It’s been five years since US power metal act Vicious Rumors unleashed their most recent album. Five years during which band mastermind Geoff Thorpe and his crew played well over one hundred and fifty shows, presenting their longstanding career in condensed form and performing a playlist featuring their most important VR classics. These shows have left their mark on the band members while at the same time releasing a burst of new energy. Both these factors are now literally about to culminate on their upcoming album ‘The Devil’s Asylum’, which Geoff Thorpe aptly summarises,
saying: “‘The Devil’s Asylum’ sees us return to our roots, which we’ve combined with contemporary influences.”
He continues: “Vicious Rumors look back at a career that spans 45 years, so there’s only one goal for us: Everything we do should always be significant, every show, every song, every new album. This band has always stood for maximum intensity, powerful music and lots of new, fresh ideas.” In this respect, ‘The Devil’s Asylum’ couldn’t be more typical of Vicious Rumors and at the same time the album is bound to appeal to new fans.
