MORBID ANGEL Reunite With Frontman, Begin Recording New CD

May 20, 2003

MORBID ANGEL have reunited with bassist/vocalist Steve Tucker and have been holed up at D.O.W. (Diet Of Worms) studios (web site) in Seffner, Florida since last Friday (May 16) recording their new CD for a September release through Earache Records. The follow-up to 2000's "Gateways To Annihilation", which is being co-produced by the band with longtime front-of-house mixing engineer Juan "Punchy Gonzalez, will be Tucker's third with the group, who were recently rumored (but never confirmed) to be in talks with previous vocalist David Vincent about returning to the fold.

Tucker originally left the band in early April 2001 due to "personal and family problems" and was temporarily replaced by HATE ETERNAL bassist/vocalist Jared Anderson. Steve eventually announced plans to reform his early death metal band CEREMONY with DISASTRONAUT guitarist Greg Reed and former EMPEROR drummer Trym, but those plans never fully materialized for reasons that are not entirely clear at this time.
