Immediate Press Release: RAVEN LORD add JOE STUMP to their ranks
Joe Stump (Holy Hell, Reign of Terror) joins forces with Csaba Zvekan (Killing
Machine, Sardonyx, Emergency) – Vocals, George Karafotis (Vermillion
Days, Operation X) – Guitar, Jamie Mallender (Tony Martin Band, ex-Black Sabbath) –
Bass Guitar and Lawrence “Larry” Paterson(Blaze Baley,
Stuka Squadron) – Drums, to complete the band’s line-up in royalty of rock style.
Jamie Mallender had the following to say on the matter, “I can barely contain my
excitement. I am a huge fan of Joe’s, so when Csaba asked me what
I thought about asking him to play for us I jumped at the chance to work with the
finest exponent of the rock guitar virtuoso playing style. Joe Stump
has quite a considerable catalogue of excellent solo releases under his belt – both
instrumental and with Reign Of Terror, Holy Hell and a long list
of guest appearances. He is also a renowned guitar teacher with his own series of
instructional releases available on “Shred Academy” and brings
to the band a wealth of touring experience. RAVEN LORD sounded like an exciting
prospect before, but now with Joe on board things are shaping up to be
a true force to be reckoned with and one can only await the release of their debut
album with bated breath and sweaty little Heavy Metal hands.”
RAVEN LORD’s singer and founder Csaba Zvekan had to say “Knowing that Joe Stump is
in the band means a great deal to me as now RAVEN LORD has a
strong foundation for the future. As well as for touring and for future recordings.
Joe’s playing is stunning and with him in our ranks we step up
to another level. They don’t call him the “Shredlord” for nothing. ”
Joe Stump in his own words on joining Raven Lord: “I was recently approached by
Csaba Zvekan and the RAVEN LORD guys about the possibility of
joining the ranks. Needless to say after hearing Csaba’s voice as well as the the
sound of the band I was sold. I’ve been at this a very long time
and I know quality metal when I hear it. Looking forward to working with the fellas
and of course bringing some serious over the top shredding and
fierce metal riffage to RAVEN LORD.”
Raven Lord are priming themselves to deliver metallic carnage across the globe.
The line up shapes up as follows :
Csaba Zvekan (Killing Machine, Sardonyx, Emergency) – Vocals
Joe Stump (Holy Hell, Reign of Terror) – Lead Guitars
