SUICIDE SILENCE WANT YOU TO WAKE THE F*CK UP

MetalSucks Maniac Gaston Ayala sent us the below clip of Suicide Silence performing a new song, “Wake Up,” this past Friday night (March 27) at the Marquee in Phoenix, where they were opening up for Carcass. It’s obviously not a high quality clip, but as far as I can tell, it pretty much sounds like Suicide Silence – depending on your viewpoint, that might be a good thing or a bad thing.

The song comes off the band’s new album, No Time to Bleed, which will be out later this year on Century. You can check out another lo-fi clip of a new song, “Vile Creation,” here.

Meanwhile, someone told me recently that bassist Mike Bodkins is apparently out of the band. I never saw a statement, but, indeed, the very nice Mr. Bodkins is now missing from the band’s MySpace page, and Wikipedia lists some dude named Dan Kenny as the band’s current bassist. I have no idea what the story is there, but if you’re feeling nostalgic about Bodkins, you can read the interview we conducted with him last summer right here.
