Playing with big guns like BvB and Steel Panther must mean the band love the more glam side of metal, right? Well, not quite. Here’s some of their favourite tracks:
**Bring Me The Horizon – Empire **Chris: “Such an awesome riff and groove in this song, it’s just so heavy when it kicks in. I listen to this song if I need to get the blood pumping before a show and it always gets me so amped up.”
**Alter Bridge – Bleed It Dry **Kent: “We’ve been lucky enough to tour with Alter Bridge three times, it’s so awesome to have one of your favourite bands also be your mates too. Bleed It Dry just comes in slamming off the top, and the layered riff is sick. I love the drums in the verse and the lyrics are great.”
**Dimmu Borgir – Dimmu Borgir **Matt: “This song is the most epic piece of music that I have ever heard. Super heavy black metal, combined with a live orchestra and choir… Nothing gets me pumped for a show like Dimmu Borgir!”
