Massachusetts quintet ALL THAT REMAINS, whose latest album "Overcome" has sold more than 150,000 copies since its September release, will appear on a special edition of MTV2's "Headbangers Ball" this Thursday (April 30) at 11 p.m. EST/PST. The program will feature videos and interviews with the band, as well as footage shot backstage at the inaugural Revolver Golden Gods Awards, which took place in Los Angeles on April 7 and which will air on MTV2 on Saturday (May 2). The Golden Gods broadcast will include a live rendition of current Top 10 active rock hit single "Two Weeks", marking the band's first performance to be shown on television.

"I am a lucky dude, 'cause even though it seems like I keep saying this over and over, it's a REALLY good time to be in ALL THAT REMAINS right now," says vocalist Phil Labonte. "We have SO many really awesome things that have been going on, and I can't say thanks enough to everyone who keeps supporting us. We played the first Revolver Golden Gods Awards here in the States a few weeks back, and it was a GREAT show. The band really felt like we were firing on all cylinders and had a great time. We also got to see the KILLSWITCH ENGAGE dudes, and that's always a good time. Being part of the first ever U.S. metal awards show is pretty sweet, and we were really flattered to be a part of it. It's also good to hear that 'Headbangers Ball' is getting an injection of life," he continues. "It's great to be featured in the build-up to the awards show, and it's pretty cool that we are getting our FIRST TV performance with 'Headbangers Ball'. They have supported us since we made our first video for 'The Deepest Gray!'

"Thanks to everyone who's been supporting us 'cause things are AMAZING. Be on the lookout for us, 'cause we're on the road forever! Come rock!"

In other ATR news, guitarist Mike Martin will be interviewed live on Austin's KROX-FM (101X) tomorrow (Apr. 28),prior to the band's headlining show that night at Emo's.
