Back in the early 80s, the Danish heavy metal scene was taking its first steps, learning a (very) own path away from the strong rock and punk rock backgrounds that the country provided their youth. Those were the years where the highly acclaimed metal bands Mercyful Fate and Artillery took form. But also a few others that, in the following years, saw their career follow different paths and fates, loading to disbanding with a band or simply fading away. Formed in 1983, Copenhagen-natives EVIL were one of these bands. Their debut demo, already in \u201883, set the Danish heavy metal on fire with their heavy metal frenzy and their now-mythical 1984 EP \u201cEvil\u2019s Message\u201d was the confirmation that Denmark had probably one of the strongest metal scenes in Europe back then. Unfortunately, that wasn\u2019t meant to last and the band disappeared from circulation in 1985.<\/p>\n
A return to action was later tried in 2015, with original drummer Freddie Wolf, now on guitars, leading a new line-up that released the debut album \u201cShoot The Messenger\u201d. But Evil\u2019s career still wasn\u2019t meant to be and the band laid dormant again… Until now!
\nThe mighty Evil is now re-born with new joining members including vocalist Martin Steene (Iron Fire, ex-Force Of Evil), drummer Henrik Molin (ex-Shadowspawn), bassist Jakob Haugaard (Iron Fire) and guitarist Nikolaj Ihlemann (ex-Nightlight), continuing the original inspirations of bands like Judas Priest and Accept.<\/p>\n
In its current re-vitalized form, Evil has recorded ten new songs. The album, titled \u201cThe Book Of Evil\u201d, was produced in Hellfire Studio, Copenhagen, and Antfarm Studio, Aarhus, mixed and co-produced by rewarded metal producer\/mixer Tue Madsen. \u201cWe have made the new material in the spirit of the eighties but with a modern metal state of mind\u201d Freddie Wolf says.<\/p>\n
The band is now ready to take back a leading role among old-school metal bands.<\/p>\n
Evil is coming!<\/p>\n
