Since guitarist Bjørn Bihlet left the band in January, we have been busy arranging several try-outs in February and March searching for the right guy to take Bjørn’s place.
We’ve jammed with a bunch of really talented guitarists, but one guy stood out from the crowd by far, and we are proud to announce that we have now officially welcomed this guy into the Boil family. His name is Mads Vigeholm, and you might know him already, as he was one of the founding members of (and long-time guitarist in) the skilled and technical metal band Scamp.
Mads is an experienced, kickass guitarist with a killer right hand – and to make it even more interesting his weapon of choice is an 8-string axe, so it will be really interesting to see what this will bring to our music, when we start writing new material again. We are sure it will add yet another exotic spice to the boiling pot.
Actually, Mads already had his baptism of fire, as he played with us in Copenhagen April 1 at the showcase concert arranged by our record label Mighty Music/Target, but we hope you’ll come give Mads an official warm fan-welcome at one of our next concerts (May 1st in Horsens at Kulisselageret and May 15th in Vordingborg at Stars).
On another note, we have already received the first review of A New Decay, even though the album doesn’t hit the shops until April 26 in Denmark (and September in the rest of Europe). Metal website www.powerofmetal.dk has awarded the album with an amazing 94/100 rating! Awesome! Read the entire review at powerofmetal.dk.

Det lyder sgu da spændende drenge! Velkommen til Mads! Og btw, fed plade Mads (“Mirror…”), Kudos to you og resten af Scamp!
Synes det er pænt ærgeligt at vi skulle spille i Viborg da I spillede i KBH, vil fandme godt se jer igen. Kunne heller ikke komme sidst. I må da lige planlægge det med mig i fremtiden, hahah!
Cheers!! BOIL FTW!!
