Evile and Gama Bomb go to battle

English thrashers EVILE and Irish label-mates and fellow thrashers GAMA BOMB featured in the notorious BBC Radio 1 Rock Show presented by DANIEL P. CARTER on Tuesday.

The two bands were pitted against each other in a contest of wits called "Hammer's Hammer" (of no relation to Timmy Mallet's "Mallet's Mallet") recorded at the recent Hammerfest festival in Prestatyn, Wales. It was a closely fought contest between PHILLY BYRNE (GAMA BOMB) and OL DRAKE (EVILE) which actually took place in a children's playground ball pit.

EVILE recently entered the studio to record the yet-to-be-titled follow-up album to their 2007 debut, ENTER THE GRAVE. The new album is being produced by RUSS RUSSELL (NAPALM DEATH, DIMMU BORGIR) and is set for release later this year.
