Death Thrash Metallers HELLISH OUTCAST announced today that KEEP OF KALESSIN front man Thebon will replace the band’s former vocalist Sjalg Otto, who is leaving the band to pursue other interests. Thebon, whose new role will in no way affect his work with KEEP OF KALESSIN, is already rehearsing with HELLISH OUTCAST, and laying down the vocals for the band’s upcoming album. His first live appearance with the band will be at this year’s Hole in the Sky Festival in Bergen, Norway, where HELLISH OUTCAST is due to appear at the Hits for Kidz event on Saturday 28 August.Formed in 2001 in Bergen by guitarist Martin Legreid, bassist Mads Mowinckel (BREED) and drummer Mads Lilletvedt (BYFROST), HELLISH OUTCAST quickly gained a reputation as one of the most extreme live bands in Bergen’s underground scene. The band’s first release was the controversial EP “Raping – Killing – Murder”, and the new album, which is titled “Your God Will Bleed”, will follow in the lyrical footsteps laid down in the EP, with its exploration of the violence and brutality in the world today, but, according to the band, the music promises to be even more aggressive.
