January 13, 2015, 9 years ago
Chicago-based death metallers, Broken Hope, recently overhauled their lineup by adding new bassist, Diego Soria of Disgorge, and new lead-guitarist, Matt Szlachta (ex-Chimaira).
Broken Hope founding-father, Jeremy Wagner, says: "I'm far beyond delighted with our new members - Diego and Matt. Both of these guys are old friends of mine, and both are amazing musicians of the highest order. Diego's history with extreme death-metaller's, Disgorge, and Matt's contributions to Chimaira, bring a new level of professionalism and brutality to Broken Hope. Moreover, Diego and Matt possess a true love for death metal and grind. Their passion for extreme metal was something their predecessors lacked - and it's a most-welcome adrenaline-shot that Broken Hope needed badly. See you all in 2015 - STRONGER & SICKER THAN EVER!"
