Metal Church return with their 13th studio album, “Dead To Rights”, scheduled for release on April 10 via Rat Pak Records (America), Reaper (Europe/UK) and Rubicon (Japan). The album marks the first release from the band’s latest lineup, featuring founding guitarist Kurdt Vanderhoof alongside longtime guitarist Rick Van Zandt, joined by bass icon David Ellefson, powerhouse drummer Ken Mary and dynamic new vocalist Brian Allen. From the aggressive opening assault of “Brainwash Game” to the riff-driven finale “My Wrath,” Metal Church prove they still possess the same relentless drive that has earned them fans for over four decades. Tracks such as “Deep Cover Shakedown,” “The Show,” and “Wasted Time” deliver the signature sound the band has long been known for. The album’s first single, “F.A.F.O.”, was released last November, with its accompanying video surpassing 400,000 views to date. Dead To Rights was produced by Vanderhoof and mixed and mastered by Zeuss at Planet Z.
