From the venue:
With a lineup that currently consists of vocalist/guitarist/ringleader Blackie Lawless, longtime contributing drummer Frankie Banali and bassist Mike Duda, and newcomer Darrell Roberts (who joined the band just prior to the Unholy Terror U.S. Tour), Dying For The World was recorded and mixed at Blackie’s studio in Los Angeles. The album was actually inspired by letters received from troops who fought in the Gulf War.
Blackie explains: “Our motivation for this record was prefaced by letters sent to us from the tank divisions during the Gulf War, where the troops would actually go into battle blaring ‘F Like A Beast’ and ‘Wild Child.’ After the events on 9/11, we felt we would give them a fresh batch; in essence, we’ve literally made an album to go kill people by.”
Consisting of songs entitled “Shadow Man,” “Hell For Eternity,” “Trail Of Tears,” “Rubberman,” “My Wicked Heart,” “Stone Cold Killers,” “Hallowed Ground,” “Hallowed Ground #5 (acoustic),” “Black Bone Torso,” and “Revengence,” Dying For The World emphasizes a method of dealing with anger. A native of Staten Island, Blackie elaborates: “This problem isn’t going to go away; we WILL have to deal with the Middle East eventually. There is no longer an ‘if’, it’s ‘when’!”s ‘when’!
