MILLENNIUM (Heavy Metal – UK) – Release official lyric video for the song “There is a Devil” – Taken from the album “The Sign of Evil” which is out now via No Remorse Records #Millennium
Short Bio: Formed in 1982 by Mark Duffy and Pete McArdle, Millennium were featured on Guardian Records 1993 compilation album Pure Overkill alongside contemporaries Spartan Warrior, Tokyo Rose, Risk and Incubus and. The band went on to record their debut album ‘Millennium’ in 1984. The “Blue” album on vinyl is still sought after by fans. The band split in 1988. Mark Duffy went on to front thrash metal act Toranaga (link below) Millennium reformed in 2015 with Will Philpot on guitar. The idea of resurrecting Mark’s NWOBHM band Millennium seemed an obvious choice as Mark had always felt that this chapter of Metal History was not yet over. Original members Steve Mennell and guitarist Dave Hardy were keen to revive the band. Gigs followed with a great response to the live appearances at Brofest, Live Evil, Mearfest, Headbangers open air festival Germany, Up the Hammers festival Greece. In February 2017, the band as it was, traveled to Coach House Studios in France to record the album, ‘AWAKENING’, a combination of NWOBHM riffage, Heavy Metal ideals and a lyrical call to arms. The band signed to Pure Steel Records in 2017, and with new members, recorded a new album, 2019s ‘A NEW WORLD’ which was received with critical acclaim and once again was a mixture of new influences and the ever present NWOBHM style. Their new album “The Sign of Evil” is released in May 2023 on No Remorse Records.

MILLENNIUM’s same-titled album, originally released in 1984, is definitely one of the best British Heavy Metal records of the ’80s. After that album, MILLENNIUM recorded many demo tapes, enough to create another album, but the band split in late ’80s. The “Millennium” album, originally released on vinyl only in 1984, was reissued on CD format by No Remorse Records in 2014 including 8 bonus tracks, and during that period the band was reunited. In 2016 No Remorse Records also released “Caught in a Warzone” on CD and vinyl, including the rest of the unreleased ’80s recordings of MILLENNIUM. After that, MILLENNIUM kept going and released two more studio albums, “Awakening” (2017) and “A New World” (2019). Having completed the album “The Sign of Evil” that sounds powerful and their best since the debut, MILLENNIUM joined No Remorse Records again.
