BIOHAZARD have revealed that they are to hold open auditions to find a replacement for recently departed frontman Evan Seinfeld.

The pioneering New York natives announced Evan’s departure in June, with one-time member Scott Roberts temporarily covering for him during the band’s well-received performances at Download and Metal Hammer’s Golden Gods awards.

A statement from the band themselves reads as follows: “ATTENTION SINGERS!!! You think you got what it takes to be one of the voices for Biohazard? Send us your music, videos, links, etc. to auditions@biohazard.com and we’ll check you out. Experience is a must, as is the ability to commit 100% to the life of a full-time touring musician, as the band is booked solid for 2012 and 2013."

Biohazard recently revealed a few details about the bands forthcoming new album, which is going to be entitled Reborn In Defiance.The band's first mutual album in it's original lineup in 16 years will be released soon via Nuclear Blast Records.

A first song, 'Reborn', can now be streamed at this location.

Commented guitarist Billy Graziadei: "When we got back together in 2008, we erased the last memory of Biohazard in people's heads and replaced it with a new kick-ass memory of what Biohazard was all about back in the day. People heard we used to fuck shit up, but being back together again as the original Biohazard gave us a chance to re-write history. Now we're doing it once again with a brand new album. Our new album, Reborn In Defiance, is everything I love about Biohazard but more... in 2011! 100% ass-kicking in every way. See you in the pit!“
