FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
BraveWords Spotlights DIABOLIS Joining David Ellefson’s Basstory Event with New Lineup Featuring Former Kill Ritual Bassist
Connecticut’s rising metal force DIABOLIS is set to ignite the stage on Thursday, August 7, at the legendary David Ellefson Basstory: Performance, Stories & Legacy event at The Cellar on Treadwell. Sharing the bill with bass icon David Ellefson (ex-Megadeth), thrash legend Chris Poland (ex-Megadeth), Dead By Wednesday members, and guest vocalists Andre Vanchot and Ray Sylvestre, this promises to be an unforgettable night of metal and storytelling.
Fresh off solidifying their lineup with bassist David “D” Alusik — formerly of Kill Ritual, URN, and more — DIABOLIS is ready to unleash their crushing energy and fierce sound. Formed by seasoned veterans John J-SINZ LeVasseur (drums) and Gary Joseph (guitar), along with frontman Tim “Voxx” Hayden, the band has quickly made waves with their debut EP Watching the World Burn . Now, with D’s powerful presence and experience, DIABOLIS is sharpening their edge for a live performance fans won’t forget.
This intimate event is more than just a show — it’s a celebration of bass legacy, metal history, and raw performance energy.
