Marco de Groot, who has played with Ordo Draconis, Altar and Blind Justice among others, is Houwitser\'s new skin basher.

The new line-up is rounded out by Richard Gielen (guitar), Stan Blonk (vocals), Ramon Ploeg (bass) and Michel Alderliefsten (guitar).

Houwitser started rehearsing in August and are planning new shows in December.

Houwitser originally formed in 1997, featuring Aad Kloosterwaard on drums. In 2004, after the release of \'Damage Assessement\' the group split up.
