Italy’s Thrash-Death Metallers METHEDRAS have announced an important line-up change: vocalist Claudio and guitar player Eros, in the band since the very early years, mutually agreed to part ways with Methedras due to different priorities and commitments in their lives, the main reasons have to be related to the latest band engagements always more frequent due to the continous growth of the name in the scene.
So METHEDRAS will continue their path with two fresh new members who already showed on stage, during the latest live shows, their professionality, incredible artistic capacity, strength and dedication to this project. Bass player Andrea and drummer Daniele invite you all to give your warmest welcome to Martina Lesley McLean and Daniele “Dani” Colombo as, respectively, new official Methedras 2.0 vocalist and guitar player.
Daniele “Dani” Colombo
METHEDRAS are
Andrea Bochi – Bass, Martina L. McLean – Vocals, Daniele Colombo – Guitars, Daniele Gotti – Drums
Italian thrash-death-killing-machine METHEDRAS have signed with the historic American label Pavement Music for the worldwide release of their upcoming album System Subversion, planned to be out on November 11. A trailer video of the new album, featuring consistent parts of all the performed songs, can be viewed below:
Furthermore METHEDRAS also reached an agreement with the talented booking agency Truck Me Hard for the promotion of the band image over the whole Italian territory.
Last but not least, a line-up change has to be outlined as the former guitar player Eros Mozzi decided to part ways with the rest of the band due to other priorities in his life commitments. His place has been promptly taken by Daniele Colombo, already in the line-up as live session man on the guitars since a year, who becomes now an official and effective Methedras member.
For Metal Temple System Subversion “holds an awesome wall of brutality packed with the ability to release all of that anger inside of you and go absolutely crackers!!”
Glacially Musical says System Subversion “is a spectacular effort by a veteran metal band!!”
According to Two Guys Metal Reviews, System Subversion “wants you to thrash tonight!!”
Wonderbox Metal writes about System Subversion “A state-of-the-art heavy and crisp!!”
Swirls of Noise outlines “Methedras’ System Subversion is a great groovy thrash metal album which spits venom and busts heads!!”
