South Africa’s slamming Deathcore force Vulvodynia have announced new vocalist Zion Bittenbender, with former lead voice Lwandile Prusent transitioning to guitars to form a six‑piece with Luke Haarhoff, Kris Xenopoulos, Thomas Hughes and Nate Gilbert. The band say the new material is their most devastating yet, with a new record set for 2026.
“We’re very excited to announce Zion Bittenbender as our new vocalist,” Luke Haarhoff says. “We’ve been working with him behind the scenes for a while now, and the new material is sounding like the best music we’ve created to date. We can’t wait for all of you to hear the new era of Vulvodynia.”
Vulvodynia are currently on tour in Asia before joining All Shall Perish on the Europe Slamageddon Tour 2025, including shows in Berlin, London, Glasgow, Milan, Vienna and more through November and December.
