In the early months of 2010 Pete Slate (EQUINOX / KAULDRON / ex-ACHERON / ex-INCUBUS), together with former EQUINOX drummer Stephen Spillers formed a new band called DRUID LORD (further members will be announced soon). Musically you can expect some heavy Doom / old school Death Metal in the CELTIC FROST, AUTOPSY, WINTER direction, with lyrical inspirations from cult Horror movies and occult themes as well as "anything creepy or eerie". Horror and Gore artist Putrid (who had already worked for HOODED MENACE, FRIGHTMARE, REVOLTING, FONDLE CORPSE and NUNSLAUGHTER) will be doing the artwork for the band’s 4 song debut EP which is tentatively entitled "Hymns For The Wicked". More info as well as a studio rehearsal track (without bass and vocals yet) you’ll find at www.myspace.com/druidlordz
