MELDRUM'S latest single, ''PAID'' is available now on iTunes
(http://itunes.apple.com/us/album/paid-single/id564528537).
''PAID'' is the third single to be released from MELDRUM's long awaited third
album ''LIFER'' due out this fall via REVERSED RECORDS. ''PAID'' is
a tongue in cheek poke at the music industry and the one hit wonders that think
they have it made. MELDRUM vocalist Michele Madden has this to
say about the single ''A warning to the wanna be's not to mix their ambition
with their blinding lack of ability...just sayin''.
MELDRUM's first two singles ''A TOAST TO ROMANCE'' and
''BLACKENED BLUE'' are out now on iTunes (http://itunes.apple.com/us/album/a-toast-to-romance-single/id549289572).
The album was produced by producer/engineer ROB SHALLCROSS (Strapping Young
Lad, GWAR, Zimmers Hole, West of Hell) and GENE HOGLAN (Testament, Dethklok,
Death, Dark Angel). Check out MELDRUM online at http://www.facebook.com/MeldrumOfficial

MELDRUM passed away at the age of 39 in May 2008. "LIFER" stands as a
proud tribute to MICHELLE and her lifetime commitment to creating and
performing music. MICHELLE wrote the material for the album with drummer GENE
HOGLAN (Testament, Death, Dark Angel, Dethklok), along with new members
bassist/guitarist LAURA CHRISTINE (Warface) and vocalist MICHELE MADDEN (Tourette's).
MICHELLE'S untimely demise before any of her guitar tracks
for "Lifer" were able to be laid down led the three remaining members
to come together in tribute to her, to honour Michelle's vision of the album,
with Laura Christine playing the majority of the rhythm and bass guitars, as
well as all the leads. Partial proceeds from the album will go to MICHELLE'S
son Jake Thomas who she left behind when she passed.
MELDRUM has toured worldwide with Lemmy Kilmister's
Motorhead, Zakk Wylde's Black Label Society, Sepultura, Danzig, Nashville
Pussy, as well as sharing the stage with many more. Touting a combination of
mammoth vocal styles along with aggressively melodic vocals, mind bending
guitar riffs and a rhythm section that creates fiercely bombastic grooves, this
is what gives MELDRUM their unique, cutting edge sound.
