Verden&#8217;s usual four string player Rob Hankins will be on Bass. This will be the first album featuring the current line-up and it promises to be something pretty special, with Thyers raw style of playing and Blakouts powerhouse drumming, the band feel it will be something new for the fans to get their teeth into.
