Bassist Jay James left Bullet For My Valentine back in February, their bass player since 2003. Finally this weekend the Welsh band have announced his replacement (see photo, second from the left) on social media with just a simple Tweet:

#NoWayOut coming up. Until then – please welcome our new bass player Jamie Mathias! @BFMVJAMIE

“No Way Out” is the lyric video that the band posted this weekend from their upcoming album, Venom, due out August 14th. The band will hit the road before the release of their fifth album with Slipknot, Lamb of God, and Motionless In White in July, as part of Slipknot’s “Summer’s Last Stand” tour.
