London-based HNE\/CHERRY RED RECORDS.\u00a0 The first of three HELLION albums set for
release this year is a 2-disc anthology entitled TO HELLION AND BACK, which will
be released on April 1, 2014, and the first 1,000 copies will be autographed by
the band’s singer, ANN BOLEYN. <\/p>\n
TO HELLION AND BACK chronicles the band\u2019s beginnings from 1982, to the present,
and features new music from Hellion.\u00a0 In 1983, when the term \u201cfemale metal
singer\u201d did not exist, HELLION\u2019s demo recordings (released as a self-titled
Mini-LP) climbed to Number 6 in England\u2019s rock charts.\u00a0 In
America, HELLION however was regarded by the corporate music world as \u201ctoo
heavy\u201d for a band with a female singer.\u00a0 Despite never releasing an album on a
major record label, Hellion was the first female-fronted metal band to be
featured on MTV and VH-1 and was also the first U.S. metal band to perform in
the former-Soviet Union on a MONSTERS OF ROCK festival.<\/p>\n
TO HELLION AND BACK features a collection of fan-favourites, hard-to-find
recordings, and previously unreleased tracks.\u00a0 Among the collection are also two
songs that were produced by RONNIE JAMES DIO at the legendary SOUND
CITY recording studio.<\/p>\n
The musicians enlisted by powerhouse vocalist Ann Boleyn for the
new HELLION include drummer Simon Wright (AC\/DC, QUEENSR\u0178CHE, DIO, DIO
DISCIPLES), keyboardist Scott Warren (DIO, HEAVEN & HELL), Swedish import
bassist Bjorn Englen (YNGWIE MALMSTEEN, DIO DISCIPLES), and up-and-coming lead
guitarist Maxxxwell Carlisle.<\/p>\n
HELLION\u2019s new tracks were produced by legendary British studio icon Ken Scott,
who has produced iconic albums, including DAVID BOWIE’s “Hunky Dory”, “The Rise
And Fall Of Ziggy Stardust And The Spiders From Mars”, “Aladdin
Sane” and “Pinups”. A top producer at Abbey Road Studios, Scott is also
acknowledged as one of the five principal engineers for THE BEATLES.\u00a0 He has
engineered countless classic works, including GEORGE HARRISON’s “All Things Must
Pass”, ELTON JOHN’s “Madman Across The Water”, “Honky Chateau” and “Don’t Shoot
Me I’m Only The Piano Player.”\u00a0 Other credits include gold and platinum albums
by SUPERTRAMP, DAVID BOWIE, MISSING PERSONS, KANSAS, and more. Scott recently
said of the comparison between working with David Bowie and Ann Boleyn: “Working
with Bowie or working with Ann of HELLION, you’ve got sheer talent.\u201d
Acknowledging Boleyn as the driving force propelling the band, Scott notes:
“Over the years, the musicians have changed. The one musician that has always
been the same is Ann. So once again, it’s new musicians. The one constant thing
about HELLION is Ann, and her incredible voice.”<\/p>\n
Says Wright of working with Boleyn and HELLION: “She’s tried to stay true to
that heaviness and a certain darkness. She’s sticking to the same formula, just
different musicians though.”<\/p>\n
HELLION will tour in Europe, and the UK in 2014 and are expected to appear on a
number of major festivals. The cover artwork was designed by Italian
artist Gaetano Di Falco and inspired by the photography of P.G. Brunelli.<\/p>\n
