On Tour!
WARRIOR SOUL will celebrate the 30th anniversary of its "The Space Age Playboys" album by embarking on an eight-date U.K. tour this summer. WARRIOR SOUL states: "These shows are going to be epic. "If high-energy rock 'n' roll is your thing, then this is a show not to be missed. "Not only will the band play 'Space Age Playboys', but expect a few other classics thrown in the mix."
In 2005, "The Space Age Playboys" was ranked No. 323 in Rock Hard magazine's book of "The 500 Greatest Rock & Metal Albums Of All Time." METALLICA's Lars Ulrich has repeatedly praised "The Space Age Playboys" as one of his favorite albums, telling "The Metallica Report" in a 2023 interview:
"WARRIOR SOUL is underappreciated. The record that I go back to, but a lot of their early stuff is all great, but there's an intensity and a vibe around 'The Space Age Playboys' album that came out, I think, around — what? — '94, give or take a year, and songs like 'Rocket Engines', 'Let's Get Wasted', 'The Pretty Faces', 'Rotten Soul', 'Fightin' The War', 'The Drug' — all these songs are incredible. There's a sound and a vibe on that record that still perseveres close to 30 years later, and there's an energy in that record and right in that zone between hard rock, heavy metal, but a lot of punk attitude and a lot of kind of not giving a shit and the two-finger salute and really kind of rebellious contrarian energy that that record in particular sounds as fresh today as it did a couple, three decades ago when it came out.I started going down the rabbit hole of YouTube live videos and found a clip from London where they were playing in a big club theater where they were playing…. The last one I was looking at was 'Let's Get Wasted', which is such a great track. The sync was a little off, but the music and the energy was definitely much appreciated."
