Rockworld.TV launches… on the TV!

• 20th Dec 2006

Rockworld.TV, which launches officially today on Sky Channel 368, will see the established format of Redemption TV – the live performances and backstage interviews that have made the station so popular – expanded by a host of innovative new programmes and content, such as all new flagship news and reviews show Rockjaw (featuring the latest news on music, games, films and tours), video magazine Rocksound.TV (TV's answer to an Access All Areas pass), and cult Japanese Anime shows Gilgamesh and Cromartie High School in exclusive serialised form, thanks to a partnership with ADV Vision, the number one distributor for Anime.

Rockworld.TV will also boast a hefty online presence, its website set to feature live streaming of its programming alongside a host of
exciting interactive features.

“When we started out as Redemption TV we wanted to make music
television fresh, exciting and real again,” says Peter Hadfield, joint
CEO of Rockworld.TV. “We achieved these goals quicker than we could
have imagined which gave us new aspirations and ambitions for the
project. Now that we have a whole channel at our disposal, the sky is
the limit for 2007 and beyond, and we aim to make Rockworld.TV the
number one channel destination for all fans of real music; from indie
rock to extreme metal.”

The first week's scheduling for Rockworld.TV will feature Enter Shikari on the road, interviews with Trivium, Cradle of Filth, and Killswitch Engage. Exclusive live footage of The Young Knives at The Astoria, a Bullet For My Valentine 'Metal Superstars' special, and a whole lot more.
