As a founding member of both MANOWAR and the DICTATORS, guitaristRoss “The Boss” Friedman needs no introduction. But it’s been a while since the metal masses heard from Ross, leading some to wonder if or when he would return. The wait is now over, as his newly formed outfit,DEATH DEALER, is ready to rock and take the world by storm, with their debut album, “Warmaster”.
“The DEATH DEALER sound is a mighty combination of five very talented, seasoned musicians,” explains Ross. “It’s classic power metal with the brutal edge of thrash, speed, and precision.” And when he says the band is comprised of talented and seasoned musicians, he’s not kidding, asDEATH DEALER also includes vocalist Sean Peck (CAGE), guitarist Stu Marshall (producer and guitarist for such voices as Udo Dirkschneiderand Steve Grimmett), bassist Mike Davis (HALFORD, LIZZY BORDEN), and drummer Kenny “Rhino” Earl (MANOWAR).
Formed last year via correspondence over the Internet, as soon as work commenced on the material, Ross knew he had met his metallic match. “Well, after they sent the first tune over, I was blown away, then Stu andSean tell me they want me to join this band, called DEATH DEALER. I say, ‘Who else is in the band? They say, ‘Rhino on drums.’ I’m in! Stugoes, ‘It was either you or we would have asked KK Downing to be on guitar.’ Wow!”
As evidenced by such tunes as “Death Dealer”, “Never to Kneel” and“The Devil’s Mile”, for fans of authentic, no-holds-barred, manly heavy metal, “Warmaster” is an absolute godsend. And soon, DEATH DEALERwill be converting metalheads worldwide to their cause. “Our future plans? Obviously to put DEATH DEALER on the worldwide metal map, and to engage large crowds and render them shocked and satisfied,” says Ross.
