Reunited SOLSTICE Enters Studio, Announces Lineup Change
September 24, 2008The reunited South Florida death/thrash metal band SOLSTICE has issued the following update:
"We're scheduled to start tracking for a new release on September 18th. We have 11 songs including a cover from our old buddies CYNIC, circa 1988. We also have a lineup change; Alex Marquez [drums] is no longer with us. Joining us for this album is drummer Brian Harris. Brian is a true asskicker and a consummate pro and we know he will bring an amazing dimension to our music."
SOLSTICE was formed in 1990 by guitarist Dennis Munoz and drummer Alex Marquez with vocalist/guitarist Rob Barrett (CANNIBAL CORPSE, ex-MALEVOLENT CREATION, HATEPLOW) and bassist Dave Smith. In 1991 they recorded a demo produced by legendary producer Jim Morris. In 1992, their debut album "The Sentencing" was recorded but due to internal problems the band broke up the following year. Barrett and Marquez would go on to join MALEVOLENT CREATION. In 1994 Munoz and Marquez played with a hardcore band called ANGER and in 1995 SOLSTICE was reformed with a new lineup. A second album titled "Pray" was released but they soon disbanded once again.
Current SOLSTICE lineup:
Christian Rudes: Guitars, vocals
Dennis Munoz: Guitars
Brian Harris: Drums
Garrett Scott: Bass
