IMPALED NAZARENE Parts Ways With Guitarist, Announces Replacement

Finnish extreme metalelrs IMPALED NAZARENE have issued the following update:

"Tuomio [lead guitar] has decided to step aside from IMPALED NAZARENE. His decision is personal and we thank him for everything he did with us the last four years and wish him the best of luck for his future adventures. Tomi UG Ullgren is our new lead guitarist, many of you have already witnessed him with us on stage as he has been a session member of this band since 2000, done various tours with us etc. This change will not affect any of our forthcoming shows.

"We have now finished recording vocals of our new album 'Manifest'. Sounds fucking killer. 'Manifest' will be mixed at Sonic Pump studio by Tapio Pennanen at late July and mastered at Finnvox studio by Mika Jussila mid-August. We also decided with Osmose that 'Manifest' will be put out as double 10" vinyl instead of normal 12". We will now start working on cover and layout with our house artist Ritual."

01. Intro: Greater Wrath
02. The Antichrist Files
03. Pandemia

05. Die Insane

The band previously stated about the new CD, "This album is definitely the most varied one since 'Suomi Finland Perkele'. Even more than said 'Suomi Finland Perkele'. We have slow shit, fast shit, rocking shit. Shit that will kick your ass. Some surprises for sure. Lyrically, in case you did not guess, this one deals with all possible bullshit we have faced during the last couple of years. You got it, wrath falls upon lots of people. Well, let me rephrase this. Wrath falls upon all sub-humans. You know who you are, choke on bratwurst you pathetic cock-suxxors!!!"
