EVILE FRONTMAN COMMENTS ON UPCOMING NORTH AMERICAN TOUR

British thrashers EVILE, who recently won a coveted Metal Hammer Golden Gods award, are currently preparing for a huge North American tour, which kicks off at the end of September and runs through until just before Christmas.

For EVILE, this will be their second mammoth North American trek in 2010, after the band spent two months on the road in the USA and Canada earlier this year.

EVILE vocalist and guitarist MATT DRAKE comments:

"For the second time this year, Evile are proud to be able to say we're coming across the pond to play some more shows throughout America and Canada.  Last time we were there for two months, this time we're staying for three, playing at loads of places we never went to last time, but also revisiting many places we played at with the mighty Overkill and Kreator earlier in the year.  We just can't get enough of it!

"This time we're joining up with Overkill, Forbidden, Early Man, Gama Bomb and Bonded By Blood for many different tours, also some headline shows of our own, so if you saw us play last time, make sure you come and see us again and bring everyone you know for some metal madness!"
