Drummer Nick Barker has joined not one but two new bands. Both Atrocity and Leaves\' Eyes, who already shared several musicians, have recruited the British powerhouse drummer.\"[Vocalist/producer] Alex Krull approached me at the Metal Hammer award ceremony in London last June (2007) and said that he was looking for a drummer that could handle the complexity and savagery of Atrocity as well as the softer, more groove-laden beauty of Leaves\' Eyes, and he thought I could be the right man to do both jobs. I had some prior commitments and obligations to fulfil at that time, but we spoke over the Christmas period and arranged for me to come to Stuttgart and audition; everything was fantastic both musically and from a social and personal aspect. I absolutely love the diversity of both bands.\"
Nick Barker has previously played with Cradle Of Filth, Dimmu Borgir, Testament, Lock Up, Burujeria and Benediction among others.
