AVULSED Announces New Drummer

April 23, 2012

Spanish death metallers AVULSED have announced the addition of drummer Oscar "Osckar" Bravo to the group's ranks.

Commented the band: "After testing three excellent drummers, the decision was taken in favour of Osckar, [who] proved to be not only the best drummer, but also, and very important as well, [that he possessed] great qualities as a person as well as the necessary dedication for the band, which will undoubtly inject fresh and renewed hopes.

"Osckar is one of the best drummers on the Spanish metal scene [who] also plays in the legendary heavy metal band SOBREDOSIS and also on NIGHTFEAR as well as recently departed from melodic death metallers ATMOSPHERE GREY.

"All members in AVULSED feels so happy and proud of having found Osckar to fill the drum spot and he just came to stay as another full-time member, making the band stronger than ever before and can't wait to present him live as well as recording the new album towards the end of the year.

"You can actually see a short video (see below) taken during our first official rehearsal with Osckar where he already played the first five songs he learned for the test. You can see he's perfect for the band!"

AVULSED parted ways with drummer Ricardo "Riky" Mena in March "due to differences on how to deal with different internal issues within the band."

AVULSED last year scrapped plans to release a 20th-anniversary CD, "Fleshcube", due to "several problems regarding the recording sessions that delayed the whole project, to the point that it was going to be impossible to release it [in 2011], so… who knows, perhaps for our 25th anniversary!!" However, this cancellation was taken in a positive way, because this helped the band concentrate on the songwriting of their upcoming album, "Ritual Zombi", to be recorded later this year.
