Evile confirmed to appear at Download Festival

Evile band have been announced that they confirmed to perform at the UK's Download Festival, as well as Masters of Rock in the Czech Republic.

The event in this year which takes place at the Victoria Park in London on run 23rd and 24th July.

Bassist Joel Graham comments: "It's awesome to be added to the High Voltage festival - for the name Evile to be on the same poster that contains the such legendary names of Judas Priest, Jethro Tull, Dream Theater and Queensryche is an absolute mind f**k... It's amazing. More than a couple of us in Evile are prog fans so I'm sure we'll be hanging around the Prog Stage a lot. For me personally, I became a huge Jethro Tull fan after doing a deal with my father; he agreed to take me to see Anthrax when I was about 11, if in return he could take me to see Tull around the same time, so he got me hooked. Ol (Drake) also has a very uncanny likeness to a young Ian Anderson, so I'm hoping they bump into each other over the weekend."

They have also booked a UK show with Taiwanese metallers Chthonic, which takes place at the Underworld in London on 18th March next Friday.
