EVILE REVEALS NEW ALBUM TITLE, COVER AND TRACK LIST

British thrash masters EVILE are ready to reveal to the world their brand
new album, INFECTED NATIONS, which is due to be released on September 21st
in Europe and on September 22nd in the USA.

Following EVILE's 2007 debut, ENTER THE GRAVE - an homage to the thrash of
past - the band are now hitting out and marking a new milestone of their own
with INFECTED NATIONS.

EVILE frontman MATT DRAKE comments on INFECTED NATIONS:

"We can't wait for everyone to hear our new album, when we did Enter the
Grave two years ago it was made up of songs we had been playing for a few
years and some written in the excitement of actually getting to record an
album, we were happy to just be making noise but since then we've learnt a
few things and we're more interested in making music. Evile fans can expect
to hear a more mature offering, an album that concentrates on all aspects of
what each member can do; it's a heck of a lot more focused, more satisfying
and we're really proud of what we've achieved with it. Russ Russell has
helped us to push ourselves to the next level and pull us out of the '80s.
The whole retro thing has been cool but we feel it's time for us to leave
that behind and stand up for ourselves and show people what we can really
do, but fear not, it IS a thrash metal album, it is a 2009 thrash metal
album, and we're dying to blow your minds with it."

INFECTED NATIONS was produced by RUSS RUSSELL (NAPALM DEATH), with the cover
art created by MICHAEL WHELAN, famous for his sci-fi artworks along with
classic album covers from such bands as SEPULTURA and OBITUARY. Check out
the incredible cover art for INFECTED NATIONS at
http://earacherecords.com/myspace/EvileInfectedNations.jpg

EVILE lead guitarist OL DRAKE comments on getting WHELAN involved:

"When we were thinking about artists we could approach for the album's art,
we went through many ideas and avenues. One day I was listening to 'Beneath
the Remains' by Sepultura, and whilst looking at the artwork, I thought how
much that simple yet detailed art really compliments the music. I thought
"How good would it be to get Michael Whelan to do an original piece?". I
think Matt said something like "Haha yeah, like that'll happen", so as you
do, I contacted his manager and got in touch with him. It turned out he was
really interested in the concept of the art and jumped right on board. I
think an album's art is just as important as the music on the disc, so I
couldn't be happier with it. Can't wait to see it on vinyl (with a
backpatch maybe?).

"It's such an honour to have a legendary, outstanding artist work with us on
a brand new original piece, when just months previous to it starting, we
thought it impossible. Thank you Michael for giving the album even more
depth and meaning!"

You can also check out a video of OL DRAKE revealing and discussing the
artwork at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vqTzI7gQG2c

The full track listing for INFECTED NATIONS is as follows:

01. Infected Nation
02. Now Demolition
03. Nosophoros
04. Genocide
05. Plague To End All Plagues
06. Devoid Of Thought
07. Time No More
08. Metamorphosis
09. Hundred Wrathful Deities

GAMA BOMB - LIVE VIDEOS OF NEW TRACKS AVAILABLE

Irish thrashers GAMA BOMB recently supported reunited thrash legends LAWNMOWER DETH at a special warm-up show in Milton Keynes, with LAWNMOWER DETH preparing for their appearance at the Download festival in the UK, and GAMA BOMB preparing for their Summer appearances at Hellfest in France, and Tuska Open Air in Finland.

GAMA BOMB frontman PHILLY BYRNE comments on the gig:

"Playing with Lawnmower Deth was a bizarre but really fun experience. It was like a normal metal gig had been injected with silly sauce. When you play to those old-school crowds they don't need to get to know you; they just accept you immediately. It was class."

Fans who were lucky enough to attend the special gig were also treated to some brand new GAMA BOMB tracks. PHILLY BYRNE continues:

"Our new stuff is written with the mantra 'faster than the last' in mind, because we're always ramping up our speed limit, and we think 'more about less ideas' when it comes to lyrics. These songs are about us sticking to our guns and doing the same thing - just louder and better than before! There'll be no acoustic guitar or synths on the new album, that's for sure."

