Biography
‘The majesty of a lordship, the power and velocity of an electrical charge and the beastly ruggedness
of a scavenging vulture’
LORD VOLTURE are a Dutch heavy metal outfit in the tradition of Judas Priest, Iron Maiden and Iced
Earth, led by vocalist David Marcelis. After an explosive take-off in 2010 with the release of debut
album ‘Beast Of Thunder’ (feat. Jeff Waters of Annihilator) the band rapidly rises to find themselves
in the frontier of Dutch Heavy Metal. With their sophomore release ‘Never Cry Wolf’ (feat. Sean Peck
of Cage) in 2011 the band set their definitive style while increasingly gaining recognition everywhere
they’re heard. The album thunders through the global metal community and reviewers worldwide
count the album among the best releases of 2011. This massive exposure opens doors to many
festivals and support slots and, as a result, LORD VOLTURE have shared the stage with Y&T, Primal
Fear, Firewind, Circle II Circle, Tim Ripper Owens, Blaze Bayley, Vicious Rumors, Tygers Of Pan Tang
and numerous others, while touring through the larger part of Europe, including UK, Ireland, the
Netherlands, Belgium, Germany, Denmark, Estonia, Latvia, Poland, Czech Republic, Slovakia,
Hungary, Austria, Switzerland, Italy, Spain and France. A new head-on LORD VOLTURE metal album
entitled “Will To Power” was released in September 2014 on Mausoleum Records. The album
contains 9 killer songs and a guest appearance by former Megadeth guitarist Chris Poland. Sharper
than ever, the band are ready to unleash their third chapter of high-pitched power vocals and mind
boggling guitar solos onto the world. For all who bear a heart of steel, LORD VOLTURE is a definite
MUST!

proves that." (9/10) - Metal Temple

you love rock driven metal and buy this album!!!" (8/10) - Reviews By Jon
