, no crazy pro-tools or studio magic. I did it old school I suppose by today’s standards. Marshalls were cranking while I went for the best takes. Same way the greatest records of all time were made by Priest, Maiden, Megadeth and many others.

I asked the best musicians I could find to make my best album to date. Carlos Zema is a superior singer and he stands in the league of the greats. Mike LePond’s bass playing drives forward SYMPHONY X, which we all know is a killer band. Drummer Kevin Talley has this wild ability to almost read my mind and provide the perfect drum parts to my riffs which is quiet rare. His double bass skills are almost machine like and I challenged him with the fastest track I ever recorder – Hails And Horns. Let’s just say, wait ‘til you hear this!

Come on down and take part of what I’ve been doing for the last 3 years! Horns Up Forever!”

The Metalworker will be officially available via iTunes, Amazon MP3, Rhapsody, iHeartRadio, Spotify, Tradebit, My Space Music, Nokia and other major digital distributors. The album is also available in physical format across most locations that support and distribute quality metal including CM Distro, Amazon.com, CD Universe and many others.
