It’s been a good few years
since Huddersfield thrashers Evile played live
in their hometown. The last time they did, they’d only just signed to Earache
following their crushing performance at Bloodstock 2006. Since then, they’ve
experienced great success, releasing two killer albums, supporting names such
as Megadeth, Overkill, Destruction etc., touring the festival circuit and
touring across North America and much more besides. Tragedy struck with the
death of bassist Mike Alexander in October 2009; however, the band has continued
to go from strength to strength, riding the new wave of thrash metal with ease
towards the very top.
Expectation is at fever
pitch for their forthcoming new album ‘Five Serpent’s Teeth’, which is set to
see them further expand their sound and hit new heights – the album’s currently
riding high at #15 in HMV’s pre-order chart and closing on bland pop fodder! Check out 'Eternal Empire' after the jump.
It’s fantastic to see
Evile flying the flag for metal in the UK
and indeed flying the flag for Yorkshire
talent, and now we have the news that Evile are to return for a one-off
performance at the Holmfirth Picturedrome on Sunday October 2nd!
Support is coming from
Toranaga and Grieve, and tickets are priced handsomely at just £6.00! So what
are you waiting for, citizens of Huddersfield
and beyond? It’s time to salute your local thrash metal heroes!
