Today, the music by SQUEALER <\/strong>is a melting pot of several Metal elements which has enhanced through the years, i.e. an unique and diversified mix of Melodic Thrash Metal (which nowadays builds the foundation of each new SQUEALER<\/strong> song), groovy Rock stuff and, of course, the still obvious Heavy, Speed & Power Metal influences.<\/p>\n After the release of eight studio albums and lot of career highlights such as performances at the big Summer festivals, support shows with Motörhead<\/strong>, Rage<\/strong>, Blind Guardian<\/strong> and many more, five-figured albums sales for the album Under The Cross<\/strong><\/em> followed by a tour with their big heroes Judas Priest<\/strong> the group faced a lot of deep hits as well. One of the biggest defeats was the accidental death of singer and founding member Andreas „Henner“ Allendörfer in the year of 2005. After the angry and very aggressive album Confrontation Street<\/strong><\/em> (2006) which featured Gus Chambers (Grip Inc.)<\/strong> on vocals, SQUEALER just found back to their common theme in the year to 2008 with the release of the CD The Circle Shuts.<\/strong><\/em> Numerous changes in the line-up made it almost impossible to continue to work in a professional manner. So, <\/em> SQUEALER<\/strong> was put on hold for a while to take their time to search for a suitable line-up and only to continue occasionally with playing music in a smaller set-up.<\/p>\n Now, in late 2017, the band is back full force and with a powerful line-up which just was completed last year. SQUEALER <\/strong>now consist of Lars Döring<\/strong> (guitars), Michael Schiel<\/strong> (guitars), Sebastian Werner<\/strong> (vocals) and Manuel Roth<\/strong> (bass). The band has started to perform live again in 2016 and since then played several gigs and festivals (incl. 70000 Tons Of Metal) with the new and convincing band constitution.
