Metal Anarchy

Nick Schendzielos (Job For A Cowboy, Cephalic Carnage) has joined Havok, as their new bassist. He is taking over for Mike Leon. who recently joined Soulfly.

Schendzielos issued the following statement:

“I’m incredibly excited to be working with Havok. Been friends with the dudes forever, always have a blast with ’em, and now I get to thrash with ’em! I have big shoes to fill…Mike is a really, really solid player, but I think my playing style will mix in really well and fans will dig it. The new music is by far the coolest Havok I’ve ever heard. Can’t wait to release it!”
