MITHRAS: First Footage Of New Lineup Posted Online

August 4, 2009

U.K.'s psychedelic brutal death metal masters MITHRAS played their first show with new vocalist/bassist Sam Bean (THE BERZERKER, THE SENSELESS) on July 19, 2009 in Rushden. Video footage of the performance can be viewed below.

MITHRAS' concert at the Day Of Unrest on December 14, 2008 was filmed with two cameras and professionally recorded, then mixed and edited at Dreaming Studios by MITHRAS guitarist Leon Macey. Songs from the show will feature on the forthcoming MITHRAS release titled "Sands Of Time", which marks the 10-year milestone of the band's existence. "Sands Of Time" will be released concurrently in two parts, a CD showcasing unreleased MITHRAS material, all the band's released demos and some rarities all given the remastering treatment; and a DVD crammed with live footage from various shows, studio footage and rehearsals. A release date will be announced soon.

The December show was longtime frontman/bassist Rayner Coss's swansong performance with MITHRAS, as he departed the band after the concert and was then replaced in early 2009 by Sam Bean.

MITHRAS' third album, "Behind The Shadows Lie Madness", was released worldwide by Candlelight Records in April 2007.
