Bio:
After 25 years the clan is back home! During the five years that Martyr was alive and kicking (1982-1987), the band released two albums that are considered to be cult classics in the metal scene today. For The Universe (1985) and Darkness At Time's Edge (1986) are classic metal, a delight for those who love strong melodies, speedy riffs and a high level of technicality. In those years, Martyr appeared on compilation albums from Roadrunner and Metal Blade, was voted Holland's best new metal band in Aardschok magazine, toured with several international acts, and appeared on Sky Channel's Monsters Of Rock.Martyr disbanded in 1987, but reunited in 2001 to play the Heavy Metal Maniacs festival. Four years later, the band revived almost the complete 1982 line up to play the Headbangers Open Air and Keep It True festivals. The flame has been burning again and the band continued to play live ever since. In December 2008, Martyr supported US Shock Rockers Lizzy Borden on their European tour. In 2009 and 2010, Martyr hit the European stages supporting legendary acts such as Flotsam & Jetsam, Vicious Rumors, Jaguar, Evergrey and more.In 2009, the first new Martyr record in almost 25 years was released. The new EP Fear was coupled with a re-release of the classic For The Universe album as a double digipack on Rusty Cage Records.In 2010 and 2011, Martyr re-entered the studio between the live shows to work on the follow up to Fear. A complete new album called Circle Of 8 will be a significant impulse in Martyr's revival. And by signing with Metal Blade once again, the band's career has come full circle!
Album:
Martyr's new album, "Dark Believer," is set to be released on August 15th and has already generated excitement within the metal community. The Dutch metal band has released the title track and a music video for "Wrath of the Fallen" as singles, with the latter described as a storm of crushing riffs and thunderous bass. The album, available on CD, Vinyl, and Digital formats, is being released via the band's label, ROAR.Martyr is a Dutch metal band with a history of electrifying live performances and recognition for their contributions to Dutch metal, including being included in the "Dutch Steel (80's Metal From The Netherlands)" compilation. They've also toured extensively across Europe, Japan, and India, sharing stages with renowned bands and artists.
