10th May 2017

Diamond Head have released a brand new video for the song 'Diamonds' which is teken from their acclaimed 2016 self-titled album. The Heavy Metal pioneers have also annouced more tour dates.

Vocalist Rasmus Andersen told us:

"'Diamonds' is a song that pays homage to the legacy of the band. It features vintage and modern performance footage from Diamond Head's career. It reflects on the band's fourty years and gives lyrical nods that point to some of Diamond Head's best songs."

And here is 'Diamonds'...



The video, created by Emmy Award nominee Roman at Snakejam Studios, precedes the band's upcoming return to the United States for the first of two short runs that include performances at Rocklahoma Festival on May 27th and Psycho Circus in Las Vegas on August 19th.

"We are really looking forward to Rocklahoma which will be our largest US festival to date," notes Rasmus. "We hope to see and meet loads of fans on our shows between the 17th and 27th of May. We will be playing songs from our new album and classic catalogue along with one or two surprises for the hard core fans.”"

Released via Dissonance Productions last June, Diamond Head is the first album to feature Andersen on vocals. Its release ended an eight-year silence for the New Wave Of British Heavy Metal icons.

The album won MetalTalk's 2016 Album Of The Year, as you can see here.
