INTENSE CONFIRMED AS SUPPORT FOR SABATON IN LONDON
The UK power metallers Intense have been confirmed as the opening act for the Sabaton show in London Purple Turtle on 5 November 2008. Main support comes from Grailknights.
Intense, currently signed to Napalm Records, have released their second album As Our Army Grows (produced by Karl Groom and Richard West from Threshold) last year. The release saw the band getting much critical acclaim from all over the globe with over 100 interviews requested.
Intense have shared the stage with bands such as Evergrey, Sonata Arctica, Skyclad, Leatherwolf, Finntroll, Orphaned Land, Children of Bodom and Epica amongst others. Well known for their full on live show, the band have taken time out from writing for their 3rd album to hit the stage once again.
The jump from Second Sight to As Our Army Grows is about as significant as Metallica going from Kill Em All to Ride the Lightning. The skill level and song-writing has improved massively, and Intense have found their own sound.

Powerful songs, gripping riffs and rhythms, immense vocals... one of the strongest examples of how a modern Power Metal band should sound. Tight, punchy, dynamic and exciting, INTENSE have certainly raised the bar of excellence and musicianship...
Metal Invader, Greece
...a very well achieved mix of US influenced Power Metal, with a bit of Maiden in the melodies and a lot of progressive structures...I highly recommend this one in the hope their army will indeed grow. They certainly deserve so with this fine album.
Rock Heavy Loud, Portugal
Releases:
Dark Season EP- Full Volume Records, Second Sight - Underground Symphony,

Not great but nothing to do with the promoters who were very nice and under lots of duress...
