Cyanide from Las Vegas
Brand new album 21 Gun Salute, streaming everywhere October 17th, 2025!
Las Vegas’ own Cyanide is here to bring back the glory days of heavy metal. To party like it’s 1989. For fans of Motley Crue, Van Halen, Metallica, Def Leppard, Kiss, Ratt, Judas Priest and Guns ‘N Roses among other legendary heavyweights. Their 11 song debut album Lethal Dose is full of high octane, sex, drugs and rock ‘n roll fueled tracks.
From the uptempo opener Bitches to Blame to sleazy album closer Whole ‘Lotta Trouble (dedicated to the legendary Sherri’s Ranch in Pahrump, Nevada), this album brings back the spirit and attitude of classics like Too Fast for Love, High ‘N Dry, Out of the Cellar and Appetite for Destruction.
Tracks like Drinkin’, Pump it to Me (featuring John Zito of Count’s 77 on slide guitar), Lookin’ for a Good Time, first single What Comes Around Goes Around and the classic power ballad It’s a Long Road prove this band has what it takes to take 80’s hard rock into the next generation.
Cyanide has wowed audiences with its original songs as well as spot on covers like Queen of the Reich, Ten Seconds to Love, and even obscure classics like Kix’s Girl Money, while opening for such legends as Skid Row, Krokus, Stephen Pearcy of Ratt, Steel Panther, Doro Pesch, Grim Reaper, Trixter, Rough Cutt, Enuff Z’Nuff, Bulletboys, Black ‘N Blue, Tuff, Femme Fatale, Cheap Thrill and more.
Now in 2025 Cyanide has emerged with a new album called 21 Gun Salute. They recently signed with Kivel Records and the album will debut worldwide on all streaming sites October 17, 2025. You can order the CD now at https://www.kivelrecords.com/store/product/cyanide-21-gun-salute/
Cyanide mastermind Rob Hussey and acclaimed producer Ty Sims have created a timeless hard rock album that has been sorely missing in this world of computerized auto tune drivel.
With a powerful new metal edge that keeps their core 80’s hard rock sound while also bringing a fresh new heavier approach, the new Cyanide album is sure to please old and new fans alike. Tracks like Social Media Disease and As the World Burns show a much heavier, deeper, more mature side of the band. The old school glam and sleaze of tracks like Slip N Slide and Get up and Dance will have you standing on your seat with your fists in the air. The ballads Never Let Me Go and cover of the Climax Blues band classic I Love You are truly beautiful pieces of music, with soaring guitars and gorgeous melodies.
The first single, 21 Gun Salute, is a deep moving tribute to the troops of the United States of America. A song about unity in a time of division, this song is poised to put Cyanide in the major leagues.
