NeO drummer, Dan Presland, joins The Ocularis Infernum

After a search lasting almost 12 months, Melbourne, Australia's grindcore death metallers, THE OCULARIS INFERNUM have announced that Dan Presland will be joining the band on drums. 

Crowned the 'Fastest feet in Australia' at the World's Fastest Drummer competition in 2006, Dan Presland is best known for his phenomenal drum skills with the much hyped progressive/extreme/melodic metallers, NE OBLIVISCARIS, who are set to record their debut full length album in the 2nd half of 2008.

Also known for his skills with progressive/tech death metallers, APHOTIC DAWN, Dan Presland is quickly becoming regarded as one of the leading extreme metal drummers to come out of Australia in years.

The Ocularis Infernum will now start working towards a return to the live scene and the recording of their long awaited debut album.
