Swedish death metal act, EVOCATION, have announced Janne Jaloma as their new drummer. Guitarist Marko Palmen comments: “We are very proud to welcome Janne Jaloma as the new drummer of Evocation. Janne has previously made himself a name in the Gothenburg and UK scenes as a dedicated and hardworking drummer for bands such as Despite, Bloodshot Dawn and Deals Death. His technical skills as well as his groove are pure magic, and the way he plays makes him a perfect fit for Evocation. Janne will make his live debut with Evocation on the release ritual scheduled for the 8th of April in Boras.”
Fans can watch Janne Jaloma’s drum play-through for “Imperium Fall” from Evocation’s latest album, The Shadow Archetype, HERE.
Silence has, in the past, worked wonders for death metal legends Evocation. See, from 1993 to 2005, a healthy 12 years all told, the Swedes were dormant, non-existent, a pivotal – according to famed producer Tomas Skogsberg – act with a killer sound lost to the annals of time. When Evocation resurrected in 2005, they emerged stronger, deadlier, and better than before, with nearly the entire Promo 1992 lineup intact. The group’s debut album, Tales from the Tomb, replete with Boss HM-2s brutally blazing and spooky Dan Seagrave cover art, spent most of 2007 at the forefront of the New Wave of Old-School Death Metal movement. Really, if any band fit the resurgence of throwback death metal it was Evocation. They were relatively new, but were also part of and privy to the genre’s halcyon years.
