A snippet of a re-recorded version of the BURNING POINT track “All The Madness”, featuring Nitte on vocals, is available for streaming below.

Ahonen, who had handled vocals and guitar for BURNING POINT since the band’s inception, last year decided to step down from the singer position and continue playing guitar for the group.

Said Nitte in a statement: “These guys are awesome and the music, just great! I love all the BURNING POINT songs!

“I’ve been away from the world of heavy metal for a while now, but now with these guys, I am back!”

Vänskä quit BATTLE BEAST in August 2012 via an e-mail in which explained that she would focus on her family life. She has since been replaced by with Noora Louhimo.

Nitte rejoined BATTLE BEAST on stage on March 18 at Nosturi in Helsinki, Finland to perform three songs: “Victory”, “Show Me How To Die” and “Enter The Metal World”.

BURNING POINT‘s last album, “The Ignitor”, came out in June 2012 via Scarlet Records.
