ALL SHALL PERISH Guitarist Interviewed By METAL ASSAULT

July 20, 2010

On July 18, Aniruddh "Andrew" Bansal of Metal Assault conducted an interview with guitarist Ben Orum of Oakland, California extreme metallers ALL SHALL PERISH on the second night of the Summer Slaughter 2010 tour at the House of Blues in Hollywood, California. You can now listen to the chat below.

The first photos of the new ALL SHALL PERISH lineup, taken during the band's recent run of West Coast dates with DANZIG, can be found at this location.

ALL SHALL PERISH recently parted ways with original drummer Matt Kuykendall and replaced him with Adam Pierce. The group stated at the time, "It's always tough to part ways with a longtime member and friend, but it was absolutely necessary in order to maintain forward progress."

ALL SHALL PERISH's most recent lead guitarist, Jason Richardson, left the band and joined BORN OF OSIRIS. He has since been temporarily replaced by Francesco Artusato from Treviso, Italy.

ALL SHALL PERISH in January cancelled its participation in "The Black Procession" European tour alongside MACHINE HEAD, HATEBREED and BLEEDING THROUGH.

"Awaken The Dreamers", the latest CD from ALL SHALL PERISH, was released on vinyl for the first time on March 16 via Pure Noise. An extremely limited pressing, it is available in two eye-striking patterns; 300 copies are clear with red splatter and 600 are half black/half red, literally split in half between the two colors.

METALLICA's Kirk Hammett named "Awaken The Dreamers" as one of his 25 favorite albums of the past decade in an issue of Rolling Stone magazine.

"Awaken The Dreamers" sold just under 5,000 copies in the United States in its first week of release to enter The Billboard 200 chart at position No. 126. The follow-up to "The Price of Existence" was recorded once again at Castle Ultimate Studios in Oakland with producer Zack Ohren.
