DENIAL FIEND frontman Kam Lee (MASSACRE) has issued the following update:

"Denial Fiend is busy working on several things at the moment. First of all we've confirmed several US festivals including the Los Angeles Murderfest in April, and the Central Ill Metal Fest later this July. We're also working on a few European festivals throughout the summer and will release more information as those dates get confirmed.

Additionally Denial Fiend's been creating brand new material including two tracks, 'C.H.U.D.' ( Cannibalistic Humanoid Under Dweller ) - based on of the 1984 movie with the same title, and The Blood Reaping - which is based on of the horror comic strip called 'The Blood Reaping Of Dr. Gore' created by horror artist Zornow.

I've been talking with artist Zornow about new art concepts and ideas for future Denial Fiend projects which will include new T-shirt designs, new album cover art as well as a mini horror/gore comic book by Zornow (to be included with the next DEnial Fiend release.)

Also in the works from my end... keep an eye out for the new release by the band BLOOD FREAK out on Razorback Records. Their new album is intitled - Scared Stiff - and it was 'yours truly' that wrote the lyrics for the title track. I will hopefully be doing a guest vocal appearance on that track as well!

So 2008 will be a Horrorfilled year indeed, with the horror metal legion growing stronger and Denial Fiend leading the zombie hordes onward to cunsume as much fresh flesh and brains as we can devour!"

Meanwhile Denial Fiend guitarist Sam Williams adds: "We will be playing on March 7th at the Crowbar in Tampa, FL. We will play several covers (SAMHAIN, THE ACCUSED, MISFITS) on top of our regular set showcasing songs from last year's debut full-length, They Rise. The show will be recorded for a possible upcoming release on Ibex Moon Records sometime this year. We're proud to perform cover songs from bands that have influenced us greatly throughout the years. Hopefully we'll play a few of them good enough to be released. In any case, it'll be a lot of fun."
