He will release a statement shortly. We\u2019re sad to see him go, but we\u2019re excited about the new road ahead of us. As you can probably guess, this is why there hasn\u2019t been a fifth Evile album yet, and for that we apologise.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe new album is fully written, we\u2019re ready to hit the studio, and we are currently working on a record deal. I will be taking over as the band\u2019s frontman \/ vocalist while also staying on lead guitar. We\u2019re also happy to announce our new member and rhythm guitarist is Adam Smith from RipTide; a band and friends local to us. Please give him a warm welcome!<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe new material is in a much more aggressive vein as it feels like the natural progression for Evile; my vocal style is a much less melodic approach. We have the song titles, album title, and art confirmed and there will be an announcement soon!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The band are currently negotiating a record deal and aim for a late 2020 \/ early 2021 release for the new album.<\/p>\n<p>Evile\u2019s full line-up is as follows:<\/p>\n<p>Ol Drake (vocals and lead guitar)<br \/>\nAdam Smith (rhythm guitar, RipTide)<br \/>\nJoel Graham (bass, ex-Rise To Addiction)<br \/>\nBen Carter (drums)<\/p>\n<p>Fourth studio record <a href=\"\/site\/album-review-evile-skull\/\"><em>Skull<\/em><\/a> was released in May 2013 via Earache.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>EVILE Announce Line-Up Changes And New Studio Album August 12th, 2020 Huddersfield, England-based thrash metal band Evile have announced a new line-up, as well as plans to record their fifth full-length studio album and follow-up to 2013\u2019s Skull.
