Norwegian extreme metal horde KEEP OF KALESSIN have issued the following update:

"We're happy to announce that Keep Of Kalessin drummer Vyl finally is endorsed by Pearl. Vyl has worked hard for this and he is finally starting to get recognition as one of the worlds leading drummers, much to his diverse capabilities in both the very fast and slower, groovy playing style. Pearl has provided a great drum kit for our north american tour which both Dave from PSYCROPTIC and Max from EX DEO also are using. We appreciate the support from Pearl and hope that it will be a long and symbiotic relationship."

As previously reported, Keep Of Kalessin are confirmed to appear on the DYING FETUS headlined 2011 Bonecrusher Fest tour. Also appearing on the tour are CARNIFEX, ANNOTATIONS OF AN AUTOPSY, FLESHGOD APOCALYPSE, and ANGELUS APATRIDA.
