Massive Wagons – fire things up with new single ‘Sleep Forever’

Chief rock squad Massive Wagons are back with a brand new shot of musical adrenaline to get you fired up, dropping forthcoming album opener “Sleep Forever” today.

The head-bangin’, top-tappin’ track defies fans to stand still and comes from their forthcoming seventh studio album Earth To Grace – set for release on November 8 via Earache Records.

Frontman Barry ‘Baz’ Mills exclaims, “When the lads started riffing like that, and Alex came in with those drums, I knew this was gonna be an absolute killer and I loved the song immediately! I was away on holiday when Matt sent the final mix through along with a couple other tracks, but I couldn’t stop playing ‘Sleep Forever’ – I must have played it 10 times! And although I was stoked with the others he sent too, when I heard this I knew we’d really scratched an itch I had. Aggressive, hard, fast… it’s like Motörhead meets Rainbow. It has everything to me: huge riffs, gnarly guitars, and Alex’s drums are just blistering! Then you throw in the solos from Steve and Adam… it’s got it all I think – a proper headbanger! It was always going to be the album opener, a 100% kick in the face!

Meet the band at a record store near you this November to celebrate Earth To Grace! Get your store-bought copy of the album (including the indie exclusive orange vinyl and an exclusive CD edition with 2x bonus tracks) and perhaps you’ll witness a few acoustic tracks from the new album too!
