RESURRECTION Signs With MASSACRE RECORDS, Announces New Drummer

November 20, 2007

Tampa death metallers and former Nuclear Blast recording artists RESURRECTION, who had moderate success with their debut album "Embalmed Existence" (1993),have issued the following update:

"It is with great pleasure that we announce the addition of new permanent drummer Gus Rios to the line-up of RESURRECTION. After auditioning numerous players over the last couple of months, we are pleased to have the opportunity to play with Gus as a permanent full-time member of the band. Gus's drumming and writing credits include MALEVOLENT CREATION, UPON INFLICTION and KULT OV AZAZEL as well as co-writing and producing MALEVOLENT CREATION's newest release, 'Doomsday X'. Gus is a natural fit for RESURRECTION in terms of playing style and is dedicated to creating our next full-length and supporting the album on tour. This relationship we all hope will be a long-term situation.

"RESURRECTION will begin pre-production in January and will enter the studio in February to record their as-yet-untitled full-length album scheduled for an end of April 2008 worldwide release via Massacre Records in Europe and a through a not-yet-named label for the rest of the world. 2008 plans also include a European and North American tour and numerous festival appearances worldwide.

"Other news: we are happy to announce that RESURRECTION has finalized a new relationship with Germany's Massacre Records. The contract with Massacre is for the European territories only and we are close to finalizing a deal for the remainder of the world via another U.S.-based label. Current plans include recording the new as-yet-untitled full-length in February which is due in stores worldwide at the end of April. We will announce our other relationship (for the rest of the world) in a few weeks, as we draw closer to finalizing the agreement."
