TRIGGER THE BLOODSHED Replaces WARPATH On EVILE Tour

April 14, 2009

Guitarist Ol Drake of U.K. thrashers EVILE has issued the following update:

"On Sunday, April 12, WARPATH let us know they have to pull out of our tour (which starts Wednesday, April 15) due to their lead guitarist being 'indirectly involved in a motorcycle accident' on April 8. We wish them all the best and hope he has a speedy recovery.

"We only had 2-3 days to find a replacement band.

"It's such short notice for any band to be able to accomodate themselves to a tour which starts in a few days, which already has arrangements and agreements made, but I want to personally thank our friends TRIGGER THE BLOODSHED for stepping up and being willing to take part in the tour in place of WARPATH. I'd like everyone to show TRIGGER THE BLOODSHED the same respect and consideration they've shown us in this situation by giving them a warm welcome onto the tour at the upcoming shows."

EVILE is hard at work on the material for the band's as-yet-untitled sophomore album, due later in teh year via Earache Records. Frontman Matt Drake previously stated about the new songs, "It always bugs me when bands talk up their upcoming album by saying the same things everyone else does like it's heavier and more broooootal and so on, so all I want to say is we're excited about what we're working on and it feels like a natural progression from our first effort, you'll all be able to make up your own minds on all that though when it's released later this year."
