Attica Rage release new digital single 'Dark City' on Monday 4th May 2009 and are launching it at Hammerfest - Stage 2 Saturday - 12pm to 12.45pm. Included is a bonus cover version of Motorhead's classic 'Overkill' which has become a live favourite at Attica Rage shows.

'Dark City / Overkill' will be available from all major download stores including iTunes, TuneTribe, Napster, HMV, eMusic & more worldwide and we're calling on everyone to help get British heavy metal back into the UK charts!

PRE-ORDER THE SINGLE NOW - TEXT 'darkcity' to 81088

Following your text, you'll receive a reply with a pin number and weblink sent to your phone which will allow you to download the tracks from http://www.TuneTribe.com to your PC or Mac on the release date. Texts cost £1.50 plus standard network rate. All pre-orders count towards chart eligibility!

Thanks in advance for your support! :D

Quotes from a recent review of the single on LosingToday.com / myspace.com/thesundayexperience:

‘dark city’ is a heavy load bearing bastard, fast, slick and raging and riddled with all your dietary required festering chops and splintered with an underlying wind swept apocalyptic menace that’s serviced with a scalding and frenzied armoury of heads down no nonsense pummelling melodic blues rock......

....the big guns are trundled out to wage all manner of carnage for their fierce some re-drill of Motorhead’s iconic speed metal nugget ’overkill’.

......if like us you foolishly decide to play at maximum volume then may we suggest you don tin hats and gaffa tape your prized possessions or else suffer the fate of having yourself pinned to the wall as though facing up some land flattening tornado of biblical proportions and your listening space reduced to dust.

Criminally good."

Nah, unfortunately it's a download-only single....we're launching it at HF but it's released on 4 May on the download stores......no CDs, sorree! Our debut album CD will be on sale at HF though.....11 tracks with Dark City on it anyway :)

There's no chance of getting good music into the charts without a chav massacre, which is currently impractical :( I'll be sure to get your album at Hammerfest though :)
How much will it be about?

Sorry guys, I think you've got F*** sll chance of making it into the charts by releasing a single as download only!

If you were a pop act you might just do it, but everyone I know who's into metal hates downloading! CD all the way!
