British thrashers EVILE have been confirmed to play at this year's 'Sonisphere' festival at Knebworth in the UK. EVILE are set to join fellow thrashers SLAYER and ANTHRAX at the 2010 UK edition of 'Sonisphere', which takes place from Friday, 30th July to Sunday, 1st August 2010.

EVILE lead guitarist Ol Drake comments: "I remember last year I went to 'Sonisphere' with a friend to see METALLICA. I remember thinking, 'This place is awesome, I'd love to be able to play this festival' - and now we are and we couldn't be happier. It'll be great to play the tent, as it looked awesome last year. See you all at Sonisphere for some thrash!"

EVILE have just finished a North American tour with German thrash legends KREATOR, and are now making their way around North America once again with OVERKILL on the 'Killfest' tour.
