Another reunited 80s thrash metal band is ...

EXUMER!

Members of 80s German thrash metal cult EXUMER began negotiating a full
fledged reunion for 2009. The projected reunion includes a new album,
re-releases of the band's two albums from the 1980s and a substantial
tour.

EXUMER vocalist Mem V. Stein of NYC thrashers Sun Descends comments:

"This
reunion won't be like the one-off show we played at the Wacken Open
Air, in 2001. This time we will deliver the entire package and release
a new, third EXUMER album. It's been close to 22 years since the second
EXUMER release in 1987 and it seems that the band is still relevant,
especially when you consider the new generation of thrash metal bands
that quote EXUMER as a major influence of theirs. I will keep SD alive
and I'm not abandoning the project but most of 2009 will be dedicated
to a new EXUMER album and it's promotion. We also have Paul Arakaki
(guitars/bass) in the band who replaced me on the second EXUMER album
and now lives in Hawaii. I frequently get emails from fans asking for a
EXUMER reunion and I feel that the time is right to finally go ahead
and make it a reality. We have never played live in North America and I
believe that we owe it to the fans here in the States to see the band
at least once with full-on live production"

EXUMER has not yet
decided with which record label to work with for the releases, but
plans to enter the studio to record their new cd in late 2008/early
2009.

Sun Descends' new album titled "The Entropy Formula", will
be released on Khaosmaster Productions in April and on Twilight
Distribution in Fall 2008.

Thrash seems to be seeing a revival and all these old bands are coming out of the woodwork. Very cool.

I know,and I Love it.Its starting to feel like 1989 all over again

I like it as it's allowing me to get back into it (or to get into tons of bands I never would have otherwise). It's like I get to do a "do-over".

Man, Exumer is one of the last bands I would have slotted for a return! Still cool, though, so don't think I'm complaining! :kickbutt:

also HEADHUNTER too with a new album due on AFM like PARADOX!

I'd like to see EXUMER live playing old classics. I'm not much fan of hearing a reunion album though. So far no reunited album has fully lived up to my expectations.

whoa, never heard of this band guess it's a good as time as any to get into 'em

That is DAMN cool!!! Really looking fwd to this reunion!!!

Now Morbid Saint and Darkness should reunite!

I hope this will help spawn some more reawakenings for other old school thrash bands. I like Exhumer and hope this works well for them, hope I can catch a show when they get up and running.

Very cool.

I would like to see Realm, Toxik and Xentrix get back together.

I hope this Thrash revival encourages Deliverance and Mortification to get back/stay in the Thrash mode as I've liked their last.

I knew it was going to be Exumer when I clicked on this thread.

Excited about this too! Thrash lives on!

Yeah dude! Thrash Metal counter attack! All the Emo-wannabecool smurf poo will disapear! If only Metallica could be great again...
