June 13, 2012, 12 years ago
EVILE have confirmed that fellow British metallers and label mates SAVAGE MESSIAH will be joining the band as special guests at their recently-announced hometown show, which takes place on November 3rd at the Picturedrome in Holmfirth, UK. The special show comes at the end of Evile's headlining October UK tour with Swedish heavy metal group WOLF.
Evile lead guitarist Ol Drake comments: "We're very pleased to announce the inclusion of our label mates Savage Messiah on our very special Halloween show in Holmfirth on November 3rd. We've known Mr Silver for many years and we had a great show with them at the HMV Ritz a few months ago. Guaranteed to be a very special show!"
Savage Messiah frontman David Silver adds: "It was a most pleasant surprise to be asked by our friends in Evile to open for them at their hometown show at The Picturedrome in Holmfirth. It's been a long time since the Gas Club in Huddersfield way back in the unsigned days (for anyone who remembers back that far!), so this should be an awesome night for all fans of UK metal. It's always an extremely metal night when Savage Messiah and Evile share the stage, so bring your neck braces!! See you at the front!"

Drummer Ben Carter comments: "We are really excited for our fans, both new and old, to see our video for 'In Memoriam'.fIt's a different sound and approach for us definitely, but we hope our fans appreciate the sentiment and reason this song exists. There's a lot of context in the song that everyone will at one time or another relate to, and we hope we have captured that essence in the video. We didn't want to rush this video and get it wrong at all; we didn't want there to be any falseness, so what we have created is something which we are all very proud of, which perfectly captures everything we felt after losing Mike, and moving forward with Joel. We hope this becomes a mainstay of our live set in the future, and we also hope that everyone who watches takes something positive from the video. Live life, and enjoy!"
