Evile are a thrash metal outfit from Huddersfield, West Yorkshire in the UK.

Founded by old school friends Matt Drake and Ben Carter, and after playing with different guitarists and bass players for a year or so, Matt’s brother Ol was asked to join as lead guitarist. After a short search for a bass player The 3 were contacted by Mike Alexander via an ad in a local guitar shop, and the band was formed.
In October of 2006 Evile signed to the legendary Earache Records, label home of such Metal legends as Morbid Angel, Napalm Death, Municipal Waste and Carcass.

The second chapter in Evile's history comes by the name "Infected Nations", produced by Russ Russell (Napalm Death, Dimmu Borgir), original artwork by Michael Whelan (Sepultura, Obituary, Stephen King) and released via Earache Records worldwide. "Infected Nations" is Evile's modern take on Thrash Metal, and finds the band coming into a sound of their own. "Infected Nations” went into the top 100 album chart in the UK after its release on Sept 21 2009. Evile played a release show on 25th Sept 09 at Islington's Bar Academy and then embarked on a 2 month long European tour supporting Amon Amarth with Entombed. After playing 2 headline shows in Germany they reached Scandinavia and disaster struck when Mike Alexander bassist of Evile collapsed in Lulea Sweden and tragically died on his way to hospital. He was 32 years old.

On Wednesday, December 16, 2009, Joel Graham of Rise to Addictions was announced as the new bassist for EVILE following the tragic and untimely death of Mike Alexander.
EVILE are set to kick off a headlining European tour in January. The
"Infecting Nations" tour will start with a run of UK shows, before the band
heads off to mainland Europe. Joining EVILE on the tour will be American
thrashers WARBRINGER and Israel's THE FADING. Evile will tour the USA as part of the "Hordes Of Chaos Part II" tour with KREATOR & VOIVOD in March 2010 and “Killfest 2010” with Overkill being the headliners in April 2010.

    Hey dudes. Hows "Mad Bess?" haha. Cant Wait till "Infected Nation" Comes out! The new track fucking rules and im wondering how much better could it get. Anyways. It would be totally awesome if you guys came to THE ODYSSEY ARENA BELFAST , NORTHEN IRELAND. Im fourteen and i cant go to the one i think in october cause its over 18's only which in my opinion sucks Mad Bess's cock. Good luck on your tour.
