LONDON MAY
Drummer Extraordinaire LONDON MAY Exhumes 15 Killer Cuts From His Vault
Featuring Unreleased Tracks by SAMHAIN, DAG NASTY & CIRCLE JERKS!
London May's "Devilution:The Early Years" on Cleopatra Records is a deluxe CD/LP that chronicles the first 12 years of London's illustrious career behind the drum set and contains 15 remastered tracks from 11 different bands, all featuring London's signature bashing. Beginning with his earliest studio recordings at the age of 14 through his pioneering days with Discord Record's Reptile House and Dag Nasty, The Early Years also includes his bloody era with Samhain and even a never-before-heard audition tape with the legendary Circle Jerks. A punk drummer's journey, Devilution has it all and everything in between. Along with rare photos and ephemera, extensive liner notes, and a forward by Bonnie "Prince" Billy, Devilution: The Early Years is a loud, exciting trip down memory lane for a passionate musician who's busy feet barely touched the ground during the 1980's hard core explosion.
Available on CD and vinyl! In stores 7/1/16 or direct from Cleopatra Records:

Additional Bio info:
May was born in Raleigh, North Carolina, USA, but raised in Baltimore, MD. He is best known for playing drums (and subsequently bass) in Glenn Danzig's post-Misfits/pre-Danzig punk/goth band Samhain, which he joined in the summer of 1985. May played on the group's best known release, November-Coming-Fire as well as Samhain Live '85–'86, the bonus tracks on the 2001 re-release of the band's last album, Final Descent, and the band’s career spanning “Box Set” collection. He re-teamed with Samhain in 1999 and has since performed with the group on all their numerous reunion tours, including the DANZIG LEGACY TV SPECIAL.
During his long and continuing music career he has also recorded and performed with such popular artists as Lol Tolhurst (of The Cure), Tiger Army, Son Of Sam, Dag Nasty, Paul & Jeremy Stacey (of Oasis/Noel Gallagher,) Ian Mackaye, Steve Albini, Lee Ving (of Fear,) Pat Smear (Of Nirvana, Germs,) Exene Cervenka (of X,) Ron Emory (TSOL,) Cold Cave, Reptile House, Jackass star Chris Pontius, artist Doug Aiken, Rikk Agnew (of Christian Death and Adolescents,) and Distorted Pony. In 2017 London joined the pioneering US Black Metal group, Ritual. In 2020 London began drumming for Industrial legends MINISTRY. He now performs with SYMBOLISM.
London’s “greatest hits” drumming anthology “Devilution: The Early Years” was released on CD and vinyl 7/1/16 on Cleopatra Records.
