Doc Holliday Takes the Shotgun – “King of the Moon” Video + Tour Dates
Horror-surf rockers Doc Holliday Takes The Shotgun are back with the video to their second single from newly released EP, Odd/Even. The swampy, blues track titled ‘King Of The Moon’ starts off with lumbering shuffled drums, a rolling bassline and cutting guitar hooks. The guitars quickly pick up the pace into a distorted driving blues jam as the fiery vocals rant about being the king of nothing – a satire on individuals who pride themselves on trivial things, all while being matched with a fitting psychedelic video. ‘King of the Moon’ was recorded and produced by Chris Rollans (Lanie Lane – To The Horses) at Rec Studios. The band’s very own frontman, Jack Booker, can take a bow for directing and producing the new clip – bravo!

Live Review | The Rise Of Brotality Tour @ The Hi-Fi, Sydney – September 14, 2014
Review by Scott Singh
Not many people can say they’ve spend a good chunk of their Sunday night listening to a diverse group of metal & hardcore acts. Luckily, the faithful who venture out to The Hi-Fi in Sydney don’t have that problem. Bands from three nations united to put on an impressive display of talent and vigor. It proved to be one of the best nights held at The Hi-Fi.
First up and unfortunately for the last time, Heights appeared on stage to let loose a relentless barrage of deep growls and prolonged chugging. The band gave off an aura of indifference, really not giving a damn for the stage, the setting or the venue. It was their last time to perform for their fans and they made sure the night would be owned by them and them alone.

When Cannibal Corpse last played Sydney two years ago at the Manning Bar, punters were left bruised, broken and scarred. If the line up for tonight’s show at the Metro is anything to go by, there’s sure to be a room full of battered corpses by the end of the night.
