Following a European tour opening for hard-rock heavyweights Five Finger Death Punch, the old-school rock machine that is Pop Evil have announced further details on their debut album ‘Onyx’.
Released on 19th May, through Eleven Seven Music, (home to Five Finger Death Punch, Motley Crüe, HELLYEAH, Papa Roach and Escape The Fate) following a deal between the label and Entertainment One Music, the European extended version of the album will include 3 additional tracks while the deluxe version features an extra 5.
Produced by Johnny K (Disturbed, 3 Doors Down, Megadeth), Onyx is a swaggering, fistpumping, ballbusting ride through American rock. The grandiose melody of the ‘70s, the danger of the ‘80s, the emotion of the ‘90s and the loudest of modern riffs all have a home in Pop Evil, who fashion a fresh sound that looks to the future through the prism of rock’s past.
Onyx is now available to Pre-order here, with a free download of ‘Trenches’ for everyone that pre-orders!

Pop Evil’s 2nd single ‘Deal With The Devil’ out now precedes the album. When asked about the ideas and influences behind the track, drummer Chachi Riot said, ‘Life can be wonderful, but life can also be extremely merciless. How do we deal with these hard times? Who do we have to deal with? Our decisions have consequences.’
The video was made in Sweden, with up and coming director Johan Carlen. Watch it here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TYFl1yBYTZA
