While Get Dead might be limited to six songs, it does manage to showcase every shape and sound of Ages Of Evil. Inspirations, the live performance, and a couple new songs to let listeners know all is well as the foursome prepares for another full-length release makes for an eager listener awaiting more, rest assured. But all those dudes are young? And they can play that well? Oh, and they're two pairs of brothers - making the term Brothers In Arms (thanks, DIRE STRAITS!) more aptly applicable now than ever.
“We have a unique bond that doesn’t come around very often and it works to our advantage when writing music, touring, and everything else that comes with a band,” Goldberg told BraveWords.com about the tandem team of brothers that fills the ranks of
Age of Evil. “Being brothers will carry on with us for the rest of our lives…Can’t get sick of it now, right?”
And sick of it they haven’t gotten yet. After four trips to Europe (“We had a lot of really great shows with
JON OLIVA’S PAIN, TESLA, and
SOULFLY,” Goldberg reassures),
Age of Evil is trying to keep the flag for metal waving whilst taking that show on the road.
“People can count on us to keep the spirit of traditional heavy metal and rock alive,” Goldberg reassures us. But can you guys keep it alive in Europe, where they expect nothing but top notch performances? “Hmmm, four teenagers alone in Europe for 60 days where the drinking age is 16 and hookers are legal?,” Goldberg tells us. “It was awesome! But more importantly we proved that we can do this, no scratch that, we can dominate.”
And hopefully that translates into a live show for the Western Hemisphere-ers among us, because if North America needs anything, it’s a band with musical chops free of any of the twelve-hundred types of –core we can reference here. Can we expect some North American dates, though? “God I hope so," Goldberg BraveWords.com. "We really want to be playing the US right now [and] we are working hard on bringing you one less pig squealing ‘The End Is Never Tomorrow If I Die Today’ band. [We're] hoping for a tour early 2010 or summer 2010.”
If Get Dead and its predecessor, Living A Sick Dream, are any indications, the world probably hasn’t heard the last of
Age of Evil. In fact, if they don’t hit a club nearby this writer, we all might be a bit bummed out. In the meantime, check them out on MySpace
