We have added the technical thrash metalers REVOCATION and also WITHERED to what will promise to be a great night. The tour will also mark the unveiling of the new lineup of MORBID ANGEL featuring Scott Fuller ( Annihilated, Errorgeist), on drums, and Dan Vadim Von ( guitarist / frontman of the American death metal band VadimVon) on second guitar.
Said Dan: “It is an honor to stand among my brothers Trey, Steve and Scott in the one and only MORBID ANGEL.”
