GUN BARREL Prepare To Deliver Fifth Album Via Massacre Records

Massacre Records will release the newest album from German dirty rock 'n rollers GUN BARREL, entitled Brace For Impact, in North America on May 22nd.

Since their year-2000 formation, GUN BARREL have pulverized their fans and music critics like with their uncompromising style of metallic rock and their raging on-stage attitude. Following a steady flow of releases via respected labels like SPV and Limb Music over the past decade the band signed with Germany's Massacre Records for the 2012 release of their fifth full-length studio release, Brace For Impact.

With nearly fifty minutes of GUN BARREL's thundering approach in its holster, Brace For Impact bears eleven hard-hitting tracks, and is the first release from the band to feature new vocalist Patrick Sühl. The change in the vocal guard gave the entire band a new surge of energy, which shows trough in every song. The band recorded the album recorded in their own studio, and had it mixed by Yenz Leonhardt (Iron Savior, Savage Circus, Stormwarrior) and mastered by Tommy Hansen (Helloween, Jorn, TNT), and commissioned the cover artwork to Steve Santana (Harley Davidson, Powerwolf).

GUN BARREL's "Brace For Impact" released on March 23, 2012 via Massacre Records

GUN BARREL dont breathe new life into the great tradition of heavy metal, they inject it with high pressure. These guys combine old school, misfit rock n roll and metal attitude in an ingenious way. Being the representatives of this dirty metal rock 'n' roll, they really let it rip during their legendary live performances.

You can feel the animal instinct and the heart and soul that make the band skyrocket on stage. If nothing else, this might be due to the fact that GUN BARREL are among the most frequent performers in Germany. Those, who survived the GUN BARREL live drumfire are totally thrilled and become serial offenders. This is unavoidable.

GUN BARREL are always good for a surprise. Acoustic show or full decibel attack; it is not unusual that guest stars such as Andy Brings appear on stage with them, that they contribute songs to several samplers, take a flight to Spanish island Mallorca by the order of rock n roll or that they give the audience an understanding of their sound at legendary festivals such as Wacken Open Air or Slovenia's Metalcamp.

GUN BARREL have gone through a lot during the last 10 years; so these dudes became a tough alliance. Rock star affectations? No way. Despite all the glamour, the band remains down-to-earth and continues to look forward - one is still up to much more!

GUN BARREL's new album "Brace For Impact" will be released on March 23, 2012 via Massacre Records!
