ATTENTION AUSTRALIAN METAL FANS: Cessation Of Life will be recording 3 songs from the Legendary Australian Rock Band "Black Alice" for release in Australia later this year. Stay tuned for more info on this!

More info on Chris Violence recording with the band Death Benefit: "I have heard the final mix and I think it sounds great. All the members of Death Benefit have told me they are very happy with the cut and in the end, that's what's important. I really think Metal fans every where are going to dig this new song 'The Conscience Of The King'. I have also heard the rest of the album and it sounds very modern and powerful. I think all the guys in Death Benefit should be very proud of the effort they have put out and think the fans will really like it." - Chris Violence
