EVILE Kick Off UK Tour Tonight
April 15, 2009, 15 years ago
British thrashers EVILE are set to kick off their first full headlining UK tour tonight in Birmingham. Support on the tour will come from MUTANT and TRIGGER THE BLOODSHED, who have just been confirmed to replace WARPATH on the bill after the band were forced to pull out.
Evile lead guitarist Ol Drake comments: "On Sunday 12th April, Warpath let us know they have to pull out of our tour due to their lead guitarist being 'indirectly involved in a motorcycle accident' on the 8th. 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 accommodate 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 TTB 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's debut album Enter The Grave is available now as a limited edition redux version and includes an Evile guitar pick and an Enter The Grave patch, plus an exclusive 2-hour bonus DVD.
