MIGHTY bearers of the stadium-rock torch, Airbourne hrelease of their fourth
studio album, ‘Breakin' Outta Hell’ – their first since signing a
worldwide deal with Spinefarm Records. The album has been produced by Bob
Marlette, who helmed the very first Airbourne outing, and engineered / mixed by
Mike Fraser, whose CV includes some of the biggest names in rock (Aerosmith,
AC/DC, etc.).
Driven by a formidable work-hard/play-hard ethic, and keen to entertain on
the grandest of scales, this award-winning quartet (formed in regional Australia
in 2003) have been proudly walking the rock ‘n’ roll path since their early
teenage years, inspired by the music’s great and glorious past, yet
determined to move things forward on a wave of blurred limbs & boundless
energy.
Led into action by brothers Joel & Ryan O’Keeffe (vocalist / lead
guitarist & drummer, respectively; the line-up is completed by David Roads
on guitar and Justin Street on bass), the four have spent the past 10 years
establishing themselves as a true force of nature – living on the road,
selling out major venues, charting albums and appearing on bills with some of
rock’s most legendary names, from Iron Maiden to the Rolling Stones.
