THANATOS Records SACRIFICE Cover For Split Vinyl EP With ASPHYX

November 8, 2010

Dutch death/thrash metal pioneers THANATOS have finished recording a cover version of the song "Reanimation" by Canadian thrash metal legends SACRIFICE. The THANATOS track will be released on a seven-inch vinyl split EP with Dutch doom/deathsters ASPHYX (who will be featured with a cover version of the MAJESTY classic "Bestial Vomit"). And early 2011 release via Cyclone Empire Records is expected.

THANATOS last year parted ways with drummer Yuri Rinkel (MELECHESH) and replaced him with Marco de Groot (HOUWITSER, ALTAR, BLIND JUSTICE, ORDO DRACONIS).

THANATOS' fifth full-length album, "Justified Genocide", was released in March 2009 through Deity Down Records. The CD was recorded at Excess studios in Rotterdam, Netherlands and was mixed by Dan Swanö (NIGHTINGALE, EDGE OF SANITY and BLOODBATH fame) at Unisound in Sweden.

In 2009 THANATOS celebrated its 25th anniversary since the band first emerged from the Netherworlds.

Currently the quartet is comprised of founding member Stephan Gebédi (guitar/vocals; also guitarist in HAIL OF BULLETS),Paul Baayens (guitar; HAIL OF BULLETS, ASPHYX),Marco de Bruin (bass) and Marco de Groot.
