Trevor Strnad from THE BLACK DAHLIA MURDER recently posted the following statement on his bands Facebook page in regards to illegal downloading in anticipation his bands NEW album 'Everblack' (available this June via Metal Blade Records): "HOW IT IS: We have almost 1,000,000 likes on here. Will we sell 1,000,000 copies of 'Everblack'? Fuck no! The reality is that 98% of you ‘fans’ are going to be content to steal the album and in turn we get nothing… a laughable fragment of the ‘likers’ will actually be cool and pick it up.
"It’s not about the money, the reality is that we get chump change for CD (and digital) sales BUT WE NEED TO SELL THEM TO EXIST! If there are no record sales the music industry will stomp us out like a bug and it’ll be completely over… the sales show them ‘how relevant’ we are.
"If you don’t buy the albums they’ll determine that there is no demand for TBDM, and there won’t be any more awesome concerts, tours, DVDs nor new music. Sure we understand you may really love our tunes, but if you haven’t paid for them, it’s a total loss to us… all the love in the world isn’t going to mean shit in the end. We need your support and every two years I am going to ask the same thing of you and make the same goddamn argument. "Think of it like a vote… If you’d like to see us continue our reign of terror over the Metal world, you’ll pick up a copy of 'Everblack'. It’s as simple as that.

"Well kids, enough with all the secrets… it's about time we in The Black Dahlia Murder clue you fans in and tell all about our recent hush hush bassist situation… I'm sure some of you who have seen us on tour in the last months have grown curious as to who this mystery man bass extraordinaire could be and have wondered what long time bassist Ryan "Bart" Williams could be up to. After months of tip-toeing around it, we've decided to break the silence and let you guys know the truth.
"After six long, grueling years of relentless back-to-back touring, Ryan Williams has decided to step down from his full time position in The Black Dahlia Murder to pursue a career in recording (please stop and check out his NEW gig here). Although the remaining members are indeed saddened by his decision, the good news is that Ryan will still be involved in the band in many ways, from continued contributions of songwriting (Ryan wrote those sick Robocop riffs in "Malenchantments Of The Necrosphere", amongst several others, mind you) to overseeing and co-producing future BDM recordings. As you will clearly see by the statements of all parties involved, the change is completely amicable, and the love and brotherhood we've shared with Ryan over the years remains untarnished. We wish him the absolute best of luck with Augmented Audio and all of his future endeavors.
"Max Lavelle was literally the first idea of a replacement for Ryan, we had toured alongside him when he was playing with Despised Icon a few different times and had the chance to become pretty good friends with the guy as well as be allowed the chance to see him perform live many times. Max is a diehard Metal head, a great bassist, a monstrous live presence and a welcome shot of energy into the bloodstream of this band. His enthusiasm for forwarding the whole is inspiring and exactly what we need at this point in time." - Trevor Strnad

Today, the Black Dahlia Murder is one of the hardest working and most crushing bands in the Heavy Music realm! After the release of their fifth studio album "Ritual" via Metal Blade Records, the band was invited to headline the 2011 Summer Slaughter Tour for the second time in history. The band is touring North America in support of "Ritual" and are also scheduled to perform with Cannibal Corpse and Suicide Silence in South America this fall. And according to singer Trevor Strnad the band has some real exciting things lined up in their Metallic agenda, that haven't been announced yet!
We had the chance to interview lead screamer Trevor Strnad while at the bands performance at the Summer Slaughter Tour in New York city, and he made it clear that the band is at a great situation in their careers after 10 years of hard work and determination. He also discusses how he trained his voice, and how the bands philosophy is still intact thanks to all the members being in synch! Without further due, here is the interview!
