Los Angeles based death metal outfit The Faceless have announced the addition of a new bassist, with former Animosity member Evan Brewer stepping in to fill the vacant spot.
Brewer takes over from former bassist and founding member Brandon Griffin who left the group last year.
As The Faceless recently wrote on their Facebook page:
"The sickest bass player in the game, Evan Brewer (Animosity/Reflux) has officially joined The Faceless. See his videos on YouTube if you havent already. Rumor (sic) has it his solo album will be coming out on Sumerian Records too."
Brewer most notably performed bass on regarded San Francisco deathcore band, Animosity's last studio album, 2007's 'Animal' before the group subsequently broke up in late 2009.
The Faceless have spent much of 2011 preparing new material, with guitarist Michael Keene stating the following in a Sumerian Records press release earlier in the year:
“This next record is going to be the most musical and progressive record we’ve made. Since recording Planetary Duality, the goals of THE FACELESS have changed a bit. You can still expect a fast, technical and blistering record, but I personally am less focused on a musical aesthetic and more on musicality and making an expressive, unique, moody and expansive record. Speed picking, flying double bass and skin melting guitar solos are certainly still in order."
