Lazarus A.D. thrash with Japanese fans at Loud Park
 

Wisconsin's Lazarus A.D. recently returned from their first ever trip overseas to Japan's Loud Park festival in Tokyo. Needless to say, the band had an amazing experience. They were the third band to play on the Big Rock stage on October 18th. The stage was headlined by Slayer and also featured Children Of Bodom, Hatebreed and Papa Roach among others. Lazarus A.D. sampled some foreign cuisine, was surprised by eager fans waiting at their hotel room door to sign autographs and take photos, and played to over 10,000 people. Multiple circle pits tore through the crowd as Jeff Paulick, Dan Gapen, Alex Lackner and Ryan Shutler played their music overseas for the first time.

Lead guitarist Dan Gapen checks in; “Loud Park was a blast! It was great sharing the stage with all those amazing bands. Not to mention having the chance to play in front of all the great people of Japan was a dream come true! We can't wait to come back to Japan and get another chance to blow the roof off the mother*#$^er once again…”

Keep an eye on Lazarus A.D.'s myspace page for more Loudpark updates from the band. Photos and possibly even some behind the scenes digital camera video footage is yet to be posted.

Just after the Thanksgiving holiday, Lazarus A.D. will be saddling up in their van and trailer to join forces with Vader! Those dates are below.
