Crimson Steel: Album Release w/James Rivera's Sabbath Judas Sabbath/Knightmare/Aittala/Lilith Rising

If you’re into real-deal heavy metal and not whatever the algorithm is trying to sell you this week, this one matters! Crimson Steel takes the stage for a special album release performance, featuring James Rivera, the legendary vocalist of Helstar. James Rivera has fronted other bands Flotsam and Jetsam, Vicious Rumors, Seven Witches, and Destiny's End.
Crimson Steel; U.S. Power Metal
Known for their pure traditional heavy metal energy. Sharp riffs, soaring vocals, and a sound rooted in the genre’s golden era, but delivered with urgency and purpose. If you miss the days when metal was fast, melodic, and meant to be played loud in a room full of people, this will hit home. James Rivera will also join the band on stage to sing "Bleed Into One", his duet with Tina from the new album. This song has never been performed live, so you do not want to miss this!
James Rivera's Sabbath Judas Sabbath;
A special performance for the first time in N.C. A tribute to Black Sabbath and Judas Priest.

This is a full-spectrum heavy metal lineup. No gimmicks, no trends, just volume, riffs, and sweat. Perfect for longtime metalheads and newer fans who want to understand where all of this came from in the first place!
