Repost from MetalMartyr.com.

I’m currently running a contest over on my metal Blog Metal Martyr. You can win the complete Discography from “The Answer and 3 winner will win their newest release Everyday Demons. Here are the details.

The Answer is a cool rock band out of Ireland that recently was on tour opening for the legendary AC/DC. If you’re not familiar with their music it’s kind of like The Black Crowes, AC/DC and Led Zeppelin all rolled in to one. Needless to say they have a great classic rock groove to them.

Here is a chance for one lucky winner to win their complete Discography to include their latest release, Everyday Demons and the unreleased Live At Planet Rock Xmas Party Featuring Paul Rodgers. 3 runner ups will receive the new album Everyday Demons.

How do you win? Since the bands name is “The Answer“, this is going to be a Jeopardy style contest where I will provide an “Answer” and you have to comment in the Jeopardy game show style of a question using the comment section. For example, I might say something simple like “Emo music” as the answer, and you would have to come up with something creative in the form of a question like “What is the musical genre God created to punish metal fans?“. Got it?

Contest is limited to U.S. Residents. I’ll pick the winners on April 30th.

So here is The Answer: “Courtney Love’s Panties.”  Make it interesting, creative and most of all, funny. Remember, form of a question!

To enter you’ll have to go to MetalMartyr.com and enter by leaving your answer, or rather your “Question” in the comment section there.

There’s a good reason why The Answer was chosen to open for hard rock veterans, AC/DC. Why? Because they kick ass. They may not have a new or even a modern sound to them but they know how to rock.

The first time I heard the answer was on their Never Too Late EP. When I slipped it in and pressed play, my initial reaction was; “Great, another AC/DC clone band.”, but they were far from it. I had only heard a few seconds before making that statement to myself, but as I continued to listen it just had a certain vibe to it that screamed classic rock with a modern twist and I was hooked.

The Irish rock band, The Answer had a chance to play on Late Night with David Lettermen last Friday. If you missed it you can see it below as they perform the single Never Too Late from their upcoming Never Too Late Ep. The Answer are currently on a North American tour in support of AC/DC.

I’ve yet to get to my review of The Answer’s upcoming EP/DVD “Never Too Late“, but I can tell you that it’s pretty damn cool, especially the DVD. Here is a little press from The End Records:

THE ANSWER will play a short set and sign copies of Never Too Late for fans during the November 11 in-store. Everyone who attends their Virgin Megastore (52 East 14th Street, NYC, NY, 10003) performance that evening will be entered into a prize drawing to win a pair of tickets to see THE ANSWER perform as support act for AC/DC at one of their Madison Square Garden concerts on November 12 and 13. The AC/DC tour represents THE ANSWER’s debut tour of America. Just prior to the tour’s two-night stand at Chicago’s Allstate Arena last week, the Daily Herald noted about THE ANSWER that, “The quartet has turned a lot of heads around the globe, as leathery Brits Jimmy Page, Joe Elliott and David Coverdale have all praised their authentic retro stomp.”

In Support of their November 11th Never Too Late EP and forthcoming February 16th 2009 release of their Everyday Demons LP, The Answer is heading out on tour as support act for AC/DC. I’ll be posting a review of Never Too Late in the coming week or so. Here’s a little more info on the Ireland band The Answer, who’s singer sounds to me like a cross between Robert Plant and Chris Cornell.

THE ANSWER, a rising rock band from Northern Ireland that made the “Hot List” in the latest issue of Rolling Stone, is the opening act for AC/DC’s Black Ice World Tour. The North American leg of the global itinerary launches today at the Wachovia Center in Wilkes-Barre, PA and wraps January 31 at Nashville, TN’s Sommet Center. Highlights on the road also include shows at NYC’s Madison Square Garden on November 12-13 and The Forum in Los Angeles on December 6 and 8. Rolling Stone noted, “No effing wonder AC/DC tapped these U.K. long-hairs to open on their U.S. tour: The singer howls like Paul Rodgers, the guitarist shreds like Jimmy Page and the lyrics are as awesomely stupid as ballin’ without a rubber.”
