Furthermore, WORMED recently announced that V-Kazar (Gabriel Valcazar) has joined the ranks of the technical death metal formation as their permanent drummer, after the tragic passing of drummer G-Calero.

The band comments: “We want to share some great news with you. We’re very happy to inform you that V-Kazar (Gabriel Valcazar) is joining WORMED as our new drummer! Gabriel is an awesome and talented drummer; just from the first rehearsal we were completely impressed with his amazing skills and technique. For those of you who don’t know, he also does impeccable work drumming in Ernia and Aposento, among other projects. We see him as a promising new talent in the scene! This guy is superb, and we’re really proud of having a good drummer, as well as a great person, join our ranks.”

In V-Kazar’s own words: “It’s extremely humbling to be a part of WORMED after so many years of being a fan of their music. Performing their material is no easy task, but I will do my best to live up to their legacy and Calero’s memory. I can’t wait to share the stage with them! Stay Wormed!”
