 | Blog author: Alex Stojanovic Well, things are looking bright for the future of Evile. The band have announced that after being without a label for quite some time now, they have signed a brand new deal with Napalm Records, and will be entering the studio tomorrow (Sep 17th) to record their long-awaited fifth studio album, which is due for release in early 2021. Just last month, the band announced some surprising news when they revealed that Matt Drake is no longer a part of the band, and they welcomed in Adam Smith of RipTide as their new rhythm guitarist, while Ol Drake takes over lead vocal duties and remaining on lead guitar. Ol Drake released the following statement regarding Evile's exciting future. |
"We're extremely excited to announce our signing to Napalm Records! We'd heard a lot of great things about Napalm over the years and it's an honor to join the ranks of some excellent bands. EVILE haven't released any music since 2013 so we promise to deliver a crushing thrash metal classic which I believe will surprise everyone; even the die-hard "Grave" fans. As previously announced, Matt is unfortunately no longer a part of the band, so I've taken over on vocal duties while remaining on lead guitar too. Also, please welcome our newest member, Adam Smith of RipTide, on rhythm guitar. We begin recording with producer and engineer Chris Clancy on September 17 at Andy Sneap's Backstage Studios. We can't wait for you to hear what we have in store!"
It has been seven long years since we've had new music from Evile, and as I've mentioned before, they were a huge part of the soundtrack to my college days from 2010-2013. Even though it won't be Matt Drake on vocals anymore, hearing new Evile music will certainly make me feel like I'm in my late teens and early 20s again. Really looking forward to some new Evile!
