Set to Release New Album, ‘Almost Heaven’, in the US on
January 24th, 2012
Swindon, UK’s THE DEAD LAY WAITING (TDLW)
is unveiling two more U.S. exclusive tracks from their upcoming album, Almost
Heaven, releasing in the U.S. with Rising Records on January 24th,
2012. MetalUnderground.com is currently streaming the track
‘Always Ask Why’, and SkullsNBones.com is streaming the track ‘Choke On Your
Words’. Check out both tracks now and stay tuned to hear more tracks from TDLW in
the coming weeks!
One of the
most memorable moments of recording Almost Heaven was
the title track itself and having Barry Clayton (the voice behind Iron
Maiden’s Number Of The Beast) join TDLWin the studio as the narrator. When the band
initially discussed having Barry Clayton on the record, they didn’t know where
to start and whether he would even agree to the task ahead. But after much
effort the band eventually tracked Barry down and thankfully he agreed to
participate. The band would like to send their deepest sympathies
to his friends and family. May he rest in peace.
Almost Heaven was released in June 2011
in the UK, featuring 14 tracks and 60 minutes of pulsating music. The band’s
first music video from the album, ‘The Days I’m Gone,’ reached #6 in the Scuzz
TV playlist, and the band is planning to release a second video for the track
‘Burnt to Ashes’.
With a fan base growing, the band is ready to take on
anything anywhere and perform their bone-crushing live performance across the
world.

“Swindon youngsters THE DEAD LAY WAITING have
crept into view from out of nowhere. Performers at last year’s Download
Festival (and returning this year) and nominated for a heap of Best Band
awards, this black-clad five-piece shred and headbang in the vein of Bring Me
The Horizon.”
- Terrorizer Magazine
“Unleashing a hard as nails racket with ruthless precision,
arriving on a storm of thunderous riffs and boiling vitriol.”
- KERRANG! Magazine
“Their music is more extreme – plunging, powerful and raw –
with really grooving sense of grind at times that rears its head regularly.
What you get is the sense of a band striving to be a little outside of the
norm, and carrying it off well. Almost Heaven is a convincing
way to begin what should be a triumphant march.”
- Metal Hammer Magazine
