10.31.09 - A message from Steve Blaze.......

" It's been about 4 months since we released Sad Day on Planet Earth and only now are things calming a bit. Sorry we haven't reported since then but it has been a bit hectic. We would like to thank all of the fans across the country who came out and supported us as we trekked from New York to California and all points in between. We met lots of great people and turned on lots of new fans who didn't know we existed till now. It always baffles me how a band can exist for 20 years and still have a lot of rock fans never hear of them. Oh well, at least they have now. We played some great shows, some weird ones, some hot outdoor ones and some amazing ones, all the while busting our tails to spread the word. It was very tiresome but thanks to an amazing crew and manager, the relentless Charlie Bagarozza, we never skipped a beat. We were fortunate enough to be invited by Alice Cooper and his organization to share the stage again as we did on the Waters Rising tour. Once again, Alice, his band and crew proved to be the class outfit that they were two years ago. We thank them highly for taking such care of us and going the extra mile to make us comfortable and allow us to put on the show we wanted to. I was fortunate to spend the day on the golf course with Alice, Damon Johnson, Chuck Garrick, and Jerry, Alice's assistant and my friend Chris Norch. I spoke with Alice on many topics and he proved to be an amazing, smart and humble human being. He is truly the legend he is recognized as. Not too shabby a golfer either. He tore everyone up. I was smart enough to simply drive the golf cart. Damon, Chuck and Jerry are my new golf buddies and proved to be truly wonderful people as well.

After finishing that run, we are now preparing to play the state fair in Baton Rouge, LA on Halloween night. Then we will be shooting videos for MegaSlowFade and Nocturnal Symphony. I have started writing for the next album already and it feels intense and magnetic. It's great to be home and spending time with my 6 month old Jude, and the rest of the band and crew are resting up for 2010. We plan on hitting the road hard in Jan-Feb to support SDOPE. Thanks so much to all of you for your love and support.

 

 

10.21.09

Due to circumstances beyond the control of Lillian Axe, Lillian Axe's management, and Lillian Axe's booking agent, the November 21stRockfest Festival has been cancelled by the promoter of the show.  We are truly disappointed that this event will not be taking place.  We have received numerous emails from our UK fans and fans from all over the world that were traveling to the UK to see us.  We promise that we will be making every effort to come to the UK to tour in support of our "Sad Day on Planet Earth" CD.  Please check our website in the future for UK tour dates. 

We would also like to thank all the fans that came out to see us support shock rock legend, Alice Cooper.  We really enjoyed hanging out with all our fans at these shows.  We had a blast.

 

Derrick, Steve, Sam, Eric, and Ken

01.30.09 LILLIAN AXE SIGNS WITH BLISTERING RECORDS

"Classic, Heavy, Progressive.....embracing the past...shaping the future." is the battle cry of our new home. 

Lillian Axe and their manager are proud to announce that Lillian Axe has signed a worldwide recording contract for 4 albums with Swedish Label, Blistering Records. Blistering Records' US office is located in Pittsburgh, PA and the label is distributed by Ryko Distribution in the United States.  The U.S. operations of Blistering Records are run by music industry veteran, Jim Pitulski.  Jim is well respected in the hard rock and metal community and Lillian Axe is happy to welcome Jim and the Blistering Records staff to our family.

Derrick, Eric, Ken, Sam and Steve are so excited about joining the Blistering Records roster of artists and look forward to a long and successful venture recording their music for Blistering Records. 

While searching for a new label over the past year, Lillian Axe was looking for a label who wanted the band to be part of their present and future.  Blistering Records proved to be the most aggressive suitors for Lillian Axe and that made our decision that much easier to make.  Blistering Records wanted Lillian Axe and Lillian Axe wanted to be part of Blistering Records.

Lillian Axe, having re-established themselves in 2007 and 2008 look forward to 2009 as the year of The Axe. Lillian Axe will embark on their world tour in June in support of their new CD, "Sad Day On Planet Earth" taking them across the United States, Canada, Europe and Japan. Every city and every festival that wants Lillian Axe will have them.  Lillian Axe look forward to being on the road for the next 12 months.

Although, Lillian Axe never forgets its past, their sound is very modern. The new CD entitled "Sad Day On Planet Earth" is by far their strongest album musically speaking.  There are so many different sounding songs that all forms of radio: Active Rock, Mainstream Rock and Metal Radio will embrace this album.  Lillian Axe are happy to be giving this album to a label who truly believes in the band. 14 songs of pure Lillian Axe.

The songs that will be appearing on "Sad Day On Planet Earth" were written by Steve Blaze.  The song titles are:  Megaslowfade, Ignite, Divine, Down Below The Ocean, Jesus Wept, Within Your Reach, Sad Day On Planet Earth, Fire Blood The Earth & Sea, The Grand Scale Of Finality, Cold Day In Hell, Blood Raining Down On Her Wings, Hibernate, Kill Me Again and Nocturnal Symphony.

All the album artwork is being created by Peter Tsakiris, who is a major force in the industry having created album art for Dio, Twisted Sister, Deep Purple, Ted Nugent, Overkill, Jackyl and Warrior Soul to name a few.

Once again, we thank you for the opportunity to make the music Lillian Axe has believed in its whole career. Lillian Axe looks forward to making music with you today, tomorrow and in the future.

Keep an eye out for more news on Lillian Axe as we get closer to the birth of "Sad Day On Planet Earth."
