Philadelphia based metallers SINGLE BULLET THEORY have posted some guitar snippets from Harry Lannon and Pat Brose. These samples are from the band's forthcoming album, The Arena, due out in early 2013:

Frontman Matt DiFabio recently checked in with the following update:

"So, a few days ago I announced that there was some band member changes going on here in the Single Bullet Theory camp. Here is the skinny!

Joe Brannigan is no longer with the group. He has decided to focus on his martial arts training and wants to dedicate more time to his other band OF WRATH AND RUIN. I'm sad to see Joe go but wish him the best of luck with all of his endeavors. He did however write a killer song and it will be featured on the new SBT record The Arena.

So, this brings me to the second part of the news. We are proud to announce that we have found a new guitarist and are currently getting him up to speed. Id like to welcome Harry Bartholomew Lannon into the fold. Harry is an exceptional lead and rhythm player and we intend to make the triple guitar attack even more insane now! Harry will be making is live debut with the group on our March weekend runs.

In addition, we are looking for a permanent drummer still. Nick has been kind enough to continue to fill in. However, as it gets closer to his expected time of arrival for his baby, it will become much harder to schedule performances. So, if anyone knows someone who might be able to actually play SBT material. Please have 'em get in touch asap here.

That's all for now, I'm going back to work on the new record!"

Single Bullet Theory made the recently recorded track ‘Edge Of Broken’ available for $1 download via their Bandcamp page. The song is a reworked piece of older material that will appear as a bonus track on the band's new album.
