POSSESSED 2012

Jeff Becerra - Vocals
Emilio Marquez (SADISTIC INTENT) - Drums
Robert Cardenas (AGENT STEEL, COFFIN TEXTS) - Bass
Kelly McLauchlin (DIABOLIC, UNHOLY GHOST, PESSIMIST) - Guitar
Daniel Gonzalez (NAILSHITTER, OCCISAS) - Guitar

In a interview with MetalTitans.com, McLauchlin said POSSESSED plan on a new studio album: "We have music and basic song structures for three songs written so far. We want to take our time and craft songs which will definitely sound like classic POSSESSED. The plan is to record an EP/demo, which we will shop to labels, and then do the full-length. No word on any release date, as we are still in writing mode. We are holding off playing any shows until the end of the year. I expect we will enter the studio sometime early 2013."
