ENTOMBED A.D. have posted, via their Official Facebook page, the sad news about passing of the band’s leader and vocalist Lars-Göran Petrov.
“We are devastated to announce that our beloved friend Lars-Göran Petrov has left us. Our brother, leader, vocalist, our Chief Rebel Angel went on another ride last night. It’s with the deepest sadness that we have to announce that Lars-Göran Petrov has left us. He was (is!!!) an incredible friend, and a person that has touched so many people. He has changed so many lives with his voice, his music, his character and his unique personality. LG’s smile is something that we will carry forever in our hearts. When asked in an interview what he would like to have written on his grave and what about his legacy, he said: “I will never die, it will never die”. And you didn’t. You will live forever in our hearts.” R.I.P. LG Petrov
Metal Injection has posted the performance video of MEGADETH + CARCASS + TESTAMENT + ABYSMAL DAWN members covering ENTOMBED A.D.‘s “Living Dead”, feat.

Steve stated: “Check out this Entombed A.D. cover jam!!! It was part of the Metal Injection – Slay At Home show. Really cool to jam together with these guys and cover some old school death metal. Entombed was a big influence on me in the early days; the 1st album as well as the Nihilist demo. You can hear that influence in some of the stuff I wrote on Sadus – Swallowed In Black. You probably know by now, the singer of Entombed A.D., Lars Petrov is not doing very well. He’s still in the hospital in Stockholm doing chemotherapy for a brutal cancer. I want to dedicate this video and my performance to LG. One of the nicest guys, and a funny dude. Hoping this tribute can shine a tiny light in a dark place. SDG🤘🏻”
Please Note, STEVE DI GIORGIO is available for studio sessions as well as session bassist for tours. For further information, please contact Alpha Omega Management.
The fretless guru, STEVE DI GIORGIO doesn’t need any longer introductions, as he is widely renowned as a pioneer on the fretless bass in heavy metal music, being the bassist of TESTAMENT, DEATH and SADUS, among others. Within his genre, STEVE DI GIORGIO is respected for his playing skills, versatility and incredible technique. He has more than 40 studio album recordings and over 20 years of touring the world.

With “Elimination” death metal force ENTOMBED A.D. unleash the second single off their forthcoming album “Bowels Of Earth”, out August 30th via Century Media Records. The new album represents a huge leap forward for these gnarly veterans. Faster, tighter and more viscerally crushing than anything they have produced before.
LG Petrov comments:
“Chainsaw guitars, feral vocals bark and raw blasting drums. Please disgust yourself with our new track and video for Elimination!”

ABORTED are touring in support of their much-lauded latest album “TerrorVision” (2018) whereas ENTOMBED A.D. will be releasing a new record entitled “Bowels Of Earth” on August 30 th, and BAEST follow up with their second offering “Venenum” on September 13th.
ABORTED comment:
“We are extremely honoured and stoked to announce this year’s Hell over Europe! This time we get to co-headline with one of the genre defining masters ENTOMBED A.D., a band we all grew up listening to and shaped a great deal of our musical career, no more words needed to explain how big of a deal this is to us. And if that wasn’t enough, the mighty BAEST from Denmark will open the hostilities, one of our favorite newcomers of the last years (even if one of their members really just stole Sven’s name and added a ‘d’ to it for god knows what reason) will leave your neck twisted and turned. Come on out to Hell over Europe, the death metal party of the year!!! Oh, we might also have a couple of sweet new surprises for you guys :)” Sven / ABORTED
ENTOMBED A.D. states:
“With a new album in the bag, which is coming out August 30th, we are going on a European tour with our friends in ABORTED and BAEST! See you on the road headbangers!”
BAEST add:
“Touring with the greats that developed the genre you say? Nah, fat chance! They’re legends. Touring with boundary shattering grind-gods that redefined live shows in the extreme niche? How would that be possible, dear, we are but some Danish newcomers…BOOM, proud to be a part of this bone crushing line-up!” Svend / BAEST
The “Hell Over Europe III” tour kicks off October 18th in London and wraps up November 17th in Hamburg. Tickets are on sale now!

Nobody can cheat death. And nobody can cheat at death metal either. Flying the flag for balls-out and murderous death metal since 2014, ENTOMBED A.D. are poised to return with one of 2019’s most devastating, deathly statements. Their new album will be entitled “Bowels Of Earth” and will be released on August 30th, on Century Media Records!
“Bowels Of Earth” represents a huge leap forward for these gnarly veterans. Faster, tighter and more viscerally crushing than anything they have produced before.
“We have our Brazilian friend, Guilherme, coming into the band on guitar and” laughs LG. “We’ve been getting energy from that. This recording was a lot more focused and straightforward. We kept things simple, but still with thought behind everything. And there was absolutely no stress!”
Keep your eyes peeled for more info on “Bowels of Earth”!
