EVILE ANNOUNCES CANADIAN TOUR WITH 3 INCHES OF BLOOD

UK thrashers, EVILE will embark on their first ever trip to the
western hemisphere as they tour Canada this October with the country's
number 1 falsetto-singing, fist pumping metal warriors, 3 INCHES OF
BLOOD.

This tour is a big moment in the history of EVILE as it marks the
first time the band will play shows in the great white north and the
first time the band has ever toured outside of their half of the
world. EVILE is extremely excited to see all of their crazy Canadian
fans for the first time and is just as excited to play with longtime
favorites of theirs, 3 INCHES OF BLOOD!

EVILE guitarist, Ol Drake gave a few words on how he and his band
first discovered the music of tourmates-to-be 3 INCHES OF BLOOD: "I
remember hearing 3 INCHES OF BLOOD when we started EVILE back in 03/04
(in the rehearsal room whilst writing) and was surprised to hear
someone doing that style of metal at that time. It was a relief to
hear, even though I was heavilly into just Death and Thrash metal only
then."

From local UK act to international thrash sensations, EVILE have a
lot to be proud of and can't wait to show Canada what they're all
about this October with 3 INCHES OF BLOOD. "I can't wait to drown in 3
INCHES OF BLOOD!" says Drake, who jests "...Too cheesy? Fuck you!"

Widely regarded as the hardest song to play on the mutimillion selling
smash video game franchise, Rock Band, EVILE'S signature song,
"Thrasher" (downloaded over 100,000 times) is one of the tracks
featured as downloadable content in the Earache Thrash Pack, which
also includes tracks from AT THE GATES and THE HAUNTED, available now
on Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3.

UK thrashers EVILE have played some big stages in front of big crowds,
but
now you can watch as they tackle one of the biggest challenges of their
career - trying not to fail at their own song in the hit HARMONIX
video game ROCK BAND. Will they be victorious or will they fall prey
to to the toughest song Rock Band has to offer - their own song - and
fail as so many others have done before them? The only way to find out
is to watch here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Tu5eoFwwKI

EVILE recently completed filming for their first ever music video for
the
song "Thrasher". Filmed in South London with producer DAN FERNBACH
(BULLET
FOR MY VALENTINE, KIDS IN GLASS HOUSES) of STATIC FILMS, the "Thrasher"
video shows the band doing what they do best - putting on a display of
pure,
raw thrash! Check out some exclusive photos from the shoot at
