| Prey
is Born |
Metal's Dark Side reports: PREY is born. July
2005 marked the formation of this new band of metal madmen. After leaving
all of their former bands, Matt Wicklund (ex Himsa), Martin Powell (ex
Cradle of Filth and My Dying Bride), and James McIlroy (ex Cradle of Filth)
contacted eachother and found that they shared a common musical vision.
(Matt, Martin and James had become friends after spending several weeks
touring together on the MTV2 Headbanger's Ball Tour last winter.) This
vision manifested itself early September in their London and Scheffield
writing sessions. Several melodic, thrashy, groove driven, thick sounding
pieces of pure metal have been written and everyone is ecstatic. The rest
of the band line up will be announced in late December/early January!!
Stay tuned for more information as things develop.[Thanks to Jasmin from
Metal's Dark Side for the info, see the full story link for the band's
myspace page ]- Click
