METAL CHURCH Schedules Live Dates With JUDAS PRIEST, QUEENSRCHE; Plans To Record Live Album

June 5, 2008

Long-running Seattle metallers METAL CHURCH have issued the following update:

"We have been getting so many emails about tour dates we wanted to give you an update on the plans for this year's U.S. dates. METAL CHURCH will only be doing a handful of show later this summer at larger venues to accomodate more of the fans. These shows are currently being booked by Chuck Bernal at Artists Worldwide and will be recorded for our live album. It has been a long time since we have released a live album and this is the perfect opportunity.

"We do have a couple special dates that have been confirmed. The first date is August 2 in Mapplewood, MN with JUDAS PRIEST. The second date is August 16 in San Juan Puerto Rico at Roberto Clemente Coliseum with QUEENSRCHE.

"We are really looking forward to these shows and we will keep you all posted on the other dates as soon as we know more."

METAL CHURCH's new album, "This Present Wasteland", is scheduled for release later in the year via SPV Records.

METAL CHURCH's last CD, "A Light in the Dark", was released in June 2006 via SPV. The LP includes a new version of the classic "Watch the Children Pray" as a tribute to vocalist David Wayne, who passed away in May 2005.
