Invasion Will "Play The Devil's Piano"
Indiana war-themed thrash/death metal act Invasion released a new video clip for the song "Play the Devil's Piano." The song appears on the latest album "Destroyer of Mankind," which is available now via Abyss Records.
Bassist/vocalist Peter Clemens explains theme of "Play the Devil's Piano" as follows: "The acrid smells, the blistering heat of combat and the deadly assault and rapid fire of the Mauser MG42 German Machine Gun (affectionately known as the Devil's Piano). The MG 42 (shortened from Maschinengewehr 42, or "machine gun 42") is a 7.92x57 mm general purpose machine gun designed by Germany and used extensively by the Wehrmacht and Waffen-SS during World War 2. Viewed & cherished by the Germans, this weapon's most notable features was its exceptionally high rate of fire of about 1,200 rounds per minute. Hence, when in heavy combat often it was time to Play The Devil's Piano!"

We lost original drummer Dave 'Ross' Cady in early 2014 and had auditions for the vacancy, which led to more delays, but in the end we acquired Dan Klein (Fin/Nocturne) on drums and lead guitarist John Hehman (Year Of Desolation). Plus we teamed up with Sea Of Tranquility/Screamiking guitarist Ralphael Hernandez who played on the Berserk Artillery Barrage CD from 2001, so things have been moving forward."

Invasion Unveils "Destroyer Of Mankind"
Six years since the release of last album "Orchestrated Kill Maneuver," Indiana’s war-themed death machine Invasion will release "Destroyer of Mankind" via Abyss Records on February 17th.
This brutal and uncompromising release demonstrates Invasion's vicious blitzkrieg and wages battle with new members Dan Klein (drums) and John Hehman (lead guitar), while main songwriter/lyricist/guitarist Peter Clemens continues his obsession with World War II.
Peter had this to say about the band’s activities leading up to the recording of the album: "It's been almost 6 years since ‘Orchestrated Kill Maneuver’ was released on Rotting Corpse Records, and it's been somewhat of a frustrating endeavor. We lost original drummer Dave ‘Ross’ Cady in early 2014 and had auditions for the vacancy, which led to more delays, but in the end we acquired Dan Klein on drums and lead guitarist John Hehman. Plus we teamed up with Sea Of Tranquillity/Screamking guitarist Ralphael Hernandez who played on the ‘Berserk Artillery Barrage’ CD from 2001, so things have been moving forward."
Asked about his switch from guitar to bass, Peter stated "I'm an average guitar player so I had no problem handing guitar duties to John Hehman. He's an excellent musician with a good ear, and teaming up with him to work on the new Invasion recordings was an obvious choice. John pretty much helped lay the groundwork for the recordings in his studio (Broken Toe/Bang Recordings) and things turned out great." More...
