BLACK TIDE To Release 'Bite The Bullet' EP Next Week
November 4, 2013Miami-based hard rockers BLACK TIDE will release a new EP, "Bite The Bullet", on November 12. The CD was recorded at Live House studios in the band's hometown with producer/engineer Mariano Aponte (formerly of Silvia Massy's RadioStar Studios). The group states: "We really went back to our roots on this one."
Only two members remain from the lineup that recorded BLACK TIDE's 2011 album "Post Mortem": Gabriel Garcia (vocals, lead guitar) and Austin Diaz (rhythm guitar). They are being joined in the studio by drummer Tim D'Onofrio.
Comments Garcia: "Just so everyone knows…. Austin and I did reach out to Steven [Spence, drums] and Zakk [Sandler, bass] about working on this EP with us. They've moved on to new things. But we are still here and thinking about all of our amazing fans."
