Earache Records reports:

British technical metallers THE BOY WILL DROWN are currently in the studio recording their first ever album.

The band, who recently signed a multi-album, worldwide recording deal with Earache Records, are following in the footsteps of their idols DECAPITATED, having entered Hertz Studios in Bialystok, Poland to record their as-yet untitled debut album.

The band comments: "Drums are all done, just a small bit of editing left to do. They're faster and played harder than in the MySpace tracks prior. The sound that the Hertz bros. have got is incredible. Doesn't stop there!!! On the 4th guitar track now and we've also laid down some vocals.

"All in it's shaping up to be one hell of a sound and album. So far we're proper happy with how everything's going and hope it carries on as productively as it has been!"

Having only formed in 2006, The Boy Will Drown are currently regarded as one of the most flamboyant and intense bands in the UK. Playing a vicious blend of technical and experimental music based around grindcore and death metal, the band do everything in their power to mesmerise and pulverise the listener, whilst simultaneously injecting an element of humour, fun and youth into their music.
