80's Metal/Rock/Hardcore - ESSEX, United Kingdom

Hailing from the South East, TMA consists of four guys with an incessant passion for wailing 80's metal. Throwbacks? Think again fast.

TMA combine the OTT exuberance and showmanship of classic 80's metal with a gritty backbone of the metal and hard rock of today.Think; dual guitar solos hotter than a night with Angelina Jolie, Beatdowns that could take your head clean off and bridges so epic and tough, you'd form a six pack and pecks with one dangerously infectious listen.

This combined with epic, uplifting choruses and emotive string sections make for an exciting mix that is making waves in the british metal scene as well as abroad.

In 2009 the band signed their first overseas record deal with major label JVC Victor Entertainment in Japan. The Debut Record 'You Cant Hurt Steel' has shifted thousands of copies and has made TMA one of the most exciting bands in the Japanese Metal Scene.

Back home TMA are a growing force from constant touring in support of 'You Cant Hurt Steel' The Debut which dropped in July 2009. The live show is a barrage of lasers,lights and backdrops owing much to the theatrics of bands like Iron Maiden.

Dont miss The Morning After, sure to be kicking it in your town soon on tour throughout 2010 !
TMA's Debut Album 'You Can Hurt Steel' is available from all good record stores now !
