January 19, 2012, 12 years ago
LOCK UP - featuring singer Tomas Lindberg (AT THE GATES, DISFEAR), bassist Shane Embury (NAPALM DEATH, VENOMOUS CONCEPT), drummer Nick Barker (ex-CRADLE OF FILTH, DIMMU BORGIR) and guitarist Anton Reisenegger (PENTAGRAM, CRIMINAL) - will embark on a nine-date North American tour with support from GOATWHORE and STRONG INTENTION in February.
Due to prior commitments with Napalm Death, Shane Embury will not be able to tour with the band. Filling in on the trek is the equally legendary Dan Lilker (NUCLEAR ASSAULT, BRUTAL TRUTH, S.O.D., VENOMOUS CONCEPT).
"It's a pleasure and an honor to (briefly) step in for Mr. Shane Embury and hold down the bass for Lock Up for these East Coast shows,” commented Lilker. “Hope to see all the grindfreaks come out and experience the mayhem. Full speed ahead, fuckers!"
