EVILE To Tour Canada With 3 INCHES OF BLOOD

September 22, 2008

UK thrashers EVILE will embark on their first-ever trip to the western hemisphere as they tour Canada this October with fist-pumping metal warriors 3 INCHES OF BLOOD.

This tour is a big moment in the history of EVILE as it marks the first time the band will play shows in the Great White North and the first time the band has ever toured outside of their half of the world. EVILE is extremely excited to see all of its crazy Canadian fans for the first time and is just as excited to play with longtime favorites of theirs, 3 INCHES OF BLOOD!

EVILE guitarist Ol Drake gave a few words on how he and his band first discovered the music of tourmates-to-be 3 INCHES OF BLOOD: "I remember hearing 3 INCHES OF BLOOD when we started EVILE back in 03/04 (in the rehearsal room whilst writing) and was surprised to hear someone doing that style of metal at that time. It was a relief to hear, even though I was heavilly into just death and thrash metal only then."

From local UK act to international thrash sensations, EVILE have a lot to be proud of and can't wait to show Canada what they're all about this October with 3 INCHES OF BLOOD. "I can't wait to drown in 3 INCHES OF BLOOD!" says Drake, who jests "...Too cheesy? Fuck you!"

EVILE was interviewed by "Angel Of Metal" at the Bloodstock Open Air 2008 festival, which was held August 15-17 at Catton Hall in Derbyshire, England. Watch the nine-minute chat below.

EVILE recently completed filming its first-ever music video. The "Thrasher" clip was shot on August 28 in South London with producer Dan Fernbach (BULLET FOR MY VALENTINE, KIDS IN GLASS HOUSES) of Static Films.

Fitting in perfectly with the name of the song, the video for "Thrasher" shows the band doing what they do best — putting on a display of pure, raw thrash!
