Take a load of this!

After a devastating break-up, young artist band Satan's Angels reformed and have made a deep comeback. They're returning to pick up from where they left off, which was being amazing. The press was lucky enough to get an interview with the band. "It really has been a long time coming. But I'm gald it was worth it in the end." says frontman Francois Boumoussa. "We really wanted our fans to be proud of us again. I swear we won't let you guys down!". He was very excited to be on the road again. As a matter of fact, they recently went on a 2 weeks summer tour in July with Discharge, a new band. They had fun, and Discharge was able to second that.
"We were all amazed to see how many people across the country loved the band." says Alan Krim, the GM of Satan's Angels' record label Spin City Records, who is also a record producer. He calims that he "did a good job by pushing them to an unknown limit." What really mattered was the faith that stayed alive in the fanbase. When the band broke up, almost everyone was buying old albums. "None of us expected to be more popular after we split." says Rob LaPiedra, the band's rhythmist. "War of the Apocalyptics reached an all time high. Good for us."
Beginning with the heartfelt rage of "Breathe" to the pulse raising aggression of "Relocated", War of the Apocalyptics became a suprisingly popular album for everyone. "It was our debut album" drummer Dan Lee added. "And it only took 2 years after we actually formed." They followed up that same year with Pillar of Fire. The album wasn't as heavy as their first, but it still got you in the right mood to bang your head. The album begins with "Take It All Away", which ha a soft tone to it. Things get heavier when it reaches "Run and Hide". You better prepare for the fury of "Death To The Oppressor", an incredibly angry song about substance abuse, which is the "oppressor". "They really have made a mark in the industry" says Nick Mateyo, President of Spin City Records and runs the band with everything, such as selling albums and recording them. "I'm very proud of them."
They released Hell's Gates, their first EP, in January. The song didn't go far,