New Metal Army were at the show to shoot video footage of GAMA BOMB performing. Check out videos of some of the songs played, including two brand new tracks, at the following locations:

Hell Trucker / Zombi Brew:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hjcz2GNH4WU
Steel Teeth (The Metal Jaw):

Polterghost (new track):
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=949dHV8tPRw
Skeletron (new track):
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KZVVZBKYU2c

GAMA BOMB are now focussing on their upcoming appearances at Hellfest on Saturday and Tuska Open Air the following weekend. PHILLY BYRNE describes the band's excitement:

"We're looking at our sets at Hellfest and Tuska Open Air as the most important and coolest shows we've ever done. We're anticipating it so much there's smoke coming out of our ears. I've been getting up extra early all week and practicing smashing glasses with my shrieks - it hasn't worked so far, but it's certainly getting my neighbours agitated. It's safe to say that if these aren't the best shows we've ever done, we'll eat our own hi-tops."

UFC FIGHTER DAN HARDY OFFICIALLY SPONSORED BY EARACHE RECORDS

UFC (Ultimate Fighting Championship) fighter DAN "THE OUTLAW" HARDY, who is
currently preparing for his next fight at UFC 99, is now officially
sponsored by Earache Records.

Earache Records - which has been pioneering extreme metal for over 20 years
- is proud to sponsor DAN HARDY, a self-professed metal fan who hails from
Earache's home town of Nottingham and is taking extreme fighting to the next
level as he enters his third UFC event.

DAN HARDY comments on the sponsorship:

"I'm really excited to be with Earache Records! I have been listening to
bands on their label since I was in my teens and to now be working with them
is great. I think both parties will benefit from the collaboration."

HEAR EXCLUSIVE WORLD PREMIERE OF 3 NEW MUNICIPAL WASTE SONGS

Earache recording artists MUNICIPAL WASTE are set to premiere three brand
new songs in the early hours of Tuesday morning on MIKE DAVIES' "The Lock
Up" on BBC Radio 1.

The three, previously unheard tracks come from MUNICIPAL WASTE's upcoming
new studio album, MASSIVE AGGRESSIVE, due to be released by Earache Records
in Europe on August 24th, and the day after in the USA. The songs set to be
included on the show are "Wrong Answer", "Wolves Of Chernobyl" and "Acid
Sentence". An interview with MUNICIPAL WASTE vocalist TONY FORESTA will
also be included on the show.

Tune in to the MIKE DAVIES show on Tuesday, 9th June at 2:00am UK time on FM

The show will also be available to listen to online for a week after it
airs.

MUNICIPAL WASTE frontman TONY FORESTA comments:

"We felt the Radio 1 Lock Up show would be the best place to premiere the
new Waste tracks since we've been friends with Mike for a while now and he's
been a supporter of the band since we started. We are also looking forward
to playing the Lock Up stage at Reading and Leeds this year. It will be our
third time playing and we plan on levelling the place this time around!"

MUNICIPAL WASTE REVEALS COVER ART FOR 'MASSIVE AGGRESSIVE'

The Richmond, VA crossover leaders, MUNICIPAL WASTE have a new album
coming out on August 25th. Entitled MASSIVE AGGRESSIVE, this album
brings the promise of the band's most ferocious and most focused album
of their career. With such ferocity flowing through the whole of the
album, the band knew they needed the right visuals to compliment the
vibe of the music. According to MUNICIPAL WASTE vocalist, Tony
Foresta, the only man who could get that imagery just right was Andrei
Bouzikov, the artist responsible for the cover to 2007's THE ART OF
PARTYING.

"We wanted to work with Andrei Bouzikov again because he is like a
brother to us;" says the MUNICIPAL WASTE vocalist. "He is one of the
few people that can tolerate me and Ryan's insane pickiness and
attention to detail. Not only that but he is multi talented and can do
many different styles of art and understands exactly where we are
coming from."

The attitude on MASSIVE AGGRESSIVE is quite different than any other
MUNICIPAL WASTE record and the band needed the artwork to make it
apparent from the very first glance. "We knew we wanted to stray away
from the traditional painted covers that so many new "Thrash" bands
seem to be doing since HAZARDOUS MUTATION came out;" says Tony. "We
wanted the artwork to go a different direction the same way that our
music has. I think we have achieved it." Overall, Tony and the rest of
the band feel it's a perfect representation of where the band is today
and show much gratitude for how it turned out. "I'm really happy with
it. It's my favorite one yet. Thanks Andre!"

Fresh off of the biggest North American tour of their career,
Richmond, VA's MUNICIPAL WASTE will soon be doing what they do best
once again as they are set to play a European tour beginning in late-
June. However, before they even set foot overseas, the band will be
