Sylosis Discuss Guitarists Wrist Injury & Announce Temporary Replacement!

British Metallers Sylosis, originally from Reading, Berkshire (UK), faced the arduous decision of having to cancel last nights "warm-up" show at The Studio at Webster Hall in New York City due to the severe wrist injury that guitarist Alex Bailey suffered on the morning of November 29th. Since the band understands that the show must go on, frontman Josh Middleton performed both guitar parts and somehow made it work. The band is scheduled to perform tonight in Huntington, New York as part of the As I Lay Dying "Decade Of Destruction" tour (complete list of tour dates below)!

Last night, we had the chance to sit down and talk to Middleton about this new challenge the band is facing. During the interview, Middleton announced that former Mutiny Within guitarist Brandon Jacobs will be joining Sylosis on this tour. We also discussed the musical vision of Sylosis and their latest album "Edge Of The Earth" (out now via Nuclear Blast Records). Without further due, here is the interview!
