Black Tide Replaces Guitarist Alex Nuñez

Black Tide bassist Zakk Sandler has issued an update explaining why guitarist Alex Nuñez left the band earlier this year.

"Alex had different ideas as to the direction that we are going and wasn't happy with the style," writes Sandler. "We made a mutual decision and felt that it would be best if we changed members now instead of years later and avoided stupid amounts of drama. He is still a close friend and we wish him all the luck in the world toward future endeavours.

"We have our very close friend Austin Diaz playing guitar for us; he is a great new addition to our group and a nice breath of fresh air to the dynamic that is Black Tide," he adds. "We hope you all love and welcome him as much as we do."

Black Tide Launches Animation Series

Black Tide has just launched their Warriors of Time Animation series. The six part series is explained best by the band themselves, "Our Hero, known as The Bastard, is a living embodiment of metal music. We pit him against a robotic legion whose influence spans all of time and space. The song speaks to the urge in everyone to rage and rock out against all outside expectations. It is a call to arms against a mundane existence, and the Bastard is always there to answer in force, slaughtering the robot conformist authority for the sake of youth, rebellion, and the undying spirit of true metal."

You can view the first video in this series below. More...
