Joel: “I’d just like to say how much I’m looking forward to the upcoming tour with the band, and can’t wait to meet all the Evile fans personally. Since the announcement was made about me joining Evile, the words of support have been overwhelming in what is ultimately a very difficult position in the band to fill. All I will say is, I will do my best every night of the tour and contribute what I can to keep this band stronger than ever. See you on tour, and thank you..”

Good luck to him. It’s not gonna be the same without Mike but hey, The show must go on and having listened to his playing in Rise To Addiction I think he’ll do fine.

sweet, seeing em in London later in the month. Warbringer are my favourite Thrash band atm too, underrated (well… under-appreciated amongst the community and lesser known). Their latest album is flawless!

i think

i dont get what the big deal is about. i can truthfully say ive never listened to a record and thought “THIS BAND HAS AN AMAZING BASS PLAYER”

Re: i think

So you’ve never listened to any iron maiden or any of the first 3 metallica albums?

I always listen to the different instruments in a record.

So you’ve never thought that about Maiden? Cannibal Corpse? Sabbath? RHCP?

Man i was meant to see them in norway the day Mike died… cant believe i missed out on these guys… anyone know if the cover of cemetay gates these guys did was Mike or Joel?
