NEWS: Black Star Riders release latest video for second single ahead of Heavy Fire album

BLACK STAR RIDERS are set to release their forthcoming album Heavy Fire on February 3rd, 2017 via Nuclear Blast Entertainment.

Today, the band premiere the new video for second single, 'Testify Or Say Goodbye'.

Frontman Ricky Warwick comments on the track: "Power, glory, rock n roll with a whole lotta soul.. You gotta testify or say goodbye, Tell me no secrets, tell me no lies, Get up on the stand look me straight in the eye, You gotta testify or say goodbye ...
"Kinda says it all really!!!"

Check out the video at the end of this post.

From the immediate riffs of album opener 'Heavy Fire' to the instant hooks of first single 'When The Night Comes In', from the dirty bass groove of 'Thinking About You Could Get Me Killed' to the familiar and trademark dual guitars of Gorham and Johnson on 'Testify Or Say Goodbye', Heavy Fire is an album that will further cement BSR's reputation as one of the world's premiere rock acts.

Following on from their acclaimed albums 'All Hell Breaks Loose' and 'The Killer Instinct' which have paved the way for Black Star Riders to be recognised as a power force in the modern day of Rock n¹ Roll, 'Heavy Fire' will be once again released by Nuclear Blast Entertainment.
