Lethal Halo Confirms Upcoming Shows and Hiatus http://www.lethalhalo.com/newspress/?p=645 http://www.lethalhalo.com/newspress/?p=645#comments Mon, 03 Nov 2014 23:05:23 +0000 http://www.lethalhalo.com/newspress/?p=645 EFFECTIVE END OF 2014

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE***

Oct 30, 2014 — It is with much sadness that we announce the indefinite hiatus of Lethal Halo at the end of 2014.

 

Over the past year we have been working on the new Animanaut EP and realized that while we all love the band and the music we create, we needed a change. How do you change something as unique as Lethal Halo yet remain true to the vision? Well, you don’t.

 

As such, we will stop writing and performing as Lethal Halo at the end of the year, with no return date set.

 

We would like to thank everyone we have worked with, all the great bands and venues, and most of all, every fan, friend and family member who have supported us over the past 6 years!

 

In the meantime, the show must go on!

 

As announced previously, look for the Animanaut EP Nov. 18th 2014 worldwide. We will be supporting this release with a series of shows in November and December, as well as through online media. Come out and watch us perform new and classic Lethal Halo songs and grab a copy of Animanaut too!

 

TOUR DATES:

Nov 21st – Funky’s – Vancouver BC
Nov 28th – Cambie – Esquimalt/Victoria BC
Nov 29th – McKinney’s – Powell River BC
Dec 12th – Rickshaw – Vancouver BC

 

Look for members pursuing their own respective projects!
Doomsday Machine – Arch Enemy Tribute (Emine Topcu, Allan Heppner)
88 Mile Trip (Hugo Gould-Marks)
Azzurri Design & Media, Allan Heppner Drums & various projects, My Mother The Carjacker (Allan Heppner)

 

On behalf of the Lethal Halo family,
we thank you all and will miss you!

AVAILABLE ONLINE NOVEMBER 18, 2014 WORLDWIDE

 

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE***

 

LETHAL HALO “Animanaut” – New Album Details

Front cover for 2014 EP "Animanaut"

“The soul traveller is eternal. Where one chapter ends, another begins. So it repeats.”

 

Oct 30, 2014 — Canadian melodic metal ensemble, LETHAL HALO have revealed today the full details for their new release. The 4-track self-produced EP will be titled “Animanaut” and be made available online November 18, 2014. Physical copies will also be made available at live shows and through the band’s various online outlets.

 

The recording is the culmination the band’s growth since their 2011 album, “Process of Progress”. Among the many changes the core of the band has experienced is the inclusion of vocalist Andrew Bailey and bassist/backing vocalist Gary Carter. The dichotomy of influences and personalities helped develop the band’s modern melodic metal tendencies with a more progressive approach. The band worked with Mike Rogerson & Cam Boyer at Harbourside IT in North Vancouver to put together this piece of the band’s history. This is a state of change; a theme that runs through the EP and the band as a whole.

 

Following the November 18 worldwide (digital) release, the band will embark on a short 2-leg Canadian tour in direct support of the release in late November. Preliminary local shows and subsequent media are planned for post-tour.

‘Process of Progress’ now FREE – EP in the works! http://www.lethalhalo.com/newspress/?p=513 http://www.lethalhalo.com/newspress/?p=513#comments Tue, 15 Apr 2014 19:13:18 +0000 http://www.lethalhalo.com/newspress/?p=513 To mark the 3rd anniversary of the release of ‘Process of Progress’, we’ve decided to give it away for FREE on Bandcamp!

Process of Progresshttp://lethalhalo.bandcamp.com/album/process-of-progress

That’s right – hit the above link, go to the digital download, hit ‘Name Your Price’, and put in a big fat ‘0’ if you feel like it (or not!), and bam – instant free download of some amazing metal. The very same metal you’ll hear us draw from live – the very same metal we want you all singing along with; there’s no excuses, now!

Part of the reason we’re doing this is to let you know that we’re nearing the end of pre-production for an upcoming transitionary EP, including songs that were partially written before our new vocalist and bassist, Andrew and Gary, joined early last year.

