Post Thrash Metal Italian veterans EVERSIN release “Soulgrinder” as the first song from their new album “Armageddon Genesi”. The track, featuring a great lead guitar played by Ralph Santolla (DEICIDE, DEATH, OBITUARY etc.) is presented through a lyric video, watch it below:
“Armageddon Genesi” will be out via My Kingdom Music on June 29th, 2018 and will present as special guest not only Ralph Santolla‘s guitar, but also Lee Wollenschlaeger (great vocalist in MALEVOLENT CREATION) performing lead vocals on the title-track. Expect the apex of EVERSIN’s career, for sure the most violent, heavy and furious act ever recorded by the Sicilian act.
Earlier today we got worrying news about RALPH SANTOLLA, former guitarist of Death, Iced Earth, Deicide, Obituary etc., that he suffered a heart attack on Tuesday night, and is now in a coma at St. Joseph’s Hospital in Tampa, Florida.
Sue Santolla-Rocha, Ralph’s mother, has posted via her Facebook page the following update, 6 hours ago:
“Friend and family..it is out there now so let me tell you what I know. Ralph thought he had a spider bite on Saturday. Went to the hospital. It was not a spider bite, it was a blood clot. Tuesday nite he fell and he had a heart attack. John Rocha gave him CPR until EMT arrive. His heart had stopped but they got him back. His visuals are staple but he is in a coma. He is on a ventilator but he is breathing around it he could breathe on his own but they do not want to had additional strain to his body. He is in a coma. That is the main concern at this moment. They can fix everything else. We are having as many of his friends as he can come and talk to him and play music. There has been a minimal movement but some. It is ICU but he is in a private room and they are letting anyone in and they can stay as long as they want. So please pray as he has people all over the world praying and if you can come and spend time with him. Please..he needs to get back from the place that he is in. I love you all…let’s just work on getting him out of the coma if we can. I will keep everyone update the best I can st Joseph hospital. Van dyke rd Tampa”
Our thoughts and good vibes are there with you, Ralph, don’t give up! \m/ Tarja and Metal Shock Finland crew!
Having made some of the most brutally aggressive music ever created, being one of four bands that defined an entire musical genre and the band other heavy acts are measured against and aspire to… after nearly 37 years, having released 12 studio albums, multiple live recordings, compilations, live video and box sets, playing nearly 3000 concerts across the globe, receiving countless awards including five Grammy nominations and two Grammy Awards, Gold certifications and other accolades… having its own exhibit in the Smithsonian Institute, gracing hundreds of magazine covers and experiencing the devastating loss of a founding brother, the age of SLAYER, one of the greatest and most legendary bands of all time, is coming to an end.
The band’s Slaytanic Wehrmacht fan club and O2 presales commence at 9.00am UK time on Wednesday 16th May and Live Nation’s pre-sales begins at 10.00am UK time Thursday 17th May.
A very limited number of SLAYER VIP packages will also be available over at www.slayer.net.

Death metal legends OBITUARY have announced an early Summer North American headline tour with support from Pallbearer, Skeletonwitch and Dust Bolt. The tour begins May 2nd in Atlanta, GA and ends June 3rd in Miami, FL. A full list of confirmed tour dates is available below (see the flyer).
OBITUARY comments on the tour:
“We are stoked about our North American tour and super excited to be back at the headlining spot. We have been very fortunate to be a part of some killer tours for our last few US/Canada runs as support to Carcass, Cannibal Corpse and Kreator but that came with limits on time and production value. Now it’s time to bust out the Big Guns, dig deep into our musical pockets and pull out some oldies but goodies!!
With 10 studio albums and over 100 songs in our catalog these days, it’s never easy choosing a set list and always causes some serious discussions and arguments amongst the band members so we are turning to the fans on this one. We want to hear from YOU what songs we should play and since everyone has their favorites we are really looking forward to hearing what you guys think. This should be fun, entertaining and interesting so make sure to comment on our social media pages with your top picks……Ready. Set. GO!!!!!!!!”
Additionally, OBITUARY will embark on a month-long Spring 2018 European headlining tour in March. The tour begins March 3 in Cologne, DE and ends April 1 in Schijndel, NL at Paaspop Festival.
OBITUARY’S self-titled new album is out now worldwide on CD/LP/Digital via Relapse Records. Physical and digital orders plus streams are available now at bit.ly/ObituaryST.
The band’s animated video for the song “Ten Thousand Ways To Die” has surpassed over 1.5 million views and can be viewed HERE. Watch the band’s recently released video for the song “Brave” AT THIS LOCATION. A full collection of OBITUARY music videos and live performances is available HERE.
OBITUARY’s self-titled album is receiving high end of the year praise charting on notable album of the year lists such as Rolling Stone (#14 – Best Metal) Revolver (#11), Decibel (#14) and Loudwire (#21) among numerous others.
