VEX To Team Up With DIVINE EVE For Split EP

December 3, 2008

Texas-based metallers VEX, who feature in their ranks vocalist Orlando Logan Perez (AGAINST THE PLAGUES),will participate in a split EP with reunited Texas deathlords DIVINE EVE, to be released early next year.

Commented VEX guitarist Ciaran McCloskey: "We are simply honored to be a part of this release because DIVINE EVE is a band that I feel is of great significance to the development of death metal as a viable and creative force in both Texas and America as a whole. I think many of us will agree that the resurgence of DIVINE EVE's dark mysticism couldn't have come at a more appropriate time and we are honored to be a part of it.

"We will be contributing three new songs that we will begin recording next month with the engineering to be handled by our new guitarist Mike 'E.D.' Day. Eoghan [drummer Owen McCloskey] and I have been working on preproduction demos for these songs since the beginning of the year and we feel confident that it's our best material to date.

"Stylistically, the songs will continue in the dynamic extreme metal vein of [VEX's upcoming album] 'Thanatopsis' but will contain a slightly more pronounced emphasis on our folk and death metal leanings. It is very likely that these songs won't be recorded again so this release may be the only chance to hear them."

"Michael from DIVINE EVE is currently in contact with various labels to ensure that this release will be available in multiple formats across the globe."

VEX completed a U.S. tour in 2007 alongside AVENGER OF BLOOD and GODLESS RISING.

"Thanatopsis" is scheduled for release in early 2009 through Terranidon Media.
