Rising From the Rubble- ChCh Fundraiser CD

Deadboy Records & The Kiwi Metal Bar Proudly Present RISING FROM THE RUBBLE Two Disc Compilation of New Zealand Metal & Hardcore

"In a genre largely stereotyped and pigeonholed as offensive, ignorant
and apathetic, an array of New Zealand's most prolific
and important heavy music artists are making a difference and leading by
example in a joint effort presented by Kiwi FM's 'The Kiwi Metal Bar'
and leading alternative music label Deadboy Records on a new compilation
release entitled 'Rising From The Rubble'.

The compilation album features 32 tracks of hardcore and metal from
Aotearoa's leading genre acts such as In Dread Response,
Subtract, Sinate and The House of Capricorn to name a few.

Matt Bell from The Kiwi Metal Bar like many New Zealander's, was deeply
affected by the devastation of the 2011 earthquakes in Christchurch and
saw a need to support a cause that is so close to home.

Naturally, Matt began talking with bands featured on his heavy-focussed
speciality radio show and others in the live circuit to pitch the idea
of a fund-raising compilation album with all proceeds going to support
those who have suffered in the horrific earthquakes.

Before long, many of the country's top headbangers were lining up to
lend a hand and selflessly offer royalty-free tracks to contribute to
the double disc effort.

Deadboy Records were approached about a handful of bands from the label
and ideas about sponsorship were discussed, which eventually led to the
label offering their full support with the backing of major distributor
Universal Music to release and distribute 'Rising From The Rubble'
nationwide with all profits being donated directly to the New Zealand
Red Cross to support earthquake victims and provide relief in
Canterbury.

After many months of planning, negotiating and working together on what
is to be the heaviest slab of New Zealand music to ever grace
CD shelves, 'Rising From The Rubble' hits stores nationwide Monday 22
August.

Be sure to pick up a copy, knowing that your money will be going
directly to those who need in most."