You may have already heard pieces of this upcoming EP live over the past 9 months, including video and audio snippets on our YouTube channel – something you’ll want to keep your eyes and ears on as there may be some surprises in the coming weeks.

While the EP is about transitions, we’re excited, because there are already plans in place for a follow up full album of all-new material, new merch, new tours, and even a new website! (Allan has a lot on his plate)

From the fire in our hearts and minds, burns a passion unrivalled. http://www.lethalhalo.com/newspress/?p=480 http://www.lethalhalo.com/newspress/?p=480#comments Fri, 31 Jan 2014 05:31:44 +0000 http://www.lethalhalo.com/newspress/?p=480 Unfortunately, so does pizza sauce on the roof of your mouth (we’re still recovering from the Olympia Pizza show).

Take unto you, this chili pepper of awesomeness, this tender morsel of depraved insanity…

…these two choice slabs of molten metal.

Catharsis by Pizza http://www.lethalhalo.com/newspress/?p=466 http://www.lethalhalo.com/newspress/?p=466#comments Wed, 08 Jan 2014 22:41:48 +0000 http://www.lethalhalo.com/newspress/?p=466 The past few months have been busy on the home front – brief holidays aside, we even coalesced for a jam the day after Boxing Day.  We’ve been working on material, and actually feeding Allan and Gary in-ear click tracks to help keep everything tight and glued down (along with a fancy new strobe tuner, because we’re professional, or something).

 

All this reclusion takes its toll, however, and the itch to get out and play is incessant, like a bad rash.  So we’re being naughty and scratching that rash, to make it bleed crimson.

 

We’re playing a show.  At a pizza place.  Because nothing is more metal than biting into a slice of pizza, burning the roof of your mouth with the nuclear fire of death (also pizza sauce), and headbanging through the pain and blinding tears of your own suffering.  Catharsis by pizza.

More Shows – August & October 2013! http://www.lethalhalo.com/newspress/?p=451 http://www.lethalhalo.com/newspress/?p=451#comments Fri, 26 Jul 2013 23:16:08 +0000 http://www.lethalhalo.com/newspress/?p=451 After the fun we had at Battlefest, we’ve figured it’s time to keep getting out there and seeing you guys, even as we’re working on some super-secret projects in the background. What super-secret projects? If we told you, they wouldn’t be super-secret, now, would they?

 

Don’t worry, though – you’ll have plenty of opportunities to see us live in the meantime!

 

First up, our good buddies in One Life Animal are kicking off a tour for their debut full-length album “Sleep and His Older Brother Death”, and we’ll be helping send them off this Thursday, August 8th at Funky Winkerbeans, 37 W Hastings, Vancouver, along with Sinmobile and Grizzly Bones.

$10 at the door, check out the Facebook event here for more details.

 

There’s also rumours abound that we may be helping other, quite popular buddies of ours kick off *their* album tour later in August as well! Who and when? Oh, you’ll have to wait a bit more for that one.  So many bands doing new albums and tours these days. Hmmm… makes you wonder.

 

Second (or third?), we’re playing

The Devil’s Masquerade – an ALL AGES show

at The Columbia, 530 Columbia Street in New Westminster, right before Halloween, on Saturday, October 26th.

 

Along with:

 

…and of course, us! Tickets $10 in advance, or $20 at the door – yes, there IS a presale for this, and we’d be happy to be the ones selling you those tickets (wink wink, nudge nudge).

— Gary

Can’t express enough how happy we were to see so many smiling faces in the crowd last night for our first show back, you guys made our night and quite possibly our month lol. Every band went on a murderous rampage and it was a true honor to share the stage with you all. Mournir, Iron Kingdom, Omega Crom, Scythia, Unleash The Archers… I think we can all agree that was a SICK show.

As you know, we have not only been working on new material for our new album, but we also have new musicians joining our family. Maybe you haven’t heard from us lately, but rest assured we weren’t that silent in our jam space ;) And we are stoked to have the opportunity to present you some of the goodies we have been working on and introduce you our new bandmates!
