PHASE REVERSE – release “Phase IV Genocide” album via ROAR! Rock Of Angels Records today December 11, 2020 #phasereverse

“Phase Reverse: The Return” could have been the title of this new long-awaited album but Phase Reverse decided to go with “Phase IV Genocide”. Why Genocide? Because it best describes how the world we live in, was created. The band stood silent for almost 4 years but during these harsh times, they felt it was the time for them to stand up and declare their concerns. “Phase IV Genocide” marks the return of Tas Ioannidis, the band’s first singer and bass player. It felt like the right time for him to return to the mothership and it was a great pleasure to welcome him back. With big enthusiasm and new roles, they have now grown in numbers (5 in total) with two guitar players as Kostas Kotsikas switched from his bass duties to becoming the second guitar player and Tas taking over the quakes and sing along with Takis wherever needed. All five members were set to deliver a new sound for the band and the outcome is revealed in “Phase IV Genocide”. Meaningful, intelligent and deeply emotional, “Phase IV Genocide” is not just another album of the genre; it’s an intense storytelling journey through the arduous times we are all living in, dressed in Phase Reverse’s unique Southern Heavy Metal music.
