The new song 'Rules Of Engagement' is currently streaming online at BraveWords.com - head to the left-hand-side of the site to launch the KnuckleTracks Online Audio Player.

Guitarist Ilias Papadakis commented: “On Evolution, we have succeeded to combine old school thrash metal, with a modern touch, fast and aggressive, but at the same time, melodic and powerful. I’m sure that Evolution will satisfy the appetite of the diehard fans of thrash metal!”

Evolution was composed, produced and recorded by Papadakis in 2011.

Perez (ex-C:REAL).
