CONQUEST OF STEEL Drummer Recovering From Surgery

December 17, 2009

Chris "The Destroyer" Mills, drummer with U.K. heavy metal warriors CONQUEST OF STEEL, is currently in hospital recovering from surgery to remove an infected appendix. The band states, "The surgery was successful but he recently had to return to hospital with a severe infection in the wound. The Destroyer is expected out of hospital in a weeks time and will then begin a period of recuperation before he is able to return to take his position back behind his drum kit."

In the event that Mills is not fit to resume his drum duties for CONQUEST OF STEEL's January shows, John Savage (HYPNOSIS) will take his place behind the kit for those dates.

"The Prophecy", the new video from CONQUEST OF STEEL, can be viewed below. The song comes off the band's third album, "Storm Sword (Rise of the Dread Queen)", which was released in March.

"Storm Sword (Rise of the Dread Queen)" is a concept effort which charts the rise and fall of an empire. Recording took place once again at Priory and Red Flag Studios.
