Preston band Evil Blizzard launch new album at Blitz
They put in a brief appearance in the studio to produce their third album, The Worst Show on Earth. And they followed this up by launching their very own record label - Crackedankles Records. First review from influential magazine and website Louder Than War has called it the 'album of the year - definitely'.
Heavy, grinding and yet commercially viable, this new album sees the band truly shake off the ‘gimmick’ tag of the past and stride forward into new musical dimensions. Yes; there’s still 4 basses. But also, piano, cello, samples and a general disregard for the basic concept of a ‘pop song’ with two tracks hitting the 10-minute mark.

And to launch the album, the Bliz boys are performing a special show at Blitz in Preston on Saturday, June 9. Doors open at 8pm and the first 200 in get a free raffle ticket which wins them a random present - ranging from a signed album to an Evil Blizzard ironing board or welcome mat.
