UNHOLY GHOST are continuing to audition drummers, and a replacement for Lee "Aantar" Coates (ex-DIABOLIC) will be announced soon.

UNHOLY GHOST is the new band featuring DIABOLIC founding members Mortellaro and Paul Ouellette (vocals/bass),along with original DIABOLIC guitarist and PESSIMIST founder Kelly McLauchlin. The group's debut album, "Torrential Reign", was released in April through Olympic/Century Media Records. The CD was recorded at D.O.W. (Diet Of Worms) studios in Seffner, Florida with producer Juan "Punchy" Gonzalez (MORBID ANGEL).
