Tickets are now available for MILLION DEAD at Rock City!
Million Dead came together in London, mid-2001 consisting of Cameron Dean (guitar) (replaced by Tom Fowler in 2004), Julia Ruzicka (bass), Ben Dawson (drums) and Frank Turner (singer). Catapulting into the
rock/punk/hardcore scenes of the time, they toured relentlessly across the UK and Europe supporting Cave In, 80’s Matchbox B-line Disaster, The Icarus Line, Alec Empire, Funeral For A Friend and Pitchshifter as well as their own headline shows. Their singles gained plays across Radio 1 from John Peel, Mike Davies, Mary Ann Hobbs, Zane Lowe and Steve Lamacq and their videos A-listed on MTV2. Debut album ‘A Song To Ruin’ (2003) reached the Top 20 of the Independent Chart and was described by Kerrang! Editor as: “Jaw-droppingly fiery, punk-fuelled noise laced with intelligence and soul…” and by The Independent as “A quite incredible debut.” After a nomination for Best Newcomer at the Kerrang! Awards, Million Dead released second album ‘Harmony No Harmony’ in 2005 but even though the band’s popularity and success were at an all-time high, they announced their split towards the end of that year.
