American head Charge - Return after a long absence!

American head Charge have been resurrected from the dead!

American head Charge have been resurrected from the dead after having survived severe addictions, countless tours, the major label minefield, and the death of guitarist Bryan Ottoson, they have returned to create new music and decimate crowds across the globe. Following the 2007 deactivation of the band due to reasons that aren’t terribly interesting. The classic line-up of Cameron Heacock (Vocals), Chad Hanks (Bass), Justin Fowler (Keyboard), Chris Emery (Drums) and Karma Cheema (Guitar) is back! To solidify their return they've added guitarist and Ministry / Lords of Acid alumni Sin Quirin to round out the lineup.

In November 2011 the band quietly embarked on a ten date US midwest tour, dubbed American Head Charge’s 'Tourette', that saw them triumphantly returning to markets they hadn't played since their earliest days. The run concluded with a Sold Out!!! show at the 1,200 capacity primetime in Burnsville, MN. In the middle of the tour the band took a day off to record live to tape four new songs and a cover of the Patti Smith classic 'Rock 'n' Roll N**ger'.

These five songs were formally christened the 'Shoot' EP, were recorded by Don Debiase at Studio D Productions in Cleveland, OH and mixed by Dave Fortman (Slipknot, Mudvayne, Ugly kid Joe) at Balance Productions in New Orleans, LA. The artwork fort the 'Shoot' EP was created by Sam 'Mister Sam' Shearon

"We're extremely proud of this little gem. For an EP, it was a long, arduous process that spanned five states and six studios, but we persevered and succeeded.This is our first major step back into the game, and the next step in serving up a full-length American head Charge record. The heavy music scene is even worse off than we left it six years ago. We're looking to rectify that." - Chad Hanks

'Shoot' will be self released by the band on CD and digitally on July 23rd 2013.
