hapel Hill, North Carolina rockers VALIENT THORR will release their fifth album, "Stranger", on September 14 via long-time co-conspirators, Volcom Entertainment. The CD was produced, recorded and mixed by Jack Endino (NIRVANA, MUDHONEY, DWARVES, HIGH ON FIRE, TOXIC HOLOCAUST, and VALIENT THORR's prior album, "Immortalizer") at the Soundhouse Recording studios in Seattle, Washington. The first single off the album, "Doublecrossed", can be downloaded here.

"Stranger" is VALIENT THORR's fifth album in seven years — a considerable feat since the band has been averaging close to 250 shows a year for most of this time with acts as varied as MOTÖRHEAD, JOAN JETT AND THE BLACK HEARTS, EAGLES OF DEATH METAL, MASTODON, BARONESS, GOGOL BORDELLO, FU MANCHU, EARLY MAN and SKELETONWITCH.

If one were to imagine hearing a palpable buzz so engaging that it has its own gravitational pull, something so strong that as one is pulled closer, the buzz becomes a throb that seemingly doubles over on itself into infinity. This is the furious sound of VALIENT THORR, a band whose entire being is founded and powered on the force of one huge, mass, communal headbang that has the power to deliver a unifying moment of clarity. To get right down to it, "Stranger" fuses together the roots-rock, no-bullshit beginnings of "Stranded on Earth" and "Total Universe Man" with the laser-guided immediacy of "Legend Of The World" and the total metal shredding of "Immortalizer" into one supernova burst.

Touring relentlessly since 2001 after crash-landing in the North Carolina Triangle area, a place the band now calls home, VALIENT THORR has this year already criss-crossed the U.S. on the Volcom Tour with MASTODON, BETWEEN THE BURIED AND ME and BARONESS and is currently in the midst of a European tour that will keep them abroad through the end of July, before returning Stateside for a massive U.S. headline tour set to kick off in September.

Gaetan nous avait cache ca

yeaaaaaah j'adore ce groupe !

on s'en fout, mais j'ai remarqué hier qu'ils apparaissent dans le clip de rock out de motörhead

brother of steele a écrit :Gaetan nous avait cache ca

J'y ai pensé aussi !

jesus a écrit :on s'en fout, mais j'ai remarqué hier qu'ils apparaissent dans le clip de rock out de motörhead

Pour la peine :

Tiens... Manorhead n'a pas encore hurlé son amour pour ce groupe dans ce sujet ???

le clip de "Double Crossed":

excellent le clip par contre c'est pas la meilleure chanson que j'ai pu entendre d'eux (même si elle est sympas )

Bien d'accord.

En fait, suis-je le seul à penser que c'est le meilleur groupe de rock'n'roll de ces 10 dernières années ?

J'sais pas mais y'a du label 70's là-dedans

Je connaissais pas, bien sympa, rock'n'roll comme il faut, bonne attitude, quels sont leurs meilleurs skeuds?

Je te conseille vivement "Immortalizer" c'est une tuerie sans nom... franchement ce skeud m'a foutu une claque la première fois que je l'ai entendu : c'est original, frais, super accrocheur et bien barré ! je l'ai encore écouté aujourd'hui en rentrant du boulot d'ailleurs

et alors Metal B t'as creusé ce groupe ?

Et bien figure toi que je suis tombé sur le petit dernier en CD ce matin, mais je ne l'ai pas pris...
J'avais vu un de leur skeud en LP, du coup si celui sort également sous ce format, ça me branche davantage!

Chapel Hill, North Carolina hard rock heavyweights VALIENT THORR will release their sixth studio album, "Our Own Masters", on June 18 via Volcom Entertainment. Recorded at Ronnie Jone Sound Studios in Athens, Georgia and produced, engineered and mixed by Kyle Spence of experimental rockers HARVEY MILK, the CD shines a bright light on VALIENT THORR's singular sound, delivering twelve tracks of balls-to-the-wall rock that yearns to be played at full volume.

Formed in 2000, VALIENT THORR plays loud, fast heavy music — influenced by both metal and punk — that draws creatively from touchstones such as AC/DC, THIN LIZZY and the MC5 (MOTÖRHEAD might also be a point of reference here, though more in spirit than in sound). The band has a stranglehold on amped-up hard rock and stripped-down heavy metal, barnstorming stages across the world with its catchy, ass-kicking riffs, unmatched energy, fist-pumping anthems and hyper-agitated live show, led by front man and ringleader Valient Himself, whose highly entertaining, heady lyrics (the singer was once a college professor) become a call to arms for the band's legions of devoted fans — nicknamed the "Thorriors" — that assemble in chapters and track the band from show to show, town to town.

VALIENT THORR is a group that averages between 200 and 250 live shows a year, be it on stage as beloved headliners exposing the world to developing new acts (see ROYAL THUNDER, RED FANG) or criss-crossing the globe as special guests of peers such as MASTODON, MOTÖRHEAD and MISFITS.

"Our Own Masters" is a triumphant display of crescendo-ing riffs, rousing vocals and canyon-wide grooves and a record set to remind the world why VALIENT THORR's high-voltage concoction of rock, metal and punk and formidable reputation proceeds them for a reason. The record's wild, extraterrestrial cover artwork (seen below) is taken from a 1975 painting by John Aylward, father of VALIENT THORR drummer Jason Aylward.

"Our Own Masters" track listing:

01. Immaculate Consumption
02. Master Collider
03. Manipulation
04. No Strings Attached
05. Life Hands You Demons
06. Torn Apart
07. Cerberus
08. Good News Bad News
09. Insatiable
10. Crowd Pleaser
11. Nervous Energy
12. Call Off the Dogs

In celebration of the release of "Our Own Masters", VALIENT THORR will launch a U.S. headlining tour, set to kick off on June 12 in Charlotte, North Carolina. The two-dozen-city trek will run through July 6 and feature support from Los Angeles' GYPSYHAWK and Boston's RAMMING SPEED.

The mighty heavy metallers Valient Thorr have confirmed a July 29th release date for their Napalm Records debut and seventh full-length release. Old Salt is the anticipated follow up to 2013's Our Own Masters. Additional details including album art and tracklist have been revealed as well.

Valient Himself commented on the new album: "Old Salt wouldn't have happened if it wasn't for Eidan Thorr. He helmed this beast & put the wheels in motion. What is it about? If you ask me it's about stepping into the future as an artist while trying to anticipate what comes next using that old man logic that comes with age - that no one ever tells you about until it's time to say 'if I'd known then what I know now'. All the best old storytellers aren't just weaving you yarns. They are recounting from experiences. And believe me, we've had plenty of those in the last few years."

In support of the album, Valient Thorr will be hitting the road in North America on the 15 Years on Earth Tour. Joining them on the road will be Pears, Black Wizard and label-mates Hammer Fight. The tour kicks off May 25th in Asheville, NC and runs through July 13th in Baltimore, MD.

Valient Thorr's "Old Salt" will be released on July 29th - the band's Napalm Records debut and seventh full-length release overall.

Today the band has released a lyric video for the first single from "Old Salt" entitled "No Count Blues." Valient himself comments:

"Alahoyus Thorriors! If you pre-order the album today you get an instagrab of one of the tracks today! It's called 'No Count Blues.' It's a fast paced jam meant to help you shake off that feeling you get sometimes when the worlds beating you down. Shake it up & shake it out! Grab your copy here."
