TEMPLE OF BRUTALITY Guitarist Says Touring Bassist Fits Band's Mentality Perfectly

March 5, 2007

The touring bass player for TEMPLE OF BRUTALITY's U.S. tour will be METAL CHURCH bassist Steve Unger. The band's regular bassist, David Ellefson (ex-MEGADETH),will not be able to participate due to family commitments.

"Steve is a great friend of Stet's [Howland, TEMPLE OF BRUTALITY/ex-W.A.S.P. drummer]," said guitarist Peter Scheithauer. "When the situation with Dave came up, we asked Steve because if anyone could pull off the tour with such a short notice, it would be him. He's a very easy-going guy, a true metalhead and road warrior that fits the band's mentality perfectly."

TEMPLE OF BRUTALITY's debut album, "Lethal Agenda", was released on February 27 on Demolition Records.

"We just found out the East Coast leg will be even longer and we have more shows being booked after Easter for another run," said Scheithauer. "We're stoked to get out on the road and get our record into the stores."
