News.RttP{Cruel Hand posts new tracks to myspace}

For those of you who have been anxiously awaiting, Cruel Hand has finally posted a new song on MySpace! The track, titled "Cruel Hand", will be on the band's forthcoming releases: the Cruel Hand EP (available on 7"/Digital on June 22nd) and Lock & Key LP (full-length CD/LP/Digital available July 27, 2010). Bridge Nine launched pre-orders today for the Cruel Hand EP which can be found at http://www.B9Store.com/CruelHand Head over to http://www.MySpace.com/CruelHand now and check out the new song!

Cruel Hand's new material is full of just as many catchy, metallic riffs as mosh parts and is a heavy mix of influences like Madball, Leeway, Cro-Mags, Metallica, and so on. Their soon-to-be-released third full-length album Lock & Key is one of the most well-rounded hardcore albums in recent memory and is more than just a progression of Cruel Hand's past material, but a defining release for the band. Since the release of Cruel Hand's B9 debut Prying Eyes in 2008, the band has been a touring machine and one of the tightest live bands in the hardcore world. Cruel Hand is currently out on the road in Japan with Bane and label-mates Ceremony and will be heading to the UK and Europe later this summer. Stay tuned for North American Tour news coming soon!
