June 21, 2012, 12 years ago
Edmonton, AB based metallers ALL ELSE FAILS have announced the addition of new drummer Shane Tym to their lineup after the departure of Tom Wolf. Tym, who has been drumming for the last 15 years and was born in Edmonton but grew up in Chilliwack, BC and has played in multiple bands, will be making his AEF debut at this year's Normfest in Fishing Lake, AB on August 4th.
AEF vocalist/ guitarist Barrett Klesko also comments: "Over the past couple of years we have tried out a handful of drummers, and though we have had some great times with some fantastic musicians, we have yet to find a really good fit for the project. Until now! We are excited to announce that Shane Tym of Edmonton will be filling the spot. He is a fantastic drummer who is an excellent fit for All Else Fails. You will be able to hear him on our next album, which we are already in the process of writing."
All Else Fails unleashed their latest album, The Oracle, What Was, Is And Could Have Been, on Suicidal Bride Records last year and have been touring strong across Canada since its release. The band will now hit the studio for their follow up.
In additional news, the band has launched a new web series called Breaking Acclaim that features AEF's satirical sense of humour along with their road side antics. Episode 1, titled Kanye West Is Still A Giant Douche, can be seen below:
