BATTLECROSS will be touring in support of their latest album, Rise To Power, which landed on the Billboard charts at #103, marking the band's second Billboard chart entry (2013's War Of Will entered the charts at #130). Metal Injection wrote, "Where Rise To Power makes its biggest statement is in not just the voluminous collection of intellectually engaging, yet fist pumping, riffs - check out The Big Four-ish shuffle of 'Scars,' the spidery, single note up-tempo flash of 'Absence' and the dynamic blips in 'Spoiled' - but how the arrangements create a sense of forward motion that keep the above-mentioned songs cogently flowing and seeming shorter than their actual running time." In a 4/5 rating New Noise concurred, "With a fantastic replay value and a high riff per second ratio, Rise To Power is sure to win over a lot of new fans for the band," while Metal Wani, in a 9.5/10 score, lauded an album, "where every member played their best and shone like diamond in the rough, and this diamond will only be more and more polished day by day."
