(NEW YORK, NY, November 18, 2016) – Rock luminaries SIXX:A.M. release their 5^th studio album Vol. 2 Prayers for the Blessed TODAY via Eleven Seven Music. Written and recorded at the same time as Vol. 1 Prayers For The Damned, which was released earlier this year, Volume 2 is an evolution from the first chapter that continues to push the band’s sound forward. The album is now available for purchase and streaming via Apple, Spotify, Amazon and Google.

Vol. 2 Prayers for the Blessed includes outsider anthem and lead single “We Will Not Go Quietly,” the classic 70’s ballad “Without You,” the operatic show stopper "Maybe It's Time," and the groove-driven, radio-ready rocker "That's Gonna Leave A Scar." The official video for “We Will Not Go Quietly” was directed by iconic director Wayne Isham (Michael Jackson, Muse, Britney Spears) and filmed during their recent show in Edmonton, Alberta. It offers viewers a “show-day-in-the-life-of” the band, in addition to their powerful on-stage energy. Watch it HERE.  “We Will Not Go Quietly” is also featured as the opening theme song for season 2 of A&E’s gritty drama series Gangland Undercover, premiering Thursday, December 8 at 10PM ET/PT (check your local listings).

“’Vol. 2 Prayers For The Blessed’ is without a doubt the most visceral and passionate record that SIXX:A.M. has ever recorded. We opened the floodgates on this one. Musically and lyrically we went deeper than we ever have before.” --James Michael

Touring three continents this year, SIXX:A.M—comprised of Nikki Sixx, Dj Ashba, and James Michael--have been sharing their music with a global audience and performing the songs from Vol. 2 Prayers For The Blessed. SIXX:A.M. are currently on their US arena tour with Five Finger Death Punch, Shinedown and As Lions, with remaining dates in Boston, Newark, and Philadelphia—tour routing below.

ABOUT SIXX:A.M.: Formed in 2007 on the streets of Los Angeles, SIXX:A.M.’s mission has remained steadfast: to provide iconic, hard rock to the masses that boasts unrivaled musicianship and a loyal legion of devoted fans beyond compare. Comprised of vocalist James Michael, guitarist Dj Ashba, and bassist Nikki Sixx, SIXX:A.M. is truly a culmination of each artist’s talents, taking from each of their names (Sixx, Ashba, and Michael). In addition to providing unparalleled vocals, Michael is also a highly acclaimed producer, having worked with Kelly Clarkson, Halestorm, and Papa Roach, and boasts the producing and mixing credits for all of the SIXX:A.M. albums released.

To date, the band has released 4 studio albums; The Heroin Diaries Soundtrack (2007), This Is Gonna Hurt (2011), and Modern Vintage (2014), and Prayers For The Damned (2016) and 3 EP’s; X-Mas In Hell (2008), Live Is Beautiful (2008), and 7 (2011). The band has come a long way since their live debut in 2007 at Crash Mansion, performing 5 songs off of The Heroin Diaries Soundtrack, an audible, introspective recall of Sixx’s autobiography, The Heroin Diaries: A Year in the Life of a Shattered Rock Star. A hero for the cause, Nikki spoke on the epidemic in Washington during National Recovery Day, creating an even deeper, more personable bond with the artists. In combination with it’s success and topical importance, The Heroin Diaries is currently being made into a Broadway play, further proving its topic's impact and importance to society.  With so much to say and a passion for performing, Sixx penned his next book, This Is Gonna Hurt, that was soon accompanied by an album of the same name. Both books received notoriety as New York Times bestsellers. This began the band’s longstanding relationship with their fans that has been built off of trust, relatabiity, and honesty, in combination with their heavy-hitting rock anthems. Since, the trio have performed alongside rock mainstays such as Mötley Crüe, and headlined a nearly sold out 2015 US tour with special guest Apocolyptica. SIXX:A.M. have  been facing one of the busiest years of their career confident and undaunted, packing 2016 with the release of a double album in two installments, touring the globe, co-headlining  nearly all of the major US rock festivals including Welcome To Rockville, Carolina Rebellion, Rocklahoma as well as playing the biggest European summer festivals such as Download Festival, Rock am Ring, Sweden Roc Gods of Metal and many more. Having sold over 1 million albums globally, SIXX:A.M. have set the bar for rock excellence and this year will solidify their spot as genre royalty.
