Thor and Savage Grace have become the latest bands confirmed for the Keep It True 13 Festival which will take place in Germany during April 2010.

Commenting on the new bands the festivals promoters said "The first new addition is Canadian legend THOR. It is hard to find a more “cult” character in the metal scene than Jon-Mikl Thor. The Canadian Rockwarrior is part of the scene since the mid seventies and was famous for his extraordinary liveshows in the eighties. I think everybody remembers the blowing of the warm water bottle and the crushing of the steel bar…legendary!! Additionally to that, THOR released a highly important album called “Only The Strong”, which featured classic tracks like “Thunder On The Tundra” or “Let The Blood Run Red” and was his breakthrough. Unfortunately the band never made it to Germany through all these years and we are extremely proud we could work it out for KEEP IT TRUE, cause THOR fits like a glove to KIT. We cannot wait for THOR swinging the hammer on KEEP IT TRUE 13.

"The second addition is Californian Speed Metal legend SAVAGE GRACE with mastermind Chris Logue. For us it is a dream come true, cause we tried to get the band since the very first KIT and now it becomes reality. With “Master Of Disguise” and “After The Fall From Grace” the band released two milestones of Speed Metal and is considered as one of the best bands ever of that genre. Since they were one of the most often asked for bands, we hope we also can fulfil the dream of many KIT Fans with this new addition."

The full lineup now shapes up as follows:

ADX (FRA)
CRYSTAL VIPER (POL)
DEMON (UK)(Special 30th Anniversary Show)
