NIMROD - Legacy Of The Dead (December 1, 2023)

NEW UPCOMING ALBUM RELEASE ANNOUNCEMENT!

New release from: NIMROD – Legacy Of The Dead (December 1, 2023)

The Legacy Continues!

NIMROD is a Thrash Metal band from Chile which is around since 1985, founded by guitarist Chris Ira. In 1988 their first demo tape Time of Changes was released. In 1990 they got their first record deal, but the album was never released due to different reasons in and outside the band. Chris was frustrated about the whole situation and left the band for some years.

In 2004 the band decided to release the old demo remastered with some unreleased studio tracks and live recordings, before another break was done. Five years later Chris decided that it is time to reform the beast and started a new chapter under the name NIMROD B.C. After their comeback, they played festivals in South America with bands like TWISTED SISTER, VOIVOD, and MORBID ANGEL among others. Their album God Of War And Chaos from 2017 brought them back into the spotlight. The album features new vocalist Gary Wayne.

Now in 2023, it’s time for the next strike. To do this, Chris gathered his old gang and new friends around him and produced and mastered the album. The mix was done by Darren Carikas. Legacy Of The Dead features eleven new tracks plus two cover versions as a bonus which were already released on YouTube during Covid times. The first cover is DARK ANGEL’s cult song “Merciless Death” with founding member Don Doty on vocals. The second one is the BLACK SABBATH classic “Neon Knights” featuring on vocals none other than powerhouse singer Ronnie Romero (RAINBOW, MSG, ex-CORELEONI, ex-VANDENBERG). Also guesting on the album are SUBTERRA guitarist Felipe Montaldo Fitch showing his skills on three songs, former NIMROD bass player Rodrigo Urzua, original member Marcelo Naves and Pipo Barraza on drums and last but not least singer Leonardo Caballero.
