Ape Vermin, the formidable 3-piece act hailing from the depths of Valdese, North Carolina, USA, is gearing up to conquer the cosmos with their latest sci-fi-infused album “Andromedas Colossus” on May 17, 2024, with a US tour to follow the release.
Phil Demmel (former Machine Head and current Vio-lence guitarist) has teamed up with drummer Jason Bittner (Overkill/Shadows Fall), bassist Jack Gibson (Exodus), guitarist Mike Orlando (ex Adrenaline Mob) and vocalist John Bush (Armoured Saint/former Anthrax) to form a currently unnamed superband which is currently working on a brand new debut album.
The new superband have apparently "written about 10 tunes" and will apparently sound heavier than early Van Halen and early Pantera.
In a recent interview with Marzi Motazeri (former Exhorder and Philip H. Anselmo & The Illegals guitarist), Demmel went in to detail about the new band. You can see the full interview below:
