Trivium: one of 3 bands on RoadRage '05
RoadRage 2005!
Roadrunner's 25th Anniversary tour!

In celebration of Roadrunner Records' 25th anniversary, the 2005 RoadRage tour will feature 3 of the label's rising metal stars: Trivium, 3 Inches Of Blood and Still Remains. These acts represent the future of the metal genre.

A name that millions of people around the world have grown to trust and respect, Roadrunner Records developed the RoadRage tour as a way to give legions of metalheads around the world a chance to see the best and brightest that the label had to offer – in the past, featuring 36 Crazyfists, Killswitch Engage, Ill Nino, Chimaira, & Spineshank.

For the third time the RoadRage tour will do just that as the tour slams the United Kingdom from 01 to 18 May.

The group of bands that have been assembled for the 2005 RoadRage tour are the heaviest and most diverse in its history.

3 Inches Of Blood released their debut album Advance & Vanquish in late 2004 with dual vocals singing about vikings, pirates and knights slaying orcs!

Trivium's 'Ascendancy' album is released 14 March and it is so technical and hooky it is a wonder that the music is brought to you by guys aged between 19 and 22 years!? By the time the tour starts they will have toured with the likes of Slipknot, Dillinger Escape Plan, Danzig, Fear Factory & Chimaira.

Still Remains is one of the newest members of the Roadrunner family and they will release their Roadrunner debut album 'Of Love And Lunacy' on 02 May. Produced by GGGarth, it is already garnering rave reviews.

Moshpits will be operational at the following urban stops:

01 May - Wulfrun Hall, Wolverhampton
02 May - University, Liverpool
03 May - Academy 3, Manchester
04 May - Garage, Glasgow
05 May - Barfly, Cardiff
10 May - Cockpit, Leeds
11 May - Rock City, Nottingham
12 May - Sugarmill, Stoke
13 May - Zodiac, Oxford
14 May - Concorde 2, Brighton
15 May - Arts Centre, Colchester
17 May - Wedgewood Rooms, Portsmouth
18 May - London Garage, London

Tickets will be flying shortly for the cheapest ever RoadRage fee of £7 (£9 London). Buckle up and get ready to enjoy the ride!
