[tamponsqueezer]

In a statement sent today to the Earache offices, Glen Benton gives an update on his whereabouts and future plans for DEICIDE: "It is with great pleasure to announce that I will be performing with DEICIDE once again after a 14 month absence and that my legal issues that have prevented myself from performing have been resolved. Without going into great detail about my personal life, because I am a person who prefers his privacy. I wish to extend my apologies to the promoters and to my business associates who may have been inconvenienced. I look forward to rejoining Steve, Jack and Ralph on stage, and I would like to announce that we are presently booking exclusive dates or the United States and Europe for 2008 in support of "Till Death Do Us Part". I will be performing exclusive dates in major markets and festival dates only as to accommodate my parental responsibilities. The U.S. tour package will consist of ADRIFT from Tampa, Florida and Malevolent Creation in support of DEICIDE, with Malevolent supporting us on the Europe run as well. I would like to extend a thank you to my family, friends, and fans, and to everyone involved on the front lines and behind the scenes that supported me through this process."


Great news!!!!!!!! me thinks.

Yeah. If it's true.

Joining RALPH on stage? I thought he'd left the band. I know he's on the new album but that was contractual. I can't see him playing live with Deicide. If there's a tour Glen will pull out at some stage anyway, but I couldn't care less about it.
What I'm interested in is the fact he mentions Ralph. If they're all pals again Ralph might play on the NEXT album which would be awesome.

I'm surprised they still want to work with Jack after what Steve said about him not writing. Jack sounds like a lazy bastard. He certainly didn't hang around here for long.

Jack just needs to get mad and write some evil brutal stuff.

I'm glad to hear that but who knows how long the touring will actually go on.
