Angelo Espino, whose work in thrash metal includes HIRAX, REVEREND, DISSINTER, UNCLE SLAM, ONCE DEAD, VERMIN, LSN, and many others has officially joined the ranks of OSM Records artist ANGER AS ART. The band released the following statement:

“This was a coup for us to get someone of his calibre. We knew that a change was going to happen with Javier. However the timetable was moved up very rapidly in March. It came to our attention that Angelo was available and interested, so we made him an offer. Angelo and Dave played together in what we thought was Hirax’s best lineup – so they have that rhythm section vibe already in place, and it really shows when we play live. We wish Javier the best, and we part as friends and family.”

Espino’s first shows with Anger As Art were at Seattle Metal Fest on April 5, and also in support of TESTAMENT, and OSM label mates LAAZ ROCKIT in Southern California. For the So Cal dates, AAA contracted Medal Media Productions to shoot a concert video – which should see an early summer release. More information forthcoming.

Anger As Art plan to enter the studio to begin work on album number three (as of yet untitled) in September or October – after additional appearances in the USA and Europe this summer. In additional news, Anger As Art lead guitarist William Rustrum has been welcomed into the family of artists using SFARZO Strings. “He loves them! Write to him, and let him explain why!”
