He joined the British death metal band\u00a0Bolt Thrower\u00a0in 1988. Before that he drove the backline of the band. He stayed with Bolt Thrower until 1994, after the recording of\u00a0&#8230;for Victory. He left the band mainly because he wanted to go back to university and finish his degree.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Willetts rejoined as a session vocalist for the recording of&nbsp;Mercenary&nbsp;and left shortly thereafter because of financial reasons and lack of commitment. In the meantime, he got a job as a salesman of insurances besides other jobs. He resides in Solihull. Rumours persisted he had returned in 2001, but he did not. However, in November 2004, he actually did rejoin Bolt Thrower after the departure of&nbsp;Dave Ingram. Willetts now has a degree in Cultural Studies from the Birmingham University.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Willetts also did some guest vocals with UK punk band&nbsp;<strong>Doom<\/strong>&nbsp;on their Peel Sessions album and UK death metal band&nbsp;Benediction&nbsp;on two accounts; one on \u00ab\u00a0Jumping at Shadows\u00a0\u00bb which appears on&nbsp;The Grand Leveller&nbsp;and&nbsp;Dark Is the Season; the other on \u00ab\u00a0At the Wrong Side of the Grave\u00a0\u00bb, which is a cover of&nbsp;The Acc\u00fcsed&nbsp;and appears on the&nbsp;Transcend the Rubicon&nbsp;album.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Karl is a death metal vocalist from England.
