Temple Of Brutality - W.A.S.P. Drummer Joins
The new band featuring former MEGADETH/current F5 bassist David Ellefson, guitarist Peter Scheithauer (BELLADONNA, KILLING MACHINE) and vocalist Todd Barnes (13-A) has changed its name to TEMPLE OF BRUTALITY from the previously announced ENEMY OF GOD. The group, who have acquired the services of drummer Stet Howland (W.A.S.P.) following the departure of Jon Dette (ex-SLAYER, TESTAMENT), are said to follow a very aggressive musical direction in the vein of SLAYER and PANTERA. The band are currently seeking a label deal for their debut album, tentatively due before the end of the year.

W.A.S.P. New Album!
"The Neon God: Part One - The Rise" is scheduled for release on April 6 through Sanctuary/Metal-Is Records.
Described as "a conceptual rock opera that explores the tragedy and consequences of one boy's search for acceptance and purpose in his existence," "The Neon God: Part One - The Rise" reportedly "delves into such deeply emotional (and personal) inquiries, such as where does one fit into the great cosmic enigma? How does love fit into the equation? Should I use my gifts and talents for good or for evil?" according to a press release. "These are the primary thoughts all people have regarding their existence at one time or another. When addressed by a youth and coupled with an extreme dose of fear, a lethal combination develops."
"Part One - The Rise" tells the story of an abused and orphaned boy who finds that he has the ability to read and manipulate people. By utilizing his gifts, he is able to build a following whose devotion and allegiance create a loyalty so intense that he is poised to become a dark Messiah for the 21st Century.
