Devil’s Train, the new band featuring Mystic Prophecy mainman/producer R.D. Liapakis, Stratovarius drummer Jörg Michael and guitarist Lakis Ragazas, has announced the addition of bassist Jari Kainulainen to the group’s ranks.

Kainulainen is a Finnish bassist who plays in the power metal supergroup Symfonia. He was previously a member of  Killing Machine, Stratovarius and the progressive power metal band Evergrey. Kainulainen plays Ibanez six-string basses and uses Ampeg amplifiers. He is influenced by Geezer Butler, Billy Sheehan, Cliff Burton and Steve Harris.

Commented Liapakis: “Jari is fully professional and has had much experience both in studio and in performing. His playing is the perfect missing part to complete the sound of the band as I pictured it when I first got the idea for DEVIL’S TRAIN as apart from his skilled playing he also enhances his performances with distinctive feeling and groove.”
