LAWNMOWER DETH REUNITE TO OPEN FOR BULLET FOR MY VALENTINE

LAWNMOWER DETH, the long-defunct late '80s/early '90s English comedy/thrash
metal band which released three-and-a-half well-regarded albums, will
reunite for a one-off appearance as the opening act for BULLET FOR MY
VALENTINE on November 15 at Alexandra Palace in London, England. Also
scheduled to appear are LACUNA COIL, BLEEDING THROUGH and BLACK TIDE.

Commented LAWNMOWER DETH: "We are aware that we will stand out like a sore
thumb on this lineup, but to be honest we are really happy to have been
offered the chance to get back together again play such a venue with these
bands.

"We would like to offer our gratitude to BULLET FOR MY VALENTINE (and their
crew) for this opportunity... to be honest, it's not really sunk in yet!

We have managed to get everyone together now... even Mr Flymo [a.k.a.
drummer Chris Flint] who up until recently seemed to have vanished off the
face of the earth! (I suspect he's been running the Mower Liberation Front
from a secret location in the deepest depths of Warsop).

"So the next step is to start rehearsals... it's been 13 or 14 years since
any of us played in a band, so it's going to be fun!

"What we have agreed on so far is that the majority of our set will be from
[1990's] 'Ooh Crikey It's... Lawnmower Deth'... seeing as no one liked the
other stuff :)

"So there you have it... I'll keep posting blogs to keep you all up to date
on how things are progressing, we may even post some clips of rehearsals as
they progress."

LAWNMOWER DETH's third, and final, album "Billy", was released in 1993 on
EARACHE RECORDS.
