Lineup changes are nothing new for Texas thrashers Warbeast. The Housecore Records band has once again added some new weaponry to their arsenal. This time they chose to bring in some young bloods to re-animate some fresh new life into their classic old-school style. Drew Shoup (20-years-old) is now the band's second guitarist while Lyric Ferchaud (17-years-old) will take over bass duties.

Warbeast drummer Joey Gonzalez elaborates more on these recent additions: "2 young guns with a fire-in-their-bellies and hungry for thrash. It's humbling and refreshing for me to work with two dedicated individuals ready and eager to hit the road and continue the tradition of thrash."

Drew Shoup was always a big fan and supporter of Warbeast. Originally he was born in Dallas, but he moved to Colorado at the age of 10. He recently moved back to D/FW pursue this opportunity to join one of his favorite bands. Drew shows his enthusiasm when asked what this chance means to him: "Warbeast is one of the tightest, most energetic bands I've ever heard. I am very excited to be a part of what they do."

Lyric started doing gigs in clubs at the young age of 15 with his band Psyclops. He's also performed with his dad's bands. He proclaims: "I've watched the band become who they are and to be a part of that is pure excellence. I feel that joining this band will keep The Beast alive as it should always be, and lead to even more powerful thrash Metal than before."
