North Carolina doom metallers, HOUR OF 13 were pleased to introduce veteran vocalist, Ben Hogg (BIRDS OF PREY, BEATEN BACK TO PURE) into the fold this past Saturday night in New York City. He and the band played a powerful set to a packed NYC crowd all there to celebrate the band's recent reissue of THE RITUALIST, a modern classic of doom metal. Ben performed superbly and gave the band a stronger presence that will no doubt make the band a force to be reckoned with as widespread touring plans are falling into place in 2011.
