VAMPYRE ANVIL

Cold Waves IV was an amazing experience. a family affair and a damn good time. Biggest attendance yet and everything went off without a hitch.
Wax Trax! again added to the magical atmosphere, and our sponsors, Kuma's Corner and Revolution Brewing brought the party to an even greater level with donations, food and beer specials ,and their own brand of kickassery. Thank you to Schecter Guitars for the awesome customized raffle items, the Metro staff for becoming an even bigger part of our family, the bands for killing it each and every set, and finally the fans and friends who came out and supported Cold Waves IV... see you next year? ;)

10/11:

Due to our lovely government shutdown and the unavailability of foreign work visas, the GODFLESH U.S. shows have been canceled for fall 2013, to be rescheduled in spring 2014. Czar is confirmed for the new date.

In the meantime we are proud to announce Czar will be performing with MORBID ANGEL at House of Blues Chicago, November 17. The new Czar album "No One Is Alone If No One Is Alive" hits the pavement November 5.
