Evile Unveil New Track, "Eternal Empire"

British thrashers EVILE have unveiled a brand new track, titled "Eternal Empire".

The new track is taken from EVILE's highly anticipated forthcoming new album, FIVE SERPENT'S TEETH, and gives fans their first glimpse at the new material.  FIVE SERPENT'S TEETH is due to be released on September 26th, 2011.

Listen to the incredible new track, "Eternal Empire", now at http://www.earache.com/fst

EVILE lead guitarist OL DRAKE comments:

"It is with great pleasure that we can release 'Eternal Empire' from our upcoming Five Serpent's Teeth album for your listening pleasure.  It was very difficult to pick a single track to showcase the vast diversity included on this album, and I think this one is a good medium to show the direction we have gone with on FST.  I can't wait for you to hear more of the album as, like I said, this album goes through quite a lot of different moods and emotions, in terms of feel and direction, yet is still rooted in the 'Evile sound'.  The awesome Daniel P. Carter of Radio 1's Rock Show will be playing the radio debut of the track TONIGHT on BBC Radio 1, so tune in!  We will also be showcasing another brand new track at Download Festival this weekend.  Lots of Serpent's Teeth coming your way!  See you on that road soon!"

UK fans can also listen out for "Eternal Empire" tonight (Monday, June 6th) between midnight and 2:00am on the BBC Radio 1 Rock Show with Daniel P. Carter.

Evile Guitarist Shows You How To Play The Band's Songs

Click to enlargeOL DRAKE, lead guitarist for British thrashers EVILE, has created a number of instructional guitar videos, showing fans how to play some of the band's most well-known tracks.

OL DRAKE comments:

"I get a lot of people asking me to tab out Evile songs, but I don't have the time.  This led me to take a look at the guitar tabs that were up online.  I love that people have taken the time to tab our songs out, but there are mistakes, so I thought why not show people all the little details that are always missed.  I don't want to do too many, as I think it's hugely beneficial to spend the time learning things by ear."

Evile Reveal New Album Title And Concept

Click to enlargeBritish thrashers EVILE have officially revealed that their forthcoming new album will be titled FIVE SERPENTS' TEETH.

EVILE recorded the highly-anticipated new album at Parlour Studios in Kettering, UK, with producer RUSS RUSSELL (NAPALM DEATH, DIMMU BORGIR), who also recorded the band's previous release, 2009's INFECTED NATIONS.

EVILE vocalist and rhythm guitarist MATT DRAKE has recorded a video message for the fans, in which he discusses the new album and the concept behind it.

Watch the video at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-tQ-9_AjDSk

EVILE lead guitarist OL DRAKE comments on FIVE SERPENTS' TEETH:

"The other day, Russ sent the final masters for the album over.  It sounded even better than I expected it to.  The past two years of hard work, and the work put in in the studio, have really paid off.  The few people who've heard the album so far have praised it highly, making me, and us, very proud.  The album has such a unique production sound which surprised me; Russ' skills have really shined on this record.  It has an old classic sound, while staying huge and menacing.  Keep an eye out for all things Evile, as 2011 will be a very busy year for us.  See you on A road!"

FIVE SERPENTS' TEETH is due to be released on Earache Records on August 29th.
