Exhumed Reunite With Former Member For Summer Slaughter Tour

07/23/2012
. If you catch Exhumed on the Summer Slaughter Tour, you may notice a familiar face from the past on stage. The band have reunited with former bassist Bud Burke for the trek, which kicked off last week. Burke will taking over lead guitar duties for Wes Caley, who the band recently parted ways with.

Frontman Matt Harvey had this to say, "We're psyched to welcome Bud Burke back in the ranks of Exhumed, this time on lead guitar. For those of you who knew him as our bassist (from '99 - '04), you will be pleasantly surprised when he melts your face onstage with the band for the Summer Slaughter tour. Rob [Babcock], Mike [Hamilton] and I are all excited to have someone with killer chops and a deep history with the band on board. We look forward to coming to your town, drinking all your beer and then making fun of your record collection as usual!

"After the Canadian Ritual tour with Black Dahlia Murder, we made the decision to part ways with guitarist Wes Caley, and Bud was the perfect person to step in on lead guitar. I know Wes' new project, Downfall, is currently in the works and will be awesome and we wish him the best. In the meantime, we'll see all your drooling, sweaty faces on the road!"
