Recorded last year „Going To Hell? Permission Granted” includes 12 songs of highly addictive alternative groove metal and cover version of Slayer’s “Bloodline”. The Sixpounder call themselves “combination of rock’n’roll ghost with metal specter” – this means highly energetic, modern guitar sound full of Pantera and Lamb Of God dynamics, yet enriched with melodies bringing to mind In Flames.The album was produced by Jacek Milaszewski (Acid Drinkers, Hunter) in Chimp Studio.

The Sixpounder are already an experienced live band in their home country. And after winning the Wacken Metal Battle, the band played at last Wacken Open Air 2010 festival. Here you can check the festival report from this memorable visit: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ttC81UNIMuk.  Here you can also watch live video for “Last True Cowboy Manifesto” and brand new ballad “A Heart Beat”.
