SOIL: Footage From SAVAGEFEST Available

October 11, 2010

Fan-filmed video footage of SOIL's performance at this year's SavageFest, which was held October 8-9, 2010 in Green Bay, Wisconsin, can be viewed below.

SOIL's current lineup includes guitarist Adam Zadel and bassist Tim King alongside the band's latest additions, Jordan Lee (vocals; ex-SILVERGUN) and Mike Tignino (drums; CHAINWAX).

As previously reported, SOIL singer/guitarist A.J. Cavalier is on an "indefinite hiatus" from the band but has not officially quit the group. SOIL drummer Tom Schofield revealed in July that he is "looking for new musical opportunities while A.J. is on hiatus" and is not taking part in any of the band's current dates.

Regarding their decision to perform the shows with fill-in members, Zadel and King stated, "Both Jordan and Mike are awesome musicians and have been longtime SOIL followers and to us it is an honor to have them join us for the already confirmed shows.

"We will take full advantage of this opportunity to perform some classic songs we haven't played in years and can promise you we will deliver a powerful and energetic show that will meet and surpass the standards we have always set for our live shows.

"You can either take a bad situation and make it worse, or you can rise above and make it a fun event that everyone can remember and walk away from having a good time. We plan on doing just that."

Cavalier, who previously fronted the California-based band DIESEL MACHINE (also featuring ex-DAMAGEPLAN singer Patrick Lachman on guitar),joined SOIL in late 2004 as the replacement for Ryan McCombs (now in DROWNING POOL).

SOIL's latest album, "Picture Perfect", sold 1,500 copies in the United States in its first week of release to debut at position No. 56 on the Hard Music chart. The CD was released in the U.S. on October 20, 2009 via Bieler Bros. Records and three days later in Europe through AFM Records/Soulfood.
