German death metallers RESURRECTED check in with the following update on their forthcoming EP:

"We've set Morbus as title for our upcoming 5-track EP, which will be mixed at the end of May by Jörg Uken at Soundlodge Recording Studios.

As you already know the EP will contain five tracks including the two new titles, 'Covered With Maggots' and 'Bewareness Of Truth', alongside a re-recording of 'Butchered In Excrement' and the two cover versions - FEAR FACTORY's 'Self Bias Resistor' and MASSACRE's 'Dawn Of Eternity'.

Stay tuned for more news on our upcoming work."

A previous update from the band states: "After his long lasting disease our vocalist Carsten is still not healthy enough to do any live shows in the future so he decided to retreat in order not to constrain the band's live ambitions. We all respect and understand his decision as we know how much he suffered in the past months/years and how long he struggled with the decision to leave the band as a founding member and the distinctive voice of Resurrected. But you can for sure hear Carsten on the upcoming EP on the vocals; we're all very sad to lose him as a band member.

The position on the mic will be taken by our long-time friend Christoph Mieves from GRIND INC. who already did some live shows on the last Portugal Tour with us! Chris is well known for his great death metal vocals and outstanding stage performance!

Another issue is that Hazim will leave the band because of his move to Bremen which does not allow us continuous rehearsing with all band members what we're used to and what Hazim either thinks to be necessary for further songwriting and live rehearsing. Hazim will play his 'Grindbye' show on this year's 10th anniversary NRW Deathfest! But as you may imagine we have already found a new beast on the battery: Dennis Thiele will take over the Resurrected wrecking duties in the future! We're all happy to have Dennis on board as a good friend and dedicated death metal maniac!

So the new Resurrected looks like the following:

Christoph Mieves - vokills

Dennis Thiele - drums

Ben Bays - bass

Thomas Granzow - guitars

Hope to see ya all live again in the next months, keep it sick!!!"
