Additional notes:
Evildead reunited in 2008. According to Rob Alaniz the band plans to record a 3 track promo in the near future.
The band was formed by Juan Garcia upon the breakup of his previous band, Agent Steel. Upon the reformation of Agent Steel, Juan brought Karlos Medina with him. After the demise of Evildead in 1995, Juan Garcia, Karlos Medina and Dan Flores formed the Band Terror that would follow the same vein of Evildead, but with lyrics in Spanish.
The band took their name from the Sam Raimi horror film "The Evil Dead."
Recently reunited, the band played and headlined its first show in over 20 years at a small thrash festival named "Thrasho De Mayo" in Los Angeles.
