Oakland, California extreme metal band ALL SHALL PERISH are currently nearing completion of their fourth album and follow up to their 2008 release, Awaken The Dreamers.
Guitarist Ben Orum had this to say about the bands new material: “Guitars, bass and drums are complete for the new All Shall Perish record. This week we wrap up vocals and then mixing begins with Zach Ohren! I have never been this excited about a release. This is going to be All Shall Perish’s finest hour.”
Check out this video of Ben Orum playing his 8 string Ibanez guitar along to some pre-production of the new album:
"It is safe to say this will be one of the most aggressive, epic, groovy records we have ever written,” commented the band recently about the new material.All Shall Perish recently parted ways with original drummer Matt Kuykendall. The group stated at the time, "It's always tough to part ways with a long-time member and friend, but it was absolutely necessary in order to maintain forward progress."
A four-minute video message introducing new drummer Adam Pierce can be viewed below:
The new album will also mark the recording debut of guitar virtuoso Francesco Artusato from Treviso, Italy. Examples of his playing may be found here.
Awaken The Dreamers, the third full-length album from All Shall Perish, sold just under 5,000 copies in the United States in its first week of release to enter The Billboard 200 chart at position #126. The follow-up to The Price of Existence was recorded once again at Castle Ultimate Studios in Oakland with producer Zack Ohren (LIGHT THIS CITY, DECREPIT BIRTH).
