A previously unreleased “metallized” cover version of the THIN LIZZY classic “Cold Sweat” from English metallers ATOMKRAFT, formed and led by vocalist/bassist Tony “Demolition” Dolan (VENOM), will be made available on a new limited-edition seven-inch single and mini-CD this summer via W.A.R. Productions.

* 7″ EP limited to 200 copies only comes in blue vinyl!

* MCD limited to 1000 copies only comes with two bonus tracks & one video clip.

According to Joe Matera, who makes a guest appearance on lead guitar on “Cold Sweat”, “This is a recording that was done around 2005 (I remember laying down my guitar solo around that time). It was going to be released back then but due to circumstances at the time, it got shelved.”

“I actually really liked this version of “Cold Sweat” a lot. Cool solo also. I also liked the way Atomkraft made the song their own with the arrangement and production. Very cool” – Scott Gorham (THIN LIZZY)

Official statement from the band is as follows.

“We have decided to change our name.
It was brought to our attention that a band who named themselves after our 6th Venom album, Prime Evil had decided to get back together after we had announced our intentions. We had already signed our deal with Scarlet and had appearances booked but we have decide to cancel those shows as our belief is that EVERY band should have a chance and we do not wish to exclude anyone so we have made this change. We apologise to the Venom Legions and fans who chose our name but we hope you support this/our decision…… and so….Welcome to the MPIRE of EVIL!”

 

Mpire of Evil features Tony Dolan – former bassist and vocalist of  Atomkraft and Venom.
