Amen are set for a long awaited return to the UK this August.
Led by Casey Chaos, the LA punks are working on a brand new album for release later this year. In addition, the band have announced the addition of former Slayer drummer Dave Lombardo to their ranks.
Lombardo said:
"I am very proud to have been asked to be part of this amazing production with Casey Chaos and Ross Robinson. My career in thrash was created from my love of the punk genre. There is an excitement in this particular style of music that's vital for me. It's aggressive, honest and needed. I'm looking forward to performing with Amen before returning to Europe with Philm in September."
Chaos added:
"It's great to be working again with Dave, this time in Amen. He brought so much power, aggression and passion to the music on the new record, in a way only he could only deliver. Without question this is THE most important album I’ve ever made. I'm looking forward to unleashing it live and destroying ourselves for your pleasure!"
The refreshed line up - completed by John Fahnestock on bass, Duke Decter and John King on guitars - will also hit the main stage at Northampton's Alt-Fest on August 16.
