Fifth Angel - Back In Business With New Singer

Cult US Power metal act Fifth Angel are officially back in business. After a twenty year break, the band played together for the first time in April last year at the Keep It True XIII Festival. But now the band is back in full force. Here's the official press statement:

"The fans have spoken, and after many years away, their wish is granted! Fifth Angel has returned!

Fifth Angel performed live for the first time last April at the Keep It True Festival in Lauda-Konigshoffen, Germany (with guest vocalist Peter Orullian (Heir Apparent)), and the wheels were set into motion for a full-throttle re-launch of a band long regarded as legendary in the heavy metal history books.

Ed Archer (guitar), Kendall Bechtel (lead guitar) and John Macko (bass), the three original members of the Time Will Tell era of the band, along with new drummer Jeffrey McCormack returned from their critically acclaimed performance to begin the search for their new lead vocalist...

Today, Fifth Angel is proud to announce that their new lead vocalist is an Arizona based powerhouse by the name of David Fefolt!

Metal fans worldwide will recognize this incredible voice from such bands as Valhalla, Hawk, Alex Masi, Forgotten Realm and Angels of Babylon, and now he brings his energy and outstanding vocal talents to Fifth Angel for a new chapter in metal history!

The band is currently demo-ing material for the new cd that will be released later in 2011!

Fifth Angel would like to sincerely and enthusiastically thank each and every one of their fans for the tremendous support throughout the years, and for their continued support! Without you, this would never have happened!"

Fifth Angel - New Drummer Announced

Official press release

Fifth Angel is pleased to announce that Jeffrey McCormack will be handling drum duties for the band. A sought-after studio/touring musician from the Seattle area, McCormack joins Ed Archer (guitars), John Macko (bass), Kendall Bechtel (guitars) and Tim Branom (lead vocals) to complete Fifth Angel's lineup.

Archer said: "Jeff's studio and touring experience is a positive addition to Fifth Angel. It's a tall order learning the drum parts our former bandmate Ken Mary put down, and Jeff has approached the challenge head-on. We're all on the same page and can't wait to see what the future holds for Fifth Angel."

Jeff was one of many musicians that called the famous Music Bank studio in Seattle home in the late 1980s. McCormack cut his teeth with many of Seattle's elite musicians, including the late Layne Staley and Jerry Cantrell from Alice in Chains, John DeVol (Culprit) and even Fifth Angel's current vocalist Tim Branom, just to name a few.

Since 1992, Jeff has been featured on over 60 CDs worldwide. He's performed all across the United States, Canada, Europe and parts of Russia. In addition, fans may remember McCormack from his touring stint with classic metal legends Heir Apparent, as the band played sold out shows in Germany and Greece in recent years. But Fifth Angel was always a part of Jeff's musical style and aspirations.

McCormack explained: "Everyone has a soundtrack to their lives and Fifth Angel was a huge part of mine. The music on the albums Fifth Angel and Time Will Tell was a huge influence on me as a drummer and playing for Fifth Angel is honestly a dream come true. I can't wait to rock these songs live."

Fifth Angel will make its live debut at the Keep it True XIII festival in Lauda-Königshofen, Germany, on April 23 and 24, 2010. For more information on Fifth Angel, visit www.fifthangel.com.
