\r\nSome statements about the ROCK THE NATION AWARD and its huge success last year:
\r\nStefan Hattinger (Rock The Nation/NoiseArt Records owner):
\r\n“The Rock The Nation Award 2009 was a huge success in my opinion. We´ve found two amazing and outstanding bands which we probably would have never known of otherwise. And both STEELWING and SUICIDAL ANGELS have accomplished a lot ever since. They were touring constantly and are about to release highly acclaimed new albums! That´s why we decided to do the second round of the RTN Award, to bring more of those unknown yet amazing bands to the surface! Let the games begin!”
\r\n
\r\nSuicidal Angels:
\r\n"A year passed since we won the RTN award.Through this year,we had the chance to participate in some great tours with bands like Kataklysm and Overkill, great slots in festivals like Wacken, Summer Breeze, Metalcamp, Metalfest, Party:san and many many more. And all these hadnt stopped. Recently we were confirmed to be part of the Thrashfest tour with Kreator, Exodus and Death Angel, our new album "Dead Again" is gonna be out on the November 19th and there are still more to come. Horns up for the RTN award!“
\r\n
\r\nSteelwing:
\r\n"One year has passed since we were announced as winners of the Rock The Nation Award 2009, and we could not have hoped for a better boost in our career! We’ve released an album through the perfect metal label there is for us, we’re going on tour all over Europe with Blind Guardian and Sabaton, playing in front of thousands of metalheads… it goes without saying that we’ve had an amazing year so far! All thanks to the organizers of the RTN Award, and the enormous support we received from the fans who voted for us!"
