January 12 : Bruce Kulick 'Hand Of King' digital download available
From: Bruce Kulick
"Hand Of The King" (featuring Nick Simmons on vocals) is available NOW at the following online digital retailers: iTunes, Amazon, Amie Street, Emusic, Lala, Napster, Rhapsody, Shockhound, Thinkindie, Walmart.com and Zune! Unfortunately, "Hand Of The King" is only available as a digital download in North America.

"Although 'Hand Of The King' marks Nick's debut as a recording artist, he was a natural behind the microphone," says Kulick. "His lyrics are based on his passion for the dark imagery of the graphic novel world. The combination of vivid lyrics and brooding guitar riffs, against Nick's powerful vocal performance, absolutely resulted in one of my favorite tracks on BK3."

You can pre-order the full "BK3" CD on Amazon too!
"BK3" will be released February 2nd on Twenty 4 Records /Rocket Science Ventures.
