MORGOTH Taps Ex-DESTRUCTION Drummer For Upcoming Shows
January 10, 2011Resurrected German death metallers MORGOTH have issued the following update:
"We are happy to announce Marc Reign [ex-DESTRUCTION] as the one who will be handling the drum duties during our shows for the 20th anniversary of the release of the 'Cursed' album.
"During the rehearsals, we felt very quickly that Marc would fit perfectly to us as his punch and timing are incredible! Welcome aboard!"
Added Marc Reign: "In 1990 when I was a teenage kid into death metal, I went to a MORGOTH show (with DEMOLITION HAMMER and OBITUARY) at Berlin's Ecstasy and was amazed by the fact that the German death metal formation MORGOTH could compete with the American-scene bands. When, 20 years later, Mille of KREATOR introduced me to those guys, it was totally clear to me what I wanted to do: going back to my death metal roots and jam the hell out!
"The rehearsals turned out awesome, so we've decided to work together! The power was right there… and a dream came true!"
