It’s a pretty god damn complicated process to figure out who’s who when it comes to East of the Wall and Biclops, since the two bands have been basically sharing lineups, but now they’ve cleared it up and officially made it all under the banner of the former. Biclops‘ Resentiment, due out next summer, will now be an East of the Wall album, and everything else they do from here on out will be as well. Confusion be gone!

The PR wire has names and places:

East of the Wall is excited to announce its new lineup. Joining the band are guitarist Chris Alfano and drummer Seth Rheam. Both played in the band Biclops with East of the Wall bassist Brett Bamberger and guitarist Kevin Conway. Due to the merging of the two bands? lineups, all music created by the aforementioned collective, along with guitarist Matt Lupo, will be released under the name East of the Wall. This will include the release of the group?s next record, Ressentiment, due out next summer through Translation Loss Records.

With this lineup change, East of the Wall has parted ways with original drummer Mike Somers. The band would like to thank Mike for his outstanding musicianship and hard work since the inception of the band.
