New Zealand powerhouse Shihad will release their 10th album ‘Old Gods’ in August.
The first Shihad album ‘Chrun’ was released in 1993. 28 years on Shihad still has the same line-up of singer, guitarist Jon Toogood, drummer Tom Larkin, guitarist Phil Knight and bassist Karl Kippenberger.
I know it’s just rock’n’roll at the end of the day, but it’s my artform, and I’ve got a really fucking powerful band to play with, making powerful music, so I’m going to write about that shit,” Jon Toogood says.
The previous Shihad album was ‘FVEY’ in 2014.
Shihad will tour Old Dogs in October.
