NEWS RELEASE

Montreal, QC – June 26, 2020

For fans of Motley Crue, Guns and Roses, Skid Row (old records), Breaking Benjamin

Canada’s SVEN GALI Premiere Music Video “Now” via Bravewords

New EP “3” Out Now via RFL Records

25 years in the making, Canada’s SVEN GALI released their highly anticipated EP entitled “3” earlier this month on June 12th via RFL Records. Known for their fusion of 80s screaming hard rock and 90s blazing metal along with extensive touring worldwide where they have shared the stage with legends such as April Wine, Foreigner, Pearl Jam, and Def Leppard, Sven Gali‘s new EP is their long-awaited follow up to 1995’s “In Wire” and 1992’s gold-selling and Juno Award-nominated self-titled debut album released on BMG Music Canada that featured hits “Under The Influence” and “Love Don’t Live Here Anymore”.
In support of the release, the band has teamed up with Bravewords for the premiere of their new music video “Now”.Drummer Dan Fila adds:

“‘Now’ showcases the band’s raw live energy and chemistry. The video is soaked in attitude and ferocity – the same that made Sven Gali a staple in the global hard rock scene 30 years ago.”

Watch the video HERE.

“3” features previously released singles “Kill The Lies” (2018) and “You Won’t Break Me” (2019) both produced by David Bendeth (Paramore, Breaking Benjamin, Bring Me The Horizon) along with new tracks “Now” and “Hurt” produced by Jon Howard (Threat Signal), and marks the return of one of Canada’s favourite bands.

Vocalist Dave Wanless comments:

“This is Dave from Sven Gali.  After 25 years of laying low, we are back in the game with our new EP “3”.  The disc showcases our musical influences and is a genuine representation of who we are as a band and as people now.  Sven Gali is and always has been a rock band – in your face, full throttle, attitude, and passion.  Making this record without the pressures of a major label looking over our shoulders was liberating – we did what we wanted for ourselves.  We hope that people dig in, but at the end of the day, we did this record because we love making music together, and we did it exactly how we wanted to.”  

Returning to begin the next chapter of SVEN GALI, the band is here to stay and take on the 00s, which has been very evident with sold-out Canadian shows during 2018 and 2019, with a promise once the world overcomes the COVID 19 pandemic to continue to play solo and festival dates in North America, Europe and beyond.

“3” is available on digital platforms from RFL Records HERE and CD HERE.
Track Listing:
1. Kill The Lies (3:38)
2. You Won’t Break Me (3:40)
3. Now (4:59)
4. Hurt (3:10)
EP Length: 15:28

“3 is full of heavy, chugging riffs and howled choruses, mixing the melodies of ’80s hard rock with the aggression of ’90s metal.” – Exclaim!

“The time is now for Sven Gali to rock our world once again, with their short and sweet brand new EP being a solid statement that although the band might have been gone for a while, they still have a lot of fuel to burn in the name of Rock N’ Roll.” – The Headbanging Moose

“It’s a banger and a return befitting of their iconic status in the metal.” – Games, Brrraaains & A Head-Banging Life

“Of course, 3 leaves you wanting more. Maybe it’s a teaser for more stuff to come from Sven Gali? ” – Boston Rock Radio

“I was super excited to be given the opportunity to review 3. I remember picking up their debut album when it was first released and being blown away then. In 2020, I have been reminded of that overwhelming feeling. The songs are extremely well written and do not sound dated at all. When June 12th rolls around, grab yourself a copy of this killer EP.” – I’m Music Magazine

SVEN GALI built a name fast with their live shows; drawing growing crowds on the Canadian and US circuit while building their songwriting chops and a wild reputation. David Bendeth signed the band to BMG Music Canada in 1991 and produced the self-titled debut, released in 1992.

The masterful debut album includes the hit, which was the MuchMusic Best Metal Video award of 1993, “Under The Influence” and the emotional sweet balladry of “Love Don’t Live Here Anymore”, a song that came no. 6 CanCon song of 1993. Following their profound release, the band was nominated for Hard Rock Album of the Year and Most Promising Band by Canada’s most prestigious music awards, the Junos. SVEN GALI also went gold in Canada that year.

Following extensive touring worldwide, being a major event on stages with legends (April Wine / Foreigner / Pearl Jam / Def Leppard), SVEN GALI didn’t stop there, and continued their journey with the release of their sophomore, “In Wire”, in 1995.

Just recently, after a long time in the shadows, Twenty-five years after their debut album went Gold in Canada, in 2018 SVEN GALI came back rockin’, kicking out the jams with the modernized edged rock covered in metal with an early version of “Kill The Lies” and “You Won’t Break Me” in 2019.

It appears that SVEN GALI are here to take on the 00s, and it has been evident with sold out Canadian shows in 2018 and 2019 and a promise to continue to play solo and festival dates in North America and Europe through 2020 and beyond.

Formed in 1987 in Niagara Falls, Sven Gali brought the 80’s and 90’s hard rock/metal wave to Canada. They delivered their high-energy live show from coast to coast, and across the US and Europe for the next 9 years.

Twenty-five years after their debut album went Gold in Canada, in 2018 they came back with a monster new song called “Kill The Lies” recorded with legendary producer David Bendeth (Paramore, Breaking Benjamin, Bring Me The Horizon) that reached nr 3 on Top Rock Streams in Canada on the CBC.  

In 2019 they released a follow-up track, “You Won’t Break Me” also produced by David Bendeth. Two more songs are being recorded before the end of 2019 for an EP release and in 2020 the band plans to put out 2 full albums of previously unreleased material from 1988 to 1996.  

The band has sold out Canadian shows in 2018 and 2019 and will continue to play solo and festival dates in North America and Europe through 2020 and beyond.

The lineup includes all 3 remaining original members: Dave Wanless (vocals), Andy Frank (guitar), Shawn Minden (bass) and new members Sean Williamson (guitar) and Dan Fila (drums) from Canadian metal powerhouse and BMG label mates Varga.

Sven Gali built a name fast with their live shows; drawing growing crowds on the Canadian and US circuit while building their songwriting chops and a wild reputation. David Bendeth signed the band to BMG Music Canada in 1991 and produced the self-titled debut, released in 1992.

The album included singles and videos for “Under The Influence”, “Tie Dyed Skies”, “In My Garden”, and the ballad, “Love Don’t Live Here Anymore” (#6 CanCon song of 1993). It included a cover of Teenage Head’s “Disgusteen” featuring guest vocals by Frankie Venom. The video for “Under the Influence” won the MuchMusic Best Metal Video award in 1993. The band was nominated for Hard Rock Album of the Year and Most Promising Band at the Junos. Sven Gali went gold in Canada that year.

Sven Gali toured extensively throughout Canada and the USA, Germany, Belgium, Ireland, and the UK, headlining and on the bill with acts including April Wine, Foreigner, Candlebox, Pearl Jam and Def Leppard. They were a staple on MTV’s HeadBanger’s Ball in the UK and Europe.

Their follow up album, Inwire (1995), recorded at London Bridge Studios in Seattle, was produced by Kelly Grey (Candlebox, Brother Kane, Dokken) and featured guest musicians Christopher Thorn of Blind Melon, and Candlebox’s Kevin Martin and Scott Mercado.

Look out for Sven Gali on the road in the next few years.
