Wednesday 13 has also announced an all-new band line up which reunites him with fellow Murderdoll Eric Griffin. Wednesday 13 comments: "I will be teaming up with my old Murderdoll band mate Eric Griffin, long time friend Racci Shay (Genitorturers) and new pal Brix (Skrape/Dope) for the next chapter of rock n' roll debauchery in my life. I can't predict what this year will be like with this band but guarantee it will be nothing short of complete chaos...sorry in advance, and we'll see you all in hell!!!"
